I bet I’m the only person on this board who likes soy milk better than cow milk. In fact, I loathe most dairy products, especially cheese. And Alfredo sauce is like some horrible nightmare to me. I bet I’m also one of the only folks on this board who likes burnt popcorn. With nutritional yeast, which is a lovely thing to use instead of butter, and I bet most people would like if they gave it a try–but the burnt part, I doubt other people would like that as much as I do. I bet I am not the only person on this board who noticed how awkwardly constructed the above sentence is. ---

I bet I’m the only person on this board who likes the Spice Girls enough to own their entire discography including every CD single. Can’t foresee too many jumping to prove me wrong on this one, although maybe there is one of you out there, possibly pretending to be all cool with your Tom Waits albums and your issue of Rolling Stone magazine and your tendency to immediately shout “THE BEATLES” in every vs. thread, all the while secretly cherishing your ‘2 Become 1’ single and deluxe 4 disc edition of _Spice Girls: Greatest Hits_. Come out of the closet with me, it’s not so bad! I only get fruit thrown at my house maybe once, twice a week these days! Somebody wrote “WE KNOW YOUR SPICY SECRET” in blood on my front fence the other day, but there’s no proof that is in any way connected to my precious collection. ---

Somebody wrote “WE KNOW YOUR SPICY SECRET” in blood on my front fence the other day, but there’s no proof that is in any way connected to my precious collection. My first purchase when I finally got a record player was the soundtrack to ‘Xanadu’. It was my favorite album when I was a little girl and record players were still the music player of choice. I unabashedly love every song on that album. ---

Nope. I like slugs and gastropods generally. I truly do loathe stepping on them in bare feet, though. I you like _that_, you may indeed be alone ( though no doubt some kink fetish group for such practices exists somewhere on the internet ). I also like the Butthole Surfers ( in limited doses - _Daddy, what does regret mean?_ ) ---

It was my favorite album when I was a little girl and record players were still the music player of choice. I unabashedly love every song on that album. Dang! I was going to mention that I liked the “Xanadu” soundtrack. I guess we both get buzzed now. I particularly liked the track “Dancin’”, that went back and forth between disco and swing styles, eventually merging them together at the end. ---

> [@needscoffee](#): > > What are _all-dressed_ potato chips? They’re [the best](http://www.taquitos.net/snacks.php?snack_code=954) potato chips. They’re apparently not too widely available. The flavor is a little bit like a mixture of several other flavors; mostly salt & vinegar and barbecue, but a bit more ketchuppy with hints of sour cream & onion. There’s also garlic in there. As good as they are on their own, if you use plain yoghurt --not low-fat, definitely not vanilla-- as dip for them, the flavors combine in a wonderful gastronomic alchemy to produce an entirely new flavor. When I get down to the tiny fragments of chips unsuited for dipping, I crush them up into tinier crumbs and dump them into the remaining yoghurt. Stir with a spoon and eat before they lose all of their crunch. I bet I’m the only person on this board who likes this combo, but only because I bet I’m the only person on this board who has tried this combo. ---

My favorite as well! I have cornered many a poor soul at my house to give them an inebriated lecture on and demonstration of the brilliance of this song. Funny, no one ever visits anymore.
