The Candy Man Can!

Though in real life he was kind of a nasty bugger, he'll have to do for today because we haven't received a lunch report from the Monz. Here he is waxing nostalgic on his favorite childhood candy. At the time the only kind of sweets available were unbranded, handmade penny candies. Dahl favored a sherbert sucker wrapped in licorice: "you sucked the sherbert [powder] up through the straw and when it was finished you at the licorice...the sherbert fizzed in your mouth, and if you knew how to do it, you could make white froth come out of your nostrils..."

Who the hell is Dahl? And my lunch was cold tortellini on my way to court. It was yummy.  
Woah, Monz updates himself! Dahl=Roald (not Steve - this blog is insane coho-lip free)  
Ummm . . . I was a card-carrying Coho-Lip. I think this blog has plenty of Coho in its background!
