They just look more tasty. It's all in the marketing

I LOVE them! They're so tasty! (not nasty )

they ARE more tasty!

I don't much care for the cheap caramel stuff and there's a weird creamy sweet one that always shows up on fruit trays here. And I HATE IT!

But, as I said, a caramel or chocolate dip done right is OK. But then it must be served as a dessert option. Not for snacking with the cheese doodles.

Marzipan Candy can suck it too!

Store-brand cheese puffs.

I'm sorry, but generic never gets that Cheeto taste right. Same with other cheese flavored chips.

I'll never forget the moment I bit into one of those thinking it was A)going to be candy and B)was going to taste like the fruit it looked like. I was dead wrong on both counts!

Fried Pig Skin.


Asians love that shit.

A perennial favourite dish to inflict upon guests is the Jello mold with fruits or an assortment of unidentifiable grated vegetables floating about in it.

omg, no it doesn't say "bust a nut" underneath the pic of cornnuts...

but cornnuts, bugles (especially the ranch-flavored ones) and pork rinds = yum. i don't eat cornnuts too often, they make my breath stink.

i love that stuff

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

...and LOL!! @ your sig. Luv that line in the film.

WillyWonka said:

jell-o molds are nasty...i remember in elementary school they'd serve that crap up as dessert a lot of the time.

and that nasty fruit salad stuff, with marshmallows and it's all dyed green or pink or whatever...ewwwww!!!!!

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Is it a corn or is it a nut? I don't care! They taste like burnt salty rocks!

XxAxX said:

Them's fightin words!

Mara said:

that part always cracks me up.

superspaceboy said:

i wonder how they came up with the name "cornnut" anyway.

superspaceboy said:

no man! dried cuttelfish is a popular snack in japan, where i stayed a while. it's salty, delicious, like fish jerky. yummy

also, i love kimchee

XxAxX said:

kimchee, oh man...i almost tried some, but the smell of it stopped me dead in my tracks.

XxAxX said:

EW. that stuff's pure evil. my dad loves it and i can't even stand the smell.

if kimchee makes you ill, don't even go near natto. it's fermented bean paste, goes on top of rice. once you get past the fact that the consistency is a lot like snot, it's really tasty

XxAxX said:

i've heard of natto...and yeah, it does look like snot n'beans.

superspaceboy said:

OMG I love this stuff, I haven't had any since I left Japan, where can I buy it stateside?

XxAxX said:

I tried Salmon Jerky once. It was interesting, but certainly not great for a second round.

superspaceboy said:

Big co-sign on the pork rinds; I was just going to mention those myself.

I remember at this one job I used to work at, the vending machine guy would always put those nasty-ass pork rinds into the machines. I noticed that they never sold, so finally I got pissed and wrote on a post it note, "Please do not put pork rinds in the machine!" I stuck it on the vending machine, and the guy never put them in there again.
