Every little bit counts

Special K: 'According to the company website, the original recipe calls for the inclusion of the previous day's batch, a graining process that continues to this day. "As such, there's (theoretically) a bit of Leo's very first Tootsie Roll in every one of the sixty four million Tootsie Rolls that Tootsie produces each day."'

The inner beauty of environmental desolation

b1-66er:How's the body?
How's the mind?

Hammerer¹: Body's tired. Mind is good. It's always a spiritual experience to get up into the mountains, pushing mind and body, getting unplugged. Hope you are doing well.

A new type of elbow grease

b1-66er: https://www.thecut.com/2021/07/kraft-mac-and-cheese-ice-cream.html

D4rw1n: The lede paragraph is outstanding 

66: Truly.
Must we challenge God every day?
May well be the greatest opening editorial line in the history of the English language.

D4: So freaking good
I am (literally) still laughing from reading it the first time

b1-67er: The idea is marketing genius, although an obvious nod to the Jones Soda Thanksgiving Dinner collection.

66: It violates every Draconian dietary law I have.
It's also a bent fendered participant of the Dietary Demolition Derby of my two former food loves.
I would absolutely eat a spoon full right now.

D4: Emphasis on Demolition 
"Free samples from an ice cream truck on Union Square July 14, while supplies last."
The author suggests that could be forever
Obviously incorrect. 
This is absolutely my comment the state of humanity: 
That ice cream truck will sell out in a matter of minutes

66: I like your side of the bet better than hers.

Sheridonian: No.
I like ice cream. I like Kraft Mac n'Cheese...
But, no.

***

F3mb0t: Uuuum.  No.

66: SO adventurous!

F3: Ha! Have you met me? I am better than some for trying new stuff, but pretty boring compared to you. That ice cream is not appealing. 
At all.

***

Corporal Math: I thought it was Katy Perry

66: I don't see the difference.

CM: Fair. I enjoy those things equally.

66: I can understand that.
Getting Mac&Cheese into a Shark costume would be a legitimate son of a bitch, though.

Juan: Next up : BBQ flavored iced tea!

66: And at that point all of humanity moves to the next level.

Mr. Crypto: I had goat cheese¹ ice cream the other day, it was delicious. Tangy.
Cheddar flavored ice cream is quite popular (Philippines? Someplace similar), I've never had it.


¹flavored, I think -- not primarily made from goat milk

Slowly considering a statement

Special K: On Jewish fast days, some people say "have an easy fast." Is that appropriate to say to you?

b1-66er: I think "have an easy fast," is not only appropriate; but also a clever and reasoned interpretation.

...ALMOST every waking moment...

b1-66er: What's the weirdest cereal in NJ, you say?
WONDER NO MORE!

Special K: I've been looking for Chocolate Frosted Flakes for a decade.
(Not continuously.)
