Escamoles One in a Krillion

9 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 60 accepted answers on the sheet

Walk past the supermarket default. We would type Escamoles: One in a Krillion, +100, 9 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Burrito, Enchilada, Guacamole, or Nachos — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.
