So this was posted on The Consumerist awhile back, but looks like I finally get a chance to share it with you guys: Rabbit sweets toxic, too. These White Rabbit-brand Creamy Candy is a very common Chinese sweet, usually consumed during the holidays (i.e. Chinese New Years). According to this news article, it appears that Melamine was found inside the candy, which can cause kidney problems and ultimately cancer. Just shouting a warning for those who still consume white rabbit candy. I remember eating a bunch of these when I was a kid.

Since we’re on the topic of food, here’s another snack soon to be gone also reported on The Consumerist, is Mother’s Cookies abruptly shut down. I’m deeply saddened by this news as I’m a big fan of their circus animal cookies. Those frosted cookies were like crack and I could probably down the whole bag in 1 sitting. Of course I’d get super sick because of that. Maybe I should start stocking up on these cookies. *sniffs*

So last weekend, I went to Costco and picked up some chicken nuggets (or as they call it, Breast Nuggets) and also some Minh egg rolls. I was thinking about picking up some Ling Ling egg rolls, but once again their box didn’t have any instructions for the deep fryer. I think Ling Ling has something against using the deep fryer. Oh well. The most shocking of all, is that apparently Costco doesn’t carry frozen french fries. The closest thing resembling frozen french fries was either the hash brown or the potato wedges. They also had some battered fish and shrimp that I’m thinking of trying out next time.

Here’s how they turned out:

I had also baked some cookies to put it into the penguin cookie jar that Cari had given me. Otis Spunkmeyer chocolate chip cookies are just so awesome!

I also found it interesting that the hot oven rails get captured as magenta color.

Last bit about food. I had just started watching the 3rd season of House, M.D. and one of the earlier episodes was a case about twins. How does this relate to food. When I was about to fry some eggs for dinner tonight, I cracked open an egg found this:

I guess chickens can have twins too!
