single foods forever

[swampdragon]

At dinner we were eating indian curry cauliflower and last week we had it with potatoes and all of us thought - potatoes are way better - so it lead to a couple of questions about single food

A - if you could only have one type of prepared potatoes, what would it be?
B - only one vegetable?
C - only one fruit?
D - only one dessert?


after much debate

A - pretty thin french fries
B - broccoli
C - oranges
D - macadamia nut banana cream pie

anyone else want to play

i don't know why i hate dislike white vegetables. cauliflower should be outlawed. water chestnuts freak me out and have to pick them out. don't like nuts in deserts either. ditto for orange vegetables like squash and turnips. i like green vegetables. i don't think it's as much about taste as it's that you're body will instinctively chose what it needs. although it can be fooled by artificial stuff. it probably has something to do with the differences in everyone's microbial biodome. i bet if you compared peoples similar and different food preferences and their gut microbes you'd find a correspondence.

a: mashed potatoes
b: broccoli
c: cantaloupe
d: ice cream

uh my keyboard keeps printing the number 9 sometimes. i don't know why. it's not a stuck key.

A - french fries
B - if we are counting tomatoes as veggies, I'd say them, cuz I eat tons of pasta and other sauces with tomatoes as essential; if you wanna call them a fruit, I'd go with peppers--this is a cheat, because I'm hoping I can have all types; between sweet bells and all the chilies, I'd have lots of flavor options
C - tomatoes, if I can't count them as a veggie; apples otherwise
D - tough--I have a sweet tooth. I'm tempted by the more exotic choices that I love but rarely eat (like hummingbird cake--sooo good), but if I have to pick one to eat again and again, I'd probably stick with a chocolate chip cookies.

onions are like bacon, you can put them in anything and it will taste better.

My daughter is learning to "cook" a few things while she has all this time at home (she is currently making some kind of jello dessert)

Now I'm completely plwoed at the moment as a reuslt of my neighbor comign back from Japan tonight and giving me a dammed waterlglass of %&^&$*%^( aprciot soju to drink without tellign me that the %&^* is 180 proof, so my frame of mnid mitght be a bit off-- nobody should be thid drunk off of somethinf that tastes like aprico9ts... but waht do odds means whenh you can';t figure out the qusetion. We don';t undrerstand the universe, so putting odds onn things that occur within it is what....? Stupid. Just not a good idea, it isn';t. Dumb and bad too do whath you don't knoww about. Silly, like not smart from sdmart enough people.
