I like egg nog.
I like ice cream.
Mom bought egg nog ice cream.
WOO!

...I like my egg nog with cinnamon and nutmeg added on top.
...Well, hell, egg nog ice cream tastes pretty much just like egg nog. I'd like cinnamon and nutmeg on that, too!

But let me just say, that if you mistakenly pick up garlic instead of cinnamon, and you don't check before pouring it all over your ice cream, and in fact you don't notice something is wrong until you take a bite and your taste buds consider suicide...you will not be happy. You will make this face:
D:

Please, watch what you're doing, and don't pick up the garlic when you really want the cinnamon.

Luckily, this story has a happy ending. I washed out the bowl and tried again, and the results (after using the correct spices) were oh so nummy.

The sound of that almost made me throw up.

Why does a child's laughter make you wretch?

May I ask how you managed to not notice that Garlic = White, Cinnamon = Red?

Um, our powdered garlic is not white, and our cinnamon is brownish. But I didn't look down before taking a bite.

I'm guessing this was straight garlic power? Though foul tasting no matter what kind of garlic it was.

That actually sounds pretty good, to be honest.

In a horribly morbid way, I want to try it.

This is why:
I look at what I'm using first.
I label things clearly.
Garlic comes in cloves, instead of powder.

I'm surprised you didn't notice that your Ice Cream REEKED of Garlic before you took a bite.

Hooray for happy endings though!
