Shouldn't the late night drunken meal have it's own name? |
|
I mean, "snack" doesn't cut it, and "second dinner" is not so accurate. "Pre-breakfast" perhaps?
Also, I can't decide if I'm a better cook when it's late or perhaps I am an easier audience.
Anyway, I'd love to hear suggestions for late night meal names. Drunch?

1. Taco Bell calls the drunken 3am meal "Fourth Meal" |
|
Taco Bell tastes like fine cuisine when you got a bad case of the beer munchies. When I was a drinker I downed many 6 packs of Taco Bell tacos after 15 beer binges. But I probably would have eaten cardboard if they put some hot sauce on it.

4. When were were in college/early 20s, Mexican food was the 3 am food of choice. |
|
For some reason, nothing tastes better than a burrito when you've been drinking for hours on end.

Which is why I sometimes call it drunkfast.

15. heh, true. Although I'd like to think my late night drunken culinary escapades |

I mean my Dreckfast skills have either improved or I am just easier to please. My favorite is to fry up an egg and cheese sandwich or similar. Last night was sauteed mushrooms, onions, and peppers with fresh oregano and smoked-apple cheddar cheese served on a fresh croissant, and it was damn yummy and every bit worth the wait to get home.
Maybe I should start a TV show called The Drunken Chef or something, although it's probably been done*. It could air after my other show featuring cheap-ass and/or found object DIY home and craft projects that I want to call Martha Skewered.
* by someone other than Julia Childs, I mean
EDIT: damn it, it's been done to death. thanks, google.

Thats a "meal" onboard a Navy ship during a not regular time to eat, usually after midnight. Usually four meals a day onboard, breakfast, lunch, dinner and midrats (midnight rations.) No alcohol involved though.

It's actually an expression that was used in the Merchant Marine for a lunch type meal available late at night, due to the watches (shifts) that Merchant Mariners pull.

Kind of similar to walk of shame. I should ask my husband. I bet he'll come up with something good while he's eating a box of mallowmars and leftover chinese food around midnight on Saturday.

Doesn't matter whether booze or weed is involved, nor does the degree of plasteredness of the muncher. :P :smoke:
