the one where i talk about fruit roll-ups
I have a new vice, and my new vice is the fruit roll-up. They make me feel like a kid, and I can honestly say right now I’d rather eat a fruit roll-up than a box of chocolates. They’re not even that bad for you. Fifty calories per serving, very low in fat, twelve grams of (empty) carbs. The problem with eating fruit roll-ups as an adult is that one roll is never enough. And the fact that my electric-blue fruit roll up was made from real fruit is a little disturbing. Also, interestingly enough, Fruit Roll-Ups is actually a brand name that is synonymous with its product, kind of like Kleenex, although I’m sure the term fruit roll-up was used before General Mills trademarked it. Call me crazy, but I thought there was a specific term for that brand name/product relationship, but Google couldn’t find me one.
Actually, I have two new vices, and the second one is listening to the Ambient radio stations on iTunes. I partook of both my new vices while composing this entry.
