i wish this trend of pump nozzles was over. you know what i mean by pump nozzles, just think of shampoo’s, cosmetic products, soaps…they are all dispensed from irritating nozzles.
a lot of people are pro-nozzle, i am not. i simply cannot stand the crusty bits that cling to the nozzle, that create a clump on my face/in my hair/on my smokie. crusty bits cannot be reabsorbed into their previous form and are doomed to remain crusty. even if by some chance i don’t get a crusty bit, i am always expecting it, which is irritating as well.
my distaste for crust goes back a fair number of years. when i was in high school, in preparation for college money i got a job waitressing. one of the grossest jobs there was, and one i always tried to avoid, was cleaning the ketchup bottles at the end of the day. the crust clinging to the glass was dis-goss-ting.
however, i am nothing if not fickle, and if i were to see a piece of crusted gruyere cheese clinging to an earthenware bowl with steaming hot french onion soup contained within, i would painstakingly peel aforementioned cheese and savour every moment that i wrapped it around my teeth and tongue, before reluctantly swallowing it. ditto for little crustie cheetos.
i guess if we had to categorise it, crusty is welcomed if it is an independent food, but not okay if it is a product meant to be in a liquid form.
today’s blog has been sponsored by four children with snotty noses and all their friends who sport the same crust and tap like nasal originated fluids.
