Hello - I Love Fried Foods


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Just sayin'.

I live in Georgia where I think it is against the law to not have fried food at least 3 times a week. Now fried okra is. Sin before God...I am sure it in the D&C somewhere just can remember where. Or okra of any kind! :)

Our first trip to Utah was to take my daughter (16 years ago) we stopped at a dinner in Provo and my son asked for a fried egg..the waiter had no idea what that was. My wife had to explain that it was an egg over easy with the yoke broken. The waiter then asks, "Where are you guys from" I chimed I with, "The Promised Land". :)

Ah yes, the Promised Land, where arteries harden before you've even heaped your seconds!

 

I've been to Utah, too. (To convert Mormons to the truth, of course!) Those westerners have no idea how to eat. Cream of wheat?! Tastes like soft boiled rubber, if you ask me.

 

You should definitely give the Okra another go, Pa Pa. Once you fry it up, you can hardly taste the stringy gross bits.

How do you feel about steamed broccoli?

Fine, as long as it's fried after having been steamed. ;)

As it turns out, I am partial to steamed broccoli. 

 

I tried it fried once but it was a bit hard on the dentures and left me feeling a mite like a woodchuck, all that gnawing, you know?

 

Maybe if I'd steamed it first as Kenngo suggests, I might have enjoyed it more.

Have you ever tried Cream of Wheat fried? ;)

Personally, I like the fried okra they serve at Cracker Barrel. :P;)

I understand the social hall is not the place for proselyting but I must say that I am fighting a overwhelming urge to cal you to repentance for that horrid suggestion.

Well, heck, if that's the worst thing I've ever done, perhaps I'm closer to being Celestial Material than I thought I was! ;)

You are Mormon, which of course means "damned" but I will be praying for your everlasting soul.

 

 

On account of the okra.

Utah people are funny... when I was a student at BYU, I was going with my roommate to her home in Penn for Christmas Break.  So we were making some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to take on the trip.  (We were catching a ride with several other kids heading east to Ohio and New York. And they would pick us up on the way back to the Y) 

Anyway, a gal (from Vernal, UT) who lived down the hall came in and saw us making sandwiches and when she saw the peanut butter she exclaimed... What are you doing!?  Of course we looked at her blankly and said innocently... Making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches... And she replies... With raw peanut butter?? 

Raw?? we questioned... How do you eat your peanut butter?  She:  Cooked on our eggs!! 

Us in unison: Cooked on your eggs?? Ewww... Why peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are as American as apple pie and cheese.

She:  Apple pie and cheese??!!

 

Rolling our eyes, continue spreading our raw peanut butter...

Fry Sauce is a sin against God. :lol:
