"I've had food I've not enjoyed, but I never had to insult it.

Does mayonaise make you angry?"

Well, that depends. Kraft mayonnaise does, actually. *Gag*

Lighten up, chap - it's only food. It cannot feel. It has no self-esteem to be damaged.

In the UK, there's an ad campaign for Marmite (yeast extract - another abomination). The whole campaign - which is quite funny - is based on the fact that some people love it, and some people really, really hate it. So the ads either end with the words "My mate Marmite" or "I hate Marmite". Scrapple similarly divides people, it seems.

Just to prove I'm not castng nasturtiums at Pennsylvania Dutch cookery in general, I love a good shoofly pie. Apple butter is the food of the gods. And they make the best baked ham in the whole world round Lancaster, PA.

Am I forgiven?
