WTF is "fluff"? Sounds like the stuff I occasionally have to pick out of the vacuum rollers! :unsure:

It's not what I pick out of my bellybutton, if that's what you're thinking.

In the case of what my sainted mother in law makes every year at Thanksgiving and Xmas, it's basically Cool Whip with pistaccios incorporated somehow, with pineapple chunks and marshmallows.

What's the deal with avoiding a delicious natural product and then trying (but failing miserably) to replace it with some foul blend of vegetable oils and chemicals? :confused:

We invented those oils and chemicals to avoid eating stuff that tastes like crap. :)

If I may quote the great philosopher Jay Cartwright:

Are you bent? It's just that you sounded really bent just then.

I don't get why Americans think it is normal to serve dessert on the same plate as the main course and eat them both at the same time as the gravy mixes with both. Fruit salad? Marshmallows aren't a fruit, custard isn't a fruit, that weird mixture of creams are not fruit.

Parking spaces!!!! Those ones that are angled and force you to park nose in! I hate backing out of a parking space! It's easier and safer to reverse in IMO. Yet hardly anyone here does it. In fact my wife goes mad when I do it. She hates people that reverse into parking spaces as she has to wait to long for them to park apparently LOL

There is a long list of foods in America ruined by the addition of marshmallow. :sick:

Going back to cars/trucks poking out a bit...this time at junctions when trying to go left, so you can't see around then when you want to do right without being half on the road yourself.
