To quote an old or dead comedian (I don't recall exactly who it was, but I want to say W.C. Fields): "Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker!" XD
Actually, I'm a candid fiend - but mostly chocolates. I do like Jujubes and Dots (Ghost Dots -my fave ^_^). However, because of the Sjögren's, I almost always have a sugarfree starlight mint in my mouth :/ Why, oh why can't chocolate do what starlight mints do (keep my mouth from drying out)?! |
Heh. No, I'm not American. I'm Canadian, and I vaguely recall going to a Walgreens once across the border somewhere either in Washington or Oregon. Not totally sure which. Despite living all of two hours or so from the border, I haven't been to the states in a while (unlike my sister and aunt who spend practically every other weekend in Seattle). The last time I was there was for a connection in Chicago on the way home from Sweden. That was 2009.
And just to be that much more annoying, I'm female. ;) I don't know a lot about what can be found her versus the US, but I do know that friends bring things up from time to time, like odd candies or cereal brands that are hard to find up here. I heard rumour that the USA does not have Ketchup chips, or Coffee Crisp. Is this true? |
such lovely avatars here O3o
|
Ketchup Chips and Coffee Crisp? I like the sound of the second thing. I may have tried Ketchup chips before. But, that wouldn't be surprising since I live in Western NY and am only a couple hours away from the Canadian border to Ontario (I live in Rochester). When I go to school in the Fall, I'll be closer.
Morning Asami ^^ |

Only thing is that this place sells their stuff a bit more expensive than necessary, imo. >w> I did take some pictures on my phone to upload and post here, but my phone's giving me issues with allowing me to upload them. =w= |

It's true! America doesn't have those crazy chippies. When your friends pop over - tell them! DOTS! WALGREENS! They are like a dollar a box on sale. Which they usually are. |
Whut? We do too have ketchup-flavored chips! You have to go out to the 'hood to find 'em, though. I've never heard of coffee crisp, though.
|
I've been to this 'hood you speak of - and still never seen them!
|
Maybe it's a southern thing, then.
|
I lived in Florida for a while - that state is backwards land.
|
*thumbs up* Yes. Yes we are.
|
I lived their for ten years... but the weather was killing me. Literally killing me. I have lupus and the worst thing for it is the sun. Activate mine like the dickens.
|
My dad's family lives in Florida. My Aunt and her family are fine, the girls are good girls. My grandmother and my cousin she had custody over when my cousin was younger... ummm... My Aunt's girls are embarassed of my other cousin...
|
I don't typicall eat ketchup chips, just surprised me it was around much down there. Coffee Crisp is a chocolate bar, very light and wafery with mild coffee flavour (usually I don't like coffee flavoured things). Get's crumbs everywhere but I love them. :). There was this whole "how do you like your coffee?" ad campaign around them. It's kinda like a Kit Kat but more crispy, less chocolate.
No worries about the gender things. People muck if up even when I'm not being contradictory. ;) |
ooo I would love to have the coffee crisp. Those sound really good :D

|
Oh! We have those. My grandma gets the strawberry kind most often, though.
|
When I get a job, I would hope to be able to get sweets like those ^^
|
They're not that expensive. I get them at the dollar store. I have to go to Aldi to find the hazelnut ones, though.
|
ooo I love Aldi candy. Though I can't even get that. ^^"
I want to go there and raid the candy that looks good. |
Omg, coffee crisp is AMAZING!!!! How has the USA never heard of it before? D:
|
Because USA sucks with food? :p
|
No ~ we have good food - just not that one. I'm sure we have stuff here that is not in Canadaland.
|
Yeah, I'm sure we do. Just don't know off the top of my head atm ^^"
|
So what sort of foods does USAland have, guys? :0
|
We have food :p
|
Ari, we do have coffee crisp. We call them wafer bars, though, and they come in all sorts of flavors, not just coffee.
|
mmm I love me some wafer bars :D
|
It's almost time for Psych!
|
Watching the food network. I missed Suburgatory tonight, but I'll watch it online, or on Demand if I EVER get the chance to watch tv in the living room while my mom is at work... stupid a-hole who Doesn't even live here or date my mom anymore -.-
Anyway ^^" I'm enjoying watching the food network though :D |
Can't you tell him to bugger off?
|
Nope. He'll just make stupid a-hole comments and get all street-like. I also can't tell mom to tell him to not come over a lot because she'll guilt trip me because she's "gets so lonely when" my dad and I go and leave to hang out with our loved ones and her's is in prison (3rd dwi in 10 yrs). -.- Ugh.
he also eats us out of house because he's a pig. |
I wouldn't stand for that crap. I don't understand how your mom doesn't think she's worthy of someone who is going to take care of her. Not her taking care of him.
|
I dunno. I'm going for, my mom is selfish and all that matters is she has a friend over to keep her company since her boyfriend is gone for making a stupid mistake.
|
Your mom should really keep better company. When do you get to move out?
|
I don't know. It all depends on when my dad's girlfriend's daughter moves out. Who knows. I know she's slowly moving her stuff out little by little.
If I'm still here in the summer, then it would be when I start school in the Fall. |
Well - I'm sending you great safe move out vibes. *twiddles finger to her forehead*
|
Thanks :)
He better not have eaten the rest of the pierogies... If there are none left when I go cook dinner in a little bit. He will hear it from me. -.- |
Pierogies! I will give him the what for if he ate those - so freaking tasty.
|
Oh I know. The reason I'll flip is he eats soo much freaking food when he's here. He's always eating and he eats big portions. I don't eat a lot and it's rude of him to eat us out of house. Especially since we do not have the money to always get food.
