@IrishHeart Yeah for sure. Way too much vinegar and sugar. My father used to complain, but my mother had the food budget under tight control.

@Mizmazzle @Oaktavia weed’s a gateway alright. A gateway to Swedish Fish, Oreos, the kids’ weekend cereal, s’mores over the stove burner and whatever else I can find in the pantry that isn’t nailed down. Not once though have I ever wanted to get in a car and drive somewhere. Or get in a fight with anything bigger than a candy bar wrapper.
Several years ago a study was done on the effect of cracking down on marijuana usage on college campuses,and they found that it resulted in an uptick in alcohol related trips to hospital emergency rooms. Kind of like what you said,when college kids smoke weed they just want to hang out and eat.

When Alex was at boarding school we were told that the house masters were way more scared about the secret consumption of alcohol than the use of drugs....Possibly, in this instance because it was easy to steal it from the parents when they came home on out days...

@ARNC death to the ketchup users.
and how do you two feel about Catsup?
I always assumed this was the old name of Ketchup. There’s a difference?

@neph93 It’s the same thing and something people used to argue about with the spelling. Which one is correct ketchup or catsup? Probably one of the murica things…
in any case, all of these spellings are anglicizations of the name of a Chinese sauce that sounded something like ke-tsiup. Or so I've been told.
