matter-of-fact statements on the subject of food

i forgot how much i liked pretzels

one of the things my mom gave me for my birthday was a can of tuna. i don't really like tuna. I hated tuna growing up because I didn't like the way it smelled.

avocado: is the best fruit

i don't like boring peppers.

extra-sharp cheddar cheese is delicious.

i had a hamburger for the first time in over 10 years. it was delicious. it was actually a cheeseburger.

"i like food. food is good."

"you just need more salt"

i can't stress enough that canned tuna smells gross.

When I said, "That smells gross," about my brother's canned tuna mixture for a sandwich, he wanted me to know that, "Well, I think what you cook is gross, too."

What do you cook?

Usually vegetables. A meat will be hamburger, stew meat cut smaller or chicken legs. Every three months or so I'll buy a package of sausage. Usually, if I'm not cooking the chicken, which takes forever, I'll grease the skillet with a splash of soy sauce over the vegetables, but they're the only things I worry about sticking. Sometimes I make legitimate stew.

stew is pretty tasty.

I don't usually add spices, though if I run out of soy sauce I'll add maybe paprika, cumin and coriander.

Stew is too filling and it can be urpy.

I've been meaning to ask you what "urpy" means.

Makes you feel like you're going to burp, or you do so.

got it - granola with dried fruit in greek yogurt is currently what i want for lunch.

I would eat that. Well, I don't like dried fruit that much, except strawberries sometimes. I like real fruit fine. Dried fruit can taste too sweet, especially those apricots.

yeah actually - now that you mention it - that was my one complaint yesterday - the dried fruit was too sweet - yogurt covered pretzels are good to balance it out.

Yes they are.

i had a cheeseburger last night - i realized i had not had a burger with beef in over a decade.

An ice cream maker would be a fun thing to have.

I have one. I left it in Knoxville. My best ice cream was pomegranate with chocolate flakes. My second best was a savory green tea.

Pomegranate w/chocolate sounds great. I've had that before - it used to be in the same freezer where the chipotle (or chile) ice cream was.

the soon-to-be-ex really likes ice cream, and my mom offered to get us an ice cream maker for christmas one year, and i thought it would be fun, but he didn't.

unfortunate, indeed

yeah, but now that we're breaking up, i could get an ice cream maker and no longer have to concede to his determinations of what would be fun or not.

doit

prolly get a deal cuzitz outta season, eh

also - fun thing to invite friends over to do - could experiment with liqeur-based flavors as well. Chambord ice cream might be good.

This is really going too far.

I was only able to eat half of my al pastor burrito last night. I only started eating meat again in the past couple years, after having been vegetarian (plus seafood) for a long time, and so I always forget that a burrito with meat in it is more filling than one without meat.

i just got a spam email from "Steve Funyon" - one of my coworkers at a job i used to have had an obsession with Funyons.

I buy a lot of orange juice.

when it is cold, I like to eat soup.

it's cold but i just went to the store and bought a pound of blue corn tortilla chipas and some store-brand salsa (fire-level= hot) and a big thing of peanut butter cup ice cream and some coca-cola and then i came home and ate like three quarters of the bag of chips and half the jar of salsa and a ton of ice cream and now i am sipping on the soda and i don't even feel that gross even though i just got done gorging myself

yesterday i ate some popcorn and some soda and some rigatoni or whatever that stripe-textured tubular pasta is called oh and i also ate some potato chips and some mozzarella cheeze and some lindt's chili dark effin chocolate and some rice vegetables tempeh
