I just stripped a Three musketeers bar naked.

I used to do this as a kid–peel the chocolate coating off the nugat part-- but never with such success (Staleness seems to be the key to a really effective peel). I now have a somewhat sad, flaccid, rectangle of nugat that I suspect I won’t eat.

I got it from one of those suicide vending machines where all candy bars seem to be jumping off the ledges of a big snackfood apartment building (why are the pretzels, the most fragile resident, always in the penthouse?).

Thursdays just draaaaaag on don’t they?

Inky - strange coincidence - I tend to do that to Three Musketeers bars too. I’ve always had more luck with the “fun size” ones though…my hands get really sticky when I do that to the large ones.

Have you ever tried it with a “Milky Way”?

1. It’s spelled _nougat_.

2. The inside of a Three Musketeers is whipped chocolate, not nougat.

Such…Such…Perversion! Don’t you know there are kids apt to visit this board? There’s enough trouble in this world without you poisoning their little minds! Playing with your nugat indeed! As I’ve always said: To each his own, but if you really want to play with your “sad, flaccid” nugat, keep it to yourself!

I love to peel Little Debbie Swiss Rolls. Also, I try to suck out the frosting so I end up with little cake crepes. Doesn’t usually work.

This thread takes the pre-packaged, single-serving cake!

## I rarely do so in the nude, but I like to eat all the chocolate off peanut butter cups, and then eat the peanut butter last.

It is in fact boomerang shaped! I was holding it by one end, studying the way gravity slowly bent it over. I suddenly turned my head and noticed one of the secretaries in my office giving me an odd look.

I have that effect on people.

I always strip the top of a Twix first, then savor the sweet cookie part last.
