Is anyone out there a huge Pretenders fan?! I’d like “Let’s Make A Pact” off of their Album Packed! I haven’t searched everywhere for it yet, but I thought I’d give the good folks of Tumblr a try.
i love the pretenders! i don’t have this song ripped to my collection. not sure if i have it on cd. i’ll check.
This post is in regards to this reblogged post of mine.
When I was in college, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I would eat Cheetos Puffs on a weekly basis. Albeit unhealthy, here is my reasoning: compared to the other snacks at the school store that were being sold for 99cents, this particular bagged food item contained the most product. Hence, I would purchase a bag, and it would last me for the entire day, if not a couple days. I took a liking to these particular treats, specifically the airy Cheetos Puffs. When I finally returned to California one summer, to my dismay, I found out that Cheetos Puffs in California ARE NOT like Cheetos Puffs in Michigan, or the Midwest. I made a really hostile post on my Xanga a couple years ago about it and some kind souls from Michigan mailed me Cheetos Puffs from Michigan to suppress my Cheetos Puffs fix. One day while I was at work, I was explaining the situation to a co-worker when a man interrupted our conversation. Coincidentally, he worked for Frito-Lay (he even showed me his business card). He explained that what happens is that all the different regions of the United States are surveyed and their products are made to cater the majority preference in that particular region. Therefore, Californians like the more crunchy taste of Cheetos Puffs than the airy kind in the Midwest.
Thanks Californians, you couldn’t just have chosen to buy a bag of regular Cheetos, you had to go and spoil it for us all.
(Someone asked me why in making this video, I only ate 4 Cheetos, instead of an entire bag…the reason is…the Spicy Cheetos Puffs have the same texture and airyness of regular Cheetos Puffs in the Midwest…so even though I don’t like the taste, I sacrifice it for the nostalgic crunchless texture of Michigan Cheetos Puffs.)
Thanks Cheetos:
best post ever.
… when I came home from the party today, this was sitting in my chair to greet me upon my arrival …
I have fond memories of Planters Cheese Balls being consumed on long car rides in the Philippines when I was a kid …
i am so pro-cheese ball! reminds me of being a little kid and eating these with wrinkly fingers and my hair drippy with the smell of chlorine and the bubbles of the lively glass of coke that i had with it on those summer days at my grandparents.
for some reason now i want to cheese ball bomb karen abad. i dont really know her but i think she would laugh really hard at mass parcels sent to her door full of cheese balls. anyone know her/want to join me on this?
i might have to join you on this.
