I do too. Pork is one meat that completely changes flavor when its overcooked. That's one thing my mother didn't ruin by cooking to death, and I still like it that way.
It's like having chicharrones for dinner.

Oh, my goodness. At the risk of sounding naive, I had no idea you could eat these! I thought they were just for show, like the teeny, tiny, colorful gourds (or whatever they're called) we see around Halloween that people use for cornucopia displays. Now if I find out you can also eat those, I'm gonna have to see myself out!
Can I ask how they taste? Is it closer to a pumpkin or somewhat tasteless like a summer squash?
They are beautiful aren't they and that you can eat them is like eye candy! There are so my different species that I would love to try them all at once to do a taste comparison.
I have only experimented with them in the past year. I've tried Acorn and Delicata (there was another one I tried last year but can't remember the name). I have had pumpkin pie but not just pumpkin - so I can't comment on the difference. If memory serves me correct, I found Delicata to be sweeter than Acorn.
I believe 'winter' squashes tend to be sweeter than 'summer' squashes. Members please chime in if this has not been your experience.
I really wanted greens tonight. So, I made collards and if ever there was a time to do the unthinkable - I did. I over-salted them! Well, I did eat them but not nearly as much as my tastebuds had envisioned. Besides the salt lick I had Buttermilk cornbread and a deli fried chicken breast.
Will be traveling on the road, so I made some sandwiches ahead that are basically filled with roasted vegetables (mushroom, onion, green pepper, yellow squash) and Greek yogurt (instead of mayo) spread on the bun slices. Will be having figs and single serve almond milks with it. The rest of the day on the road will be Cliff bars, banana muffins, and raw carrots, cherry tomatoes, and broccoli to snack on. Will be bringing a cooler for all this.
Going to dinner at a local diner with some friends tonight.
