Why would anyone respond with such a negative comment to an innocuous posting?
Perhaps it was a joke...

Hugh Hefner's ex wife was once employed at the Mars plant in Chicago. I don't think you'll find that info anywhere on the internet but I started working there in 1970 and some of the old timers remembered her.

"Saltines now have the holes in the crackers so large that jelly goes through them".
Yeah, and that really messes with me.

MLK spoke at my college graduation, 1963 CCNY! I met Coretta Scott King many years later and told her we met earlier, but she probably would not recognize me....I was one of several thousand in the stadium. She got a nice laugh and agreed. I did recall that she was on the platform with her husband.

Nougat is a family of confections made with sugar or honey, roasted nuts, whipped egg whites, and sometimes chopped candied fruit. The consistency of nougat is chewy, and it is used in a variety of candy bars and chocolates. The word nougat comes from Occitan pan nogat, seemingly from Latin panis nucatus 'nut bread'. Wikipedia.
I've felt that 3 Musketeers with whipped nougat was one of the least non-healthy candy bars because it seems lighter with air.

You're probably right. Perhaps it's on me for assuming the worst but then again I'm just doing my thing as an old curmudgeon. I need a candy bar.

Yes, but only his first wife worked there.

Take a 3 musketeer bar and break it into pieces and put in a tin cup of water.... take a roll of TP and start wrapping it around your free hand 10 or 15 times; tuck in top and bottom and put on concrete floor and light the middle. Set tin cup on top and you have a jailhouse cup of the BEST hot chocolate you ever tasted.... Relayed to me from someone who spent a few days in the cooler back in the day. BTW, it works ! Enjoy.

You beat me to it I was going to reply for you. I was attending Vietnamese language school in Washington D.C.
