You had one keg of beer that lasted a whole week???
[/QUOTE]
Well, in our defense, there was also quite a lot of leftover alcohol in bottles and cans for us to consume with our other meals. Keg beer was reserved for breakfast only, for some odd reason.
Sounds like I might have to turn in my chick card…I like hunks of dead animal, on the bone, in a can, pretty much however you can serve 'em. Cold pizza? Yup. Personally I prefer mustard (nice coarse, horseradishy mustard) on my liverwurst sandwiches (with sliced onion on rye bread).
There are things that I see and think “A guy invented that” - the assorted things that aren’t hot dogs but roll around on the hot dog roller at 7-11, for example. Doesn’t mean I don’t eat them.
One food difference between the men and women I’ve known is that the women are less inclined to turn food into a contest. I’ve never been at a party and had a woman come out of the kitchen with a jar of hot peppers betting the rest of us that she can eat more of them without taking a drink than the rest of us. Can’t say that for my male friends. I’ve never had a female friend tell me, and then show me that she can stuff an entire Big Mac in her mouth at once. Again, not true of my guy friends.

There, changed that for you.

Uh, not sure why. You can make Eggs Benedict with soy-based Canadian bacon, or by substituting other things (such as portabella mushrooms) or by leaving it out entirely. It’s one of my favorite breakfasts.

But then what you have is Not Exactly™ Eggs Benedict. And not guy food. (and all men know, Eggs Benedict is served with a side of Hollandaise…and a straw.

Oh, and I got the Col’s secret recipe:
Chicken
Salt
Grease!

But more importantly, does anybody realize that our favorite biscuits and gravy is pretty much just:
Pepper, Bacon, Bacon Fat, Flour, Flour, and Shortening?

You say that like it is a bad thing.

Hollandaise sauce is not guy food. Eggs Benedict is too fancy. I love Eggs Benedict with every beat of my ever encrusted heart, but it’s not guy food unless you can cook it in an iron skillet over a campfire.
Man type breakfast:
Steak
Homefries, with onions
Fried eggs.
Toast, with butter, and jam.
Hot coffee
OJ.
Man lunch:
Burger and fries, with a milkshake. The bigger the burger, the more manly.
Man dinner:
Had steak for breakfast, so maybe not for dinner, today.
Roast chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, peas.
Apple pie for desert. With ice cream.

Funny you should say that – I’m a 45-year old man, and I had an angioplasty/stent a month ago.

I’m glad you got it taken care of and are on the mend. Good prognosis, I hope?

I dunno, you know what’s in it? butter, Butter, BUTTER, egg yolks, and some lemon juice. If guy food = unhealthy, it’s pretty high up on the scale.
( Hollandaise sauce - Wikipedia )
Best Steak I can remember was a ribeye, smothered in Hollandaise, with crab lumps.
Fancy? sure.
Manly? Fuckyea.

Sure, but it’s French, so that takes it down a few notches on said scale.

I have a recipe that’s really good, easier to make, and is basically butter, butter, butter, heavy whipping cream, butter, egg yolks, and lemon juice. MMmmmmmm. Faaaaaat.

That’s exactly how we make them in my household – we call them “heartburn delights.”
Oh, and I love peanut butter and sliced sweet pickle sandwiches, too.
And pulled pork sandwiches dripping with barbecue sauce are heavenly.
(Yup, I’m a girl.)

Oh, it’s guy food if you walk into a diner, order it and eat it. Guy food = didn’t make it yourself.
Unless you’re a chef. Everyone knows guys make the best chefs.
(There is also a powdered Hollandaise sauce mix you can buy. It’s not as bad as you’d think, even.)

Cold pizza for breakfast. Yum.

My favorite sister and my wife both do this; now that I think about it, so did my mother. I am utterly flabbergasted each time I witness it, for nothing, in my view, could be more pointlessly gross. I mean, the microwave is RIGHT THERE.
