If you can get it try Loch Fyne smoked salmon. A light smoke is my preference.

The smoked haddock and parsley sauce accompanied by buttery champ is comfort food par excellence...promise me you'll try it

O.M.G! that made me belly laugh out loud. The Wuppert jumped off my lap in surprise.

Clotted cream is divine - if a trifle rich and highly calorific - and should be taken with tea and scones - that's scone as in gone not as in own.

speaking of smoked food.....another disgusting holiday dish. people slather them in bbq sauce, wrap them in bacon, put them on top of noodly stuff with cheese like products. ugh

With barbecue sauce, noodles and cheese? For real?

[persiphone]

yes. and the sauces get really elaborate. by elaborate i mean a precise mixing of 47 bottled condiments.


and what the hell is this?




i like the notation "without giblets" on the can. cuz the idea of a whole chicken in a can wasn't disturbing enough.

My mother makes the best jello concoction--red jello, chock full of whole cranberries, pineapple, apples, and walnuts. It's amazing. I've tried to make it a few times, but it won't set up. I don't think she's giving me the full recipe.

My sister-in-law is doing Thanksgiving this year. It's a big undertaking, and I'm appreciative of her efforts. I wish she didn't steam everything, including the turkey. A little spice and salt would go a long way, too. I never thought I'd prefer my mother's overdone bird to a fairly moist one with no flavor.

We live far away from everyone, or we could invite them to the best Thanksgiving meal, ever. It would, however, include the notorious green bean casserole!

I've been on and off collecting myself since beginning this thread. HYSTERICAL.

I totally lost it on the canned cheese and the deviled eggs with miracle whip (my mother to a T)

I think I tasted spam, worse yet...I think I liked it.

back to my brown bag!

[ruffryder]

Ewwww!! some scary stuff. LOL

I don't have any nasty food stories, thank God!! It's all been homemade deliciousness and I've been thankful.

i entered a spam cooking contest once just for kicks and i needed a hammer to get the dang thing out of the can.

If yer eating crap food then do it properly innit.

Spam fritters and chips is how I like my Spam - which I have once every five years or so, just to remind myself why I don't eat it!

Minus the nail. My dad told me to toss it all in the trash and don't breath a word of it to anyone, because it would upset my grandmother too much.

wow, thats gross!
