Pepperoni Ramen Pizza

mm, all I can see are maggot. Tons of squiggly maggots. Topped with cheese.

Gross Out Food Moment

One year when I was still pretty young, I was helping with the turkey for thanksgiving and mixed up a box of instant stuffing. The stuffing must have been a couple of years old, cause when I pulled the turkey out after an hour or so to check progress, I noticed some unusual wriggling inside the turkey. After staring in disbelief for a couple of minutes, i realized it was maggots. My mother quickly scooped out the stuffing, washed out the turkey, and made me promise not to tell the rest of the family about the critters. No more boxed stuffing for me ever again.

Hey hey now, where's the love for HOTLIPS pizza? Sure, it may not be N.Y style, but it's my fave slice purveyor in town.

NY NY on Barbur off the Terwilliger curbs is run by a true NY import and has the closest to the real thing I've found. He got written up in the local pages back in '01 I think for having the largest pie in town, thus requiring a dine in only because they couldn't make a box big enough. Slices are massive and topped to order.

A hazelnut cookie filled with dark chocolate-irish cream tinged ganache would be amazing.

I would also be in support of a simple mocha cookie with caramel filling sprinkled with sea salt.
