    Do you cohost a show on Siriusxm with John Hein that discusses the joys of eating fast food and other garbage shit you choose to put into your body? I swear your Schtick sounds familiar.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    Huh? I'm not familiar with who that is.
    I don't find anything wrong with enjoying a small treat occasionally. It's not like I'm making a giant meal out of truckloads of candy corn.

    Holy shit. You literally are John hein. Google Howard stern or jump the Shark. Your mannerisms. It’s not a bad thing, He was the creator of the term jump the shark.

    Jump the shark thing was a Happy Days thing to get them ratings as the show was tanking.

    #117 1 year ago

    I'm already seeing the GM monsters cereals as well. I used to get these every year but with the quality control issues and people getting sick from GM cereals, I'll pass.

    I have cut way back on cereal in general and my health has improved as a result.

    I’m pro candy corn.

    Might be the most controversial thing I’ve ever posted online.

    #127 1 year ago

    I despise candy corn - even more when I recently learned the shiny outer coating is shellac, made from a secretion of the Lac Beetle. Yes, you're eating candy made with "beetle juice". I thought surely that was bogus, but: https://tasteforlife.com/living/baby-kids/what-know-about-confectioners-glaze

    Confectioners glaze is used in lots of candy I'm sure, but I choose not to research more... LOL

    If that bothers you, then you probably shouldn't look up where most of our food coloring dyes come from

    Yellow number five mutha effer!!! I was told not to eat the yeLlow part.

    #138 1 year ago

    It was reported yellow # 5 caused cancer back in the late 70s/early 80s. Then a rumor spread about red #5. M&Ms sales suffered so that is why they stopped including red M&Ms in the bag. It was more than 20 years before they put them back in.

    I didn't say I was going to do it... but I wouldn't mind hearing some opinions of people who did. I imagine it would be yum town usa, but probably wouldn't taste anything like a generic cc

    #146 1 year ago

    I bought 2 bags of candy corn over the weekend and have been enjoying it. First time having candy corn in decades. I will be opening the bag with the brown chocolate looking kernels tomorrow.

    #147 1 year ago

    Stay away kiddies. I get all the leftover candy!
