Quote from the sandwich creator:
He said: "I wanted to say 'If money was no object, what would you put in a sandwich?'.
"It wasn't just a case of using the most expensive produce, the flavours are exceptional, they marry really well.
"You get absolutely amazing taste from every level as opposed to a taste explosion."

Why was I not informed about the banana twinkies?

Eh, he's probably gilding the lilly. What would he say alternatively? "Oh, it tastes pretty good, but mostly I want a bunch of write-ups and to see what yuppies I can gouge!"
So much of "this is the

" be it food or clothes or art is hype anyway. Lilly gilding is part of the game.
I can even taste it if I eat just the beef in beef & brocolli, because the flavor's worked it's way into the sauce.
I support you on this. Not with brocoli in particular, though it's right on the border of what I can swallow, but some foods taint everything they touch. Peanuts are the worst. If you stack a chocolate chip cookie on a peanut butter cookie, the chocolate chip cookie will smell like peanut butter and I can't eat it. And I will be very sad as a result.
The seafood conversation made me want lobster. Actually, I've vaguely wanted to have lobster for a while, but I feel much more vehement about it now.
The red button is the best thing ever.
At least with the Kobe beef, you're pretty sure you're avoiding mad cow issues....

Mmmmmm. Peanuts. I love me some nut-like legumes. But it's true - you can taste peanuts in anything they come in contact with. I think coconut is similar.
