Ginger Snaps
If you leave out a donut, a regular cookie, or a pice of bread for a while, it's gonna dry out and become stale.
On the contrary, if you leave out a hard ginger snap, it will absorb the moisture from the air around it and become slightly soft.
The opposite effect.
I suppose the same thing would happen with biscotti.
The ginger snap is the original rebel cookie.

What did the Pumpkin Spice Latte Taste Like?
Who killed JFK?
What happened to the Roanoke Colony??
Atlantis???
Well, folks, get ready for the pumpkin spice latte debate. It is likely that Starbucks will become defunct in the next 100 years and the original recipe will be lost and never made the way it once was.
The biggest determining factor is if the PSL can become ten times more iconic than it is now. Will it be as integral to 21st century America as Baseball and Apple pie was to the 20th?
Being that it is already held in ironic appreciation and somewhat disdain by the American youth of today, it will be seen if the 21st century America has enough cultural integrity to elevate such drink to the level of Coke-a-cola.
Also, PSL is only seasonal and Starbucks probably will keep it that way unless they get hit with "Autumn in April" syndrome and/or declining sales.
The philosophers of 2300 may have schools of thought that revolve around the various future theories as to the flavor. The contemporary cultish following of the PSL my evolve into a full blown post-apocalyptic religious movement.
Stripped of all comforts via nuclear proliferation, the people of earth hearken back to the day when one could acquire a five dollar latte in October and forget all about the bills and latest thing trending on Twitter.
Luckily, most of us won't be around for the debate. Or maybe we'll be able to upload our brains and surf the servers well into the next millennium.
