The Chewggle Snacktory



Snickers just launched a viral marketing site, http://snacklish.com, that plays on their mostly funny recent ad campaign which uses the winning formula puns + logo = funny (i.e. "Take a sabbatical to FEEDGYPT.")

Snacklish lets you enter in any text and translates it into "Snacklish." (Well, ALMOST any text. I tried entering "Snickers sucks" just to see what happened and it displayed "Nougataboutit." Hah! Way to have a sense of chewmore, Snickers. (GET IT!?))

Totally silly, but a good way to kill 15 mins at work.

Enjoy!

Tasty Thing: Cadbury Mini-Eggs



So everyone knows Reese's Eggs are the star of the Easter candies. Peeps are cute and all, but Reese's Eggs are actually delicious (whereas 2+ Peeps will make you vom).

But MY favorite Easter candy, hands down, are Cadbury Mini-Eggs. God damn. The shell is super crunchy and the chocolate is so milky and melty. Plus I like that they go the extra mile and dust the cocoa powder on the eggs to make them look real.



WARNING: Sometimes the shells are SO crispy that after you bite them, a little shard will break off and stab your hard palate. This review words it nicely:
Advantages: Chocolate
Disadvantages: Spiky bits hurt yer gums
Seriously, it hurts a LOT, so be careful!
