I'd give up pizza. But I hope I never have to really make this choice.

Are you OK with the implications of grocery shopping at Wal-Mart?

I don't care if it means spending more, I won't shop in Wal-Mart for anything. Don't like their forcing jobs out of the country, their corporate philosophy or their 'Amway' style of motivation.

At my office there has been an ongoing controversy concerning candy corn. Other then just popping it in your mouth, what is the correct way to eat it. Layer by layer from the top (pointed end) down or layer by layer from the bottom (wider end) up?

Chopsticks vs Fork

Having always been a pretty coordinated individual the, one of the few things that I have tried, but have never been able to master are chop sticks. I have, however, mastered fork, knives, spoons and fingers.

What I miss most:
Saturday morning watching cartoons and heating up a frozen Sarah Lee Rasberry Strudel coffee cake or the cheese danishes.

"THEY" do still make Muncho chips. I love those too. I found them at a local chain grocery and the quick mart in the office building where I work.
You can still get Charelston Chews too. The original big size AND you can find boxes of small, bite-size Chews too. So good. They even make Chocolate Charelston Chews, but I don't care for those as much. No childhood memories with those, I guess. By the way, who is Charelston?

Remember 1,2,3 Jello? It was 3 layers of different textured jelloy stuff; jello, then fluffy jello, then a whip on the top layer. I loved that goodness. It came in orange, cherry or blueberry flavors, as I recall. You HAD to make it in clear glasses so you could see the fun layers. I begged my mom to buy that so I could "cook" it and enjoy it after the dinner she made.
Ah...Good times.

Oh yes I miss Planter's cheese balls, Keebler Tater skins and the Pizzarias. I also miss Monterey Jack cheese flavored Doritos. Chicken Little's from KFC were also great.
