Ha!

ROFL. Way to go, Aleta. Yes we need an article on Eggnog. By the way, we have a joke around my house about the recipe for eggnog. One egg and one nog, blended. :D Stephen Ewen 03:00, 5 December 2007 (CST)

Okay, I shouldn't fuss (but you know me)--eggnog should be served from a punchbowl into little glass cups. And...is that ice? OMG!!! Aleta Curry 20:32, 8 December 2007 (CST)

There oughta be a law...!

I am viewing the packaging of a commercial product named "Egg Nog". I present it for your reding and gastronomic pleasure: Reduced Fat Milk (94%) (1.6% Milkfat), Sugar [to me, that implies "sucrose"; given the taste, I find that claim suspect], Whole Egg (1%) [No, you read that right--ONE PERCENT] flavours [one of which is probably aspertame, the other artifical vanilla], stabiliser (407,452), (we can only hope that's safe for human consumption] colour (160a) [ditto on the hope]. For some reason, "sodium" makes it onto the "nutrition information", but it's not listed as an ingredient. Hmmm....

It should be illegal for anything which is 1% egg to be called egg nog. Further, this is unpalatable. I would describe the taste, but this is a family show. Utterly disgusting.</rant> Aleta Curry 17:01, 18 December 2007 (CST)
