Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Cracklin' Edition

Jeff stares down a bag of pork cracklins... and his own mortality.

What's in the mail? Is it an old T-shirt? A lunchbox full of rusty knives? Video game treasures? Canadian energy drinks?

I didn't know it was possible to transfer flavor through the internet, but watching Jeff pop that whole creme egg in his mouth has definitely left me with that unmistakably horrific "MY MOUTH IS MADE OF SUGAR" feeling. I haven't had a creme egg in years, and I can taste it just as strongly as if I had eaten one right now.

Has living in Canada spoiled me? I've never known a day of my entire life that I was not explicitly aware of chocolate encased popcorn. I love that stuff.

Apparently, the GB crew are bigger fans of crunchy snacks than chewy snacks. Good to see them a bit more positive about a mailbag of junk food. After the big gummy one that didn't go over so well, I was concerned they would continue on like that. As always, proud to say that I pay them money!

European made Cadbury Creme Eggs are different from US made ones in that they actually contain ingredients meant for human consumption.

Creme eggs are kinda sickening, but yeah, one a year is about how many I have as well. I much prefer Cadbury Mini eggs.

Chocolate covered popcorn has become pretty popular here in Sweden too. I thought it was pretty disgusting for the same reason Jeff mention, the chocolate layer is way too thick making you feel sick after the first popcorn, and then you have another 200g of that stuff remaining in the bag.

Porky's are gross. Creme eggs are alright but I agree with Jeff, the cadbury caramel eggs are faaar better. Shame they stopped selling them after easter. Wonder if they have had the cadbury cornflake and raisin clusters? hmmmmmmmmmmmm

When I was in Houston I found this store where they had all sorts of different popcorn and I tried chocolate covered popcorn there. It was okay. Nacho Bacon Popcorn was the best, but none of them were good after your first couple hand fulls.
