I’m usually a big Papa Murphy’s Take ‘N Bake fan. But, I have to say I’m not a huge fan of their Philly Cheesesteak Pizza.

I’ve heard of scripture candy before, and pretty much wrote it off. After all, isn’t regular candy just as good as “scripture candy”? But recently a family member bought a tiny tin of Fish Mints and let me try one. One tiny fish mint and I …
