English muffinsFollow

So I'm sitting in the office and I just can't wait until dinner time, yet all my lunch and snacks have already been eaten. I head to the fridge and find only a package of two english muffins (butter is on the top shelf of course). I know they are pretty old but have no visible mold. So I take out the steak knife, cut them in two and pop them into the toaster oven anyway.

5 mins later, they are a nice toasty brown, rather hard, but that's how I cook fresh english muffins anyway. Slather on the butter and bite in. Oh how delectible! Taste's just fine. That's pretty impressive for a tag that says 'expires Oct 13'.


What the hell kind of preservatives do you Brits put in food anyway?


This post was brought to you by the sheer boredom and hunger of me.

Haha. Those were joke muffins. Now you're addicted to heroin.

um... that's kinda what zip-lock bags are for

Nooks and crannies brought to you from the causal paradox of time?

Did you consult with kelv before you ate those?

Goddamnit, now I want an english muffin.
Nobby?

oh the wonders of preserving carbs

i remember trying it with fruit once, many years ago, with a banana. the end result looked frighteningly like a giant greenish-black bird crap

Sorry.

Is it still okay to slather you in butter?

I've got a dinner roll in a zip lock bag from August of 1997 and it's hard as a rock, so not all zip lock is great.
