    Pumpkin Fudge may actually be the most AMERICAN snack that Disneyland has to offer!

Listen carefully, dear, and I am sure you will come to your senses and throw your considerable advertising skills behind the snack that so richly deserves to win the 2007 Snackie Award. . . yes, the cookies from Pooh Corner. Are you listening? Okay, good, here it comes, the infallible, irrefutable proof that the cookies deserve to win. They have chocolate. And chunks.

    Honestly, JB, it's a bit worrisome to me that you have not already come to this conclusion on your own. But I have no doubt that you have now seen the error of your ways and will join me in championing the. . . uh. . . champion.

    As you walk through the park, munching happily (and sharing with your traveling companions) you're enjoying Walt's Chosen Snack. Aaaaahhhhh. Perfection. The Happiets Snaock on Earth in the Happiest Place on Earth.

    Instead, I will continue to be a voice crying out in the wilderness - praising the unsung and "available for a limited time" snack that calls to us to welcome autumn and embrace the change of season. A snack that is so special it can only be made available once a year. Now that is special!

    I can respect your commitment, JB. I shall soldier on valiantly as the (thus far) lone advocate of the chocolate chunk cookies from Greetings From California and the little shop way back in Critter Country whose name shall not be mentioned anymore in my Snackie campaigning.

    And what other snack has such sexy exotic sounding descriptions.

    And speaking of clean and righteous and pure, what beloved Disney icons are the very epitome of childhood innocence? That's right, that willy nilly silly old bear and his Hundred Acre Wood friends. And where are those delicious little discs from heaven, the chocolate chunk cookies sold? That's right, in Greetings From California and that little shop tucked way in the back of Critter Country which sells a variety of Hundred Acre Wood merchandise and the name of which I no longer mention in my Snackie campaigning.

    <---is desperately hoping that run-on sentences are one of 2oony's favorite literary devices.

    But only because I'm craving one, and don't know if I can wait 10 and a half days for one.

    <--- Won't even considered touching, let alone EATING anything in "POOH Corner" which contains brown chunks, and advices anyone else to exercise extreme caution when placing Pooh Chunck cookies in your mouth.

    A Skewer as a main course, with a side of a Jalepeno Cheese Pretzels, with a Dole Whip Float to wash it down, and a Churro for dessert is infinitely more satisfying to the taste buds.

    <--- exit, stage right, Boing-ga-dee Boing-ga-dee
