Easter Candy is Evil - Page 5

AllyOops! · 03-14-2007, 10:56 PM

I love jelly beans.

You know what else I like? Have you tried those little Russell Stover coconut "birds nests" with the three little jelly bean "eggs" inside? Sometimes the nests are milk chocolate, sometimes pastel green coloured chocolate. I rarely see them, although I know that I've seen them at Hallmark stores. I don't like chocolate very much, but I like those!

This just hit me as funny. Not the kind of posts I expected to follow one another, but then I was derailing a bit.

Yup, that answered my question Alex. I thought of messy smelly bloody fish guts everywhere cannery. I suppose the fish come in alread cleaned and frozen so the messy part was done at sea on the boat.

Just so you know, I'm enjoying talking about fish guts in a candy thread.

I was at the store and saw the Robin Eggs and I said to myself "Just keep moving, nothing to see here". I know that if I picked up the bag, they wouldn't see the light of day the following day.

OU is the largest in the world...but it's on fewer products because it has the most strict standards.

When I worked at the salmon cannery the OU people and the Marines were the most thorough inspections we went through.

So, Alex. Was working in a fish cannery as bad as it sounds?

I've completely abstained from buying Easter candy thus far. This thread is making it mighty difficult to maintain my willpower however.

Cadbury Eggs, I can do without. No major desire for peeps. Robin eggs, however, are an entirely different story. If I find myself in a grocery store today, I just may cave in.

It offends me as a Jew when the Easter candy's not kosher. And why can't people remember to serve the egg nog before, not after, the Christmas ham?
