Fasting May Reset Sleep Cycle, Cure Jet Lag
I tried this with flight from Narita to JFK... did not work, even after a full 24 hours of not eating.
Should Fast Food Chains Give Kids Toys?
The toys keep the kids coming back for more food. My 6 yo brother could care less if the fries he was eating was made of potato or rocks. All he wants is the toy.

Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: Baron VonFunburger's Haunted Castle Cavalcade
I love corndogs... I can have corndogs in the morning. I can have corndogs for 12 meals straight and not get sick of it.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
i've never seen this dish before in my life.
Seolleongtang, Ox Bone Broth, from Gahm Mi Oak
I love this place!!! Great Seoulleongtang for a decent price, and their Soondae isn't bad either.
Snapshots from South Korea: Hotteok, Two Ways
Pretty darn sure that during the winters the Flushing H-mart (Han-ah-reum) sells these along with the taiyaki. But if they don't, they DEFINATELY sell the pre-mixed packages that come with the mix for the dough, a packet of the cinnamon-sugar-nuts mix that you stuff in and the metal plate-thing you use to flatten the whole thing when you're frying hotteok.
Asian Markets Attract Budget-Minded Chefs
H-mart!!!! I loves it... but the counterpart H&Y is nearer to my house and PLUS there's a restaurant, korean bakery and a sushi rolls place attatched to it. I wish I could go more often...

The Best Fried Chicken in Fast Food: Not the Colonel, Not Popeyes
Does anyone know a place near here I might be able to bring the chicken over to eat? I live kinda far away and wouldn't like to risk carrying on the train ride home...
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
A Hole in One!!!! My grandfather used to make these for me when I was a very little girl, visiting him in Lancaster, PA. He was not a golfer. He was first-generation American of Swedish descent, who had grown up in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Some great names here - I love Egyptian Eyes especially! But wow: over 200 comments, and apparently no one else calls them "top hats". (And yes, I always thought my mother invented them, too. :) )
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My hubby made these for me for me all the time when we were in college - we call them Eggs in a Basket.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
@Ed Levine - My mom called them "Egyptian eggs" as well. I think me, you and Embackus's friend were the only one. It seems to be the least known name for them.

Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Everyone knows it's called a "bunny egg". My grandmother invented it.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Growing up Dad called it a Bulls Eye (from Rhode Island). We always loved when Dad had to make breakfast! He cut the hole with a shot glass so the hole was just big enough for the yolk part and the rest of the egg ran over the bread so you had to flip it and cook that side too! Just don't over cook it and it won't be dry. The hardest part was buttering both sides of the bread. I get around that now by using a brush and softened butter.

My mom made this legendary sandwich only once in my life, and I still think about it from time to time. I've just never assembled the ingredients to make it myself (don't know why..the list is rather scant): white bread, Kewpie mayonnaise, and a generous sprinkling of rousong (an Asian pork condiment http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rousong).

But I'd also love to wrap myself around anything on this page: http://bit.ly/aurwd

Harriet M. Welsh was right: you can't beat a tomato sandwich.

I'm one of those people who enjoys ranch on almost anything!!!!!! it's just one of those condiments that gets along with amost everyone (savoury I may add)
I'm not as crazy as some of you guys; so here's mine:
- cucumber + camembert sandwiches,
- sauerkraut perogies baked with chili and topped with cheddar
- plain mcchicken with their 'nugget mustard sauce'
- pizza sauce, green onion and canned shrimp baked with cheese on a honey-bun
@zerogirl: wow. thats.....interesting! do you make your own redcurrant jelly?
@FeedingFive: that burger sounds right up my hangover alley! I'll have to try that one iwth heavy heavy mayo
@carolow: PB + mayo sounds strange; but when I was young I would eat PB + cheesewhiz (when the rents werent' looking!) haha
Crazy Combinations
All I can say is--- why?
Even the biggest bender or herb withdrawl could not induce me to eat some of these combos.
Crazy Combinations
@tinat-- I used to love Cheetos and miracle whip when I was a kid, so Brie and Cheetos sounds right up my alley!
Crazy Combinations
We used to go to der Weinerschnitzel after a night out. My favorite meal to ward off a hangover was a hamburger (no cheese) with saurkraut on it and an order of chili-cheese fries with diced onion and jalepenos. It's a wonder I was so slender during college.
Crazy Combinations
My dad loves peanut butter and mayo sandwiches. Sounds really gross, but not too bad. I just don't prefer them.
As for grilled cheese sandwiches, I like to dip mine in ketchup. Yum!
Crazy Combinations
It's not a sandwich, but just discovered this weekend, brie and Cheetos!
Crazy Combinations
Fried egg sandwich slathered with yellow mustard - this from a guy who is SO picky you cannot use a herb or any kind of spice on any of his food, and canned vegetables only with his meat and potatoes - go figure!
Crazy Combinations
White bread with bananas, crispy bacon, blue cheese and dollops of cream cheese, topped with a mild melting cheese, grilled, sandwiched, and served with redcurrant jelly.

I think most college campuses have a sandwich shop that specializes in these kind of things. The one time I had one, there were boneless wings, french fries, and some other stuff I can't remember. I was not impressed, and I am the queen of combining strange foods. I made a beef jerky and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich once.
I used to work at a bagel place, and one of the dishwashers would always eat a bacon egg and cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel with mayo and grape jelly. Yuck.
Should Fast Food Chains Give Kids Toys?
I remember growing up and being really happy to sometimes get a toy from my fast food meal. I really miss those Mario-themed toys from McDonald's! So I can tell from personal experience that the toys did made me want to go. And we'd go once in a while.
To state that it is the parents' responsibility to choose where to eat is too obvious considering the SE audience. There are families out there that just don't have the time/privilege/knowledge/understanding to fend for themselves. I'd like to draw a comparison with the recent credit crunch where creditors were lending money to people who normally shouldn't be able to get one. Some things may be common sense to some, but not to others.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My mom always called this "egg in a hat" - I guess when you put the cut-out circle back on top of the hole in the toast, without pushing it all the way in, it looks a little like a hat...

that innocuous salt on the tables is MSG salt!
