Would you rather give up pizza or peanut butter?

I'd give up pizza. But I hope I never have to really make this choice.

Are you OK with the implications of grocery shopping at Wal-Mart?

I don't care if it means spending more, I won't shop in Wal-Mart for anything. Don't like their forcing jobs out of the country, their corporate philosophy or their 'Amway' style of motivation.

Cheesecake, tart cherry pie, a good sugar cookie

What dish have you had to force down with a smile?

Anything with hard boiled eggs. I just don't care for the texture.

Boo!!! It's Halloween!

At my office there has been an ongoing controversy concerning candy corn. Other then just popping it in your mouth, what is the correct way to eat it. Layer by layer from the top (pointed end) down or layer by layer from the bottom (wider end) up?

Chopsticks vs Fork

Having always been a pretty coordinated individual the, one of the few things that I have tried, but have never been able to master are chop sticks. I have, however, mastered fork, knives, spoons and fingers.

Boo!!! It's Halloween!

The heck with the Halloween candy. Pumpkin bread, apples, apple cider and pumpkin ice cream!!!

Grape Nuts with fresh blueberries, strawberries or peaches. 2% milk. Good for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Non-chocolate candy????? Does such a thing exist??

Licorice, hard peppermint or butterscotch candies.

School lunches - A walk down memory lane

The only three things I remember about school lunches were:

buying 2 slices of buttered rye bread, a scoop of tuna and making a sandwich

the lousy rubbery pizza they served

a good friend who everyday ate the same lunch. Two pints of milk, an ice cream sandwich and two Ring Dings!!! Everyday for the three years we had lunch together.

From Talk

Pancakes versus French toast — your favorite?

Pancakes. Preferably pancakes with blueberries cooked inside.

From Talk

Plain 'Ol Coffee...

I drink 2-3 cups of of black (no sugar) coffee everyday. Not a fan of flavored coffees or coffees with cream/milk. Much of my coffee comes from a local shop which has an excellent selection of coffees from different parts of the world.

From Talk

Cheesecake, what's your style?

My Mother has made the same cheesecake for many years. It has a thick graham cracker crust and the basis for the cake is all Philadelphia Cream Cheese. The only fruit that goes on it is fresh fruit, in season. Because of the richness one can only eat a small slice. I've tried other cheesecakes and none seem to have the same flavor or texture.

From Talk

Condiments are like old friends...

Good old spice horseradish mustard, mayo for somethings and Tabasco for the rest.

From Talk

Sandwiches

I'm the type that used to make almost everything on a roll or between a couple of pieces of bread. Unfortunately I can't do that any more. But my favorites were meatloaf (home made), chicken salad or a good old PB&J with Jiff creamy and Hero Black Current Jelly.

I miss bbq munchos, planters cheeseballs (there is another brand available now in a large container that are good but...) and morton raspberry filled powdered donuts. Oh, those were the days.

does anyone else remember "Milkshake" candy bars. Tasted like a chocolate malt.Also a Japanese hard candy in a round red tin. We used to call it umeboshi candy.

I think it was Keebler used to make these fudge sandwich cookies in a box. They were like a coco flavor with a fudge creme center. the were just called fudge sandwich cookies. Haven't been able to find them since the early nineties. The were great.Also miss the cheez balls in a can.

Chopsticks vs Fork

I am Chinese and have been using chopsticks for as long as I can remember. However, I only use them for Chinese-style food. In contrast, my father uses chopsticks for everything, claiming that they are the perfect utensil. He even uses them to eat potato chips and cake!

From Talk

I loved lemon coolers too, and also pecan sandies. I also miss rice honeys cereal - they also had a really cool cowboy bee mascot on the package and in the commercials.

OK, Marathon Bars were the bomb, especially frozen. Does anyone remember a chocolate bar called Chocolite. It was alll chocolate, but had a lot of air bubbles on the inside. How about actual Gatorade Gum? I do remember the bacon chips, they were small bacon shaped crisps. Does anybody remember Doritos Sour Cream and Onion?

Where Did the Swedish Chef Muppet Come From?

I thought Chef Tell was Swiss. He often ended his segments with the catchphrase, "very simple, very easy, very good."

Wasn't it "save the giblets?"

Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?

I love eating non-breakfast foods for breakfast. As for savories, I love soup, salads and sandwiches--for sweets, I love birthday cake, and desserts typically served after dinner: cheesecake, truffles, pudding, etc.

Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?

I love breakfast, from pancakes and maple syrup to eggs benedict. But for me, nothing beats a bowl of cereal, or oatmeal in the winter. It hits the spot everytime, and I could quite happily eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?

I have to have something sweet in the mornings - so if it's a bagel it has to be cinnamon raisin with sweet honey raisin cream cheese - I love whitefish salad on pumpernickel bagels but it would seem heresy to have one first thing! I can easily eat something like carrot cake or a scone with jam and quark - or leftover plum or apricot crumble if I've had people round for dinner. And of course there's there traditional post Thanksgiving pumpkin-pie-for-breakfast the day after... and since I am British, mince pies for breakfast throughout December - only the posh ones from fancy bakeries though. In fact I had one this morning with some fromage frais on the side.

I retired just about a year ago, after 34 years of teaching. While I was working, my breakfast varied between a chew-bar [Kashi's Roasted Almond Crunch] and a bagel w/ cream cheese (despite being in a rural district in upstate NY, our school cafeteria had fresh bagels available each morning). The choice of the morning would be downed w/ a few swigs of bottled water.

Now that I've retired, I must admit that my favorite breakfasts are leftovers - either Chinese leftovers, or homemade leftovers - right now, the latter is baked macaroni. The Chinese I reheat, but macaroni, etc. I usually go at straight out of the fridge. [I feel I must note that my wife is still working, and so I can pretty much raid the fridge for whatever "breakfast" I find.]

However, if I have to go out early in the morn for a dr appt, or to do shopping (yes, I'm generally the grocery shopper @ the house), I usually wind up w/ a bagel and coffee @ the local DD.

Yes! Well, that is unless I happen to wake up after noon, but even then most of the time I still eat my regular breakfast, it's a ritual with me. It's my favorite meal of the day.

I am over breakfast foods right now, since I am allergic to eggs and intolerant to wheat. I love to make potatoes, sweet potatoes or squash and a big salad. Pretty much anything goes at breakfast these days!

I don't eat breakfast as often as I should, but I have been known to makea grill cheese, or a salad as well. I'm even known to sometimes crank up the charcoal grill before 10:00AM.

From Talk

Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?

Absolutely not! Breakfast for dinner is not only quick and easy but it's fun. I do that sometimes when BF is away on business, I have no leftovers to kill and don't feel like cooking.

And what's better at 3:00 a.m. after a night of clubbing than a greasy fried egg breakfast with home fries and toast?

My favorite brekkie is a big bowl of steel-cut oatmeal, subdivided to provide a 2/3 portion "entree" and a 1/3 "dessert. The entree I spike with a bit of salt and either dark sesame oil OR evoo and 1/2 tsp od crushed garlic. The dessert portion gets a daub of butter and a bit of brown sugar for after.

I love breakfast at non-breakfast times. and the ideas here are just amazing for both breakfast types food and the non-breakfast morning foods!

my favorite non-breakfasty morning meal ever has to be in Jaipur where they have milk and jalebis for breakfast.

I used to skip breakfast since I don't want to get up any earlier than I have too. Now I go with muffins. I make a ton of muffins (usually 3 different kinds) and freeze them. In the morning, I pop one or two in the microwave for 30 sec and then eat it while getting ready. This month I've have pumpkin-cranberry muffins, banana-pecan muffins, and coconut-raspberry muffins.

Do You Always Eat Breakfast for Breakfast?

I usually eat traditional breakfast foods for breakfast (and sometimes dinner too, when the hubby's away) -- but I'll certainly never turn down leftover pizza in the morning! If I have leftover apple crisp in the fridge I'll have a few bits of that too -- but only after having something else.

isn't that why Denny's and IHOP were created? So we can have breakfast at 3:30 in the AM with poorly dressed college students and half-cocked drunk people coming out of bars?
