I've never seen canned pudding. Is it actually a can? If so, don't underestimate the hazards.

 

I'd hate to think what it'd be like if it weren't in the can.

You sure it's still in there?  The can hasn't "blown it's top" so to speak?

I have not seen it for a while.  I once had a can of cream of coconut blow up in my kitchen.  It wasn't pretty.

My first time posting to this topic.

I will never again add an entire deseeded Carolina Reaper pepper to a batch of chili. I had to add more beans and serve with a lot of rice to tone it down and it was still sinus clearing.

And this is coming from someone who regularly adds half a Habanero or more to a breakfast wrap.

I shall never again mistake my hand for an avocado.

 

 

Ouch. That's just the pits.

 

I assume this involved a knife, not sprinkling lime and salt on your hand, then taking a bite.

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power.  -Robert G. Ingersoll, lawyer and orator

 

Patriotism is often an arbitrary veneration of real estate above principles. -George Jean Nathan, author and editor

 

A sense of humor is a measurement of the extent to which you realize that we are trapped in a world almost totally devoid of reason. Laughter is how we express the anxiety we feel at this knowledge.

-Dave Barry, humorist
