SnackManiac takes a bite out of the big apple: PART II: a snack for the FAMILY

Exhausted from earlier snacking, we stopped in Little Italy for a cannoli.

Café Palermo advertises "The Best Cannoli on the Entire Planet." That is the sort of claim that SnackManiac respects. There I had the pleasure of seeing a fellow snacks-pert in action, as the self-proclaimed CANNOLI KING made the rounds of his shop. (He looked relatively young and well-rested for someone who has obviously scoured the PLANET for other, potentially superior, cannolis.)

I can't believe you couldn't tie in a Sopranos reference here. Snackmaniac, you're getting sloppy.

I guess my reference to the FAMILY was too nuanced for you.

Ok, how about this:

"The cannoli was so delicious my mind went blank as soon as I took the first bite. And then I cranked up the Journey."

Better?

Please forgive me, Snackmaniac! I'm sorry! I'm a mere snacking and pop culture novice compared to you.

Anyhoo, I was at that same place not two weeks ago. Their cannoli's aint what they used to be...

Certainly not how *I* would build the audience, IMHO.

(I apologize! Have mercy on me Snackmaniac!)

Dear fellow snackers,

Please accept my humble apologies. Sometimes I forget just how much power my words carry. I don't want you to live in fear of SnackManiac and my unparalleled command of snacks. I want the conversation I have started on snacking to flow as freely as a chocolate fountain.

Love,
SM
