Campbell's Jazzy Jambalaya is not great. Taste is ok, but it is definitely soup. I would call it disappointing, but it's about what I expected. I don't know why I felt compelled to try it, but if that tiny chance that it was good had paid off I would have been pretty excited.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Then I picked up what I thought was a double chocolate muffin that I think is actually bran, so, on balance, still Monday.
Actual words my mother said to me last week: "I'm so disappointed with those pumpkin muffins [friend] made! I thought those were raisins, but they are chocolate chips!"
What the actual fuck? I mean, I like a good raisin, but who wouldn't rather have chocolate? My mother, apparently.
I have to admit, I find chocolate in pumpkin a little weird. I don't mind it when I eat it, but I find it conceptually dissonant somehow.
I'm sure your mother is a lovely person, Jesse, but she's clearly on the wrong side when it comes to pumpkin muffins.
So I keep getting feedback about Friday, and it's still all in the good category. So that's good. But I am also reminding myself that people who were unimpressed with me are not likely to say so to my face.

I like chocolate, but there are many places it does not belong. Macaroons, for example -drowns out the coconut. Also cheesecake for similar reasons. IMO of course. Your goat may vary.
Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are one of the triumphs of human civilization.
On chocolate and pumpkin I have no opinion because have not tried.
I'm sure your mother is a lovely person, Jesse, but she's clearly on the wrong side when it comes to pumpkin muffins.
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT!
Also chocolate macaroons are delicious, as are Mounds candy bars, which are basically the same thing.
In most cases I would prefer a raisin to a chocolate chip.
