Let me tell you about Entenmann's. FUCK them and the horse they rode in on. One of the best products they ever made was the "Iced Chocolate Chip Cake". It was a white cake loaded with yummy chocolate chips topped with a mocha frosting and powdered sugar. One of the best items they ever created. They discontinued the item about 18 months ago. I got on the phone with them and asked why the hell they did that, and they refused to answer why. So fuck them. And by the way, a big fuck you goes out to Hostess, who out of nowhere during the pandemic discontinued their Suzy-Qs. I actually got an answer on that one when speaking to their CS team. Q. "Why did you discontinue Suzy-Qs"? A. "During the pandemic we discontinued the 8-pack box, and stuck with single servings. Eventually we phased that out as well." Q. "So why did you stop it all together?" A. "We could not keep up with demand". ---------------------- So let me ask you, dumbass. If a demand for your product is so great, why the fuck do you DISCONTINUE THE PRODUCT?!?! DON'T YOU DO WHAT YOU CAN TO ASSURE YOU CAN MEET THE DEMAND? Just inconceivable. Communists. Bring back the International Baking Company who knew how to make this shit.
Remember that well. Not anymore. Couldn't pay me to eat that garbage anymore. A dozen ingredients, at least, for a donut. Taste the same waxy fake flavor a week or two later out of the cabinet or fridge. Fack outta here.
The one thing they still have going for them is their soft choc-chip cookies. Those never get old. And they still taste buttery, somehow! I recall Adam Richman hosting a show about them recently. Hmmm. I'ma see if I can find it. Edit: Ahh, it was a Modern Marvels. Fun stuff.
Tighter social controls. For a start, you won't get big anti-war protests from your own populace. Then, there are other aspects such as panic buying and all kinds of pandemonium... Cats and dogs playing together...
The worse, I hate soft cookies. lol And sorry but butter doesn't make the ingredients list: Ingredients Sugar, Milk Chocolate Chips [Sugar, Chocolate Liquor, Cocoa Butter, Skim Milk Powder, Butter Oil, Soya Lecithin (An Emulsifier), Vanillin (An Artificial Flavor)], Bleached Wheat Flour, Wheat Flour, Palm Oil, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Wheat Starch, Water, Eggs, Soybean Oil, Whey, Modified Cornstarch, Salt,. Baking Soda, Guar Gum, Artificial Flavor, Carob Bean Gum, Caramel Color.
FYI. The unified resolve of the British against the Germans in WWII is not forgotten to me and I didn't intend it to be a comparison. Very different situation with the Chinese. The Govt is supressing the people to their own nefarious end. Thanks for letting me pull my foot out of my mouth.
I didn't quite quite follow too well where you were going with it. I thought that perhaps you meant that the Chinese citizens will weather the lower quality of life much better than Americans if hard times are upon us. But I wasn't quite sure what you meant by the Chinese executing their offensive. Was this Taiwan related?
True. It would be a better world if they (and other super powers) minded their own business and took care of their long list of domestic issues. Instead, like the Chinese, they keep pouring money around the planet to exercise their control over others and their resources.
