Holiest of lunch trinities

Food September 1st, 2005

The holiest of sack lunch trinities has to be the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, Doritos, and Mountain Dew.

Now, you can vary your peanut butter from smooth to chunky. You can swap out jams and jelly flavors, or even use bananas in a pinch. You can use a different flavor of Doritos, if you like anything better than the original. You can also swap in a Code Red, or like I am today, a Livewire.

It’s flexible in that it can change as you change, but is a timeless classic that is always great. Mmmmm….

Too good to pass up. Be sure to watch the trailer, and then go buy me lots of dark chocolate M&M’s (in stores now!)

M&M’s chocolate M-pire

(I liked how all the M&Ms were in costume for the Star Wars characters, but Yoda was just a green M&M.)

Gourmet vs Gourmand vs Glutton

Food, General March 9th, 2005

From the word of the day:

Gourmand is from French gourmand, “greedy.”

Usage note: A gourmet is one who has discriminating taste in
food and wine. A gourmand is one who enjoys food of fine
quality, and also one who enjoys food in great quantities.
Glutton signifies one who simply eats to excess, without
reference to the quality of the fare consumed.

Good to know.

The dish, a specialty of Mulligan’s, a suburban bar, is a hot dog wrapped by a beef patty that’s deep fried, covered with chili, cheese and onions and served on a hoagie bun. Oh yeah, it’s also topped with a fried egg and two fistfuls of fries.
