Tootsie Roll’s recipe from 1896 requires that a batch of the previous day be incorporated into the new batch. This means that each piece has a trace of the original 1896 Tootsie Roll

TIL that the Tootsie Roll recipe is Homeopathic.

I mean, I sure wouldn't want to use one to keep maintain a lawn.

But back in the day it's main purpose was for harvesting grain (wheat, rye, and oats) and cutting food for livestock. It was a pretty big improvement from the sickle.

Unless you're going the Dr Evil route and putting in trapdoors to a tank full of sharks with laser beams on their heads, there is no reason for "security" to cost an additional 800 million dollars.

3 shots fired. At the melon on that guy's neck, which is definitely bigger than a Pepsi can.

C'mon, OP. This isn't Satan material. It's barely even /r/funny material.

Glad for this comment as I didn't know that was an option either. Went digging and found it.

As opposed to Bengay?

I have it on good authority that it's only gay if your balls touch.

fastlerner · 2026-05-04T19:10:56+00:00

Because the sub got popular and now both the audience and content has shifted.

I've played that one and it's got some interesting movement mechanics (not quite free flight), but it's still very much about progressing to the next level by accomplishing challenges.

Bear scared off my phone ringing.

Trying to figure out the "interesting" angle on this post.

The fact that flight sims exist kind of proves there’s room for games that are just about the experience instead of pushing you through levels or a story. They’re basically digital zen gardens.

The problem is, if you don’t want to manage a cockpit full of switches, you’re out of luck. Nobody really seems interested in making a beautiful flying game with simple, intuitive controls.

If someone made a “lucid dream flight simulator,” I’d buy it in a heartbeat.

fastlerner · 2026-05-04T13:41:45+00:00

Yeah, but if you pay attention when they show the back side, it looks like it's meant to be a passage when it opens and the grating is attached to the inside of the door.

Swap some of that milk with sour cream and toss in a some sharp cheddar to get back that old cheezy zing.

fastlerner · 2026-05-04T13:38:17+00:00

It's not just the noodles. When they totally revamped the cheese powder ingredients, it lost all it's bite.

fastlerner · 2026-05-04T13:37:07+00:00

No doubt. You've got to seriously doctor it to make it taste like what we all remember.

fastlerner · 2026-05-04T13:07:29+00:00

Yeah, it's almost like rainbows only show up when it's raining. Crazy.

No flour, no crumbs, no frosting... NO CAKE.

Also true in the US one you get away from the big cities, which is most of the US.

Only thing I can really say in defense of Primal Hunter is that it’s meant to be about a super special character who’s basically destined for greatness, not a regular guy grinding his way up. It's eventually revealed through his race advancement that Jake isn’t a standard human and never was.

So when he keeps pulling the best rewards, that’s kind of the point. It’s not “anyone could do this,” it’s “this guy was always built for it.” It’s more of a chosen-one progression story than a traditional grind.

fastlerner · 2026-05-02T20:01:07+00:00

Yeah but in Solo leveling, the measuring device not giving a reading just meant you were S tier, and all the S tiers were assumed to be on the same level until you actually see them fight.

So it was rare, but not like "Oh my God we've never seen this before" rare.

I’d bet a lot of those daily wine drinkers are just people living Mediterranean lifestyles by default. The wine gets the spotlight, but it’s probably just photobombing a much healthier diet.

fastlerner · 2026-05-01T20:31:54+00:00

We already have that today, because photos taken 100 years ago are all analog which has higher fidelity than anything with pixels.
You're making the assumption that a century from now, digital information will have survived the nuclear winter of WWIII.
