Let's go BANANAS!
calls @brisby
I think you'd like these. ;)
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@svashta/wild-west-chapter-9-part-5-5-minute-freewrite-challenge
Chocolate covered banana snacks!!! (Brisby scurries up Svashta's shoulder and snatches a packet. Shreds of plastic rain down. Before the pieces hit the floor, the treat is devoured. Lustfully eyeing the rest, she demands, "MOAR!!!)
shakes head in an attempt to gather thoughts and realize what just happened
Smiles at @brisby and wiggles another unopened snack in the air
Another?
What! They actually sell those? I have never tried one.
They sell those in Italy too, but I have to admit that those I bought in Slovenia are totally a blast!
And for the synthetic banana flavor: it's different from real banana because it was synthetized from a banana variety that is estinguished since 1950's. But it tastes like heaven!
Oh gosh darn it, now I really wanna try them. (Looks around to see if anyone is watching. Reaches magically self through computer, sneaks to kitchen in search of those snacks. Grabs a few and runs back to computer, and steps back in.)
You... HAVE TO!
On a side note, though, they do taste exactly like what you would imagine an artificial banana would taste like. Wrapped in chocolate, of course.
Some like it, some don't... same thing as strawberries... Some like the artificial strawberry flavoring, and some don't...
Me?
I just love everything that tastes like plastic and unhealthy chemicals.
I'm a chemist, too, so.... it kind of goes hand in hand... :P
There's plenty variations too, these are store brand (SPAR), but you've got "regular" brands like Casalli also. :p
Lol, or I could go for the healthy option, and make my own. :)
Speaking of which, though... I might just try and freeze these... Might turn out swell! Will keep you updated! :D
And no chemicals involved, except freezer burn, if you leave them in there too long in wrong type of bag :)
I am happy to inform you they turned out great!
Maybe not for everyone because of the frozen chocolate on the outside, but the insides sure taste awesome when frozen! 9/10.
WouldWill eat again.Speaking of which, though... I might just try and freeze these... Might turn out swell! Will keep you updated! :D
Is it a really banana? I don't do the fake stuff.
You mean to tell me this is fake?!
What's the real banana like, then?
I have not a clue. I was attempting to find out. What do the ingredients say it has in it?
It says:
Banana with chocolate
Ingredients: Fake-ass banana (80%), chocolate (20%).
Expiration date: Don't fool yourself. You'll eat this today.
It looks like a legit label, so... I don't know...
Maybe @brisby knows?
Mmm..I'm assuming the inside is a banana flavored creme mix. I suppose it's better than eating the wrapper. Probably. (Is the flavor anything like those hard banana runts candies?)
Describe hard banana runts.
How hard are they?
But yes, I believe the flavor is similar. Artificial banana. Can't mistake that. :P
The wrapper is real good too, though. It's even BPA free, so you poop it right out - unaltered! :D
if you like choco banana, here is something you should def try this
What is this?!
And why is it not inside of me yet!!?
is it actual banana in that? we have similar snacks here but they're in the freezer section! yum. frozen banana slices covered in chocolate.....
No, silly, of course not. :P Artificial all the way through! :D
Hmmm. You make a fair point with your frozen bananas though.. I'll go make some myself. :3
So is it candy? Or a freeze dried banana? Yes, Ill admit to being lazy and buying the pre-made, pre-packaged, pre calorie counted packets LOL. They have strawberry ones too, but those are kind of hit or miss depending on the ripeness of the strawberry.
It's.. soft, kinda like foam would be? but falls apart easily in your mouth. Damn, i'm not good at describing this haha :D
Haha :D Definitely has its perks, yeap! :P But if we're talking frozen... I can't get enough of icecream. Winter, or summer, I just can't get enough of it. hha :D Oh, and, if you just freeze grapes, they turn out pretty cool too. :p Good for those times you get a craving for something frozen and sweet. Keeps your tongue busy well. :P
I'd imagine, yeah! Strawberry anything is hit or miss, really... they taste like water too often times, not even like strawberry. :|
LOL its ok, I think I know exactly what you mean. Sort of like a marshmallow, but harder...more chewy, but dissolves quickly bc its pure sugar? Like those disgusting circus peanut candies?
I LOVE ICE CREAM!!! Mint Choc Chip is my favorite. I dont like the texture of frozen grapes! Tastes like a grape slush but the consistency grosses me out haha.
We have pick your own strawberries here....at the right time of year they are SO sweet and delicious!
Mmmm, yeah, kind of. :P
Never tried that O.O I NEED! GIVE! ME! NAO! :P
I think I'd go with straciatella as my favorite, or even vanilla. How boring, I know.
!!!!! Where do you live again? I'm coming! :P
Im in San Diego - lets go for ice cream!!! :D
I will eat it all!
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@scribblingramma/in-the-park-part-10-selfie-freewrite-contest-day-11-prompt-appetite
Do it! Do it!
I got into the ice cream!
Yes! Excellent choice!

x)
I know what you mean about the selfie's! Uggghhh.
haha they are so not my thing! i thought the writing part would be my biggest challenge, but it was the photos LOL
I feel you, I'm tired of my own selfie game! But sorry to see you go. <3
LOL I just ran out of steam to be creative with it. I will be back, though :)
I will miss you, but I understand entirely. I may be the next to go!
I'll be back for some free writes! Hopefully no selfies next time, hehehe. Good luck, stay strong!!!
However dear we all know you by now eventhough without the selfie here. 💖
yay! that's the main reason I tried out the contest - to meet new people and do something out of my comfort zone. I knew I'd never make it long enough to win haha.
You sure have made alot of friends. And glad to meet you too.
Sorry to see you go @madpotters. This is a challenge!!!
It's been fun getting to know you through your freewrites! I'll be back, just without all the selfies next time, lol.
I miss your beautiful face already. I'll miss seeing you. Steem on.
aww, you are so sweet! Ill be back for the free writes, and maybe an occasional selfie but they really are not my thing. xoxo!
I'm going to miss you too @madpotters! And not you too @scribblingramma! 😢
xoxo ill be back for free writes! it's been awesome getting to know everyone through this contest, and I'm glad I lasted as long as I did :D
Well, if you're happy, I'm happy! Haha Glad you came and met some of us and glad you'll do more freewrites! 💙
:( sorry to see you go when I finally get home and have time to read again!! but yes, it's not easy to keep up!
I thought the writing would be the biggest hurdle for me, but it was actually the selfies!! Thank you for always encouraging me, I'll be back for free writes - they aren't so bad after all :D xoxo
Hi, I am not sure you want to pass this contest. Good luck to your other steemit tasks.
Cheers
I know....such a good contest, I've met so many awesome people from #freewritehouse! Not to mention the prize, but I knew I'd never make it with the selfie aspect. I joined just for fun and to connect with new people like yourself :D
Ok I visited the sea world in San Diego in mid 1980's and I wonder any major change in infra structure there
just stay on with Steemit and keep in touch
Cheers
I think I visited Sea World in the mid-80s too! LOL. Maybe we've crossed paths before. I haven't been to any of the major attractions yet since moving here, can you believe it? Although I don't know that I would give Sea World my money after seeing that Black Fish documentary. I'd love to volunteer with their rescue efforts though, they do some good work with that.
ha..ha... perhaps we have crossed bath before and god has arranged for us to meet in Steemit.
Anyway, there was a trip that was so long ago. I could hardly remember how it looks like except the dolphin show.
Cheers
Thank you for playing!!! Iknow it took a lot of arm twisting to get you to give it a try!!! It was great fun playing the Freewrite selfie game with you :)
Well thank you for twisting my arm :D I had a lot of fun, and mostly I enjoyed meeting new friends and getting to know people through their writing styles. I was never here for the prize anyways, you know I balked at the 50 days thing and I just KNEW these amazing writers would be IN IT TO WIN IT!!! Good luck everyone!!! Thank you all for the well wishes.
The only thing I could think about was the time I took my toddlers on a train trip to Disneyland and the Amtrak killer was loose: https://steemit.com/contest/@wordymouth/feeling-hungry-on-the-southwest-chief
