Stove Top Passing

The inventor of Stove Top stuffing passed away on Nov. 13; never mind that the media found it amusing to announce her death the day before Thanksgiving, of all days. Man, I loves me some Stove Top - if my brother was the Puddin' Boy growing up, I was the Stove Top Boy, as it was my job every Sunday to make the stuffing. I like mine slightly dry, and with more butter than water (surprise.) And since this is a post of mourning, I won't get into how I hate when people put crap like raisins/oysters/etc into the stuffing (my sister-in-law Pam adding sausage to the stuffing mix is the only addition I approve of...so far). So tomorrow when you're stuffing your face with one of America's all-time food inventions, take a second to thank Mrs. Ruth Siems. If you'd like, check out Stove Top's website and try some of their recipes to add a lil' flare to your Thanksgiving Trough.

Stove Top is possibly the best thing ever invented. Wow... I didn't know a human made it though. I though God sent Angels down to create it... hhmmm.. learn something new every day.

My mother makes the best stuffing and she wouldn't be caught dead using Stove Top (she tried to pawn it off on us a couple times and we gave it a unanimous "thumbs down"). She also uses sausage in her stuffing. Stuffing without sausage just isn't stuffing to me. There's something lacking. Sort of like Stove Top stuffing.
