Yeah, yeah, I know... I posted about Chocolate Candy on Friday, The Pillsbury Doughboy  yesterday, and more food today. Hey, what else is left that’s so pleasurable? I gave up rollerblading a few months ago when I fell and scared the daylights out of my youngest daughter. I gave up shopping when... long ago. I gave up movies and TV when I became self-employed and had to work all the time. I gave up books when my eyesight went to hell. I gave up men when my supply ran out. But food is still good. Not that I’ve taken up cooking again or anything, but a nice ham and cheese sandwich on rye with mustard brings a smile to my face! And so does pizza, Hunan pork, Mom’s spaghetti sauce, crockpot chili, and a bite of chocolate for dessert.

What is the manliest manly dish you could serve for Superbowl Sunday? Carl served a Baconpig, a hotdog wrapped in ground pork wrapped in bacon. In a pig shape.

FLOUR AND WATER

(via Old Horsetail Snake)
How come when you mix flour and water together you get glue? But then you add eggs and sugar, and you get cake?

Where did the glue go?

You know darned well where it went! That's what makes cake stick to your butt. Ho ho har de har har.

THE EATING CONTEST

(via Phil’s Phun)
In Fyfe, Scotland, there's an annual tench-eating competition [tench are small fish like sardines].

The world champion, Sven from Finland, was in Fyfe to defend his title.

Local boy Hix won through to the final and it was a contest between him and Sven.

The result was that Hix ate 27 tench and Sven managed only nine - so Hix was crowned world champion.

The headline?

One To Three For Fyfe's Hix, Sven Ate Nine Tench.

NOT YOUR MAMA’S CHILI

(Thanks, Rich!)
A young cowboy walks into the town cafe. He sits at the counter and notices an old cowboy with his arms folded, staring blankly at a full bowl of chili.

After fifteen minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the young cowboy bravely asked the old cowpoke, "If you ain't gonna eat that, mind if I do?"

The older cowboy slowly turns his head toward the young wrangler and in his best cowboy manner says, "Nah, go ahead."

Eagerly, the young cowboy reaches over and slides the bowl over to his place and starts spooning in it with delight. He gets nearly down to the bottom and notices a dead mouse in the chili. The sight was shocking and he immediately barfs up the chili back into the bowl.

The old cowboy lifts his head up and looks the younger man straight in the eyes, and quietly says, "Yep, that's as far as I got, too."

Toast for Breakfast

Previously at Miss Cellania: lots more posts on Food.

Thought for today: I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.
