- 1:38Speaker 1: but it was.

- 1:43Speaker 4: magazine cookbook thing.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Yeah, so, which was when it's upside down? What's what's
- 1:47Speaker 3: the upside down part? Because that looks like side up?
- 1:50Speaker 5: Will you flip it over so that that that part
- 1:52Speaker 5: that you're looking at on the left is on the
- 1:55Speaker 5: bott that's on the bottom, so it's upside down. It
- 1:57Speaker 5: looks like the top, is it? It is the top
- 2:01Speaker 5: until you clip it over and topside down, So.
- 2:07Speaker 1: There you go. Anyway, it's like the top. It was delicious.

- 2:15Speaker 4: Okay, so this is so I don't know the side beside.
- 2:20Speaker 4: This is the side beside. I mean, we know which
- 2:23Speaker 4: one is going to be better?

- 2:28Speaker 5: a couple of these yesterday and mate, well we'll see.
- 2:32Speaker 1: So we got regular here here.

- 2:41Speaker 3: You can have another one if you want. It's the
- 2:45Speaker 3: regular straight ahead. Because we had a story last week
- 2:48Speaker 3: about the actual grandson of or the nephew of, like
- 2:55Speaker 3: his name.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Was Jake Reese or something.
- 2:57Speaker 5: People said that they changed the recipe and he was
- 3:02Speaker 5: outraged about it. Okay, I just took a bite of
- 3:05Speaker 5: the reeses. M. That's pretty good. That's too salty.
- 3:11Speaker 1: What's good about it?
- 3:14Speaker 2: And this trader Joe one, I can't even tell that's
- 3:17Speaker 2: peanut butter.
- 3:20Speaker 1: It's not.
- 3:21Speaker 2: It's not peanut buttery enough.
- 3:25Speaker 5: Mm hm hm no, right, no, Trader, the peanut butter
- 3:31Speaker 5: flavor isn't as strong as the Yeah, because it's not salty.
- 3:36Speaker 5: You have this one salty a little bit. I'd go
- 3:41Speaker 5: as far as to say this one's more salty.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Than that one.
- 3:44Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm a I'm a I'm a Reese's.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Girl like that?
- 3:49Speaker 5: Why I like the Traders Joe. Trader Joe, it's oh
- 3:53Speaker 5: it is. Yeah, there is a salty aftertaste, but I
- 3:57Speaker 5: like the creamy it's creamy peanut butter rather than whatever
- 4:01Speaker 5: this is.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Why do you call it Trader Joe and not Trader Joe's.
- 4:05Speaker 1: I don't know. That's fine, just like Reese's.
- 4:15Speaker 2: There's an ass.
- 4:16Speaker 4: Listen, you leave him alone. Bill would never correct someone
- 4:20Speaker 4: saying words.
- 4:21Speaker 5: Wrong, all right, While my response was I don't know,
- 4:24Speaker 5: I don't know, and.
- 4:26Speaker 1: You know what, I don't care. And do you know what?
- 4:29Speaker 2: I count Reese's as a serving of protein?
- 4:33Speaker 1: You do?
- 4:35Speaker 3: Peanut Butter's got a protein, isn't it. This is almost
- 4:38Speaker 3: as good as.
- 4:39Speaker 4: You know your last name, Kennedy serving a protein?
- 4:44Speaker 1: I agree with Gina.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I think it counts.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Serving a protein.
- 4:51Speaker 2: I think it does too right.
- 4:53Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, you probably eat nothing but that.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a help. Do you remember when
- 4:59Speaker 2: they used to do add for Snickers and they acted like.
- 5:01Speaker 1: These are the good thing.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Well they still do well, like energy bars health Well.
- 5:06Speaker 4: That's because energy bars are candy bars. So Snickers looked
- 5:10Speaker 4: at it and went, well, that's what we make. Yeah, oh,
- 5:12Speaker 4: let's do the same thing. Yeah, they still they still
- 5:15Speaker 4: use that.
- 5:15Speaker 2: It works though.
- 5:16Speaker 3: If I if I if I'm standing in front of
- 5:19Speaker 3: the candy aisle and I'm trying to make a healthy choice,
- 5:22Speaker 3: which is a funny sentence to say, yes, but I've
- 5:24Speaker 3: had that thought before.
- 5:26Speaker 1: Have you ever done that at Trader Joe?
- 5:28Speaker 2: No, what is the healthy choice here?
- 5:30Speaker 3: I think, Well, Snickers, because you know it's got peanuts
- 5:33Speaker 3: in it.
- 5:34Speaker 2: That's that's a healthy choice.
- 5:36Speaker 1: You know, peanuts, they're good for you, they are.
- 5:38Speaker 5: Here's why I say I just here's why I say
- 5:40Speaker 5: Trader Joe because there's a guy. There was a guy
- 5:44Speaker 5: named Trader Joe, and he opened this store, and the
- 5:48Speaker 5: store is Trader Joe's store. Well, I like to think
- 5:51Speaker 5: that I just get those directly from Trader Joe.
- 5:54Speaker 4: Even though he's probably I believe he is long He
- 5:58Speaker 4: has snacks from a dead man.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Okay.
- 6:02Speaker 2: And what about Trader vic he's long dead.
- 6:04Speaker 5: Too, he's long dead too. But they're reopening the Trader Vicks.
- 6:07Speaker 5: There's still somewhere around in the world. They're reopening some
- 6:10Speaker 5: more of them.
- 6:11Speaker 2: In the carry And I had a very famous adventure
- 6:14Speaker 2: at Traders.
- 6:14Speaker 5: I don't care for Trader Vics. I'd rather go to
- 6:17Speaker 5: don the Beachcomber was the rival to Trade. I don't
- 6:21Speaker 5: know the beach, look it up. I'll go to a
- 6:23Speaker 5: very strong rival to Traders. I'll go to Trader Sam's.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Where's that one, because there's only one of those. Trader
- 6:31Speaker 2: Sam's is where Disneyland?
- 6:33Speaker 1: Oh all right,
