No Cottage Doubles for Lunch Today

I eat Breakstone’s Cottage Doubles for lunch a few times a week. I started a few months ago when I was trying to shed some pounds. I haven’t lost too much weight, but I’m still eating these dam things. Can I say dam on Cootiehog? Well, there’s a new flavor, Apples and Cinnamon. I was all excited to take my first bite and I tore into the package to find mold. Yuck! Needless to say, yet I’ll say it anyway, no Cottage Doubles for lunch today. Hope the other one I bought that day isn’t spoiled. I called Kraft’s 800 number and will be receiving a coupon for a free Cottage Double. Well, it’s not actually free. I already paid for the product. All I got out of this is having to now spend $8.00 on a sandwich instead of $1.50 for lunch. I’m going to get some dirty dogs from a hot dog street vender instead. Hope there’s no mold on them. I had a bad dog from in front of Yankee Stadium that gave me food poisoning one year. That’s another story. I can also tell you about the spores that exploded in my face from some home-made cornbread that sat on my window sill in tupperware for a few weeks (or was it months?), but I won’t.

    Kate, then you would hate my cornbread spore story. I’ll keep it to myself.

    Sorry to hear about your lunch going bad. And yes, you can say “dam” AND “damn” on this website. Shocker!

    Ace, a dirty dog is the hot dogs they sell from the push carts. They sit in foul dirty water all day long; hence, the term, dirty dog.

    Kate, I made a loaf of cornbread for the future use in making my own cornbread stuffing. I placed the cornbread in a tupperware container to let it sit for a day or two. Well, I never made the cornbread stuffing but I let the cornbread sit on the window sill in the sun for weeks. I kept wanting to empty the container out, but never got around to it. It became part of the furniture.

    Then one day I finally decided, “Clean up time!” I popped the lid off the container while I was over the sink and the contents exploded in my face. I tried to duck, but I wasn’t fast enough. The heat of the sun and the tightness of the lid caused the cornbread to grow into supermold or something like that. I still think any snoring or sinus problems I have are related to that event. Don’t worry, Jane, I threw that container right in the trash.
