The Most Disgusting School Lunches
Oh, someone else had slimy green hotdogs as well! School lunches also made me hate lunch meat ham and cheese. I generally avoided school lunches except the square pizza and this one meat sauce entree.
Tater tots were are a weakness.
Photo of the Day: Elephant Spout on Oil Bottle
Cute + functional = AWESOMENESS.
I'm going to see if I can find this oil at my local Korean market.
How to Make Spam Musubi
OMG, thank you thank you thank you! My spam musubi-obsessed friend and I have been trying to figure out the sauce spam is fried in! I guess we'll be fiddling around a bit with Kathy's recipe and lorelei76's comments. :D
One Trick Pony Restaurants
I'm sure there are plenty of restaurants that do this already but I'd open one that served everything on a stick...cuz almost everything tastes better on a stick.
What do you do with pineapple?
I love Maui Gold pineapples plain. Also, grilled pineapple rings on a burger with a bit of homemade teriyaki sauce is fantastic!!!

I live in MN! Can't beat a corn dog at the fair, it's the first thing I get. The pickle popsicle wasn't that good, total letdown as I am a pickle person.
@maryn - great pictures!

I went yesterday and had the tater tots OAS and they were delicious! I also enjoyed pizza OAS but that was more like a calzone with chopsticks inside :(
Can't wait for next year's fair! Maybe we can organize an SE meet-up!

@kj415...Jeff Dunham is exactly who I was thinking of.
@Teri...I'm glad those tater tots were as good as I imagine they would be.
@maryn...Thanks for the link. I can't help humorously thinking that Puff Daddy on a stick sounds a bit cannibalistic, as if Sean Combs is being served up as fair food. ;)

Every year I go to the Minnesota State Fair, I try a new food on a stick--this year it was the tator tots. They were fabulous...made me want to try cooking them at home--very flavorful.
Today's the last day of the fair and there are several convention-goers in attendance due to the shorten convention schedule.

@manda - you, me, and "Something About Mary"! It even translates into Hebrew - I said "ha kol yoter tov b'shipud" at a beach party a month ago, and someone said "oh, yeah, Something About Mary, that was a good movie"!
The Most Disgusting School Lunches
i don't know about these days but when i was in high school in the early eighties we had lunch ladies that made the best rolls and you could smell them baking all over the school...i liked chili with rice day because it came with cinnamon rolls and was pretty tasty. my friends mother was the head lunch lady.
