Candy bars

Mr. Goodbar is underrated. Pro tip: pour half of your brownie batter in your pan. Lay some Mr. Goodbars down for a layer. Pour the second half of your batter. Bake as directed and frost if you think you need to. Amazing.
 
I don’t know if you guys saw th McDonald’s ceo thing where he literally called it a product but more and more often now, food is being replaced with this idea that it’s a food product.

Sometimes I go in the cheese section at the grocery store and I see some slices that aren’t cheese but “cheese product”, basically a fake milk concoction that is created to simulate actual cheese. Lots of soft drinks don’t have real fruit juice but just create “orange flavour” in a lab. Lots of chicken nuggets are just conglomerates of chicken parts processed to hell, not actual pieces of chicken meat. It existed for a while but seems so much more prevalent now and that Reese’s example reminded me of it. There will always be real options and lots of them but it’s fucked that this stuff is racing to the bottom and ruining the health of people that can’t afford better.
 
Not sure about Canada, but in the US cheese has a strict definition. If you add any emulsifiers to make it more shelf stable or melt better, it's no longer cheese.
 
Reminds me of when I worked in the dorm cafeteria and we had liquid egg product and liquid butter product instead of eggs and butter.
