Just like tomato soup…

Filed Under Babbling, Homelife 

Last night when I was eating dinner, I grabbed a V8. Seriously. Not because of all of the commercials but because Sarah and I bought a flat of the small 8oz cans from Costco a while back and we’ve been eat drinking them like there’s no tomorrow. And it just so happens that we had out some crunchy baked Cheetos too. If you haven’t tried it yet? Trust me on this one. Cheetos and V8. Combination of champions.

And it sounds weird, I know, but just think of how there are combinations exactly like that in slightly different forms… Its no different than eating a pizza (sauce and cheese) or having some goldfish crackers in your tomato soup. Why, there are dozens of foods like this that we have in the same combination in different forms. Ever think that trail mix which is simply usually nuts and raisins is the same thing as eating a peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich?

We think we’re inventive folks with these combinations, but I’d bet if we really looked at some of these foods simplified, we’d realize we’re eating the same thing, in different combinations.

But, who cares. I’m all about V8 and Cheetos. I could live off of that. Throw in some ice cream for my fats, dairy, and protein? There’s a fully balanced diet right there…
