Best and Worst Foods

[NightTrain]

Best : King Crab, Lobster, Bacon-wrapped Scallops on the BBQ, Bacon, Halibut, Moose burger (1:10 bacon-to-moose grinding ratio), home-made Lasagna 6" thick, Razor Clams, Filet Mignon, Eggs Benedict. Oh, and Hash Browns.

Worst : Spam, Bologna, any kind of processed turkey product, tofu, oatmeal. I am violently opposed to oatmeal of any kind and I believe it should be banned from the planet. That smiling Quaker is the devil.


Yeah, Abbey.. I totally understand what you're saying about "Oh, but you haven't tried MY recipe!" I'm 44 years old and I know that I don't like to eat freshwater fish, no matter how it's prepared. Invariably when I tell someone that, they'll go into a 10 minute description of how I'm going to LOVE their fish. It's still fish, and I don't like it. I love Halibut because it doesn't taste like your normal fish.

Ack! No moose burgers! We try to spot a (living) moose every year in Maine. Just to appreciate their incomparable moos-iness. They are not the easiest animals to find. We even went on a moose-watching hike in the woods around Mt. Katahdin. (Saw a mama and baby in the pond feeding on pond vegetation).

To each their own, Abbey. Still, long-established British wisdom on the subject has it that ANYTHING goes with chips ... especially if you eat it all from newspaper-wrappings ...

I will happily devour the chips. And the fish that often goes with it!

Pizza Pizza!

About 25 years ago I was attending a party and Little Caeser's was on the menu... we all got horribly sick from food poisoning. I've not eaten from there since then.

See, if someone asked me if I wanted "chips", I would say no. But those are yummy looking FRIES!! Next best thing to pizza is french fries... errr.....chips!!

I just used that for my "pizza" comment, I wouldn't eat their crap either (ok, I would). We have awesome pizza in NY, so never a shortage of the good stuff. But if they're closed, or late at night - hell, I'll eat Domino's or even the frozen microwaveable crap. My obsession started back in my early stoner years. Kinda hard to find much else willing to deliver a pizza at 2am.

New York has the best pizza, IMO.

Desperate times call for desperate measures! I'd have to be awfully damned desperate to try them again, though.

Absolutely!

Oh yeah. And there are so many places, depending on how you like it. I don't care for all the different weird ways, just give me a regular 'ol cheese pizza.

Oh man, you should have seen the time that Mom woke up and caught me making chocolate pudding in the middle of the night, and I think that's while I was waiting on a pizza!

I would guess that there aren't enough of them around Maine to hunt, but the damn things are everywhere up here. The average moose body count every year is 280 just in my immediate area from vehicles alone.

Did I ever show you the picture of a friend feeding a moose from my living room window?

I think so, but I don't mind seeing it anytime
