@justin h: I was just thinking, "at least they're not gluten free too!"
I love David Veis' comment! And on this side of the bar, I have to say I hate bartenders trying to upsell me; if I order a screwdriver it's because I want orange juice with a little kick -- I don't need your $12 top shelf vodka in my Minuit Maid.
I have to third of fourth the K-Mart issue. At least the K-Mart LC near me is basically a snack bar. The stand-alone store, though, is actually surprising good (when you figure in value for the dollar and convenience.) They actually make their dough in house in one of those big Hobart mixers, unlike other chains (I'm looking at you, Pizza Hut!) That being said, it does seem like there have been cooking issues with this particular product judging from other reactions on the web.
I hear ya! The pambazo at Siete Luminarias is one of my top 10 dishes in town (St. Louis).
@crispyduck I'm sure the food at Tchotchkes is better!
Those pull-apart wedges reminds me of how Casey's General Store sells their slice:
This bag has a head in it!
Gonna have to try these. I hope they come in one of the smaller bag sizes.
Didn't someone else do retro cereal boxes recently? Or maybe I'm confusing it with some other grocery product.
I think you mean millimeters in slide 8! It still sounds like this might actually work if consumed hot out of the oven in-store.
I used to get awesome Hunan Chicken from a stall in a now-shuttered market. They included straw mushrooms which is something I don't see at most take-out places.
How do you keep the sausage from popping/rolling off the burger?
The 'Mr Pizza Guy' scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High
"Just what in the hell do you think you're doing"
"Learnin' about Cuba, and havin' some food!"
I got some awesome fried pies to celebrate!
@J Guns, and kind of off topic, but I miss Hardee's curly fries, discontinued in 2011 or so. I'm a fan of Rally's fries which are basically a straight version of curly fries. I don't think I've had Jack's curly fries; most of my experience with Jack is in the wee hours of the morning, as it should be!
Is it just me or does the pizza kid on the left look like Drew Barrymore and the one on the right look like Corey Feldman? Yeah, probably just me.
Hey, this post prompted a follow-up on NPR! http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2013/03/11/174021648/sorry-but-bananas-wont-calm-your-caffeine-jitters
Reminds me of wild hickory nuts.
How can Provel not be on the list!?
For some reason I've never bought a bag of combos. It's particularly odd because I buy a lot of gas station food (lot's of roadtrips). Has there been an SE post on favorite gas station foods? Mine has to be QT's Buffalo Chicken roller bites.

It's amazing how non-rediculous the numbers on the 7x7 are, relatively speaking. Applebee's Oriental Chicken Salad (billed as "Fresh Asian greens tossed in a tasty Oriental vinaigrette and topped with crispy noodles, toasted almonds and golden fried chicken.") has 1390 calories and 98 grams of fat, including 1.5 g trans fat. But it's a salad, so it must be healthy! :)
Amaretti cookies!
doo-dads! (also referred to as spap-oop :) )
From The Associated Press:
"Murray Lender, who helped turn his father's small Connecticut bakery into a national company that introduced bagels to many Americans for the first time, has died in Florida. He was 81. Lender's wife, Gillie Lender, tells The Associated Press that her husband died Wednesday at a hospital in Miami from complications from a fall he suffered 10 weeks ago. The couple lived in both Aventura, Fla., and Woodbridge, Conn."
So, I was watching the local news the other day, and their crawler mentioned "fish frys." It looked weird to me, but then 'fish fries' sounds like something akin to BK's chicken fries. And I don't know what it says about me that this bothered me all morning...
I can totally see this happening:

A beautiful day, good friends, and rock'n'roll!
