I'm plagued by pop questions this eve. What flavor is cola? Which roots do they use for root beer? Why is vanilla soda called "cream soda?"
@TraderZed I was joking about gifts. I already have what I need most - an awesome community of loving people. Did you ever get kittehs?
@MacksMind yes we eat literal tons of peanut butter, creamy and crunchy. It very likely could be considered a staple food for many in the US
@cazm "Fluff" is marshmallow cream. A Fluffernutter is a peanut butter and marshmallow cream sandwich. Mols does not want.
@toonmariner Hmm, good question. I mean, there's still all that bitterness left over from the little tea party we had in Boston . . .
Musing whether we have any "cultural" spreads in the US akin to marmite or vegemite. Fluffernutter? Nah.
@cazm I believe it's Dean Edwards who knows the best brands of tea to buy in London.
Since you *of course* all have me at the top of your holiday lists, FYI, please know that I am always delighted with gifts of tea. ;)
@cazm ooh, an emergency parcel from the UK? That has a nice holiday sound to it. Any decent Assam will do.
@sharon777 Assam is a lovely black tea from India, yes. Lipton? In the US? You need at least three tea bags per cup and even then, meh.
Running out of Assam tea and they discontinued the brand. Savoring this cup as if it were the last on earth.
@herko LOL! Private Molly time? Maybe I should have started one of those phone lines or private chat lines instead ;)
I'm in Tucson where it's about 40f. Remember, that's 50-70 degrees less than what we've been used to here. And it's a dry cold! lol
