Is the 1 - 7 set any different (except packaging) from the separate sets?
Early: You folks are all insane. Simon: Well, my sister's a ship. We had a complicated childhood.
'Objects In Space'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Vampires and human food. Food for humans, not food of humans -- outside of IWRY, what's in canon?
I seem to remember Spike being anomalous (and stating so), but can't think where, with his taste for beer and onion stuff.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I hate there always being an option. Sometimes, the sister needs to bite it.
Yeah, but then someone gets a nifty idea, and suddenly Jason Todd isn't as dead as he seemed.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Angel talked about eating to pass the time rather than for nourishment or taste back in the early seasons of Buffy.

I mentioned it in scans_daily, and now I feel duty-bound to back it up with something other than IWRY (because the shows contradict each other?) Basically -- there was a scan from Tales of the Vampires that stated that vampires loved candy, and I thought it was contradictory.
I could let it slide, but now I'm curious. Someone's written this all up somewhere, I know it. That's what the internet is for.

Maybe Spike like the onion thing for the crunch, not the taste.

What I (vaguely) recall is that Spike liking human food was a Spike thing, and that other vampires got nothing out of it. Either he could taste more, or he craved the faux-humanity of it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Either he could taste more, or he craved the faux-humanity of it.
I think he also mentioned buffalo wings too, becuase they were spicy enough to be interesting.

Huh, it's a scan from alliterator. Small internet.
Per All Things Philosophical...:
- According to The Watchers' Guide, this line was cut from [the Bronze scene in LTM]: Angel says, "I eat sometimes. Not for nutrition, just to pass the time." ...Then there's Spike and his Weetabix (Kansas, Feb 16 15:29 2000).
- In IWRY, Angel explains that food has very little flavor when you're a vampire (as opposed to a mortal), implying he's tried it once or twice.
- In IGYUMS, he eats a meal with a family unaware of his vampiric nature.
I could go with the idea that if everything tastes blander, you seek out food with stronger flavors. So candy seems handwavable, but I'd have to strike the "with the heightened senses" line.
Mostly, I'm shocked he didn't go for Pez.
