Exactly! And that state of tension between the two is what I'm calling crisp. They're hard enough that there's a snap when you break them, but soft enough that there's no crunch when you chew them. If you have a better word than "crisp," I'm open to suggestions.

LOL. I move that we bring back GC Court and GC Law and Order. There is so much wrong stuff in your post. This is out of control. LOL.
LOL yourself. The only thing wrong with my post is that it's the truth, and you can't handle the truth. So there.

Besides, I'm Chief Justice.
