When I was in elementary school, these really cool pieces of styrofoam were repackaged as rice cakes. My sister and I loved them, and I used to make sandwiches with them. I think I only made them with peanut butter and jelly, but there are probably other worthy combinations. I had some rice cakes today. These ones were from the health food section, and they had flavor, something I don’t remember from the old Quaker brand.
I was eating one at work and the phone rang. I had just taken a big bite, and I tried to quickly crunch and separate it into my cheek pouches. I was worried I’d spit on the phone or something. I don’t remember what the call was about, but after I hung up, and started chewing again, I realized there was nothing to chew. It had dissolved in my mouth. Its the perfect cubicle/phone support food. A food for which chewing is optional….no wonder I’m out of shape.
