  1. Who says advertising does not work? If you recognize this as a riff off the slogan The sweet you can eat between meals without ruining your appetite", then Mars (UK Ltd) did not waste their UK/Commonwealth advertising budget for Milky Way during the 1950s-80s. For nostalgia or cringe, depending on your generational identity, see this advert (on YouTube) from 1988. Other aggressively marketed snack products are available. ↩︎

  2. The words are like snacks you didn’t plan to eat, but you saw them and couldn’t resist. Fieldnotes are like snacks, engineered with precision and marketed relentlessly, how could you refuse? The essays are meals served to you in a restaurant that, at first sight, looks like it has seen better days; do not be fooled, the chef knows exactly what he’s doing. ↩︎
