Re: Peppermint Products Must be Stopped

I love everything mint, peppermint sweets are amazing.
 
Eggnog products must be stopped

Um, yeah...

So, you know, it seems like there are more and more eggnog lattes, eggnog-flavor packaged coffees and creamers, eggnog cookies and donuts, not to mention endless brands of mediocre eggnog.

The specialty candy stores have various confectioneries made with eggnog, and the craft cocktail bars bust out the mixed drinks with a dash of eggnog.

And then there are eggnog-scented candles, and so on.

Thoughts?

Re: Eggnog products must be stopped

My thought is that there are enough of these threads already and the joke has gotten old rather fast.

Somehow my thread has been re-nakmedand become a catch-all for people's knock-off parodies. It has litterally morphed from the original topic to any disliked food.


This is your brain on pumpkin spice.

This is your brain on pumpkin spice.

I might have to litterally be re-nakmedand in order to escape the pain your witty insults about brains have caused me.

By your own admission the point (if you can call it that) of your stupid thread which had already dragged on way too long was over with, and it was being kept alive on life support. Then it started spawning other stupid parody threads. So they got merged. Deal with it.

It's finally over. The wave of pumpkin spice products has ceased. Now all that remains is the lingering marshamallows, cupcakes, and other pumpkin spice products that barely sold and are just sitting there.

Will it be like last year where one of two of them sat there until Halloween rooled around again? Only time will tell.

Now the delicious wave of peppermint products are starting to come in, incuding, I hope, the peppermint marshmallows.
 
Since the peppermint thread I commented in was merged into this one, I had to go back and read everything before it. A few comments:

1. Jalapeno (and cheese) cornbread is very good. If you haven't had it and it seems odd, just think of it as a different type of nacho - cornbread isn't *that* far removed from tortilla.

2. Jalapeno JELLY BEANS were *also* delicious, and if *that* seems odd, bear in mind that peppers are fruit. I curse Jelly Belly for introducing them to me and then promptly ceasing to make them.

3. *Of course* Ginger Spice was sexy - "Sexy Spice" was her unofficial alternate name back when the Spice Girls were a big deal.

4. "Basic bitches" :guffaw:

5. I love eggnog, but it's a little too sweet. So I usually go with a small glass of half-eggnog, half-skim milk. Also, this is the first year I've seen stores offering lactose-free eggnog, so that's cool.

6. How to ruin mini-donuts? That's easy - have some huge company close all the local bakeries that used to bring them FRESH several times a week to the grocery stores, and then replace them with donuts made farther away and packed with BS to try to keep them fresh longer that makes them dry and subtly screws up the flavor. Honestly, though, they're probably doing me a favor: I used to go through a BAG of chocolate Sweet Sixteens once or twice a week.

7. Spambots that can post on topic are going to take over! TrekBBS just won't need US anymore. :wtf: ;)

8. Please do NOT compare the very talented Anne Murray to Justin-freakin'-Bieber. Ever. :evil:

9. If you're ever tempted to eat part of a pine tree, DON'T. Take it from someone who has, when I was a kid. Just open up a bottle of Pine Sol and inhale until you can taste it. Same effect.

10. Reading people wasting time on the Internet by complaining about other people wasting time on the Internet complaining about pumpkin spice is both ironic and funny - and a little sad that they can't see that just because the topic isn't food doesn't mean they're not doing the same thing. :p

11. I just don't understand why peppermint is only a *seasonal* additive for coffee at most places. The peppermint helps to wake me up almost as much as the caffeine!
