Do All Old People Like Butterscotch?

I guess I do. Great beginning to a new year!

My wife and her sister enjoy teasing me about my love of "old man candies" like butterscotch, peanut brittle, and Werther's Originals. Enjoy!

I love those old man candies too. But being diabetic kind of limits my enjoyment of them.

Wow, I was about to reply and say "that's just regular scotch!". Then I saw the butter and my brain slowly put the pieces of the puzzle together... haha. Excellent choices, by the way. I love me some "Leapfrog", as my dad and I call it.

I am young-ish and think butterscotch is awesome. I'll eat the butterscotch baking chips right out of the bag. A blondie with butterscotch is one of my favorite desserts.

Love those, horehound, and black licorice.

I’m not as young as I once was and that Lagavulin 16 is about as good as it gets.
Chin Chin!

Werther's Originals! When I worked in Russia I always had a pocket full of them for the kids.

I used to infuse my own liquor and liqueurs.

Butterscotch whiskey was surprisingly amazing. Great neat, on the rocks, or with cream soda.

I've liked Butterscotch all my life, and Scotch for most of it.

Ditto.

I like 'em both. Butter and Scotch. Islay single malts to be specific.

Test drive some Wee Beastie the next time you pick up a bottle.

It's deliberately young (5 years) and has a "touch of edge" that makes the flavor more intense than the oldies.

I just help myself to "correction" dose of insulin. But it does get tiresome shooting myself up so often.

Will have to check it out. Been into Irish whiskeys lately.

They have been favorites of mine as long as I can remember. When I was a kid, my mom would like me make butterscotch and peanut brittle. Or cashew brittle, or hazelnut brittle. Callard & Bowser was a favorite, too. Just the perfect balance of sugar and salt, and a perfect hard crack, like glass. Butter just over the line of browning without going too dark. And those perfectly folded foil paper wrappers...the entire package.

So, you like drinking that liquid smoke... ha ha. I like it from time to time, but it will take me a decade to finish my one bottle.

I enjoy hard candies like an old grandma. I also enjoy a good scotch like Glenmorangie.
