AMERICAS FOODS TO BE TRIED UPON ON IMMEDIATE ARRIVAL BY RUBYREDD

WWJE?

BB remember the multiple years when we lived on Nutty Bars? good times

i wish i'd gotten the hostess cupcakes instead :( the pig fat cream in the middle of the twinkie is pretty good, but i don't like how the sponge stuff tastes kind of salty.

xp Dan, I think John is still in the middle of those years.

Mmmmmm hostess cupcakes. WANT

Swiss Cake Rolls are the king

My husband will eat those Little Debbie ones every day if I don't make fun of him about it.

wait there are only 100 calories in nutty bars??????????????

So I could eat like 20 of them and be fine for the day!!!!!!!!!

omg start crunch! i am feeling nostalgic now but i used to get so pissed cause my mom would always buy those instead of something awesome like nutty bars (i think they seemed somehow less bad to her?). they were so freaking sweet and almost molassesy?

when I was a kid, I thought the smell of cilantro was the smell of rabies,

Youu think Jesus is gonna buy this shit?

xpost Eat 20 nutty bars, but don't forget to take a multivitamin or otherwise it's probably Scurvy-land for you, too. And if I had to call you and John both "Scurvy," that would just be confusing.

Maybe you could call me "Rickets"; it wouldn't be accurate but it would be less confusing.

All of this talk of nutritional diseases is reminding me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgayZqbc6Xo&feature=related

I'd like to call you "Beriberi," if at all possible. It would make you sound like a dessert topping.

Somehow I think Dan is fine with that idea.

esp. since I am already a dessert topping

You're probably not going to like the part where I start marketing you that way is all.

My favorite place to get breakfast in Oakland:

hostess cupcakes = A++++++ would eat again. best hostess product consumed so far.

root beer = jesus fucking christ this is the foulest stuff EVER. for some reason i was expecting it to taste like gingerbeer, but i was completely wrong.

butterfinger = A+
nestle buncha crunch = average, maybe even slightly below average. would not eat again.

Butterfinger = junk food of the GODS

yeah butterfinger is pretty much gold

also RR, if you havent worked it out yet:

US Milky Way = AUS/NZ Mars Bar
US 3 Musketeers = AUS/NZ Milky Way

root beer = jesus fucking christ this is the foulest stuff EVER. for some reason i was expecting it to taste like gingerbeer, but i was completely wrong.

ginger beer is better than root beer, but the quality of the latter can vary widely. if you get over the initial objection, you might find you like the good stuff.

no, jordan got me a good brand, it really is just that root beer flavour i hate. even the smell of it grosses me out. it reminds me of cough syrup or something.

YOU GUYS

I FOUND REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP KLONDIKE BARS IN THE GROCERY STORE

FUCKING SWOON

ho hos: awesome

You should do a side by side taste test with Little Debbie Swiss Cake Rolls! I can't have those in the house due to mindlessly eating entire boxes. They don't exactly taste like chocolate, though they sort of look like it.

I need to know from HI DERE - were the peanut butter cups in the ice cream or smashed into the exterior chocolate coating??? OR (OMG) BOTH??!!

It was peanut butter ice cream with a chocolate coating that I think had bits of peanut butter cups crushed into it (I was really too busy swooning from the PB ice cream to do a proper inventory).

i would love that.

root beer = jesus fucking christ this is the foulest stuff EVER.

Also to avoid: vanilla creme soda and (shudder) red creme soda.

ewww wtf is red cream soda?!

try: dr. brown's cel-ray soda.

Early reviews of Reese's Klondike have been positive.

Also, some versions of RCS appear to be "bubblegum-flavored".

ewww wtf is red cream soda?!

Teh, you claim ignorance, yet you spelled it correctly....

red cream soda is fucking awesome, wtf

possibly the only things I miss from MN more than rcs are family and friends

red cream soda is fucking awesome, wtf

right again.

even better - brown cream soda (although maybe this isnt in USA?)

RR, im interested to hear your opinion of dr pepper because to me that tastes like cough syrup too

it makes me think of drinking cotton candy.

thing to try you may have difficulty finding in ca: CHEERWINE.

RR, since you're in the Bay Area, you should try one of our local 'delicacies', the famous and delicious "It's It'

I had a mint or coffee It's It almost every day during high school.

what is that glorious-looking thing

Ice cream between two oatmeal cookies covered in chocolate. (The oatmeal makes it good for you, btw.)

Wait, why is Google on the it's-it? Did GOOG consume so much that they had to buy the company?

no wai!

Whatever's in that can, it's not going to be good.

i am cringing at the thought of what that tastes like. for some reason i'm imagining salty plum-ish beverage.

Spoken as someone who has tried asian snack foods.

i am sure it's much more mountain dew-ish, though.

I think that's just actual Cheetos packed in a drink can - the net weight is 1 1/2 oz. Liquid Cheetos drink would be urgh-bleh-ptttth.

Ah, It's-It -- such a wonderful creation.
