I am a BULK-EATER. This means I can't eat 1 oz of potato chips if the 5 oz bag is in front of me. This means I will eat ALL FIVE OUNCES of potato chips and then scrap the bottom of the bag with my fingertips wondering where it all went to. Ditto for an 8-oz bag. And curse the person who came up with the *SHARING* version, a 13-oz bag of Rippled Black Pepper and Sea Salt chips.
I am especially bad at movies. Praise Be (who IS the Goddess of Snacks?) to the Highest, but fortunately I do not like movie popcorn. This means I violate every rule theaters have and bring in my own snacks. Knowing my own proclivities, I try to make it somewhat healthy: a carton of yogurt, orange or apple segments, kale chips...you get the idea.
Well, yesterday's snack was Lorissa's Kitchen Szechuan Peppercorn Beef Jerky. This bag contains 2.25 oz (at $4.99, this works out to an obscene $35.50/lb, but let's not go there) of small square-ish "premium steak strips" and this was my 11 grams of protein movie treat.
Sitting in the dark and noshing, things were going along fine when I though "oh, that's a tough piece!"
Then I took one more chew and that's when my brain caught up with my taste buds. I slowly reached up and pulled out what I KNEW I was going to find. And yes, it was the "oxygen absorber" packet with DO NOT EAT! written on it in FOUR different languages.
Apparently, Bulk-Eater wasn't one of them.
