Thief? Where's my thief?! THIEF!

The existence of oatmeal cookies is all the proof I need that molasses makes *almost* everything better. Except bacon. Bacon makes everything better, so molasses cannot improve upon it. *noms on a handy Bacon Explosion*

note - I can't stand oatmeal that is not in cookie form. QED.

Regarding molasses, I have to brag. I have a bottle of blackstrap sugar cane molasses that was bottled by a great-uncle about 50 years ago. It's about half full. I use it when making treats like gingerbread.

Wow! Look at this topic drift! I'll go with the flow, though....

I know this is all in fun, but I suppose someone should point out that, in general, there is nothing out there that universally "tastes good". There are, of course, several things that a majority of folks enjoy, of course.

This whole business reminds me of a story arc in the webcomic Sluggy Freelance, where they tried to find the Ultimate Axiom of Food Perfection. It started with bacon...

All this talk of molasses, I just had to let those of you who didn't already know about how molasses killed 21 people in Boston, back in 1919.

^-.-^

First RetailWorkhorse, and now you. I think I might be starting a food trend here.



Well, while I haven't personally tried it, I've seen people say online that it's pretty tasty. One of the members of Chameleon Circuit evens mentions in one of their songs that it tastes good. So with 11, who knows what he would have preferred?

You're missing out if you haven't actually seen the video where Charlie ate it. Lucky for you I have a link.

Thanks for the link. I hadn't seen that video yet. *watches it*

Okay, that was pretty cool. I loved the look on his face when Fish Custard went from being tasty to being 'eugh!'. I know that experience well through other food combinations.

And Andara, I already knew about the molasses incident in Boston. Just more proof that molasses is evil stuff. It's almost as bad as mayonnaise.

(And I'm sure some of you remember just how strongly I feel about that stuff. )

Any food can kill people, if it is not handled correctly, or if it gets contaminated, etc.

ANY food.
