What Are You Eating/Drinking?, The Tastiest Thread Around Options

[Grits]

Day three snowed in and we are raiding the freezer. Buffalo chicken bites, broccoli spears, and potstickers. Tea. Reese's ice cream thingies for dessert. Yay freezer!

[Dark Reaper]

I'm eating Ramen Noodles and spiked tea .

Spiked Tea?

I'm craving a frozen pizza again

I'm craving a frozen pizza again

The concept of eating a pizza more than once is putting me off the idea.

More than once in your life?


I didn't mean an old pizza, I meant a new one

Pumpkin bread made with instant pudding (recipe calls for coconut- but good luck finding that around here) and extra cinnamon- because one teaspoon would just annoy everyone. I mean why don't they just say "let the shadow of the spice bottle pass over the batter"? You'd think it was still coming over on sailing ships from Hammerfell....

TREYDOGGIE !!!!!!!

Khajiit loves him some deer meat!

Yum!

My daughter made sloppy joe grilled cheese sandwiches tonight. I was skeptical, but they were unbelievably good. She made the sauce from scratch. I didn't even know you could do that!

You guys would have loved it, probably the best dinner I've made .

The Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans where awesome. If there's one thing I can pride myself on is my ability to cook really well.

I believe that, based on everything you have posted here! I've wanted to taste several things you have talked about cooking!

I often whine that the foods I eat don't taste as good as they did in the "Good Old Days". Fresh produce tends to be rather bland and tasteless. Processed foods (canned soups, etc.) taste overly artificial yet somehow remain bland. (Admittedly, I tend to prefer dishes on the spicy side.) Yada yada yada. I have tended to chalk it up to age and decrepitude. My taste-buds ain't getting any younger. Turns out my whines are valid, as this article attests. Another such article mentions ways to acquire tastier foods, but they tend to be too expensive for my meager food budget, or too much effort for a low energy good-for-nothing bum such as myself.

If I recall correctly, you and your brother always go to a Chinese restaurant at Christmas. Would you say the food is a bit on the oily side? My grandma seems to think so.

Both of the two Oriental Buffet restaurants I'm apt to visit do tend to toward "oily" entrees, which to me tends to give a great many entrees a certain sameness of flavor. Additionally, one of the two uses what I consider an overly sweet oil. The other restaurant thankfully has at least two "dry" entrees on the bar, and a less sweet taste overall. Sadly, it also offers less variety and occasionally lesser quality meets in its dishes. Still, I tend to prefer it, helped by lower prices.

What an interesting article! And I've also noticed the tasteless tomatoes and veggies in restaurants and stores; but here in ETN there are a lot of areas set up for local farmer's produce = Grainger County tomatoes, fresh sweet corn that beats anything you can buy in any of the stores or find in any of the restaurants here - green beans and cucumbers that make your mouth water they taste so good, same with the local pumpkins.

I don't understand why local businesses don't support the local growers when what they produce is so much better than what they are offering!

I haven't noticed oily in the Chinese restaurants I use most; maybe a bit too salty (overly Soy Sauced) - and some of them do have a tendency for all their dishes to taste the same, like Decrepit mentioned.

But after some scary stories about Chinese restaurants I've heard in the past - I won't eat any meat I don't recognize in one, which means I generally stick to the shrimp or crab entrees.

My favorite thing on the menu = Crab Rangoons, lol.

I made a sandwich = One slice each of Honey-cured turkey, Black Forest ham, Colby-Jack cheese, and Hot Pepper Jack cheese. (On Honey-Wheat bread).
