Sports beans and artificial colors?

[KnottedYet]

Isn't acacia what giraffes eat? Do they get itchy throats? That'd be one heck of an itch...

Hmm, I just never worried about artificial colors. After all that waiting and wondering about the Blue Beans, I don't like them that much. I like Lime, then Punch, then Blue, then Orange.

And I found out that my perfect cycling maintenance food, Beans, does NOT mix well with what I refer to as "running." Too sweet, too chewy. Isn't that weird how something you love for one sport sucks for another??

Maybe that's why I'm better at cycling: it's easier to eat while doing it.

And those bruises from bouncing around in the bike bag add variety and interesting texture.

You need this.

You need this.

must resist......must resist.......Ack! I can't do it!!!!

Do those things come with batteries?

I like fig neutons! They are small and not to crummy, you can eat them sort of warm, and they don't taste like flavored dirt like a lot of the bar things do.

Is that a banana in your pocket...?

Trek, say something witty, cuz I'm in too much shock.

[KnottedYet]

(I didn't type that )

I've always thought fig bars tasted kind of like dirt...

I made my little brother eat dirt once.

And SKnot ate dirt when he was a toddler.


Mmmmmmm, crunchy......

I ate masses of dirt when I was a tiny kid. And sand. And coal. And, and, and...

[Nanci]

I feel bad about this, but when I was a kid, I tricked another kid into eating a rabbit turd by saying it was a Cocoa Puff.

I don't think I ever ate dirt, though. I did throw a mudball at the neighbor's sheets, and got in a sh*tload of trouble.

Being a kid was fun.

Ate a lot of snow. And raw macaroni. And bread balls. (Recipe- cut the crusts off spongy white bread, roll into a ball, eat).

Outside, I ate clover and buds and flowers, as well as the usual garden/tree robbing. I liked to pretend I wa a deer.

[Nanci]

I forgot! I think I ate chalk (but not a lot) and paste.

[KnottedYet]

The paste we had in first grade smelled like peppermint. Tell me they didn't expect us to snack on it!

[ladyjai]

paste? toothpaste?


Rabbittrail threads are quite amusing....

[Geonz]

Gosh, and at the *end* of the first page I thought I was giong to have to apologize for assuming that if this thread went to two pages, it must have drifted. Yes, you *could* have a second page of posts and still be talking about food colors and sports beans... but not much more!
I suppose that if things are all natural, they might be more likely to get all natural food poisoning elements. Now let me go find my banana...
