What would you do for a Klondike bar?
I wouldn't lift a finger, seeing as I think they suck. Give me some Ben and Jerry's or a pack of cancer sticks instead. How about you?

10. That's news to me. Like a good snobby liberal, I don't partake in 'common'
ice cream. :D

13. The dutch-made stuff sucks, IMO, but they have ben and jerry's over here
so that's not a problem! They also have some speciality ice cream shops, and some places have italian gelatto in the summer, and that's always good. No 'special' ingredients that i'm aware of, but i'm sure there has to be at least one place in amsterdam that has some sort of pot or hash ice cream.

29. Booze isn't all it's cracked up to be. Once you're of age for a while
you'll realize that. You could always see if the parents will hook you up . . . my mom started giving me wine at the age of 14.

Either Heath or Mint is good. The plain will do, but the others are better.

7. they used to be good but something changed;
I don't know what. the quality of the chocolate or the ice cream or something.

typical of good brands - they sell to someone who takes out the quality and replaces it with something cheap to exploit the brand name until people figure it out.

11. It's like KFC, I remember having it back in the 80's and it was good
now it's disgusting, and i'd rather disembowel myself with a rusty paring knife rather than eat that slop. I was a pretty picky kid as well. I first had caviar at age 5 and loved it, about the same time I thought mcdonalds was crap and never wanted to eat there ever again.

44. for me its burgerking
after going to a burgerking in albuquerque with ample flies and a sick cashier, I can never eat at another burgerking.

KFC, I can actually eat their grilled chicken wrap (mainly because everywhere else is closed when I do)

19. It's easy. Start car, put car into gear, push accelerator, turn wheel ...
stop when at destination. Or you could just go by bike.

34. Whiner. I could store Klondike bars outside right now and only have to
worry about animals getting at them. Heck, I could probably keep them in my back bedroom with no problems.... Brrrrr....

Good every once in a while, when you're in the mood, but you tire of it easily.

31. My mom makes pretty good meatloaf, actually
I only feel like having it every 3 - 6 months. I do almost all of the cooking back at home, so the family is subjected to my culinary whims. I freaked them out the first time I made purple potato salad, it was pretty cool to watch.

36. Nothing wrong with spaghetti
Edited on Tue Jan-04-05 01:37 AM by da_chimperor
but since i'm a food snob, I spend at least 3 to 4 hours making the sauce from scratch. But if it's sauce from a jar . . . then I pray for your stomach. :puke:

40. I've never had it before.
Well I've had california rolls before, but never the real the kind. I always worry that its going to be bad fish and I'm going to get sick. I'm probably just paranoid.

42. That's a start. You should work your way up
Try a roll with smoked salmon, or grilled eel. Then work your way up to raw salmon, octopus, yellow-tail, tuna, etc. The real prize is when you are actually ordering sea urchin roe or salmon roe with a raw quail egg yolk on top. Since your in WA the quality of the fish should be very good, so yes. You are paranoid. :D
