“Or can there be a more perfect pairing than the chocolate and peanut butter in the Tagalongs®?”*
The answer is no.
How do I know this? From the unfulfilled longing for this year’s Tagalongs®. That’s right – unfulfilled. See this year, as part of my civic duty, I ordered some Girl Scout cookies. Two boxes of Thin Mints for Dave and a box of Tagalongs® for me. Well, the poor Girl Scout’s mom got confused when handing out the cookies and I wound up with a box of Do-Si-Dos®.** Do-Si Dos?® Really? Do you see chocolate with that peanut butter?
As you can imagine, I was outraged. Fortunately, my filter was on and I refrained from saying – “What the hell is the matter with you? A Do-Si-Do® IS NOT a Tagalong®!!”
So it goes without saying that I totally agree with Jen Lancaster. There is NOTHING that compares to a Tagalong®.
