It’s just almond paste. The fact that I have to hear about violent brawls over a spread seems really messed up to me. Then again, the world is slowly losing its collective mind oer all sorts of things, so I shouldn’t be surprised about something like this. Beating the junk out of someone so that you can get what you think you need has become a badge of honour. That will always seem odd to me. Maybe I’m the crazy one though. Maybe it’s the way things are expected to be as of lately. Having patience is seen as weakness? I’ll never understand that. Is it worth someone elses life just to get a small discount on a luxury product? I don’t think so, but again, maybe I’m the one who’s lost it. Sometimes it’s hard to understand how acceptable these things can be in industrialized countries that have more than we really need. There wasn’t even a Nutella shortage. It just doesn’t make sense to me. It’s not like they’re going to discontinue it. They know people like it.
