I know, but they aren't really "candy," and even if they were, they are gross.

You may be right about them not being candy, but they’re far from gross. If they made them back in the 1800s when you were younger you’d like them as much as I do.

I dont know that theyre gross. I mean, ill eat a fruit roll up, but its not something I reach for. If you want a fruit snack type option everyone knows you go fruit by the foot.

Now you have me siding with the spicy cinnamon candy lover Toe. NotLikeThis

I wouldn't slap it out of your hand if you were eating it, though - I'm not from Philadelphia, so I don't have a bunch of weird, freakish rules about food. I just wouldn't eat them.

This is a great post, Toe - I'm very proud of you. But they are ****ing gross.

Gushers are a top tier childhood snack too.

Same thing.

They’re number 1 on my list. Generational talent.

There's a candy Factory, about 40 miles east of Springfield Missouri. Pretty cool place

Time sensitive question, how long do I pop 2 “slices?” Of Texas toast in the oven? My wife saved the last two but chucked the box to make room in the freezer.

I would guess 6-8 at 400 or 425, then flip for 2-3. Can probably Google it if you know the brand.

You would know better than I would (not sarcasm), but I would probably microwave it a bit to take some of the freeze off - it may help it cook more evenly in the oven.

Saw this late, wasn’t sure of the brand. I popped it in at 400 for about 10 minutes. You were spot on. Came out great

So this is kinda short notice but i wasnt sure what my allocations would be.

For those interested, I can grab 2019 and 2017 black tuesday bottles with my Bruery allocation today. They're 30 a piece, ~19.x% Bourbon barrel aged stout, worth every penny, in my opinion.

Ive got 1 bottle of 19 left available, and up to 5 bottles of 17. Please let me know ASAP as i have to submit the order soon.

@Peter Man @Cody Webster @JojoTheWhale @Rebels57 I feel bad, as im sure i'm missing a few people here

edit: silly me - @dragonoffrost as well

Sorry man didn't see this in time. Thanks though!

 

[Starat327]

Sorry man didn't see this in time. Thanks though!

I maxed out on the 19 and bought a spare 17. when I go down and grab it in a few weeks, Ill let you know if theres anything leftover.

I just got shown yet again why I should n very attempt to cook ANYTHING myself. I found an "easy" recipe to make Halloween bark where you basically melt candy chips in the microwave and spoon them over pretzels while they're in liquid form. I dump a bunch of sea salt caramel chips in what I thought was a microwave safe bowl, throw it in the microwave microwave for thirty seconds. Nothing much seems to be happening. I put it on for another thirty seconds. Within ten more seconds the bowl cracks in half. I then scoop up as much as I can, which is still hardly melted, and throw it in a saucepan. It STILL doesn't melt but it is now like oatmeal instead. I notice it's starting to burn a little so I finally find a Pyrex disk and scoop everything into there for one last chance. Within 15 seconds the lump started chatting and smoking on the top, smelling up the kitchen. Easy to make in fifteen minutes my ASS. I thought this would be easier than Pigs in a Blanket but nope, that's one of the few things I've successfully made. I wonder if the salt in the chips interfered with the melting. They didn't have plain caramel chips so I got the closest I could find. I still had white chocolate chips to melt as well!

BOW TO THEM

When I was a youngin’, a friend’s parents took like 15 of us to see a movie for his birthday. It was The Alamo, that shitty version with Billy Bob Thornton, a selection which to this day confuses me for a kids birthday.

So, at the concession, the parents gave us a choice of a drink or snack. Ranking among the worst decisions I’ve ever made, I chose to get Hot Tamales. With no drink. For a 140 minute movie. Let’s just say I remembered the Alamo, alright. Great candy though. Don’t listen to these candy plebs. (Though, I think the true antagonist in this story was the parents. You cheap out for movies and don’t let them get a drink AND a snack? The hell is wrong with you?)

We just loaded up our coats with smuggled food and drinks most of the time. My mom's homemade popcorn was better anyway.
