The Multigrain Cheese Puff

once had a friend from the Netherlands who when walking with me in the city stopped in a bodega & saw a pack of cheddar cheese & pretzel Combos--- i bought them in an instant & asked him if he wanted some, however, with a bit of stereotypical snobbery, he turned up his nose saying something to the effect of “there has never been something so american as Combos…fake sodium pumped cheese inside of stale carbs & salt” & i could only imagine if he stumbled upon the same bag of Bachman’s Multigrain Baked Cheese Curls, which i saw today & how his heart might have just stopped, as he gasped for breath amidst the NYC pollution.
