I think you were filling her with the wrong kind of cream.

Many years ago, I met someone with a taste for the kinky. She had an idea one night to lick a little whipped cream off of me. She also thought that cherries were really sexy, so she wanted to eat those off of me as well. Well, she went a BIT overboard with it. She essentially made cherries jubilee on my chest. This was not a light snack. This was a full meal. It took her a good 30 minutes to eat it. I felt like little more than a plate. A really, really bored plate. When she was done, we ended up showering together, but we never did quite get rid of the smell. We both smelled like sour milk for the rest of the night.

It was probably the unsexiest night of my life.

Please tell me she [flambéed](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherries_jubilee) it.

If she did, at least she would have set my passions on fire. Or my chest hair.

You either have room temperature body temperature, or you weren’t using reddi-wip, because reddi-wip turns to sour curdy nasty when exposed to hot flesh. The only thing nastier than eating sour curdy nasty is eating it off of a vagina. (No offense intended)

Neither do cabbage and cola. And that one has aftereffects as well.

One time in Kyoto I saw a bar called “Cabbages and Condoms.” I imagine those flavors don’t go well together either.

Or the third option – I have a normal body temperature, which equalled room temperature (it was summer), and it was reddi-whip. Sour curdy nasty describes the result quite well.

Hot dog with mustard and relish = quite yummy.

Strawberries with mustard and relish, not so much.

Never drink milk immediately after eating a grapefruit. The milk will curdle in your mouth. And if Mom is there, she’ll make you finish the milk anyway. That’s a memory that’s lasted over 40 years.

While half asleep at 3AM, I once tried to pour Nestle Quick powder (from a baggy we had brought with us) into a sippy cup of milk for my son. Sadly, the baggy I grabbed was filled with Lipton’s Iced Tea mix…

And thus, ‘Milk-Tea’ was born. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:  
My son is 11 and he still tries to punch me when I ask how he liked ‘milk-tea’. 😃

On _Top Chef_ last week, someone (Dale) made scallops with a butterscotch sauce. Guest Judge Anthony Boudain said:

Cabbages and Condoms has branches around Thailand, but I don’t know if they’ve expanded internationally. Their main location is in the compound of the Population and Community Development Association, off of Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok. We’re not fans of the place; we both find the food so-so, but the concept is neat.

Ice cream and beer.

I call bullshit on this one. I have three reasons:

1. Ice cream is good.
2. Beer is good.
3. Guiness has an official ice cream recipe.

That recipe is my thesis! It’s my closing argument! I can stop writing about beer and ice cream now!
