Overheard in the Huckablazer.
March 30th, 2008
“I got some chips to eat on the way.”
“What are they?”
“Oke-dokeys.”
“What the heck. Oke-dokeys?”
“Wal-Greens brand Cheetos.”
***munching in silence***
“How are they?”
“Eh. They should be called Eh-key-dokeys.”
“Let me try.”
***munching in silence***
“They are nasty! They should be called ugg-key-dokeys.”
“Give one to The Son. He loves processed cheese products”
(From back seat) “Yuck!”
“Make that Yuckey-dokeys.”
**drive in silence**
“Can I have another one?”

yeah, after deciding they were yucky-dokes, It took 5 minutes, but I just had to have another one. Almost an insatiable need to prove that they really were as nasty as I thought they were.
They Were.
We threw them away as soon as possible (yuck).
……..hrmm…I want another one
I find that on some things (make that most things), it’s best to stick to the name brand item. I guess I’m a brand snob (and a breedist). A few exceptions: Kroger milk is awesome, Sam’s Choice orange juice is pretty good, Walgreens brand finger bandages (band-aids) stick longer and don’t pull when removed, and Kroger saltines are the best crackers ever (I used to be hooked on Premiums and Zestas, but I accidentally grabbed the Kroger ones in the red box, because they looked like my Zestas…instantly hooked!)
Lesson learned: Apparently only Walgreens brand drugs and medical supplies are worthy of trying…not their food items.
Hmm! Great idea of portion control.
Wal-Mart Oreos are good. They are called twist and shouts, we had to stop buying those, way too addictive. I don’t buy generic ketchup, toilet paper, paper towels, cereal(I like the prize), or dog/cat food. Most of everything else I will at least try the generic brand.
I bought something called Dr. Hy-top the other day, which is our grocery stores generic Dr. Pepper, I think. I figured Sam’s choice isn’t that bad, even faygo is drinkable so why not. There are no words to describe how wrong the thing in the can called soda was. I should have used it as punishment for the kids, or to try to make them think soda was evil, but I was afraid it would turn them into zombies or something. ….Maybe they sell stuff like that in Texas so you know that you just shouldn’t mess with Dr. Pepper.
