Took the family out to Bob Evans, went to pay the bill at the cash register where they have their tiny little country store and lo and behold! They had like 6 racks of them cause nobody wanted it, lol. Most of the other candy on the rack was gone, but they had poo poo tons of circus peanuts…I grabbed my prize!




Pretty loving good! Love the banana flavor. Has a nice chewy squish to it, A+ would buy again! Maybe Bob Evans is the S tier of circus peanuts candy, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality.

Maybe it's just the photo, but the label looks like it's covered in the grime of many years of sitting on a shelf

That is a pickled herring coctail with lumpfish caviar and an egg yolk.

You know what... Absolutely would

Edit - I managed to find the recipe and now I want to make/photograph/eat it.

My regional grocery store chain has a section of the candy aisle dedicated to old-tyme candies—circus peanuts, Mary Janes, chick-o-sticks, the Blackjack/Clove/Beeman’s trio, necco wafers, nik-l-nips, bit-o-honeys, all the stuff people hate. I like them all though, the only candy that I think is cursed are dots/crows/jujubes but only because they get jammed in my teeth worse than anything else.

I bought my dad a pack of Beeman's for Christmas one time but just because we bonded over the movie The Right Stuff when I was a kid and there's a recurring bit between Chuck Yeager and his buddy Ridley about loaning him a stick of Beeman's. He wrapped it in ribbon and made an ornament out of it.

Dots are amazing, the trick is that you don’t fully bite down but kind of knead them repeatedly between your molars until they get warm and soft enough to push through with your tongue against your palate and separate into swallowable pieces

I realize I may not be conveying the appeal with that description, haha

So the guy likes to gently caress candy with his tongue, nothing wrong with that. dotilingus.

Her avocado must have been underripe if she could peel it like that though.

Around here, Hass avocados are sold significantly underripe to extend their shelf life, and pretty much no one I know seems to realize that you’re supposed to let them ripen before use. First time the Missus and I made guacamole for a party, everyone thought we were loving wizards.

Maybe I'm not reading it right but it seems like you're supposed to add the yellowjackets, not the nest itself.

Most places around here offer hollandaise on za and one time I ordered it by accident. I found out that baked hollandaise tastes like hot buttery mustard cream and it actually made me physically ill lol.

Yeah, I don't know why they would puree the actual nest with it-- the original recipe is pretty clearly instructions on how to collect just the grubs. Outside of the difficulty of digging up a wasp nest (seems like a lot of work for not much food! but I guess in times of starvation you do what you must), it seems like a pretty standard protein source. The cicada recipe below isn't that different, except the cicadas obligingly dig themselves up.
