Food Meme, Glorious Food Meme
This meme is fresh from your grocer's sharkbait section!
What's the last thing you ate?
A hot dog with mustard, onions & relish.
What's your favorite cheese?
Most any old type of cheese will do / But I do enjoy a cheese that's bleu!
What's your favorite fish?
Catfish. Fried. With tartar sauce & hush puppies. Num!
What's your favorite fruit?
Ummmm - not really a fruit guy that much. I guess I'll go with grapes.
When, if ever, did you start liking olives?
I didn't.
When, if ever, did you start liking beer?
I didn't.
When, if ever, did you start liking shellfish?
If you define shellfish to include shrimp, I'd say about 20 years ago. Otherwise, see above.
What was the best thing your parent/s used to make?
Mom made a whole lot of good stuff, but I especially miss her mashed potatoes and her pound cake and especially her biscuits! She'd cut them out of the dough using an orange juice can she'd opened both ends of, and at the end she'd flip the oven over to broil for a couple of minutes to make them nice and brown, and even the raw dough was great! Dad used to make this grilled cheese cheeseburger in a cast iron skillet that I would give a week's pay to have one more of!
What's the native specialty of your home town?
Barbequeueueueeue! We are home to Big Bob Gibson's BBQ!
What's your comfort food?
Either a PBB (Peanut Butter and Butter) sammich or homemade pimiento cheese!
What's your favorite type of chocolate?
I don't know what it's called, but it comes in these bars, and it's kinda brown. 8-]

Medium to Medium Well, with Mayo, Mustard, Catsup, Onion, Pickle and a slice o' cheese. I'll also accept Heinz 57 and, if I'm in the mood, lettuce.
