    Whoa, hold it... That was my GRANDPA that did that.... my dad's dad. He wasnt very nice, and practically shoved it down my dad's throat, as well as his brothers and sisters. Sigh, the farm days...

    How are we supposed to make nugat without nuts. Not to mention marzipan? I would go mad, no mader.

    Sorry, but that made no sence. What is nugat.... and what is this "I would go mad, no mader"?

    I think he means Nougat. BTW, it's pronounced Noo-gar by the country that made it (France I think), so it's not 'Nugget' (that means 'chunk of' something).

    I used to like peanuts. Now I don't. I have a habit of declaring myself to not like something before I try it, and when I do try it, I usually don't like. It's a tried and true method - I get criticised for it, but I am usually vindicated, so I'm okay with the criticism.

    As for now, I suggest we turn out attention to Evilest-Killer-Eating-Sou. I'm sure he has some suss habits, especially as a "straight man" and rebel.

    Dammit, that's one of my favourite lines! GET THEE TO A NUNNERY HAG!!!

    Actually, Fatman, I dare you to say that to Lysa...

    I dare you to hurt yourself really badly. It amounts to the same thing.

    *takes a bite out of the block of marzipan sitting next to the keyboard*

    Yes, we must retain marzipan. My life and sanity, and those of countless others depends upon it. Perhaps I should cut down though - I'm starting to get sugar rushes and I've had my first filling.

    Just what exactly is marzipan? I know there are other names for it - or at least I think there are - but I'm pretty sure I've never had it.

    Well, taking your "nut+milk = turd shake" analogy you made above, Marzipan is basically Shit Paste.

    Take shit, process it into a paste, mix with sugar, mold into amusing shapes, and decorate desserts with it. Or like Ferret, go hardcore and eat it with a spoon.

    I have a sudden desire not to eat it. Which isn't surprising, given my aversion to the Turd Shake...maybe we should offer these foods at our store Milo?

    I don't know man... Turd Shake might be a hard sell, even factoring in a horribly oppressed and goods/luxury deprived Proletariat.

    Don't call it Turd Shake. Call it something like Health Shake.

    Don't tell people turds are in it. Put some finely printed nutritional information, which includes the phrase "mechnically recovered bio-matter" or something.

    Dump a load of carcinogenic flavourings in and people will lap it up.

    Ha you are fools fools. Marsipan is the best thing in the world. It is a lot of sugar in it though.

    Apparently you have not heard of our Anti-American Nugits with Cheze. I believe they are better than marzipan, and "Health" Shakes.

    Marzipan is essentially ground almonds and sugar. Also known as almond butter.

    And I don't eat it with a spoon! As if I'd do such a thing!

    ...I eat it directly from the packet... :oops:
