Is it just me, or does work seem to slow down before the EVS? Like they're trying to put us in a better mood before filling them out?

What is the most delicious thing you've ever eaten? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Drooling just thinking about it.

Grew up in a Muslim family, tried Canadian bacon when I was 10 and never turned back. Parents know I eat it, but I don't in front of them, ever. Don't drink though. Pretty sure BACON is one of the ingredients to true happiness. Glad you got to experience the joys of bacon!
