No More Beefsticks!!!!!!!!

After several months the day we've all been waiting for has finally arrived. The vending machine is now completely depleted of beefsticks and they have not been refilled.

Famous Amos


Can't you just taste the beard hair?
I have always been a fan of Famous Amos cookies. They are small, crunchy and delicious. I can't aruge that Amos (above) wasn't a genius. The man was. He knew people loved potato chips a lot more than they loved biting into a whole potato (which is still crunchy, but not nearly as good) and when he saw how successfulyl potato chips were he said "Why not I, Amos, inventer of all things good and right in the world! Why not I as well?!?! INDEED!!!". Seventeen years later mini cookies were born. Delicious miniatures. The year was 1975. Larry Bird was tearing it up in French Lick Indiana, Howard Hughes was crazy as a loon and the Archduke Franz Ferdinand had not yet been reanimated. What a generation.
Some say I live in a dream world. I hope that one day kids can eat even smaller Famous Amos style cookies in the form of a breakfast cereal. That we will have drugs for hair rejuvenation and drugs that can turn people into trees. I hope that one day people stop claiming to be Sean Fanning when they aren't.
Famous Amos was a visionary. That guy essentially built the atomic bomb of cookies. Once it was made there was no going back. This is the really real world.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup
















My prayers have been answered. after several excruciating weeks without Reese's in the 6th floor lunchroom, we now finally have the greatest candy ever invented back. Not only are they back, but I believe we are the only establishment in the greater Boston metro area to have the coveted "Large Size." We are all familiar with the standard 2 pack of Reese's, which is nice but sometimes leaves you craving more. The King Size, whoaaaaa, thats too much delicious chocolate peanut butter goodness for me. The Large Size though, perfect. It is so rare in fact that I had a pretty hard time finding a picture in my google image search. I could only find this one, which is clearly packaging for the European market.

What makes the Reeses' Peanut Butter cup so good. I don't know, but I'm glad to have it back

Skittles - The Insane Cousin of M & M's.


What a day.
Its been several days. Vending has gone haywire. In spite of my request for Payday in exchnage for O'Brien's beef sticks, the beef sitcks were traded for Skittles. Horrible. Not the Skittles, they are all right by me, the fact that my request was not honored. I have decided I will eat only Payday candybars for the rest of my life. Starting now.
Its been years since I've had the pleasure of tasting the rainbow. I forgot how good these things were. Nothing like Horse parts mixed with sugar and food coloring. Delicious.
Also, they come in 5 distinct flavors. I just made myself an Orange-Lime cocktail. Wonderful.
Really, Skittles take all of the good things about good jelly beans and subtract all the bad things and put it in an M & M style shell. Amazing.
Also, for a 2.17 oz bag, it is full. Very full.
I want some Spree.
