    I just looked up the instructions on making the bacon placemat!
    I love the blurb, "eating a whole placemat ain't a good idea!"

    Why that's a good college hazing project!

    ----------------

    I wasted a whole hour last night watching GF and his Family Feast program.

    What is the program supposed to be? A cooking show? A 'family' show? I have to admit that I was more curious about his family. LOL, dad is taller than he is.
    He looks like his sister and mom. I took it that the sis was a veggie...

    I always wonder about that - GF kept up with the "we are eating seafood, you are eating granola!" WHY even bother having her come up on stage?
    I have had my share of meals where I didn't care for the food or an ingredient, but I ate anyway. Some effing veggies act like they are going to die if they even touch meat-I know there are people who will get ill if they come in contact with some food/products-but I find them less hostile and calmer when they come across the subject. Some 'by choice' veggies are rude and try to make you feel guilty for eating meat. GF's sis looked like she was biting her tongue about it.

    THe show was really bad, there was no cooking, as far as giving out a recipe and the eating at the end was kinda rude too, I know he fed the audience, but it looked like sandwiches-not the food he cooked.


    The other thing that make me laugh is the spinning utensils trick he does with the platters.
    I may have to bill the TVFN for my lost time? Ya think?

    OH! Had to tell you guys that Guy Fieri's recipe for Mean Green Beans was a HIT at my house. I was shocked!!! It really tastes good.

    A few things, the bacon CAN be omitted and you'd never notice it. The fresh deep fried onions on the top are EASY to do, and omg, are they ever worth it!!! My mom kept picking them off and eating them before I got to put them on the casserole, lol.

    Very tasty, very well liked, you guys outta try it!!

    I ran by the Iron Chef battle with Batali and Oliver and wanted to die.

    One of the assistant chefs opened up an ostrich egg and when he saw the yolk was broken tossed the whole thing into the garbage.

    AB said it was worth 20 eggs.......what an omelet that would have made for some hungry people?

    But they don't feed hungry people, just critics.

    I find "Man vs. Food" offensive on so many levels. It can't be healthy to eat that much food, and that's just plain being a glutton when so many people don't have enough.

    That's one of the reasons I cannot stomach-pun intended- Guy Feedme (Fieri). I would like to slap him when he goes into the restaurant kitchens and acts like a friggin pig. I refuse to see the comedy of trying to stuff a corned beef sandwich into your piehole because you can. Give me chefs, not animals or personalities.

    -----------------


    Last night I was listening to talk radio and the subject was food and buffets.

    Some places are adding a 3% fee to diners who waste food.

    I love buffets and never ever serve myself more than I can eat. I always clean my plate and it ices me to see people pile on the food and leave half of it on the table.

    I also cannot stand the folks who let their kids serve themselves-like animals- then beg them to eat 'one more spoon' of a serving that's suited for a grownup.

    The kid pushes the more than half filled plate away and I just think of all the people that would have killed for some of that food.
