# Contemplating life while walking home from shameless book shopping, which I really shouldn't have done, but damn it, I've been wanting to read them and actually own some of them (some others I bought even though I didn't even know they existed before, but. Cheap. Interesting. Vampirates. IDK, man, I haven't read that one yet and I don't even know ( Read more... )

You should have bought sausages - they taste a bit like meat, and are easy to cook! :D

Wow, I'll never look at avocados the same way now O____O

I totally lold at that letter, but that guy is such a creep! And how did he even get your e-mail? D:

...you do know what sausages are made of? Soy, toilet paper, skin, joints, cut-offs, gelatin, and water. Why would I eat that?

Sorry, I suppose. It's just that. My mind is really fucking weird sometimes.

ikr? Hmmm, I suppose I never disabled my profile from the last year's attempt at online dating. Imagine how many profiles that fool must've gone through to dig up something at least a half year old. -.-

Because they taste good and are easy to cook? XD

Lol, I was not eating avocados anyway, but now I never will :D

Wow, he sure was desperate... How pathetic.

Sausage. Taste good. Something's not right here. :'D

Well. You're missing out, tbh.

Tell me about it. -.-

Lol, you probably just never found the right sausage XDD

Nah, I'm not really into exotic stuff like that, tomatoes and cucumbers are good enough for me.

I hope no girls will fall for it... Although you never know, somebody might be stupid.

Hmmm, I suppose not. They don't make the ones I like anymore.

Not even a melon?

You know. I think somebody actually went for this, since he gave up on me. Maybe the same girl whom he forwarded his reply to. :'D

That's a pity :( It sucks when tasty things are not made anymore, I'm still sad they stopped making that delicious Finnish-style bread that I used to eat all the time (it was round and flat).

But melons are not that exotic XDD I eat melons :D

Wow, I hope he gets a nasty disease from whoever agreed to be his companion XDD

IKR? They've stopped making so many awesome candy too! sucker for candy, OTL And and. Dzintars melted cheese with chili. Biggest.Loss.Ever. ;~;

Let's hope his companion doesn't catch any diseases from him instead. Poor moron.

Really? I never noticed, any chocolate with whole nuts is already good enough for me, so I don't pay attention to other things. And I had no idea that sort of cheese flavour existed O_O

Haha, well, if she does, she deserved that for being stupid.

Are you kidding? So many awesome hard candies disappeared! Like Starts and Rallijs, and that Nakts Karaliene or maybe Jaungada - I don't remember the name, just that it had a purple wrapper with golden stars - which was my favourite - a yellow hard candy dipped in dark chocolate alkdsjfkjdaf. Also, a lot of chocolate candy, some of Laima's classics disappeared after the merger and what does it have now, really? Serenāde, Vāverīte, Magone, Vētrasputns, and five-ten more? When it used to have at least 15-20 more names - and the same for Uzvara. Now we have just some cheap Lithuanian rip-offs with a bland taste. >|
Are.You.Kidding? Where you living under a rock? Dzintars had a lot of melted cheese flavours - crabs, mushrooms, vegetables (also not bad, surprisingly), salami, greens, ham. And chili. omg, chili. That was gastronomical pleasure personified. *¬*

I never liked hard candies... But now that I think about it, there was a chocolate candy Jaungada, too - with a shiny wrapper that had fluffy tassels on both ends. I don't think I've seen it lately, I guess it has disappeared, too :/ Just one more proof of the total collapse of our industry.

Lithuanian candy really is not tasty, but it's cheap, I guess for some people that matters more.

I was not living under a rock, I was eating normal cheese, not this horrible fake cheesy stuff XDD So I wouldn't know about the flavours.

Serenāde was also specifically made for the New Year's with tassels on ends, and so were some others, iirc. For the Soviet-style New Year's. Or something.

If I'm desperate for something sweet and am short of money, I go for cheap foreign candy, orz. But really, any candy is game with me. *horrible*

Normal cheese is boring. Have you tried the green cheese? And the rotting cheese? And cheese sausgae?

But I saw them even after Soviet time XDD Well, maybe it was too soon after Soviets, they hadn't got over the traditions yet.

Yeah, I can understand that XD But I'm more particular about candy, some things I would not want to eat even if I was craving sugar.

I like boring, it's safe XDD I've tried the rotting cheese (ewww, the smell >_<) and the cheese sausage (it is too salty and the texture is not pleasing). Green cheese I haven't tried, but I don't really want to, either XDD

...man, you don't even remember the Soviet mindset. It wasn't about not getting over the Soviet tradition. It was selling out the year-old stocks. And then people wonder after finding worms in their candy and whatnot. Sheesh.

To each their own, after all.

Green cheese is okay. (Don't know about the powdered green, never tried it; just the regular.) It has an interesting taste and it's on the hard side.

denshi_no_ultra June 6 2011, 19:16:35 UTC
Nope, I don't. Besides, I've never really worked in retail industry, so all those things about selling out the stocks are pretty foreign to me.

True, true.

I haven't even noticed green cheese exists - lol, I am pretty selective about what I notice, I only see what I want to see XDD

But... haven't you noticed that our stores still have Jelgavas cukurs on sale when the factory has been closed for what - half a decade now? o.O Did your grandmother never stack up on zapte to whip it out two years later and claim it was still good and edible (most of the time it is, tbh)?

Maaaaan. You're missing out on so much. You're not into discovering new things, I presume?
