the nerve!

I generally avoid blogging at work because I would really rather not get caught, but a great injustice has just been visited upon me and I am not happy. I wanted to chronicle this outrage before my indignance wears off.

So I’m sick today, right? I feel awful, and it occurred to me a short while ago that an orange juice and sausage-cheese bagel from Speedway would really hit the spot. I normally work alone, but I left a note on my keyboard anyway and ducked out. And wouldn’t you know, I learned from the kind man at the register that Speedway quit making sausage-cheese bagels, and instead now makes everything on a biscuit or a croissant with egg, which I find gross.

I am aghast, but sadly, I am not a stranger to companies taking away the things I love most. Crunchy Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Hershey’s Cookies-n-Mint candy bar, Dr. Pepper Berries and Cream, Ocean Spray Juice and Tea, Spatini spaghetti sauce flavoring packets … I could go on, I’m sure. Instead, I will nurse my orange juice and eat the Donut Gems I got in place of my sausage-cheese bagel, and possibly weep softly for humanity.

    I thought you were going to blog about some injustice that happened at work. Glad to hear it was just the bagel thing, although that is a grievous turn of events.

    OMG I LOVED the Reese’s crunchy peanut butter cup. Why did they stop making that?

    i learned my lesson about 9 years ago when BK had a super delicious grilled onion cheese burger as a limited time only special, when they stopped making it i didnt eat there again for like a year. but from then on i steer clear of anything that is offered for a limited time only.

    I felt that way when Jack in the Box took away the Chicken Supreme. That was the best chicken sandwich EVER. :(
