Just so, just so. I remember some big stink back when about potato chips that were fried in some synthetic oil that had absolutely no caloric value whatsoever, & that was guaranteed to pass through the human gut without contributing anything to the organism. I think it was the optics (ugh!) that finally did it in - plus there were um, leakage problems ...

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olestra for the down 'n' dirty.

Already innovated decades ago. They're called "Twinkies".

I've heard Twinkies last for many years without deterioration (presuming kept at room temperature). Perhaps a good survival plan would be to purchase about 100,000 Twinkies and a ton of Tang.

You might want to stock some water to go along with that sumptuous feast...

ETA:

I've been informed that Twinkies not decaying is an urban legend, false.

Twinkies have a shelf life of twenty-five days, not seven years, and certainly not fifty years. Even so, twenty-five days is an unusually long time for a baked product to stay fresh. The secret to Twinkies’ longevity is their lack of dairy ingredients: because dairy products are not part of the formula, Twinkies spoil much more slowly than other bakery items.

Somebody informs us that he/she has a... Weired skin allergy.
We are further told that... If I eat something spicy or the itching increases the red patches.

This is a pet peeve of mine, residents of Cincinnati who cannot spell the very city they live in.

I see it misspelled all the time, usually "Cincinnatti." As in, "I've lived in Cincinnatti my entire life...." Or, "Long time Cincinnatti resident here....."


How can you live in a city and not know how to spell it?
