Cranberry Alert - Redux

Bulletin, bulletin, bulletin. Just in time to be 9 days late for Thanksgiving but 21 days early for Xmas, Walmart has a mountain of OceanSpray Cranberry Sauce cans (filled with said product, obviously) erected in front of the Fruit and Veggie department. Expiration date on can bottom is July, 2011, so stock up for now and possibly later. We even left some for the rest of you.

 

All I saw was the "jellied" type, did I miss the one with actual berries in it?

 

Ha! Give 'em an inch, they want a foot. Give 'em a foot, they want a yard.

Methinks that if you want jellied cranberries, you're gonna have to boil 'em up yourself (if you can find them here in the land of Unobtavia). Smoothly homogenized, berry-free, cranberry sauce is all you're gonna get at Walmart, the American store in Mexico that somehow manages to be out of sync with America 99% of the time.

 

I bought the jellied stuff, but honestly I had to ask a friend how you serve it. I mean it's just so middle-America that I have no experience with it. (I'm used to making my own cranberry sauce.)

I'm still recovering from eating Thanksgiving dinner sitting on the sidewalk at El Padrino's. That about did my head in.

Next thing you know I'm gonna end up in a photo on the People of Walmart site. What is becoming of me?

 

I didn't know it's gotten this bad. Is it time for an intervention?

 

It's far too late for intervention. I'll settle for proper cranberry sauce, the kind with actual cranberries in it. Haha.

 

Just for you.

 

Thanks Mix! I'm growing cranberries in my Farmville game, but it's just not the same as the real thing.
