An exceptional piece of food writing, taken from a foodie magazine called The Lucky Peach. It just struck me; I think it's beautiful in its whimsy. In the article, the Texas-born author was reminiscing about the foods he makes sure to eat whenever he heads home:
"6. Peanut Patties, which are sometimes called peanut rounders. They are shockingly pink peanut-imbued sugar monstrosities shaped like flattened universes. They are getting harder to find. They are going extinct. The world is darkening. The fairies are getting weak."
Brilliant. And, in case you are curious, I found an image of these elusive Peanut Patties. They are appropriately repulsive, and appropriately Texan.
