The gooey truth about the Fluffernutter bill

adamg — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 15:24:04 -0400

Aaron Cohen wrote every single state rep and senator to ask them how they'd vote on Rep. Kathi-Anne Reinstein's perpetual motion to annoint the Fluffernutter the Official Sandwich of the Commonwealth. He posts the replies he got, including one from a grumpy Sen. Richard Moore, D-Harrumph:

[W]hat do you think it is about the Fluffernutter that deserves the mantle of Official State Sandwich? If not, why?
I think we've got more pressing issues to consider.

How often do you enjoy Fluff, either on a sandwich or in a dessert?
Very rare.

Ever think bills in the legislature are full of fluff?

An Act designating the Fluffernutter as the official sandwich of the Commonwealth.

Sponsored by Rep. Kathi-Anne Reinstein of Revere, who has been trying to get this vital legislation enacted since 2006, when she got all up in then Sen. Jarrett Barrios's grill after he tried to ban Fluff from school menus.

Aaron Schutzengel posts photos from the What the Fluff festival, including vital shots of kids getting dunked in a kiddie pool of Fluff during a tug of war.

Karrie posts Fluff photos as well, including one of Fluff Boy.

Jeremy Selwyn, chief snacks officer at Taquitos.net, posts still more Fluff photos, including a candid shot of the dancing Flufferettes. He also makes and devours a tuna, Fluff and hot sauce mix on a cracker.

Wait, this just in! More Fluff and Flufferette photos. And here's a photo of Coney Island Men's Rooms - drinks made with Fluff.

What? You just can't get enough of this stuff? Here are even more Fluff photos, by the immortal Hargo (he of the Somerville Gates).

Java programming geeks, meanwhile, were busy at the No Fluff Just Stuff conference in Framingham.

Hmm, did anybody see Jarrett Barrios?
