Whatever, I'm getting cheese fries.*

Today for lunch we went to Noodles and Company (they don't have fries so this works out great for me - 0% temptation). I like Noodles and Company, I've only been there a grand total of 2 times, but it's good food and they sell monster sized Rice Krispy Treats (which apparently the proper way to say it is, "Rice Krispies Treats"). I bought one of course and smashed it into my purse for later, you know, when your eyes start drooping and your mind starts to wander and you can't focus on work. That's usually the time I start thinking about the vending machine downstairs, wondering what kind of sugar (non-chocolate, non-chewy, non-fruity) fix I can get from it and if I'm willing to pay the money for it.

So here I am, hitting that wall where I need sugar and I'm content to pick at my monster sized rice krispy treat. My fingers get this strange greasy feeling though and I hate that, and then I thought, 'you know what would be great? Bite sized rice krispy treats!" And then I remembered, someone else had that same great idea many years ago and decided to market it as cereal...
...cereal my mother would not buy for me. Bummer. Wish they had still been selling it in every store when I moved out on my own. I would always have a box on hand (much like I am with Captain Crunch). I could really use a couple boxes of this stuff. I could just put some in a baggy and carry it around with me always. They shouldn't have marketed it as cereal, I think bite sized Rice Krispy Treats would do very well in today's market...or maybe they would be before (or after) their time. Like the peanut butter twix.

I've gotta say, that is also one of my all time favorite cereals! They have it at almost every store here. I don't buy it very often though. My sister gave me the idea to make my own. When ever I make rice krispie treats (also a favorite) I break some up and eat them as cereal...I suppose you could cut then so you don't get that weird greasy feeling on your hands....
anyway ummmm..... "like"
