Betty Crocker is a communist

Need I say more?
Woefully behind on posts from the lengthy December vacation which was followed by endless trials and whining clients, I decided I needed a chocolate infusion stat. Everyone knows that brownie batter is a cure for bad breakups, cancer and stress. I have stress, therefore I need brownies, and pre-brownies in the form of brownie batter while I wait for brownies to bake. Then I saw this on the box. “Fuck off Betty Crocker”, said Jean as she licked the spatula.
Works just as well with Egg Beaters, with no fear of Salmonella either.
Would have killed for some Duncan Hinds Dark Fudge brownies tonight myself, but no cooking oil in the house.
Chocolate syrup works in place of cooking oil in a pinch. Or, you can just open the top of the Hershey’s syrup and take a slug off the bottle.
Damn wish I had known that earlier.But then I would have to talk to my DH, and wouldn’t have gotten so much reading of Widow of the South read. Lol
.
Required reading before visiting Nashville, but you can hold the kindle in one hand and the brownie in the other.
Done that many many times already!!!!! LOL 1/3 of the way thru the book, and aread researched Carnton.
We always eat the batter and cookie dough. Lots of it and have never gotten sick. Great stuff.
Exactly. I am sure salmonella is terrifying and all, but so is life without brownie batter.
Ha! Second post I read today about batters and salmonella. And I agree, what crazy crackhead put that on the box? There is nothing wrong at all with eating batter. What are they teaching the youth of tomorrow? Won’t someone think of the children????
Someone needs to think of the children. My entire childhood would have been ruined if these warnings had existed and were actually heeded. The warning police need to stop.
I should know not to come here when I have insomnia. I just laughed so hard my neighbor upstairs slammed something on the floor, her way of politely letting me know I woke her up…
Insomnia is cured by brownie batter. You should probably have some.
And now I’m craving raw brownie batter. Well mostly just the batter and water and maybe a little bit of oil. Yummmmm.
Brownie batter is also known to be addictive. I’d rather give up a heroin habit than brownie batter.
Anyone who doesn’t eat raw batter or dough is a conspiracy-theorist Socialist bastard. That is the nectar of the GODS, damn it!
Socialist rat bastards, specifically. Brownie batter is too awesome to be rationed by some small-minded bureaucrat that wants to keep liquid chocolatey greatness away from me.
Uh – oh … great! 😦 Now you’ve made ’em really mad.
Anyone stands between me and a cupcake is in mortal danger. I’m just sayin’.
Betty Crocker. Who knew? Dammit. I don’t even like cooked dough.
