What I'm TRYING to Have for Dinner

This morning, breakfast will be entitled “Glop from Outer Space 25”. It will combine the culinary assassins of Rice-a-Roni and macaroni and orange # 20. For dinner this evening, left over “Glop from Outer Space 25”.

Man, I got it good…

“If I had a Million Dollars…” :laughing:

Love Dixie!

The food is only part of it, Son!

In this situation, cutting out red meat isn’t going to help.

:laughing:

…and probably the reason we’re all still here.

BTW, I liked your PS avatar better.

Too true, but it does make it easier for me to delude myself into thinking that it will. :smiley:

Just for the record, my cat just ate a stray radish leaf off of the kitchen floor. She goes after bits of onion skin, too. Yes, I feed her quite well. She’s just a bit…weird.

Every time I eat an orange, though, she’ll sit there and look at me with this “I don’t know how you can defile yourself with such garbage” look.

mmmmm

Sounds delicious, but it’s too much cholesterol for me! I have to cut back on pig :swear: , fried stuff :swear: and shellfish :swear: :swear: :swear: Maybe I can figure out a substitute using olive oil.

You could use olive oil and less pork, but then it would taste like chick food.

Can’t you season shrimp without a kitty?

I absolutely love smoked grilled salmon (with some hickory chips for smoke), but I leave out the dill.

A hunk of that and some slaw with a slice or two of my faux sourdough french bread, toasted dry and scrubbed with a clove of garlic, then painted with olive oil, and a glass of nice wine, that can’t be beat!

That’s the price I have to pay for reaching my antique age… I want more!

Or the price you pay for living in a medical maelstrom - supported by cereal grain and vegetable oil lobbyists + the FDA - that asserts the questionable idea that blood cholesterol is directly linked to dietary cholesterol.

I know several people who have ignored dietary cholesterol and instead switched to zero (or very light) carbohydrate and hydrogenated vegetable fat diets, and their blood cholesterol plummeted.

I want more age too. :smiley:

Well, I have heard that you are what you eat. :laughing:

Actually, I use quite a bit of extra virgin olive oil in my cooking. I had been experimenting with some new receipes that I was working to adapt to mine and a friend of mine’s (he has diabetes and I had to use insulin for around 9 months) tasts, then I started paying a lot more attention to my diet. Luckily, I am an omnivore and love to eat almost anything (no dill, caraway seeds or celery, please). The hardest was to cut back on pig (and of course, ice cream) as that is my favorite meat. I do splurge on bacon and eggs for breakfast every month or two.

It’s weird how I have low blood pressure (normally around 90/60) and high cholesterol.

Nah… those high cholesterol beef cattle just got that way from eating too much pork.
