It’s 1903 and you’ve just seen the Wright brothers plane fly over your head. What snack do you pair with your amazement?

A well buttered corn on the cob of course. Frozen in awe of the incredible sight, I choke on a kernel and die as the Heimlich maneuver hasn’t been invented yet.

It’s 1974 and you’ve just arrived at the Ramones first show at CBGB’s. What did you pick up at the bodega before hand?

I’m underage so I’ve smuggled in a handful of liquor chocolates in my back pocket hoping to get a buzz going, but they’ve all melted leaving a huge brown stain on my flare-jeaned ass.

It’s 1215 and you’re present at the signing of the Magna Carta. What will hold you over until the great feast?

I’m in the last row in the far corner of the room stuffing carrot sticks into my face as quietly as possible. My wife has put me on a rabbit food diet since that morning she noticed my sword belt doesn’t buckle anymore.

It’s 1969 and you’ve just landed on the moon. What celebratory freeze-dried treat will you scarf down once you’re back in the L.E.M.?

Beans for mean farts. That will show Neil for cutting in and stepping out first.

It’s 2456 and the generation ship has finally found an inhabitable planet. What’s the first thing you nibble on this second Earth’s surface?

A yakitori of any fauna I can find. I wanna sample as many species asap.
