Tostitos has a new line of chips out that are "Salsa & Cream Cheese" flavoured. What the hell is that? It says on the back of the bag that they are lightly seasoned in two popular dipping flavours (salsa and cream cheese), but what in the name of Zeus is cream cheese seasoning? It's not like these chips are coated in cream cheese when you pull them out of the bag. It's just seasoned like any other flavoured tortilla chip. I'm curious as to how they managed to transform cream cheese into a powdered seasoning. Cheese powder for other kinds of cheeses exists and I much better understand that. But cream cheese is slightly liquidy. It's like turning butter into a powder. Or cheez whiz. Or sour cream! Oh wait....sour cream and onion chips exist don't they? Am I missing something here?
Switching the topic a little here, am I the only who wonders how many complete cows Subway has sold in the form of meatball sandwiches? Has this thought ever run across your mind? Surely, no complete cows have been served seeing as there is more to a cow than the ground beef used in meatball construction. Obviously Subway doesn't serve cow eyes (we hope) and from that we can conclude that Subway hasn't served any complete cows because a cow is not complete without an eye. But I'm just saying that if a cow weighs 3500 pounds or something like that, then how many times has Subway sold 3500 pounds worth of meatballs on their sandwiches? But that question isn't as interesting. I prefer to equate 3500 pounds of beef with one whole cow.
