Laughing in my car!

The Boston baked beans episode had my rolling in my front seat! Years ago I too purchased a crock of Boston baked beans in the airport. I’m pretty sure I waited a year to eat them. But I ate them all, stale or not, there is just something about them!

I love this podcast even with the decidedly west coast slant to your candy opinions! Or maybe I’m just old…?
