If you were an item of food what would you be and why?

I would probably be fettucini.

At first I come across as hard and stiff but once you get to know me I am soft yet I still have some bounce if you cook me aldente.

Smother me with a good tomato sauce and my knees are weak.

Served best with an Italian wine and a crisp romaine salad with a tart dressing, the over all experience is hard to resist again and again.

So what food would you be and why?

Sashimi

Clean, cool, elegant simplicity. Often an acquired taste that will sustain and please you like nothing else.

I’m a peach of a girl.

We’re a great pear, but we cantaloupe!

I think I would be a chocolate meringue pie baked by my sainted mother.

Only those who saved room for me would even bother to try me. But for those few, I would be that rare indescribable experience. They would savor me with their favorite coffee, and remember me for the rest of their lives.

I am just guessing here, but I would say Prime Rib.

  1. Comes in large serving sizes.
  2. Is best with a bit of fat on the side.
  3. Melts in your mouth.

I’m a chocolate truffle. You’re not quite sure what’s inside, but you know it’s gonna be good…

I would have said chocolate truffle as well had she not said it first. As Athena said, not sure what’s inside, but you know it’s going to be good. Hey, Athena, we could be a box of chocolate truffles - variety pack. If not, how about chocolate truffle cake?

good question.
I would say a chocolate bar.
Good for after dinner, yet sometimes nuts.

I’m a grapefruit… one false squeeze and you get it right in the eye… :stuck_out_tongue:

Well, you rarely see one truffle by itself. Usually they’re sold in groups, so I guess that several of us can be truffles!

I am jaggery, a dark, coarse, unrefined sugar made from sugar-cane juice.

I have two primary forms: a soft, honeybutter texture, and a solid, cakelike shape.

I have a winey fragrance.

And some people refer to me as a “sap.”

I think I must be a Waldorf, because I’m ambivalent;
I don’t know whether I want to be a salad or a dessert.

I am traditional, yet still somehow strange.

I can be nutty, I can be sweet, and I am full of complex and contradictory textures and flavors.

If you don’t know me you would never suspect what I contain, but get to know me and you will come to think of me as a perennial favorite that you crave on special occasions.

I would be cheescake. Smooth, sweet, creamy, and pouring chocolate sauce or cherries over me only makes the experience better. :smiley:

I would be a can of Tuna fish.

I’d be carrots or celery–really healthy and bland, but they’re kind of a party food.

I’d be an Oscar Meyer Weiner.

You know why.

Deep-dish pizza, with thick-cut spicy pepperoni, red onions, and plenty of garlic. A familiar form, yet greatly improved due to a little care and effort.

Dr. J

Green Apple Jolly Rancher. I’m sweet AND sour, and fun to suck on. HA! :wink:

Spam I am.
Your guilty pleasure.

I would be a cucumber. A very sensual looking phallic shaped cucumber. Hopefully, a nice young lady will come along and buy me. It will be love at first site.

Wait a minute; I’ve changed my mind! What if some guy came along? And then wanted to use me for some nefarious recreational purpose? I have definitely changed my mind.
I want to be a Pineapple.
