I am sorry. I just think this is ridiculous. Who is the first guy that thought of this? What was in his head at the time? Is he the same guy that first imagined the Aztek and said, “Is it too ugly? Nooooo …” Is this the guy that keeps convincing people that Zima tastes good? Is he the one that sued McDonald’s to force them to put Caution: Contents Hot on their coffee cups? I’m sure the technological ramifications of inventing a substance to which peanut butter does not stick are mind-boggling, but how will the bananas not slide away?!

  1. You. Are. So. Hot.

  2. Ok, when will we see the “individually wrapped jelly slices”. That’s gross. I mean, think about this. Will we have store-branded knock-off sliced peanut butter? And will it stick to the wrapper (much like generi-brand processed cheese-food slices?)Ugh.

  3. Ridiculous, but I’m not sure how it’s any worse than things like Velveeta. Which you can now buy individually sliced too.I mean, that’s stuff’s not cheese. It’s not even actually yellow — it’s clear. They have to dye it to get it to look even vaguely like food.People will eat anything as long as it’s marketed well.

  4. This is what scares me:”Their biggest hurdle was to get the peanut butter so it wouldn’t stick to the wrap. But don’t ask them how they did that.”Anytime someone says, in essence, “you don’t want to know” about food prep, I worry.

  5. You guys are a bunch of fuddy-duddies. I think it’s a good idea and I’m 56 years old. I bet you guys even call yourselves “progressive.” HAH!

A few years ago I was trying to determine what cocktails I could make with the alcohol I had at home. I searched the App Store but couldn't find an app that would let me do that, so I built one.
