Serious Sandwiches: The Chip Butty
Don't forget the Grease Trucks at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ. They have "Fat" sandwiches, most of which include fries. They are great after a night of drinking, and if you can eat two, then you can name a new one.
Mario Unclogged: A Great Meal at Seattle's Steelhead Diner
I'm so sorry to hear of your cousin's death. That sounds like a spectacular diner. I'm from New Jersey, arguably the best place for diners in the US, and I'm sure I couldn't get anything like that there. Now I live in the midwest and LONG for the beauty of an all-night diner that serves breakfast 24-hours a day.
The Best Frozen Custard
Heh, Ed, I detect the slightest note of sarcasm in your apology! ;) I don't actually care so much about the geography, but I am surprised that your custard survey didn't include Culvers, which a lot of people (not just me!) feel is better than both Michael's and Kopp's.
Anyway! thanks for highlighting custard, in general. I do love it, and was pleasantly surprised to find it out here in the midwest. Speaking of custard, I wish Rita's Italian Ices would move out here... as I recall, they have an OK custard to go with their ices.

Favorite foods: Anything and everything -- I am no picky eater, though I am married to one.
Last bite on earth:

This study annoys me. Picky eaters are already wholly obnoxious with their aversions to taste/texture. Now they can blame it on "genetics," rather than just taking responsibility for the fact that they don't want to try new things.
Remember, folks: even if you have the breast cancer gene, it doesn't mean you'll get breast cancer. So, even if you have the picky eater gene, it doesn't mean you HAVE to be a picky eater.
I do, however, think it is learned by watching parents. My MIL is an extremely picky eater, and so is my husband. I have slowly begun forcing him to integrate foods like mushrooms and asparagus and fish, but it is a slow and incredibly frustrating process.
