Patti Labelle has made my life a nightmare!

doubledragondoubledragon Posts: 23,269 ✭✭✭✭✭

This Patti Labelle sweet potato pie they sell in Wal-Mart has become an absolute nightmare in my life. A few months ago, my wife tells me to get a sweet potato pie the next time I go to Wal-Mart, so I just grabbed a sweet potato pie, I didn't know it was the famous Patti Labelle sweet potato pie that went viral years ago and became ridiculously popular and one sells every two seconds in America. My wife took one bite and has become obsessed with it. I have to get one every time I go to Wal-Mart, but the problem is, they're sold out a lot. So, I get scolded if I don't bring one home, but it's not my fault they're so popular and one sells every two seconds in America and they're sold out. I caught a beatdown this morning over this pie, this pie is a nightmare!

    Start trying to make things yourself.

    After Thanksgiving, we bought a lot of sweet potatoes at a ridiculously low price. Still eating them in different forms.

    It has to be Patti Labelle, I tried substituting it with a Wal-Mart brand sweet potato pie, I got a verbal thumb to the eye for my efforts!

    This pie ain't no joke, for some reason people go nuts over it and they sell out fast. At my local Wal-Mart, if you're going to look for this pie, you better be packin!

    Don't feel bad Dragon Master. I went into a Wal-Mart recently. It was in Hurricane, Utah. First time I ever went inside a Wal-Mart. I was shopping for 12 gauge 00 buck. They have a lot of stuff in that place. AMAZING! But they didn't have any 12 gauge 00 buck. I'm never going back inside a Wal-Mart. They have lots of stuff in that place......but not the important stuff!... NEVER!

    Do not buy Mrs. Hydrant one of these pies, she'll get hooked and you'll have to bring one home every time you go to Wal-Mart, and if they are sold out you'll have to deal with a very angry and disappointed Mrs. Hydrant, I repeat, stay away from these evil pies!

    And that's not all, Patti Labelle also makes this delicious banana pudding that my wife is hooked on, and it sells out fast!

    And Patti Labelle also makes this dang southern peach cobbler with soft flaky crust and sweet peaches, and it's also addictive!

    I blame my wife for this Patti Labelle mess, I had a nice Reese's peanut butter chocolate life, and my wife just had to bring Patti Labelle into this, everything is all screwed up now!

  • doubledragondoubledragon Posts: 23,269 ✭✭✭✭✭

    This is what started the whole mess that I'm in right now. If I don't come up with one of these dang pies, and soon, you don't want to know what's going to happen!

    I might just have to go that route, if I want to avoid a beatdown!

    DD...

    I'm all stocked up for the Monday night game. I figure by the 3rd qtr I'll be on such a sugar high that the game may be a little blurry. The wife developed a secret, special formula to create this uber-jumbo chocolate chip cookie, the M&Ms really bring all the flavors together on the palate. A little over a foot in diameter, weighing over 1.5 lbs. I should have this polished off by kickoff.

    YOU, OTOH will be chomping on a wimpy, store bought THREE OUNCE Patti snack. Be sure to check the expiration date!! So sad for you, the secret Reese's club is considering an intervention to bring you back into the fold, but I think it may be too late.

    Hi DD!! Greetings from Athens, Georgia.
    GO DAWGS!!

    Friend of mine was a Cheer/Gym Dawg til she broke her back on a high toss during practice. Those girls are tough.

    Brought a bag of these home yesterday...

    Man, you are lucky, I wish my wife would make me one of those. No, I'll have to settle for a couple of packs of Reese's sticks for now, unless......I did see something at Wal-Mart recently that caught my attention, but do I dare?


  • MCMLVToppsMCMLVTopps Posts: 4,839 ✭✭✭✭✭

    DD, there may be hope for you yet! I'll be looking for one of those ice cream cakes!

    When you just need to get away and ponder the world...bring a spoon. No napkins required. Consuming both in one sitting, not recommended. Pls see cardiologist prior to pulling second lid!

    Wow not good. I hope she was able to recover, that had to hurt!!

    You're good to go with those Reeses!.

    She recovered fine, was a clean break and recovery. Just ended the jumpy jumpy flippy flippy activities.

    The dark reeses are the bomb!

    I picked four of these up this morning, they're the miniatures, it's all they had, but at least I don't have to take a beating and sleep on the couch tonight!

    Yes, and they have already been eaten and I've been instructed to buy four more tomorrow. What am I going to do if they're sold out? The nightmare is reccuring all over again!

    Sadly, it appears you have fallen very far from reality. Why not go the Full Monty and go for the Vascular Impact Special. Do you really want to stay with your little, tiny PLB snacks? So boring!! Or tempt fate and put your gobbler on one of these beauties??

    Those look to be in good condition as well, I wonder if I can convince PSA to start slabbing Pattie Pies? 🤔
