Would You Rather Eat Peanuts or Cracker Jacks?

July 6, 2008

Celebrating America's birthday got me thinking about America's pastime, and unfortunately, that means that "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" is stuck in my head. Though the lyric demands peanuts and Cracker Jacks, which one would you pick if forced to choose?

If I have to choose between the two it's cracker jack. But normally I have a hot dog, beer, and garlic fries. Oh and AmberHoney Go Giants! :)

That's like asking "What would you like to have? This aspirin pill or this nice rock of crack." Cracker jacks all the way.

Leaving a huge pile of peanut shells (or, indeed, throwing them at fans of the opposing team) is a part of baseball that I never get tired of. It's baseball tradition, like the the extra-innings beers we buy at last call during the 7th. If we're behind, we hope we get to drink 'em in the 10th. If we're ahead, we'll chug 'em in celebration when we win.

I was recently at a Giants game and the people in the row behind me were eating peanuts. It took my sister and I several minutes before we realized what was with all the random ashes that were falling on us. We all had peanut shell dandruff.

i never used to like cracker jacks, but lately they've been ok - so i think that i would prefer them at the ballpark these days. i would normally say peanuts, but with shells it's just too messy.
