settle down!

discovered a fabulous new site today. ich liebe das krauten.

it reminded me of this one:
http://www.thewvsr.com/adsvsreality.htm
i don't often eat prepackaged meals- never frozen shit- but i am also one to eat soup cold, out of the can, with a fork, so anything i have to say about culinary matters is bullshit and should be treated as such. but i work with a lot of people (that is, everyone there) who rely on microwavable sustenence. things i have noticed over the years:
-i have only met one person who takes her food out of the package after it is cooked and plates it, as if it is an actual meal
-guys use paper towels as plates far more frequently than womenfolk (especially true with microwave burritos)
-most common: guys- aforementioned burritos, the huge flaccid ones seen in the convenience store cooler. doctors- annie's naturals. chicks- smart choices/healthy whatever/lean cuisine- ALWAYS the "diet" variety.
what do i eat at work? whatever candy is there. yesterday there were jelly bellies. i fucking LOVE those- they are on the list, along with (dry, unadulterated) cinnamon toast crunch and (dry, unadulterated) golden grahams, of foodstuffs i am helpless over. the best jelly bellies: coconut, popcorn (original and caramel), root beer, kiwi, the green one with the blue flecks that tastes like freshly mown grass, blackberry, oh what am i saying? they are ALL delicious and extraordinary in their teenily-encapsulated flavor bombast; it is easier to cite the ones i always toss: peanut butter, most of the fruity ones, chocolate, tutti-frutti, peppermint. the ugly colors.

i got on a tangent there.

am now distracted by the odd look of "tangent"; it looks misspelled. tangant? no.
