Quote from a movie:
Moonstruck:
"Do you love him Loretta?"

I also have a theory that everyone has a "Nightmare Dinner" .
This would be a dinner that you would have to pass on, (even the no thank you bites) if a friend offered it to you at their house.
Now, I'm not a fussy person at ALL....but....here's my "Nightmare Dinner":
Snack: Fritos' corn chips. (they smell like cat's feet. Go ahead. Compare.) and Jax
Drink: Cream Soda
Vegetable: Okra
Carb: Grits (they have no flavor and if you have to doctor something in order to eat it, why bother?)
Main dish: Chicken Fricasee and dumplings. (read: slime and rocks)
Dessert: Green tomato mincemeat pie
Candy: Orange circus peanuts
Alcoholic Beverage: Yukon Jack and Southern Comfort. (never, never, never again)
What's YOUR nightmare dinner?
3 comments:
I could quite happily eat your nightmare dinner! Except for the orange circus peanuts which like peeps and twinkies are not real food.
Snack: Pork Rinds--they aren't food either!
Drink: Mountain Dew---any flavor. I'd rather drink sand in a mirage.
Vegetable: Canned peas, tho in a stew they hide convincingly as vegetables.
Carb: greasy limp french fries.
Main dish: liver or any sweetmeats. You aren't getting giblets past these lips.
Dessert: brownie sundaes--too much of everything, lips curling in distaste .
Candy: anything karob masquerading as chocolate. Should be prosecuted as fraud.
Alcoholic Beverage: scotch--cheap or expensive with or without soda, straight up or on the rocks. Nhuh!
Haha, Nightmare Dinner, I LOVE it.....hmmm, let's see:
Snack: mealy old veggies and dip that's been sitting out too long....
Drink: Orange Soda or Mountain Dew
Veggie: Broccoli or Cauliflower (more yuck points if it's been steamed or boiled too long and become mushy)
Carb: Greasy Limp French Fries (good call Dorothy!)or overcooked gummy flavorless rice.
Main: Goulash,Pork Chops,Liver
Dessert:Green Tomato Mincemeat Pie (good call Merlyn!)
Candy: Smarties
Alcoholic Beverage: any beer that tastes like piss or anything super duper sugary sweet...
Hmmmm...with my liking of food, nightmare dinners are hard to come by. lol
Snack: BBQ chips. I am soooo picky about bbq and the chips just gross me out.
Drink: Tomato juice/Vegetable juice. I want to like it. I just don't.
Vegetable: Okra for me too.
Carb: If it has "Cream of..." in front of the carb (wheat, barley, rice, etc) I don't want it and won't eat it. I can't eat oatmeal unless it's super doctored up with things that have flavour. It's either sticky or slimy. Bleh.
Main dish: Boiled chicken and veggies. Cardboard tastes better.
Dessert: plain ole chocolate cake- I'm allergic to chocolate but this is rich and boring to me.
Candy: Butterfingers, toffee, taffy
Alcoholic Beverage: red wine (I know this will get me kicked out of the ladies club but even though I'm allergic to it, I actually have never liked it)
