For the curious, I zoomed in on the plate on the table and that is not a plate of fried or sunny-side-up eggs, they are cookies with little pumpkins frosted onto them!

Copycat Pillsbury Pumpkin Sugar Cookies | The Squeaky Mixer

Think they’re just dyed sugar cookies. Which are pretty easy to make. But yes, little pumpkins.

Standard cat behavior

I would legitimately do this if calories weren't a concern.

A single handful of candy corn is all I can handle for a year.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Keep it up. You'll get there!

[–] StellarExtract@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Same here, but I savor that handful

[–] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

A day is all I can make a single handful of candy corn last.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I love candy corn. There, I said it.

[–] flicker@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I want to point out to anyone afraid of saying they love candy corn-

You fall under the Black Jellybean/Black Licorice rule. Every single person who hates candy corn will pretend there's something wrong with you, but we all need one of you in our lives to take the candy corn/black jellybeans/black licorice. We may pretend to mock you, but without you, we either have to eat that garbage ourselves, or feel really guilty throwing it away.

Just remember, mockery over these things comes in the same form as mocking a beloved sibling. You might think we're picking on you, and we are, but we love you.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I really love this.

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who likes black licorice.

...is the Brussels sprouts of candy.

[–] Metostopholes@midwest.social 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I guess you're right, because I love both of them.

Candycorn + peanuts = Payday 🀀

[–] Sixner@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

You son of a bitch. I'm in

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Brussels sprouts are so much more delicious than I was told they would be as a kid. I only tried them the first time in my 30s. Seasoned and baked in the oven. Absolutely delicious.

Candy corn sux

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

if your candycorn crunches like that its probably at least a year old

[–] ghen@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

The only downside is now I need to buy more

[–] Marduk73@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago

Circus peanuts are still worse. But candy corn is so close.

[–] hark@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What if I could melt candy corn and use it as a syrup on pancakes?

[–] finestnothing@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's a lose-lose situation here.

You would be still be eating candy corn which is best described as the shape, color, texture, and flavor of Shrek's earwax, just without the shape anymore

Beyond that, it would either harden into an impenetrable crust that would flatten your pan cake into a sad pan cracker when you try to get through it, or be extremely thick, sticky napalm that sticks to your gums and makes your whole mouth look and feel like the end of Terminator 2

I don't like candy corn

[–] hark@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

A pancake encased in a candy corn shell? That actually sounds amazing!
