Odd Eating Habits (and other oddities)

My twin sister likes to eat her grapes frozen.

 

Tonight, wanting something for "dessert" (about 3 hours after I had supper) I got some cake mix and just mixed it up with water in a bowl and microwaved it, then shoved it down my trap. I do that because I don't want to make a 'whole' cake, with nobody else to eat any of it.

 

I forgot, my sister also boils her pepsi before drinking it. she drinks it hot like coffee.

 

Ever since her second pregnancy some 23 years ago, she has always boiled her pepsi. I remember on our 33rd birthday, we went to Shoneys for breakfast and she ordered pepsi and had the waitress zap it in the microwave!

I can't say how it tastes, as I have not braved that mountain myself.

 

I know what waffles, peanut butter, and NutriGrain bars are, and if "Cheddar" means the cheese originally made in the place of that name in Somerset, England, I know that, too.

But the only "Three Musketeers" I know are those in the book by Alexander Dumas and I have no idea what might make "Arby's" different to any other roast beef. I seem to remember that Klondike had something to do with gold mining, so perhaps "Klondike bars" are sweets (candy) made to look like gold ingots? No idea what "Little Debbies" might be.

 

Does this Lamb live in a cave? He he :laugh:

Good point.
My first thought was he eats very healthy and doesn't watch much tv, so he wasn't familiar with this type of food.

You know I love that organic cooking
I always ask for more
And they call me Mr. Natural
On down to the health food store
I only eat good sea salt
White sugar don't touch my lips
And my friends is always
Begging me to take them
On macrobiotic trips
Yes, they are
Oh, but at night I stake out my strongbox
That I keep under lock and key
And I take it off to my closet
Where nobody else can see
I open that door so slowly
Take a peek up north and south
Then I pull out a Hostess Twinkie
And I pop it in my mouth
Yeah, in the daytime I'm Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me
Well, at lunchtime
You can always find me
At the Whole Earth Vitamin Bar
Just sucking on my plain white yogurt
From my hand thrown pottery jar
And sippin' a little hand pressed cider
With a carrot stick for dessert
And wiping my face
In a natural way
On the sleeve of my peasant shirt
Oh yeah
Ah, but when that clock strikes midnight
And I'm all by myself
I work that combination
On my secret hideaway shelf
And I pull out some Fritos corn chips
Dr. Pepper and an Ole Moon Pie
Then I sit back in glorious expectation
Of a genuine junk food high
Oh yeah, in the daytime I'm Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me
My friends down at the commune
They think I'm pretty neat
Oh, I don't know nothing about arts and crafts
But I give 'em all something to eat
I'm a friend to old Euell Gibbons
And I only eat homegrown spice
I got a John Keats autographed Grecian urn
Filled up with my brown rice
Yes, I do
Oh, but folks lately I have been spotted
With a Big Mac on my breath
Stumbling into a Colonel Sanders
With a face as white as death
I'm afraid someday they'll find me
Just stretched out on my bed
With a handful of Pringles Potato Chips
And a Ding Dong by my head
In the daytime I'm Mr. Natural
Just as healthy as I can be
But at night I'm a junk food junkie
Good lord have pity on me

 

Sort of, if for "cave" you read "semi-detached bungalow", but his "cave", unlike those of Fred & Wilma and Barney & Betty, is not in America, but in England, where as far as I know, "Little Debbies" etc. are still unknown. (We do have KFC, McDonalds, and in some towns and cities, we can drink coffee at a "Starbucks" )

 

My kids put catsup on their hot dogs. That should be illegal.

I saw someone put BBQ sauce on their pizza (yech).

I put vinegar in and on a lot of things. I add lots of vinegar to a bowl of lentils, put it on fries, etc.

I try to stay away from junk food and candy, but if I happen to get "peeps" (marshmallow chicks, etc.), I'll eat them if they're really stale and chewy.

 

Peanut butter and mayonaise sandwich. You cant beat it.

 

cottage cheese topped with pineapple chunks and - now we get to the fun part! - red pepper flakes. Lots of 'em!

semi-burnt scrambled eggs with maple syrup. Yummy!!!! Sometimes lean bacon pieces with maple syrup. Even yummier!!!

hot grits with lots of black pepper and - you guessed it - maple syrup!

 

Hotdogs without catsup is American activities :laugh:

My father introduced me to the following:

Two soft boiled eggs dumped into a drinking glass.
Add salt, miracle whip and about ten soda crackers broken up.
Stir and enjoy

He used a little Shedd's meat sauce but cannot find that any more.

 

My Dad, now in Heaven, loved catsup on EVERYTHING! Once he stayed at someone's house where the kids found out his preference. At breakfast, sure enough, there was a catsup bottle by his plate. So he smothered his scrambled eggs in it and wolfed it down!

As for me, I like my salmon raw, my grits wet, my rice sticky, my okra boiled or fried, and my ramen with lots of butter and corn. Yum! But I will always reject squid on pizza, a Japanese favorite.

 

woohhooo!

I hardly ever find anyone else who likes those!

Used to have them almost every day in my lunch for school.
