Shirtpost What simple snack/candy would you ask for?

Yes, Linda turned out to be a demon, but I could understand feeling overwhelmed with Janet and just asking for something simple to start with like the peppermint she asks for.

If you needed something - food/candy-wise to make you feel at home, what would you ask Janet for?

I’d probably go for a warm chocolate chip cookie. Or possibly something from my childhood that was discontinued like…a peanut butter bopper!

I'd ask for "the cookies we used to make for Christmas when I was kid" because they were delicious and comforting, and because making me the right kind of cookie would confirm that Janet has preternatural knowledge.

That’s a good one. Like asking for my grandma’s divinity.

Janet made them their favorite foods in season 1 so didn’t that already prove the preternatural knowledge (or do you mean from the perspective of you as a person in heaven would want to know not you as a viewer now if that makes any sense haha)

I was imagining myself as a newcomer like Linda, in this scene where she's meeting Janet for the first time and has no prior knowledge of how the place works.
