. . in food or drink?

I just gave in to a whim and made a Marmalade milkshake. Marmalade, for those who don't know, is a chunky citrus jam. It was pretty good, not a world-beater, but nice if you want something simple and different.

What's your quirk?

I used to really enjoy "lemon" Cokes ...

Still see "cherry", "vanilla" and "lime" Cokes, but not "lemon."

Is it worth drinking with a wedge of lemon, the way the young ones drink Corona?

A shot of Jamesons with a pickle juice shot as a chaser. A Pickleback. It strangely tastes like a Big Mac. I am just not sure what that says about the drink or the sandwich...

Homemade Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake w/homemade Choc buttercream or homemade choc ganache & Walnuts on top.


As for drink--there's this concoction at the local comedy club called Liquid Laughter...it's got: Apple Schnapps, Midori, Rum & Cranberry Juice (it's a double cocktail); garnished with a cherry. It's quite tasty...but will hit you quick!

There was a time........ long long ago......... when your local 'soda fountain' jerk made your flavored coke for an extra penny on a nickle coke and two cents for a dime coke. One pump of the suryup flavor in the nickle and three pumps (the better deal :nod: )in the dime coke. Your choices were cherry (the biggest seller), vanilla, chocolate or lemon.

So I hear tell. :rolleyes2

Now you've gone too far, young Fangtasia!

There are limits, you know.

Plain or BBQ chips on a sanger, perhaps even Sour Cream and Chives, but never chicken.

My newest obsession are wasabi peas. I LOVE them so much!!!! Just don't put to many in your mouth at once or there will be pain involved. :nod:

I also have a deep love for my friend's homemade habanero pepper jelly on my ham sandwiches. I tame it down with mayo. :D

fresh not frozen french fries(best cooked in good old lard) on two pieces of buttered bread, salt and pepper to your taste and enjoy the butter running down your hands as you chow down.....sooooo bad but so damn good.

yep....chip butty rocks

Seriously? A french fry and butter sandwich? And I thought us southerners had interesting food traditions.

Oldfart
01-09-2014, 10:24 PM
It's right through the old British Empire.

Hot fries (must be very hot) on a thickly buttered (must be real butter) bread roll or sandwich.

Salt, pepper, tomato sauce (ketchup may be used if you have no tomato sauce).

The roll holds in the butter better.

I have had a soda-stream carbonator for a long time. I have finally found a soda-stream syrup which isn't heavily loaded with plastic sugar. One teaspoon of Ginger Beer syrup in a half pint glass of carbonated/seltzer/soda water.

It was simple food, from a time when meat was rationed harder than butter. Fill the guts and all is good.

I can just remember my dad having bread and dripping as an indulgence. For those of you in camp vegetable oil, roasts and baked vegetables used to be cooked in animal fat. This was reclaimed into a pot for reuse (who recycles canola or olive oil?). A significant amount of the flavoursome tiny bits floated to the surface of the dripping and after the dripping had cooled, the top scrapings became an irresistable bread topping.

Kalter Hund (Cold Dog) ... a German layered cake alternating between layers of chocolate and vanilla wafers (we like them flavored with rum). DELICIOUS!

Usually have it as a holiday treat ... very, very rich ... and very, very not low cal! :D

In the south every one saves bacon drippings. At all times peeps usually have an old coffee can filled with bacon fat either on the stove top or in the fridge.

My mother has a can of drippings too.

And I remember the episode of Everyone Loves Raymond when Marie was pissed at Frank for throwing away the jar of drippings she'd been accumulating from all the best cuts of meats over the years.

BIBI
01-13-2014, 12:14 PM
Can of drippings was always found in my house when I was a kid.Never in mine though. In fact another treat which now turns my stomach was fried bread in bacon grease......my brother loved the sandwiches OF talked about, but I didn't.

Now fried bananas....they were yummy!

Thank goodness there is no cholesterol problems on both sides of my family or I think my childhood would have produced a heart attack.... :thumb:

Before I got married, I didn't know vegetables could be served any way other than boiled to death & drowned in butter and salt.

And I hadn't heard of ground turkey. And never tasted anything other than whole milk.

ohhh.....I've been known to do that

My mother, bless her soul, would cut a thick slice of cold butter and plant it between two pieces of toast.....up until a few years ago my kid.s had thought it was cheese......it was cringe worthy

Proper salted butter is a sweet cheese, of sorts. Apart from the health issues, it's great.

Has nobody made & consumed a mayonnaise sandwich? Preferably on a hamburger bun.

In my teen years, it would Kraft mayo, about 1/4" thick, after school snack.

Add a slice of welfare block cheese or a homegrown tomato w/ salt and pepper- I lived off that. Like to toast the hamburger bun.
