It’s never too early for some of those holiday delectables – you know the kind that fine fast food franchises bring out annually and that science invest millions in development. Some personal favorites are the processed pork McDonald’s McRib, Cadbury eggs (I’m a huge fan!!!!) or pumpkin pie shakes (the best are at Culver’s). But tonight I found a fantastic new holiday tradition one that will be celebrated in my home and arteries for years…the Chick-Fil-A Peppermint Chocolate Chip Shake (hurry out to get one as of post day on this entry there are only 50 days left to get it). I don’t know why peppermint is a Christmas treat, it’s not as though peppermint isn’t available year round in gum and breath mints. Peppermint is the traditional flavor of candy canes but it’s the shape not the flavor that’s novel. Yet, why question a blessing of this magnitude? I’m just thankful that every time I’m bored with the common, banal cuisine of “everyday” science develops something new. An American taste treat like Peeps at Easter, Filet-O-Fish (on sale during Lent…no seriously), or Shamrock Shakes come to the rescue. Science has taken us so far in just 100 years, we can make meat patties in the shape of ribs, chocolate eggs with a slimy center, green milkshakes that taste like kaopectate. What a time to be alive! What a time to be a fast food consumer! I’m filled with hope for tomorrow, red or blue can’t take away my green food. Science can’t be stopped! Just remember to get a soda with no ice – apparently it has more germs than toilet water (click here for details).
