Tiney's Treats, Part I
While UPW continues to crap her pants over NY Fashion Week, I'm going to move on and announce that I've created a new column that will appear here on FFA periodically. And when I say periodically, I mean, whenever I have a flipping second to do something other than media planning and training for a marathon and joining book clubs and talking to Mooks on Instant Messenger.
"Tiney's Treats" will spotlight a particular product, restaurant, dish, food store, or delicacy that I have deemed SO noteworthy, I must share it with our readers, those readers being Wol, Wolison, and The Schwartz, and sometimes my sister when I remind her to read it (If you're a reader and not listed, please sign in at the guest book in the comments section).
Today's feature combines two of my favorite words: free, and ice cream. I'm talking about the free ice cream at Jason's Deli. Whoever runs that joint (and let me tell you, it ain' t the Jews) is someone I would consider hiring to plan my wedding menu. For those of you unfamiliar with Jason's Deli, here's the schtick: no matter WHAT you order, you get free ice cream after your meal. Not only is it free, but it is unlimited! The little soft serve machine is right out on the floor next to the drink machine. You get to pull the lever yourself and dispense as much as you like. You want a cup or a cone? You want chocolate or vanilla? It's up to you! You want a second serving? Have another! Have six if you like!
Who needs chips and a drink included in some delusional combo meal when you have free ice cream to look forward to! Don't spread this around, but word on the street is, you can go to Jason's Deli and not order a single thing off the menu, and they will STILL give you free ice cream! You don't have to spend a cent!
It's a good thing that Jason's Deli has such a great ice cream incentive program, because I have to say, they aren't off the hook yet. I'm a bit irked by their blatant misuse of the word "deli." Because it sure isn't a deli by my standards. How about they call it Jason's Restaurant or Jason's Cafe or Jason's Goyisha Sandwiches. Calling it a deli is a clear misrepresentation. It's almost as if Jason's Deli has an online dating profile and has posted a picture of itself looking tan and thin, when really, Jason's Deli is grossly overweight and pale with a big bald spot in the back of his head. Remember, Jason's Deli, evetually you're going to meet them in person, and this little fantasy is going to come to an abrupt end.
Anyways. Happy Eating!

Tine- AND they have chocolate syrup, right? And I dn't appreciate you throwing this in the faces of your New York family. let's write about something we can all enjoy. Shiesh
Tiney, what a fabulous idea for a column, and I should have known this would be your first topic. Readers, we went to J's goyisha sandwiches for lunch with 3 other chicks and none of them got the free ice cream but Tine and I. It was disgusting, their disregard for free tasty treats.
And PS people, UPW would not still be crapping her pants about fashion week if people sent her the pictures they promised! Now take your heart pendant and stick it where the sun don't shine, Tiney!
