the 3:00 hour cravings came early today, and at 2:30 i hoofed it to the 7-11 for a treat. i came back with TWO treats! a payday and a box o junior mints. since i had junior mints this weekend at the movies, i decided to enjoy the payday first. mmm mmm sweet, salty, crunchy, chewy. i love foods that give you a full range of textures and tastes all at once. if only there were different temperatures involved as well. (for this reason, the taco is one of the most perfect foods: warm, savory meat and cheese, cool, sour sour cream, crunchy cool lettuce, cool tomaotes, hot crunchy shell)
anyway, i finished up my payday and saw writing on the inside of my wrapper. thinking maybe i had won something, what i don't know since i was too exctied to eat my payday that i didn't really examine the wrapper, i peered in for a closer look before tossing it in the trash. and on the inside wrapper read:
"candy is a treat. please consume in moderation.""
WHAT!!!?! sweet jesus even my candy bar wrapper is telling me not to eat like a fat cow.. for some reason, i was insulted that my candy bar was telling me to slow it down with the sweets. i mean really, it's one thing for cookie monster to change his stance on cookies, saying they're a "sometimes" food, but a candy company telling me to consume in moderation.
EFF YOU!
so now my box o junior mints just sits on my desk, sadly wondering why i'm neglecting it.
