Nutella is the food that Americans love to hate. My guess is that it's
because it's European and contains hazelnuts. OTOH, my guess is that kids
like the stuff because of the large amount of sugar it contains and it's
chocolate flavored. The great thing about Nutella is that you can shove the
stuff in the general direction of your little darlings face to get them to
shut the hell up and eat their breakfasts. That is, a very good thing. :)

object to them having it occasionally:))

Nutella is versatile material. You can use it to frost cakes and as a topping on ice cream. The high sugar content keeps your kids in a dazed semi-ecstatic state. I suspect you can also polish your boots with Nutella. It's simply wonderful!

Mr. Killer does not use a broad brush, but an extra wide roller. He has
a narrow view of what is going on and does not want to see anymore than
his view. He gets his jollies getting people upset with his remarks.
Its a hobby for him.

The Swedish government will do it's best to give new citizens a chance for a better life. That's a very friendly and kind thing to do.

Wake up, pal. You have no job.
Anyone anywhere can "almost have a job" with or without any
degrees.

The shape is kind of a dead giveaway - unless they're making real bacon by
extruding it through a press.

They shouldn't sell that stuff as any kind of bacon. It's much better to just call it what it is - chopped and formed turkey semi-meatlike substance strips. I'll bet a nickel that your dog would love it.

I hope Gary doesn't read this. He'll call you a snob.

This is a weekly pointer to the rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion
file. If you do not want to see it every week, you should put the
title, which will not change, into your killfile.
 
The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file is posted monthly to
rec.food.cooking, rec.food.recipes, rec.answers and news.answers. It is
also available as an easy-to-navigate frames version at
 
<http://vsack.homepage.t-online.de/rfc_faq.html>.
 
There is both a link to a no-frames version and a built-in no-frames
content for older or text-only browsers.
 
The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file has two parts. The first
part covers conversion and equivalence. Tables are given for conversion
of oven temperatures, food names, weights and measures. Some useful
substitutions for unavailable ingredients are suggested.
 
The second part is more descriptive. It outlines some of the commonly
discussed topics of rec.food.cooking and explains a number of food
terms. It also lists other food-related newsgroups and mailing lists,
as well as food-related FAQs, recipe archives and other food/cooking
sites.

I can't stand the overcooked green beans.
 
When we make chickan divan, we serve it over broccoli, not with
the broccoli baked in.

I've had both versions (I come from the land of hotdish). The scratch
version isn't all that much better.

I'm not opposed to the squeak, although I usually cook green beans
just past the squeak.
 
The classic casserole uses canned green beans, so it's well past the
squeak.

I've seen bush rats close to death with a respiratory disease. I
forgot the name. I'd never touch those. Bats can carry the lyssavirus
that's hard to catch, but if you do, you die. Don't touch those either
unless you've had the shot. I've seen rabbits with myxomatosis.
 
I don't know if non-city rats are worse than other animals.

If we are still referring to the one let loose in McDonalds ... why all the
panic!! It was a very small one and even if it is carrying something bad,
why couldn't have used the chairs to confine it and allow it to be caught.
I just don't understand it.

I agree. That was hysterical behaviour of city folk. But I thought the
topic had been broadened a bit.

Cold weather seafood. I'm on board with you two.
Cindy only eats oysters raw? Ewwww
I do hope you at least chew the raw ones.
Those oyster eating competitions, they just swallow the
entire animal whole. What a waste of an animals life
just for a game. All you taste is the salty slime.
 
Have you ever had them cooked?
Just one minute cooking does it and improves the
flavor in my worthless personal opinion.
Just steamed in shell is better than raw.
Battered and fried is my favorite.
 
Many people have died from eating raw. Cooking can potentially
save your life. That usually depends on the weather conditions
where oysters are harvested.

I plan to do sky diving myself just as soon as my doctor says I
only have a few months left to live. Go out with a bang. :)

My mother made oyster stew every Christmas Eve. I couldn't gag it
down so I got my oysters raw in a dish with a bit of vinegar and salt
and pepper. That was good. Now I can't seem to eat oysters in any
fashion. I think it is because the only ones out here come in
refrigerated jars. ewwww

Darn place finally opened up here and only about 1.5 miles from
me. I've really wanted to check it out but still haven't gone.
 
1) I rarely go that direction
2) Whenever I do go that way it's always early and
before they ever open.
3) Later in my morning, I won't drive just for restaurant food.
I'll just make something decent at home.
 
Oh well....maybe some day.
