noahgibbs: Me and my teddy bear at Karaoke after a day of RubyKaigi in HIroshima in 2017 (Default)
[personal profile] noahgibbs
Lethalicious snack food of the day: butterscotch chips. Checking the ingredient list, you discover that they're just a big wad of sugar and oil and artificial flavor with (I think) some miniscule amount of flour added as a binder.

My mother was a really remarkably good cook and could do a lot of very complicated pastries and things. So I'm sure it secretly drove her to apoplectic rage that my favorite dinner was spaghetti (the dry kind, like) and my favorite cookies were the kind you make by melting butterscotch chips, mixing with chow mein noodles and blopping them down onto a cookie sheet.

Well, okay. Semi-secretly drove her to apoplectic rage. She still never specifically admitted it :-)

I was a kid. What can you do?
