I never tried Tobasco on eggs until I met my father-in-law. He used to
cover eggs with the stuff.

Heh - when I worked for Texaco in New Orleans I struck up a long time
friendship with one of the engineers I used to work with. A few years
ago, they came up for a ski vacation in New Hampshire and stayed over
here for a couple of days. His wife was from New Hampshire and wnated
to have a real home made fish chowder, so Mrs. Wave cooked one up -
typical New England chowdah.

First thing my friend did was ask for tobasco sauce and used a liberal
portion in his chowder.

Mrs. Wave was ****ed along with his wife - neither one of them talked
to him the entire evening. :)

Speaking of hot, one of the strangest things I ever saw was a Master
Sergeant who used to use two heaping table spoons of cayenne pepper
poweder on everything he ate.

I never figured that one out.

Chowdah needs Tabasco.

Philistine.

What the hell is "authentic" SOS?

The possibility makes me want to puke now.

The S.O.S. with chipped dried beef. The dorm served it at breakfast once
in a while. The guys told me the cook at the dorm made it the proper
way, and it was pretty good. Hell, I'll eat almost anything once. So I
scooped some on my plate, went to our table, took a bite, and felt it
coming right back up. Got to the head and puked out my guts. I have no
idea what there was about it that got me ill in a hurry.

No taste for the good stuff in life I guess. Probably you also do not eat
bisquits and gravy.

I like biscuits, but I don't like the greasy gravy that makes up the
biscuits and gravy dish.

Biscuits have a lot of shortening in them.
Those Browns Chicken biscuits turn into lumps of lard when they cool
off. But they're mighty tasty when warm!
You might switch to muffins if you're concened about too much grease.

I don't eat biscuits very often, but when I do, I like them. It's the
floating liquid fat in biscuit gravy I don't like.

None of that in my wife's pork sausage gravy. Gravy's white, except
for the chunks of sausage. Not to say there's no fat in it.
There's different ways of making it.

Don't eat pork sausage or pork sausage gravy, either. I do eat gravy I
make from a roasted turkey or chicken. Don't eat bacon. Eat lean ham or
pork, though. I try to avoid too many nitrates, and processed meat and
pork usually is loaded with 'em.

I made Bisquick bisquits this morning. did not look or taste fatty. Cooked
up some bacon pieces and used a packaged pepper gravy mix that we like and
had them this morning. B&G are good once in a while. Tasty change from the
healthy oatmeal breakfast.

Most added nitrates / nitrites to pork are very reduced in amount of the
past 10 years. You can even get nitrate free hotdogs and lunchmeat. Funny
thing is Turkey bacon normally has more nitrates than pig bacon.
