snacks or other foods you eat, that others find " gross"
I've mixed my CC with mango and cayenne, and honeydew and salt---maybe we're just BFF's that have been separated, because yours doesn't sound gross to me, at all
snacks or other foods you eat, that others find " gross"
Oddly enough, when I mix flavored yogurt, cottage cheese, and grapes as a summer breakfast. Texture thing, I suppose.
Really Dumb Food...!
Last night, I saw a commercial for (I think Kraft) selling a bagged mix of cheese, "seasonings", and breadcrumbs for coating what appeared to be chicken, although I am assuming it could be used to coat anything. That seems a little excessive, and I think not having any control over the "seasoning" would be pretty terrible.
How to eat a cupcake...?
Totally agreed---stump first, with little regard for the crumbs I leave dying and bloodied along the way.
Near Tower Theater, Upper Darby
I think Yang Yang is the dumpling place---and if that's what you mean, it is really, really good!
Why ham on Easter? [split from Home Cooking]
Please, please, please tell me that Autocorrect was responsible for that "ficus on the Jews." Make my Friday.
What non-food/non-traditional food items did you eat as a kid?
Because I swallow gum? That's a better a reason than some I've heard. High five.
What non-food/non-traditional food items did you eat as a kid?
Ha-I do both of those things, too!
What non-food/non-traditional food items did you eat as a kid?
Maybe! I'm also a pen/pencil/straw etc. chewer as an adult, so God knows what my malfunction is. Hahah.
What non-food/non-traditional food items did you eat as a kid?
Yeah, just one kind of wax would have made me a dull girl. Totally agree. I eventually graduated to wax lips and wax soda bottle candy from the Jersey boardwalk. Classy dame.
What non-food/non-traditional food items did you eat as a kid?
Candles, particularly delicious on one's own birthday. Iced, naturally-I'm not some kind of freak.
Trader Joe's soups
Second all of your recommendations, and also like the black bean soup in the box packaging (but not the butternut squash, which I found much too sweet).
Was your mom a timid cook?
Just wanted to let you know that this was super fun to read-your mother sounds awesome.
What Are Your Most and Least Favorite Pasta Shapes?
Absolutely. Growing up in a heavily Italian area, paying a ton for dried pasta that isn't something really special makes me grouchy.

Might this be what you mean?

If so, I believe I've seen it Italian specialty stores in or around Philly, or you could buy online!
What Are Your Most and Least Favorite Pasta Shapes?
Favorites: Gemelli, Orecchiette, and Quadrefiore
Least Favorites: Ditalini and Fettuccine
For me, it is definitely about texture, and also about that texture/shape's ability to convey sauce/seasoning of every kind. I'm a sauce girl.
Valentine's Candy-drugstore variety
LOVE the all-cherry Tootsie Pops, too! I also am a geek for Cinnamon Hearts and for Hershey's (I know, I know, but I'm from PA) chocolate-covered marshmallow hearts.
Walmart Cajun Trail Mix: The New Crack
Seconded for their Indulgent Trail Mix. I'm a sick, sick lady.
What time do you all eat dinner?
Agree that that dinner sounds delicious, but I simply cannot agree that any time spent on Swamp Thing is wasted :)
You're alone in a strange place...
This made me laugh so hard: " I'd assume there'd be multiple Roofie Coladas and a shallow grave at the end of the evening."
It reminded me of a roommate I had in school who, when I said that I'd been asked to go on a blind date with a friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend, said : "This is terrible---this is either going to end in marriage or end with you as the star of a 48 Hours Mystery."
Do you have a favorite I'm-alone-now-so-nobody-will-know favorite dish?
That makes sense, since I seem to like my pasta (in general) a little less cooked than many other people.
Bacon my mail
Oops! Worth it to me (I don't eat bacon, it's for my friends!) but they all raved.
Bacon my mail
Not even a tiny bit of worries.....but this would be the bacon I would choose!

Do you have a favorite I'm-alone-now-so-nobody-will-know favorite dish?
Fully, entirely agreed-I thought I was nuts. I probably still am, since I toss the cheese packet and put tomato sauce on it---but it's harder to get the fun shapes in regular pasta!
Hi, my name is _______ and I'm addicted to ________ .(food only please!)
Also LOL-ed at the pot smoking. I would love, love, love an anecdote about pot smoking and macaroni-and-cheese making. Sincerely.
What's the best thing you've ever received trick-or-treating?
Popcorn "hands" from my old neighbor----take a plastic food service glove (clear, obviously unused), drop a candy corn in each finger as a "fingernail", then stuff the glove with caramel popcorn. Glorious.
Also, because I'm not a huge chocolate person, I got super excited when I got lollipops or Skittles, or anything fruit-flavored.
