I feel the working class spirit of the Taco will beat out the flashy yuppie Sushi quite easily.

let's get real about this: anybody who votes cheesecake over chocolate needs to donate his or her GI tract to somebody who'll make better use of it

Timed to give weekend-only ilxors (if there is such a thing) a shot at voting.

Sushi, Limes, Houmous, Chocolate.

Never been the biggest fan of sausages. Houmous is godly and I feel ashamed for not voting for it in the previous round.

British Burrito (acoleuthic), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:12 (fifteen years ago)

I will proudly vote cheesecake.

I love cheesecake but yeah let's be realistic here.

a fucking stove just fell on my foot. (Colonel Poo), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:12 (fifteen years ago)

Jagger proves he is nothing but LAVENDER by turning his back on THE BURG.

Guernsey Shore (King Boy Pato), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:13 (fifteen years ago)

i eat more chocolate than cheesecake but good cheesecake is sooooo good i dunno how chocolate could compare tbh.

no, you're dead right, it's a macaroon (ledge), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:14 (fifteen years ago)

Ugh, I only like one option in this whole round, and even that's fairly boring. Might not even bother voting.

enjoy your hummus

measuring of the waist (HI DERE), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:19 (fifteen years ago)

(just fyi, I will vote for sushi over everything, including oxygen)

measuring of the waist (HI DERE), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:19 (fifteen years ago)

we have this white bean and basil hummus from trader joe's in the house, and it's one of the most amazing things in ths universe

iatee, Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:20 (fifteen years ago)

i guess no chocolate means no chocolate cake or torte or mousse or anything. if you sat me down in a michelin starred restaurant and made me pick between cheesecake or a chocolate dessert - that would be torture.

no, you're dead right, it's a macaroon (ledge), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:20 (fifteen years ago)

okay that hummus sounds amazing, I guess you will be enjoying it after all

in the end, the joke was on me

measuring of the waist (HI DERE), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:21 (fifteen years ago)

if you sat me down in a michelin starred restaurant and made me pick between cheesecake or a chocolate dessert - that would be torture.

do you usually order both?

peter in montreal, Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:22 (fifteen years ago)

i just get one of everything on the menu tbh, stick it on my tab.

DIFFICULT TIMES CALL FOR LIMES

It's like normal life except you power up by peeing (ciderpress), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 13:56 (fifteen years ago)

sushi, limes, burgers, cheesecake

sushi and tacos are both vast universes of flavors and textures I've barely gotten past the surface of -- full of surprises and hairpin turns. Sushi won by a fraction of a whisker -- I couldn't begin to give a coherent reason why, my hindbrain just said sushi.

I love sausage in general, but lime is my single favorite flavor in this poll.

Burgers -- check the screen name.

Cheesecake simultaneously gives me more intense pleasure and more comfort (in the comfort-food sense) than chocolate.

this is the only option for me

I voted the same way, Amanda. High five!

jaymc, Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:02 (fifteen years ago)

High five! We voted that way because we're right.

this is the truth

limes vs sausages - impossible

a difficult choice unless posed rightly - just vote for the one that almost never has rat hair in it

gross rainbow of haerosmith (underrated aerosmith albums I have loved), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:04 (fifteen years ago)

okay I don't know where you're getting your limes but I suggest a change

measuring of the waist (HI DERE), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:04 (fifteen years ago)

With a lime, you know what you're getting. You're getting a LIME. You're getting a tangy citrus punch in the face that tastes great on everything from soup to drinks to meats to fruit.

I wish I could say the same for "sausage"...

ghee hee hee (La Lechera), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:05 (fifteen years ago)

will cheesecake stall out at two votes?

xxxp LOL

recommended use of limes: rub a lime wedge on a slice of canteloupe before you eat it

limes vs sausages:

this is hard btw

no, you're dead right, it's a macaroon (ledge), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:08 (fifteen years ago)

although as this is a food poll not a drink poll...

no, you're dead right, it's a macaroon (ledge), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:09 (fifteen years ago)

sausages: so much to answer for

fuck, dude, that sounds awesome!!!

rub a lime on your 'sausage' before you 'eat' it

I don't know- if you take the spirit of the poll as being 'good examples of this food' rather than 'the ones with rat hair in them' you'll prob make more consistent picks imo.

i'm giving comfort and aid to the enemy by posting this but what the hey

no, you're dead right, it's a macaroon (ledge), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:14 (fifteen years ago)

interesting fact: most limes these days are harvested by trained (non-union) rats, so you actually have more of a chance of getting rat hairs in your limes than in your sausages!

titchyschneiderhouserules (s1ocki), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:14 (fifteen years ago)

omg so relieved i voted for sausages now that's disgusting

"It's far from 'lol' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:15 (fifteen years ago)

xp - maybe, but i don't remember the last time i even ate a sausage. i eat limes almost every day in some way. i always have them at home, like ALWAYS, and sausages are just...tubed meats. i don't hate them, but they're not limes.

i will say that i appreciate the versatility and utility of sausages.

ghee hee hee (La Lechera), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:16 (fifteen years ago)

that's what she said

titchyschneiderhouserules (s1ocki), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:17 (fifteen years ago)

they're a great storage mechanism for rat hairs and an effective rat hair distribution tool for large food-serving institutions.

ghee hee hee (La Lechera), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:19 (fifteen years ago)

sausages are just...tubed meats

mmm i don't want to tell you that you've been trying the wrong sausages, but tbh......

"It's far from 'lol' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 14:20 (fifteen years ago)

I sometimes wonder if I am imposing some extra pleasure on sushi because of its price.

"It's far from 'lol' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Wednesday, 28 July 2010 16:34 (fifteen years ago)

Tacos, Limes, Hummus, Chocolate

picking tacos over sushi was difficult cuz good sushi is ~sublime~ but i don't think it has ever given me the sheer joy that tacos have. like maybe this will change in our effete socialist america but i never once yelled, as a child, with sheer unbridled enthusiasm, "sushiiiiii!" but i def yelled "tacoooos!!" at least once a week (thurs).

and that was for tacos that were kinda bad in retrospect!

voting limes over sausage was a no-brainer---limes make EVERYTHING taste better

hummus over burgers: man i just can't get excited about a burger anymore. voted hummus mostly because i eat like 100000x as often

chocolate: never really fucked with cheesecake, tbh.

kinda not sure people aren't fronting about sushi but w/e; tacos by a mile

hummus vs. burgers is tough cos of my history with burgers but those days are over & hummus is the bestest easy food in the world: we put so much garlic in ours that it oughta be called gummus except that sounds gross

I hope cheesecake loses 100 to 0 (haven't read the thread yet)

sausages is a respectable & ancient food group, imo. throw in all the dried/cured options and the win was almost guaranteed. delicious as limes may be.

fucking tacos over sushi is the shit that gets my goat. come back, goat, and bring me sushi.

a CRASBO is a "criminally related" ASBO (contenderizer), Monday, 2 August 2010 17:44 (fifteen years ago)

throw in all the dried/cured options

but I didn't, OK? been through this on the N/E thread.

wtf limes is an add-on, sausage is a FOOD.

this is not a shock result notwithstanding a vocal minority of right-on limewhingers

"It's far from 'lol' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Monday, 2 August 2010 17:52 (fifteen years ago)

tocos are cheap, i agree, but if i could only eat sushi for the rest of my life, i'd be happy. not so much the tocos.

a CRASBO is a "criminally related" ASBO (contenderizer), Monday, 2 August 2010 18:02 (fifteen years ago)

but yeah, tacos = endless possibility folded inside a warm tortilla, so it's hard to complain

limes
