I think I literally tried a tiny, like pin-head sized amount, on the end of a spoon. 

I will say this: soda taxes are bullshit mainly for the reason that the ones that have been implemented have a massive blindspot for other sugary drinks. Particularly certain types of more expensive coffee drinks that are loaded with as much if not several times more sugar than a typical non-diet soda have a funny way…

Any cause? Really?

I tried Marmite once, that shit was soooo salty. I could practically feel my eyes bulge in their sockets as my blood pressure sky rocketed. 

Interesting idea, but also feels like its going to alienate gamers that aren’t into online play as much and/or don’t currently have the internet bandwidth to support streaming games like that. I’m still salty that it seems like every other game that comes out these days has to connect to the internet in some way to be…

My dad loves Good n’ Plentys and would often prank me as a child by telling me they were medicine. Given their distinctly pill like form and color scheme, I’m sad to say I fell for it more than once. 

I can take or leave Twizzlers. The strawberry ones are ok. I like the cherry ones better, but by far my favoritie are the red and yellow lemon and cherry sour filled ones. Those are heavenly. 

Apropos of nothing, a Jolly Rancher story: Once, when I was but a wee slip of a lad, I attended a night time Christmas parade in a nearby small city. A fun time was had by all up until, while sitting perched on my dad’s shoulders, looking at a passing fire truck, I was struck in the head by a Jolly Rancher. And this…

Wait, what? I thought she declared early on, like just about before anybody?

As much as I hate the idea of letting a BS scaremongering story like this gain traction, I kinda think it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world if it was enough to push Beto out of the race. He seems like a nice enough guy but he is literally a blank slate. A person asked him what he would do to keep manufacturing…

Ah, see there’s the rub. I was hoping I could buy one in a store and just try it out in the comfort of my own home. I didn’t realize they’re currently sold exclusively through restaurants. 

I don’t think either of them are in wide distribution yet, probably still in test markets and I’ll be damned if I’m ordering a burger and having it shipped to me. 

I told you fools! You mocked me when I said I ate shrimp shell-on, but now who’s laughing motherfuckers?

Honestly, I have no problem with vegetarian alternatives that own what they are. Prepared right, tofu can be tasty and i like black bean/veggie burgers (well some i do, some are dry flavorless messes). What irks me about ‘fake meats’ is that, texturally and flavor-wise, they just don’t stack up. The texture is always…

That looks wildly unappealing. I’ve just never gotten into the ridiculously large food trend. After a certain point, literally any food item just becomes unweildy and sloppy as hell, especially any sort of sandwich. 

“And the winner is... Mia Marco’s!”

Did you have to have skin grafts done on your tongue as a result of a pizza burn? Do you even know the difference between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns? For reference, 3rd degree burns are severe enough for the damage to go all the way to the bone. 

It doesn’t take a particularly large bite of anything to get lodged. I’ve gotten choked a time or two in my life, and expected to hork up something roughly the size of a hard boiled egg only to find something barely bigger than a kidney bean. Also, she probably took the bite expecting to chew it up, thoroughly before…

Problem is, the McDonalds thing wasn’t a scam or an overreaction. That coffee was hot enough to cause third degree burns and require skin grafts. McDonalds deliberately put out PR spin to make the woman look like a greedy and ignorant doofus to trick the gullible, and based on your comment I’d say they got their…

I’m with you to a degree, but at the same time and much like the infamous McDonald’s coffee case, if these things were hot enough to cause serious burns, then they were way too hot. To me ‘too hot to eat’ means that i’ll probably experience some moderate hotness and maybe might end up with a blister or two. If…
