It Takes Two

It takes two... to tango, to have brazen make out session as well as it taking two to complete every food.

You see, for we suggest that we have the “one” waiting out there for us, all we have to do is to find them, but apparently this requires kissing a few ugly frogs in the process.

Luckily, joining the dots between food doppelgangers in the supermarket is not as hard.

For all the cheaper brands, they have a gourmet counterpart; one that can provide the answer to our queries of what a food would have been like iff it were 5, 6 dollars dearer.

In the case of Ice Cream, you have vanilla but then you have vanilla in varieties such as French and Vanilla Bean.

The emergence of gourmet ice cream capitalises on luxury in a lucrative area where dessert has, and I think will always be, indulgent.

The rich b***hes of food cater to those with tastebuds unwilling to go down a level or sometimes, the quality in more expensive food is simply there.

Other gourmet (read: expensive) counterparts include vegetables, meat, cereal and yes, chocolate dip.

This is not to say that quality always wins out, the same goes for the supposed notion of true love. As it so happens, some generic brands of cereal are mighty fine, even more so than the original brand of 8 bucks a box.

While I comment that it takes two to argue, to tango, in terms of food and the relative doppelganger; it takes two to compete providing much fun for the consumer to eat and test the expensive versus generic brands.
