Today my Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits exploded

[rachelmanija]

While I was sitting peacefully in my kitchen, I heard a loud bang, immediately followed by a clatter. I turned around and saw a sight which I am now sorry I did not photograph. It consisted of the trash bag into which I had chucked a large unopened can of Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits upon cleaning out my refrigerator and discovering that they had expired months ago, the open and empty can standing upright all the way across the kitchen from the trash bag, and three uncooked buttermilk biscuits scattered across the kitchen, like pale cow pattys.

This is not the first time I've had something explode in my kitchen, but it was possibly the most spectacular.

My actual response, each beat of which lasted approximately one-third of a second:

- What was that???

- Didn't sound like a gunshot.

- It did sound like it was coming from inside the kitchen.

- Nothing in my kitchen should bang like that.

- Cat must have knocked something big down.

[Turn around]

- How did the biscuits fall off the TOP of the refrigerator…?
