Ture, I feel turely sorry for you :*/(

You should make coffee in secret and store it in a thermos.

I knoooooow right. I will do anything to avoid taking pain meds, and caffeine usually works for that, so I manipulated him into making me coffee around 1:30pm for "health reasons."

He makes it in the French press and it's sooo good. Roles are swapped in our house cause the American makes the tea and the Brit makes the coffee.

Emergency coffee stash, love it. I have an emergency ketchup packet stash in my car

#105

I'm trying to imagine the kind of emergency that would require ketchup...

Maybe if you got fries at a fast food place and forgot to ask for some. Or maybe if you need to stain your clothes for some reason.

#108

Because it's ketchup! That's why!

And you call yourselves Americans. It's like our national condiment.

#109

I'm a firm believer in the NK-17 rule.

What are you dipping your potatoes in or putting on your burgers (besides mustard)?

For fries, I quite like mixing mayonnaise and mustard together. Sometimes mere malt vinegar is a good choice.

Mustard is usually sufficient for the burger, as it allows me to taste the meat, but sometimes barbecue sauce is a nice touch if I am feeling my Texan roots. Buffalo sauce is an alternative option as well, as is bleu cheese dressing, or simple mayonnaise (which I find goes well with everything.)

There is a whole world of sauces out there more interesting than ketchup.

Okay, okay, let's not paint me as some sort of backwards hick who would pour ketchup all over a perfect prime rib or something (if I ate meat). I think you'd be quite pleased with my collection of non-ketchup condiments. I'm a big fan of flavored aiolis for sandwiches and burgers, and I often dip tofu fingers (yeah yeah) into Buffalo or BBQ or fun mustards.

However, there's sometimes when you just need some ketchup. I have this lovely habanero ketchup that's slamming on this spicy sweet potato tater tots I have. Or if I make breakfast potatoes. There's this local place called Evos that has four kinds of flavored ketchup, including cayenne, mesquite, garlic and lemon, yum. Burger 21 has marshmallow ketchup, Thai ketchup and a ginger option.

Ketchup may not be something I always use, but I feel more safe and secure knowing it's around.

I splurged today and got a little piece of Red Leicester cheese at the store. I do love English cheeses so, although I can't hear "Red Leicester" without thinking of Monty Python's Cheese Shop sketch.

Do you like Stilton?

An English pub here is considering adding a Ploughman's to its menu. I am campaigning heavily for them to do so.

#115

I like White Stilton a lot. The only time I had Blue Stilton I thought it was disgusting, but I think I'd like to try it again, as I have had a great deal more cheese since then and I feel my taste buds are more receptive now than they were at the time.

#116

Other English cheeses I enjoy include Double Gloucester, Wensleydale and Sage Derby.

My favorite cheese joke follows, although it really doesn't work unless read out loud with the right inflection.

Q: What kind of cheese do you use to lure a bear out of its cave?
A: Camembert!

It took me several tries, but I got it.

Bear is my spirit animal. Open your jacket if you see one approaching.

#118

yum eggplant parm leftovers

#119

garlic flavoured potato chips

#120

Chipotle burrito. It was my reward for not freaking out when a horrible accident occurred (see the "Random" thread for details).

#121

I just finished a cup of (particularly spicy) shrimp noodles and an apple turnover.

#122

I made a chicken velouté with onions, garlic, and potatoes. It was most satisfying.

French mother sauces are hilarious to me, as a southerner. They sound so fancy, yet we call two of them "gravy."

#123

Tonight, chicken thighs braised in Merlot with brown sugar, paprika, roasted garlic and onions. Served with rice and green beans.

#124

I made two (2) sandwiches.

#125

I just had a Thin Mint Crunch bar, 10/10 would eat again.

Cucumber.

P.S. Putting the numeral in parentheses after a written number is always extremely funny to me. I do it a lot.

#128

I had beans and toast

#129

I had Greek Village salad, some spicy dill pickle chips, half an eclair. YUM.

#130

I had 2 veggie slides and some plain kefir with chia seeds in it.

I do not get the appeal of sliders. It seems like less food but more calories.

#131

I made an omelet with lots of sausage and cheese and it was good. Normally I put in mushrooms but I haven't got any.

#132

Pistachios k

#133

cheese and jalapeno brats with mustard on them.

#134

yogurt with honey

#135

I went out for brunch with my two BFFs and had Eggs Benedict Florentine with homefries.

I'm eating a(n early) birthday brownie with milk.

#139

I should make early birthday coffee (without milk).

#140

How early is it? In other words, when are y'all's birthdays?

#141

In about an hour.

#142

#143

Me and voopy have the same birthday :3

#144

Happy birthday, Twins!

#145

yogurt with honey

When this thread is at the top of the forum with A Person being the last poster, at first glance it looks to me like, "What Are You Eating? A Person" which always makes me double take and laugh. Post in here a lot, A Person

I just finished a double chocolate klondike bar

hmm, "what are you eating? - nutella" seems a bit better

unfortunately I am not eating anything at the moment

#149

I am eating beer. Sam Adams - White Lantern just went down - trying this blackberry witbier before I move onto my red IPA. Then I shall work on cleaning more leftovers out of the fridge.

#150

Pepper and tomato quiche. With mushrooms.
