Flander has almost forced me to stop reading this thread. I practically gagged just reading that, dude. You win. Cheeze-Ritz-Bitz are nothing compared to your hideous concoction. Yech.
I recently noticed that practically everything I cook has cheese in it. I guess it’s not a problem, since we don’t eat a whole lot of meat, and cheese is a good protein source, but it’s still odd.
When I was really sick as a kid, my mom had me sip pickle juice. Seems she learned this from my Gramma - when you can’t keep anything else down, try a sip of pickle juice. I think it’s the sodium that helps quiet my stomach but I dunno.
My food confession? Egg noodles, garlic salt, pepper, and the “shaky” cheese (parmesan in the green can). Mmmmmm Comfort Food.
Broccoli, artichokes, and asparagus are all perfectly understandable, but…
MAYO??? On cauliflower? :eek: Tsk. We won’t even discuss the brussels sprouts. And asparagus, IMO, is not fit for human consumption.
Those things are awesome! I also love spray cheese, and I’ll eat Redd-Whip whipped cream straight out of the can. I seem to have a thing for aerosol foods. It’s sick, I tell you. Sick.
It’s not pickle water, it’s pickle juice, and must be consumed straight from the jar, preferably when no one is home, or the middle of the night, even when you are a self-supporting adult. Otherwise, it just isn’t the same.
You people are just not right.
So, I’m telling my SO about this thread, and happen to mention the spray cheese. His response?
" You could even hollow it out and do like a cordon bleu thing. You know. loaf of spam, underwood chicken spread, spray cheese. Good eats."
There are not enough :eek: :eek: :eek: smilies in the world for my reaction. I literally gagged. Oh, and he thinks his monitor is the perfect hotplate for soup right out of the can. :smack:
DAMN STRAIGHT! I mean…that juice is basically a liquid pickle, why let it go to waste?
My food confessions (well, in addition to drinking pickle juice)? Well, if I do say so myself, I’m an amazing cook, and and easily capable of making myself a delicious mean each night along the lines of herb roasted chicken, ribeye steak w/ garlic mashed potatos, etc. However, I more often than not resort to canned or frozen food chock full of sodium and preservative goodness. Along side my several spices and multiple bottles of olive oil (you can’t have just one kind, it don’t work!) I have spagetti-o’s and boxed mac 'n cheese. Next to my frozen chicken carcass for making some chicken stock I have cheap, frozen pizzas.
I also love Miracle Whip. Mayonaisse I can stand only in small doses, but Miracle Whip is divine. I eat sandwiches that are nothing more than whire bread and Miracle Whip.
I also, sometimes, will have A1 by itself. No steak…just the bottle and my mouth.
I love real cheese, all kinds. I adore parmigiano, cotswold, gruyere, almost anything really except the toxic blues. But if I’m going to have a grilled cheese sandwich it must be Velveeta and no other cheese substance. My younger brother, the chef, thinks I’m a heretic.
The mac & cheese I grew up with was cooked elbow macaroni (Muellers) with loads of Cheez Whiz melted on it and slices of hot dogs. Mmmmmmmm. As a child, I remember being jealous of the kids across the street because they got Kraft Mac & Cheese, but as an adult, I know better.
My favorite potatoes are the kind I make in the crockpot with cream of mushroom soup, onions, and loads of cheddar cheese. Everyone who’s tasted these loves them, but they’re definitely guilt-inducing.
I love brussel sprouts.
I don’t like mayonnaise, but I love Miracle Whip. (I actually don’t mind mayonnaise that much if it’s from my own refrigerator. Just the thought of mayo from other people’s houses or restaurants, though, makes me a bit queasy.)
One of my favorite meals is pasta with butter, garlic powder, and soy sauce. I practically lived on that for a few years right out of college.
I have never tasted bleu cheese, sauerkraut or beets. I only recently tasted sour cream for the first time (like it!).
Iced sweeten (Splenda rocks) 20oz coffee with 1 tablespoon half & half and 3 tablespoons skim milk.
Ripe fresh tomatoes.
Steamed artichokes with vingerette.
Marinated artichokes.
Hard salami on whole wheat with KRAFT REAL Mayo.
Tuna salad made with the aforementioned mayo, boiled eggs, dill relish, green salad olives, celery, chopped onion, on whole wheat with romaine lettuce.
