Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

We were promised cheese powered space ships that would take us to the edge of the universe, and we are still stuck with rockets that can't even reach Mars!

Give it time! The cheese-powered space ships are from the 2260s.

Mac and Cheese with ketchup was a staple in my house growing up. Haven't eaten it in years. Can't really get it here other than at Costco, and I'm not really that interested in buying like 24 boxes of Mac and Cheese.

But, what's wrong with ketchup on hot dogs? Ketchup and mustard on a hotdog.

I am not going to lie. While I have never attempted a full deli block of cheese, I have finished blocks of cheese on my own

I freely admit that sometimes I'll get one of those small blocks of sharp cheddar sized for slicing up onto crackers and eat it just like a candy bar.

When I go to a game at a ballpark, those would be my preferred dogs. Occasionally, I’ll add cheese or chili, but never both. Rarely, I’ll get a Chicago style, but only in a park that I know makes them well.

Unfortunately, what most of the world knows as "American cheese" is a specific, heavily-processed cheese-flavored product made by Kraft Foods Inc., who patented the process of making it in like 1920. It's not cheese; it's what Capitalism does to cheese. It's a pale, sad mockery of actual cheeses from America and it's embarrassing us in front of the whole world.

It isn't quite that specific.

"Because its manufacturing process differs from traditional cheeses, federal laws mandate that it be labeled as "pasteurized process American cheese" if made from more than one cheese. A "pasteurized process American cheese" must be entirely cheese with the exception of an emulsifying agent, salt, coloring, acidifying agents, and optional dairy fat sources (but at no more than 5% of the total weight). A "pasteurized process American cheese food" label is used if it is at least 51% cheese but other specific dairy ingredients such as cream, milk, skim milk, buttermilk, cheese whey, or albumin from cheese whey are added. Products with other added ingredients, such as Kraft Singles that contain milk protein concentrate, use legally unregulated terms such as "pasteurized prepared cheese product"."

We were promised flying cars and houses that fold up into briefcases, but I would be happy with a toaster that actually pops up the toast consistently when the bread reaches optimal brownness. But no, instead I get "Remember your terrible drawings from childhood? Now a computer can do just as poorly!"

Correction: We were promised flying cars that fold up into briefcases.

The junk merchant doesn't sell his product to the consumer, he sells the consumer to his product. He does not improve and simplify his merchandise. He degrades and simplifies the client.

Jokes on him, I have nowhere further to degrade.

As Mama Snarf always used to tell me, "Snarf, quit yer pie-eyed optimism. What, you think that bein' in the gutter means ya ain't got no where to go but up? Well let me learn ya sumpin'. Gutters got storm drains, filled with creepy clowns. And that's not even the worst thing that can happen to ya. Because if you don't get yer Mama her carton of Parliaments and a few cases of Natty Light? Eff around and find out."
