- WHERE ARE THE BEANS?
O.K. What’s the deal? What happened to Campbell’s Pork and Beans?
After working my usual 8-5
insanity, I stop at WalMart on the way home to pick up a few things. I should know better. A few things at WalMart is next to
impossible. First of all, the minute I
hit the front door, I forget what few items I want. Thus I walk around the store throwing “little”
things into my basket. Second, the
crying kids, the rude adults with their baskets in the middle of the isle, and
the two checkers on duty is the same at 5:30 as it is at noon.
I’m going to a cookout this
weekend. I want to bring baked
beans. I make mean baked beans. As you can guess, the main ingredient to
baked beans is the bean. Campbell’s Pork
and Beans are the best. I grew up with
Campbell’s Pork and Beans. It’s sacrilegious
to use anything but Campbell’s Pork and Beans.
But guess what? No damn Campbell’s
Pork and Beans!!!
What happened?
There’s a gob of Campbell
Soups. But no beans.
There are: Bush’s beans, Van Camp
beans, Giant Value beans, beans with molasses, beans with maple, beans with
onions, beans with brown sugar, but no Campbell’s Pork and Beans.
AGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!
Tooth paste is almost as
bad. Plain ol’ Crest toothpaste is the
best. They have Crest with mouthwash,
Crest with whitening, Mint Crest, Mint Crest Gel, Spearmint Crest, Spearmint
Crest Gel, Crest for sensitive teeth, Crest Pro-Health, but regular Crest with
nothing? Hard to find.
AGGGGGGGGGGGGG !!!!!!
My few items cost a small
fortune. I have to settle for something other than
Campbell’s
beans. And, damn it! I forgot the toothpaste
AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!
Bean there, done THAT!!! :-D

DeletePoor Dixie! Life used to be much simpler, eh? Big hugs!
ReplyDeleteYes! Life wsa simpler and so much better.
DeleteIt's so frustrating, ain't it? That's why I like shopping in Huntsville. No Super Center. Wal-Mart has dog food and a pharamacy and Harp's is right next door. Don't expect to find brandname coffee or ladyfingers, but if you need beans, you're sure to find them. Life was a lot more fun when it was simple!
ReplyDeleteI bet if I went to Piggy Wiggly I could find Campbell's Pork and Beans right by the Moon Pies!
