Hey Lemons how about some pink fries to go with that pink burger? http://favim.com/image/4268524/

Those look a bit sweet for my French fry tastes, but it did make my mind hop over to a topic that I debate sometimes with Mr. Lemons. With a few exceptions, I don't like to mix sweet with savory/salty. (I know that's not what was going on in your French fry pic, but for some reason it made me think of this.) For example, I don't like fruit glazes on meat, or French fries dipped in milkshakes or chocolate-covered pretzels. Do you have an opinion on that topic, Z? Or anyone else?

I've noticed a bit of a pick-up in activity lately on this board and I think that's fantastic. We've had some cool discussions, OT and on topic, but there is one thing this board still lacks (aside from more posters), that the old board had: arguin'. So I shall make a series of opinionated statements below which I believe to be true. I then invite any of you to argue your opposing position on any of them, although you will be wrong.

1.Quinoa tastes like sweet tree bark and people only eat it because it's considered the cool thing to do.

2.You should not eat hamburgers that are still pink inside unless you like diarrhea and possibly death.

3.Bob Dylan can't sing.

4.You should not come to bed without showering. You'll make your sheets stink.

5.The best kind of French fry is the crinkly kind with no seasoning.

6.Ranch dressing out of a bottle tastes terrible.

Thank you.

1.No reason to insult the taste of tree bark.

2.Sentence is too long; better to have stopped at: "You should not eat hamburgers".

3.Singing is like sex--if you enjoy it, it's good. Think Dylan can sing.

4."Come to bed" implies that there is already someone else in there--if not, showering is optional; sheets are launderable.

5.Yeah! Love those suckers, hot-hot and AS IS. (Where I went to school there was this small, neighborhood cut-by-hand (manual slicer) place --miss it to this day . )

6.Don't blame the bottle--that's some tasting crap--regardless.

Thank you.

FKA, you 'bout made me spit out my drink on several of these! This is the spiciest and funniest I've seen you yet! You have a dry humor I don't think I realized. I hope you'll "argue" with me more often.

The french fry pic is most certainly candy masquerading as french fries. As for the sweet/savory combo I am not opposed once in a while. Fries dipped in milk shake is just a combination of the classic food triangle of fat, sugar, and salt. Just add oil and alcohol and you are all set for a yummy time How do you feel about duck a l'orange, or duck with packet of orange goop ? Or Sheldon's favorite tangerine chicken?

So where do I put the oil?

As for orange glazes on meat, as Darryl Hall once said (perhaps along with poor, nearly invisible John Oates), "I can't go for that, NOOOOO, no can do."

The oil is part of the salad dressing, silly.

Wait, salad dressing mixed with fries and milkshake? Now who's the silly one?

I mean add a salad. For health you know. And a grain or two or just something crunchy for the grooves in your teeth like a Clark Bar.

You might find this interesting, then, oh health conscious one. And Sheldon would like his attire.

Croutons in the salad.

1. Hamburgers need to be COOKED. I once knew a guy who ate RAW hamburger meat out of the package. Haven't seen him in 30+ years. He's probably pushing up daisies.

2. Bob Dylan - great songwriter - his singing grates on me more than someone scratching a blackboard

3. I'm with CalabrianQueen. We shower first thing in the morning. It helps to wake me up. Besides, the bed gets dirty when WE get dirty. We can always launder the sheets.

4. I gave up french fries.

5. Agreed. Bottled Ranch is terrible. Never tasted a good one.

2.Agree and GROSS!
3.Agree 100%
4.I shower twice a day. I like to be lemony fresh at all times. Although I don't actually smell like a lemon. I smell like honeysuckle.
5.Wait, people do that?
6.Glad we agree.

_**I gave up french fries.

Yep. Me at least. I had no choice for health reasons. I can't eat like I'm 20, 30, or even 40 anymore. Last November, faced with serious health issues, I had to make major life changes.

But I have to say, after just 9 months, I've shed dozens and dozens of pounds - and feel better than I have in 30+ years.

But I DO miss French Fries!! LOL
