I, for one, was very happy with my (traded) food prize from the 1000 Day! Last night, around 1 am, I woke up starving - well, with the munchies, to be exact. So, the can of chez sitting in the other room looked awfully good all of a sudden. So, I squirted in a few mouthfuls and went back to bed. Please, don't tell my mother that I didn't brush... Sorry, Chez Louise, I was saving it for you the next time I saw you - but I was over taken by events.

Of course, my sanity is still be called into question since I traded chocolate for chez. But the chocolate was soft!! :)

Valerie with the munchies?! And we all know what brings on the munchies, don't we? We *gotta* start testing...

Well, since I was only operating the chez trigger, and not a car, testing isn't necessary...

Well, I very much enjoyed the soft chocolate at the time, but the jokes about the squirtable cheese almost made it worth it.... but not quite, mmmm chocolate!
How was it "sitting" in the other room? prominantly displayed?

Hey, not all prizes were food. All I got was Chopsticks and I don't need more fibre in my diet. Of course I could have gotten the stir stick.

Hi Louise,
Yes, the can of chez held a place of honor in my sewing room. Now less so since I emptied half of it. :) Glad I didn't get the pickled pigs feet. It would have been a bit too much like Fear Factor eating that in the middle of the night when I was half looped.

The pigs feet went pretty fast at the pizza party. Thank goodness I didn;t have to eat any myself. Incidentally, I still have 2 cans of spam in the cupboard. One with Chez, one sans-chez. If the vikings come...I'll be ready!

I dunno, I kindof think the prizes were rigged. At one point everyone from SVO got out their prizes and we set them all out on the table at the campsite. It was "meat" products galore, and I use the term meat loosely here. I think I have a picture of them somewhere.

It takes a very devious mind indeed to think that the food prizes at a classy event like the 1000 Day would be rigged. Besides, canned meat products of unknown origin and vintage are surely a celebration of life! When you think about things properly, you see that the SVOers were the lucky ones, exactly like Kraus sings in one of her songs.
