Sarah: Goldfish, Lisa: CheezIts. They’re sisters, so it makes sense. I, very clearly, stated there was no such snack food that had a such strangle-hold on my self control. In the next breath, I listed, by order of importance the myriad of Chex Mix flavors. I had just outed myself in the process of a… [Read more…]
