It's Diffurnt


Never ever ever in all my born days have I seen such a foodstuff as this tube of something squishy that I encountered this morning at the local Piggly Wiggly. First let me say that I love a store that dares to name itself "Piggly Wiggly." And this particular chain also has its own tee shirts - which are pretty awesome and which I am pretty sure I am going to buy one of, the next time I go. And when they make in-store announcements, they begin with "The pig" (says buy this or that....) Love. It.

But WTF with this tube of offal? In fact, there was practically an offal section in the store - with bags of pigs' feet and chicken hearts and gizzards. I think if they had a section like that at Dean & DeLuca, they would charge an offal lot (haha) for it and have a sign saying "as seen on Iron Chef..." But this morning I encountered this tube of something in the store, just down the road past a million Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich signs. I am in Indian country now..... As my first mother-in-law used to say, "It's diffurnt."
