The Shining, Cont.

Here's a rundown of the food in the kitchen scene in the beginning:
"You don't have to worry about food because you folks could eat up here a whole year and never have the same menu twice. Now this is where we keep all of out meat.  You got fifteen rib roasts - thirty ten pound bags of hamburgers.  You got twelve-turkeys, two dozen pork roasts and twenty legs of lamb. In here, Mrs. Torrance, is where we keep all the dried goods and the canned goods.  We got canned fruits and vegetables; canned fish and meats; hot and cold cereals. Post Toasties, Cornflakes, Sugar Puffs, Rice Krispies, Oatmeal, Wheatina and Cream of Wheat. We got a dozen jugs of black molasses, we got sixty boxes of dried milk, thirty twelve pound bags of sugar. Now we got dried peaches, dried apricots, dried raisins and dried prunes."
How awesome would it have been if three days later, just for a goof they called and said "Hey, we're outta food, can you send some more?"

Ha!

"Triflin' motherfuckers."
