I talk to crackers
No, I am not making a racist statement, I really talk to crackers. You know, crackers, the kind you eat.
My taste buds must be warped. I like to blame it on the chemotherapy I did 14 years ago. After Chemo my taste for some things was changed. Beer taste terrible, unless it is a dark beer, I hardly use mustard preferring mayonnaise on most sandwiches, and I clearly remember not liking mayonnaise most of my life.
Now comes the crackers… Cheez It brand started making different flavors of their crackers. I quickly became addicted to the BBQ flavor crackers. Perfect for a Nascar race or good movie. And then….
They were gone. Just like that. Oh they kept all the other flavors that I don’t like. Now everytime we go grocery shopping I just have to stop, check the stock and then make my comments to the boxes on the shelf. And then I pickup a box of another brand and brazenly wave it in front of the Cheez It brand boxes lined up on the shelf.
So there I am, standing in the store, taunting boxes of crackers. My wife keeps warning me that store management is going to call security on me. But, it’s all I have left of a tasteful memory.
