Garlic JELLY.

I am completely hooked. I've used it on toast, on pasta, and
IN OATMEAL. Tomorrow I'll try it with peanut butter, but maybe I
should wait a few days.

"Hi Scott."
"Hi, Scott. How was work?"
"Good. What are you cooking?"
"Cooking?"
"Something smells like garlic."
"Oh, that's just MY ARMPITS."

Where did you find this?

And I wonder if I can cancel out the garlic with some ginger beer?
Another wonderfully addictive but non-mainstream and hard-to-find
product. I will expound upon its virtues later.

In other news, I finally tried putting the soybean butter and jalapeno
jelly into a sandwich. It was awful.

Maybe I'll try soybean butter and grape jelly, or peanut butter and
jalapeno jelly, and one of those will not be awful and I will not have
wasted my money on either product.

The former, more likely. Jalapeno jelly goes with cheese.

No need. I could go and get a bottle down at the corner shop.

Uh, no. In Phoenix, ginger beer is a little hard to find. Rumor has
it that Trader Joe's carries it, but intermittently. I'll have to
go check it out sometime.

I brought it to a party, I brought it to work, and I had to explain to
many people that it was non-alcoholic.

If there wasn't a restriction on sending pressurised things on airplanes
I would send you so much ginger beer your HEAD WOULD EKSPLODED!

Come ON! You have the Pop! The Soda Shop headquarters RIGHT THERE!

I recommend the Blenheim Ginger Ale, which even though it is Ginger Ale
and not Ginger Beer it has more flavor than most ginger beers I have
tried.

Maybe they don't have vast fields of SUGAR over there which they
can brew up into yummy ginger beer.

Now all you have to do is to add a nip of RUM to each bottle to
enjoy a refreshingly alcoholic non-alcoholic drink!

Actually, each bottle tells you how to make a Moscow Mule.

8 ounces Vodka, 2 ounces Lime Juice, 8 ounces Ginger Beer.

Well, that's from the website, not a bottle.

You misspelled "vodka". Twice.

Try jalapeno jelly and cream cheese. On anything. I think I've mentioned
this before.
