I don’t want a meatball parmesan sandwich for lunch. All that melty cheese and drippy sauce and fresh bread and balls of meat just hold no appeal to me.
I don’t want beer-battered fish and chips for lunch, even through there’s an English pub nearby that serves them in newspaper. The through of grease and malt vinegar soaking through the paper down not sound really, really appealing.
I don’t want to run down the block and pick up a cupcake for desert. Not even a golden heart cupcake, which is a yellow cupcake with a red velvet center and covered in butter cream frosting.
And, luckily for me, I didn’t want an almond croissant this morning. Nor did I want a coffee laden with real sugar and real half and half.
All I want is my vegan fakey soy burger disk thing and a whole wheat roll. That’s all I want. Really. Truly.
I DON’T want my stupid ham sandwich, an orange, a handful of strawberries, and a handful of grapes (I’m eating my apple right now)… but my BP is too high, and I’m on a healthy food diet.
[sup]Damn, that meatball sandwich sounds good…[/sup]
But the morbid part of my mind that likes to collect bits of knowledge to gross out my twelve-year old (and her friends) with kinda wants to know what it is.
QtM - Isn’t that just Purina Prisoner Chow without gravy so it can be served without forks?
As for what I don’t want, I don’t want the leftover mediocre Chinese food that’s waiting for me in the fridge. It wasn’t real good when it was fresh, and I’m sure 18 hours of aging hasn’t helped. But, it’s “free” or at least, already paid for.
Note to self - don’t have a hankering for Chinese food on Sundays when the good place is closed!
Good lord, just what I was going to post. It was actually pretty good when we ate it on Saturday, but somehow it never tastes as good the second time around. It’s not for my lunch today, but for our dinner tonight. But food’s getting more expensive, and damned if I’m going to let it go to waste. So, hi-ho for some shredded pork and tofu and some Chinese broccoli in oyster sauce tonight.
Pretty much. It’s pressed into brick form, but it’s not hard enough to use as a shank. (A shank is a non-weapon item used as a weapon. Like a toothbrush. Or my homemade chili.)
I’m willing to bet that the chili isn’t knife shaped, but has other lethal qualities. Qualities that show up about 3 AM. So what you want isn’t a pic, but a recipe.
I want a massive peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a really fatty chocolate chip cookie but NOOOoooooo…I have to be friggin healthy!! Well healthy doesn’t taste good! Healthy doesn’t help me relax at lunch, it stresses me out even more!!
What’s wrong with you anti-mayo freaks? Practically any sandwich with meat has to have mayo - real mayo, preferably, none of that reduced-fat crap. Chicken? Only if it has mayo? Corned beef? Mayo. Ham? With mayo (mustard is possibly an acceptable substitute/addition here). Pastrami? Tastes good with mayo.
I don’t want anything I have to reach for. I did something to my left shoulder that has me moving like a 1950’s robot and I don’t want to deal with reaching. And for some insane reason the soups are on the top shelf at our house. It hurts to just look up there.
Mmm, I think I want a peanut butter and sweet pickle sandwich for lunch. I haven’t had one in ages!
What I NEVER want is some sort of salad, as a sandwich or not. Chicken salad, tuna salad, egg salad, potato salad, seafood salad, cold noodle salad, and especially jello salad.
And no, I don’t care how good yours is. It still sucks.
