Am I the only one who...

How many different sandwich cracker flavors are there? Plus those don’t use normal sweet peanut butter, and the cheese flavor is not very strong.

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t think PB and cheese is gross. But it’s not the same.

That’s a toughy, as companies all over the world make sandwich crackers, but the Lance Company makes 14 different flavors, Keebler has at least 7.

The Keebler varietyis 8% sugar - 3 grams per 39 gram package (6 crackers). Any sweeter and it would be a pastry! As to the cheese flavor, real cheddar chees is the next ingredient after sugar. Estimating from the calcium content, I’m going to say about 1 gram of cheese per package. You could approximate this by slicing your cheese thinner before putting it on your PB sanwich.

I’m pretty sure you are a PB & cheese hater from way back. :wink:

I really enjoy factual arguements about nothing. Probably way too much.

Spam-flavored macadamia nuts?! Who knew such a thing existed?

Scary that those godawful Cheese & PB crackers are even less popular than that.

I know this is getting way off topic, but I just can’t help but wonder what got into anyone’s head, to take perfectly delicious macadamia nuts and make them Spam-flavored.

I could have even understood Spam-flavored peanuts, because (on the scale of nuts, at least) peanuts are pretty much a bulk item, while macadamias are more of a pricey delicacy. It’s why one would take one of the tastier (and pricier) nuts out there, and Spam it, rather than peanuts or something else relatively common, that makes my head spin. If you didn’t want macadamia-flavored macadamias in the first place, why would you start with them when creating a Spam-flavored nut?

I like wind chimes, as long as they’re not too loud. They should be background noise level.

I don’t eat enough ice cream these days to think much about toppings, but honey on ice cream sounds good.

Those peanut-butter-and-cheese snack crackers are an abomination before the Lord. I’ve got nothing against snack crackers in general, but even without considering the peanut butter, those radioactive orange cheddar-flavored crackers are an offense against cheddar’s good name. And I can’t imagine putting PB on a decent slice of cheese. I love PB (eating it straight from the jar is a frequent between-meal or bedtime snack for me), and I like cheese. Separately.

And I cut my fingernails and my interior toenails with cuticle scissors. (As I’ve aged, the toenails on my big and little toes have gotten too hard to cut with cuticle scissors, so I use clippers on them.)

Cuticle scissors have several advantages over clippers:

  1. You get a more precise cut;
  2. You can cut a nail in one smooth motion instead of 2-4 clips; and
  3. You don’t make that irritating noise that nail clippers make. In fact, they don’t really make any noise at all.

You could probably approximate the taste profile somewhat better, but that still wouldn’t make it the same thing. My peanut butter would be a lot wetter than the stuff they use in those crackers, and baked-in cheese tastes different from fresh uncooked cheese, and bread is much thicker and softer and less wheaty tasting than crackers. So…not even remotely the same thing. Of course, not being the same thing as those cheese-peanut butter crackers is a Good Thing. Those things suck.

Hawaii, where macadamias are plentiful, has by far the highest consumption rate of SPAM in the US. It’s even on the menu at local McDonald’s and Burger King restaurants. It’s only natural that the 2 delicacies would meet (like PB and cheese!).

You have opened yourself up to the following devastating logical argument:
:stuck_out_tongue:

I assumed everyone liked wind chimes until my wife griped about our neighbor’s.

She also gets annoyed by the sound of trains far off in the distance, and (I can only assume) by beautiful sunsets, delicious home-cooked meals and unexpected windfalls of enormous sums of money.

Nope, you’re not alone. I have done/do all those things with the only variation being I prefer maple syrup on my vanilla ice cream. Manuka honey is also really good if you can find some.

A set of those tubular bell type wind chimes were my first Father’s Day present, and the included card said that the Balinese believe that wind chimes help drive out evil

Looks upthread.:slight_smile:

  1. Well, they help me tune out the jukebox in my head, so I appreciate them sometimes.
  2. That’s not strange at all.
  3. Umm, just because people eat something doesn’t mean they like it. We have free cracker sammich packs at work. The last ones to disappear before they reloaded are the peanut butter on toastchee (first to go: “cream cheese and chive” on captain’s wafers) . OTOH, I prefer my mac n’ cheese from a box, the way god intended it. Eat what you like. If others don’t like it, more for you!
  4. Since I cut mine with the blade (which I have learned disturbs some people), you’re probably doing just fine.
