Pancakes for Pinkos

You don't have to be a Commie or an Anarchist or even a Democrat to enjoy these pancakes, but it helps:


3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/8 cup oats
2 tablespoons oat bran
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped apple
1 cup apple juice


Combine dry ingredients. Add raisins and apple. Gently stir in juice until dry ingredients are completely moistened. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a nonstick skillet or griddle. Cook until bottom is brown and spatula slips easily underneath. Turn and brown other side. Makes eight plump pancakes.


Whether you are or not, once you see how all these ingredients--free to express their true selves within the community of the pancake--come together to form a truly utopian breakfast experience, you'll find yourself thinking about the "withering away of the State." Oh, yes, you will.

Your mind may still say, "No, no, no (that'll be the false consciousness talking)," but your taste buds will be saying, "Yes, yes, yes."

Or I'll eat my copy of The German Ideology.
