I don’t buy them often but I’m a Skor/Heath guy for sure.

I like Zagnut bars, but I haven’t had one in years.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a Zagnut. Now I need to find one.Rush2112 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 3:19 pm Went on a tour of the largest handmade chocolate factory in the US a few weeks ago (it's here in Denver) it was ok, their best confections weren't made in-house (the red chile chocolate truffle had my vote.)
Is anyone else here a fan of the Zagnut? My favourite candy bar. Though I do like the Reeses Take 5 or a 100 Grand in a pinch (Zagnuts are hard to find in these parts.)

My wife went to her super-Christian brother's wedding outside Hersey PA a few years ago. She brought back a case. I didn't have to listen to his bullshit and got candy? Win! WIn!The Sybian wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2024 4:46 pm

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
My sister ships me Rocca bars for christmas or just randomly. I guess it's a Pac NW thing? Anyway, their dark chocolate w/toffee are amazing.
You know what you need? A lyrical sucker punch to the face.

It says on the bottom that there are 115 guests browsing this forum right now. I don't like it. Feels creepy. What the fuck do they want? It can't possibly be for the content!

Just constantly refreshing hoping for a new post in the Relations thread.

Can’t be “real” people so some kind of bots that don’t self-identify (like Google) probably.
Though to what end I don’t know. Maybe the procedures to block spambots work and they’re just forced to read our banal ramblings

They're all coming for Horse's draft preview. They're all staying for the cantaloupe and honeydew talk.
Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I'm OK, bots.

A good discussion would be how to up your condiment game.
I''m going to be making a tomato jam this weekend, where I will be adding real maple syrup instead of sugar.

It's almost always a winner—also makes an excellent variant to an old-fashioned.

Been making Old Fashioneds and Sazaracs lately. That variant sounds worth a try!

One thing I like about watching English soccer is that if the game is scheduled to start at 5:00, it starts at 5:00. Sports in the US (and Canada) never actually start at the advertised time. I was again reminded of this watching the NFL draft. Advertised to start at 5:00 PDT, the first pick went down 20 minutes later. I realize that this is not a big deal or anything, in the big picture, but still…

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
So, the wife had a frustrating hard day and wanted Chinese takeout for dinner. We order and I go pick it up (a big deal as I rarely drive, being blind in one eye and having a bum shoulder). After I return, she opens up the boxes of food. I start loading my plate but I see she is upset, saying “One of our entrees is missing - they gave us an extra rice, so the total box count is right but the entree I especially wanted is missing.” Her hard day is getting worse. I check the receipt and it is in order, so I phone the restaurant and tell them what happened. The guy apologizes and encourages me to come down and get a replacement entree. So, I do. Not happy, but what are you going to do? Mistakes get made. So, pick up the entree, mumble a thanks as he apologizes, and drive home. So, I load up my plate with the hot new stuff. The first rice box is getting low, so I open the other one… but it’s not rice, it’s the entree my wife said was missing! So, now we have two of them. I switch from silently cursing the restaurant to “oh, shit!” My wife is as honest as can be, and she is mortified. She says she is going to the restaurant as soon as they open tomorrow to apologize and pay for the additional entree they gave us. Sheesh.

We don’t eat a lot of mustard. When we do, it’s always Dijon or German. But, my wife was cleaning the fridge and dragged out some old French’s yellow mustard from the back that we bought for a kids’ party years ago. Turns out it expired in 2013. Guess we’ll throw it out.
