OMG, I'm reading these and I haven't eaten yet. I made a herbal tea for myself and I was supposed to have some pistachios but after reading all these ....I think I need a moment to compose myself, ha ha. I have to do some breathing exercises to get rid of the hunger.

I'll come back and answer later.

Today's All Foodie Questions: (comments, memories or flavor preferences welcome)

Who make the best fried chicken, and what sides do you like?

No answer from me, so enjoy this clip from Green Book:

Spicy, but not overpowering the meat.

Another: I have no clue ..

Who makes French fries so good they don't need ketchup?

The Europeans. They have a method. And ketchup doesn't go with fries - mayo rules!

Depends on the dish. Generally taters are less fatty.

Do you go for onion ring sauce or used ketchup or just have onion rings on their own?

Question about fried food, again...

Spring rolls are my favorite, steamed dumplings, bao buns...

Ketchup should never touch fries or anything else. That said, it's very hard to find decent fries.

I'm going to take the bacon off the sandwich and eat it. Someone else can have the sandwich!

I've never purchased anything at a gas station besides gas. I have no intention of doing so in the future.

I don't eat at movies or concerts. I don't go to games. I don't think I would eat there, either. I haven't been to a fair in ages, but I don't like fair food. I'd rather have a bowl of oatmeal. That I like!

I don't care for clams and dislike oysters.

I had a Monte Cristo sandwich last week. A friend took me out for breakfast. I really don't like most breakfast items, and what I do like most restaurants can't prepare decently. This particular place had a Monte Cristo sandwich on the breakfast menu. I decided to take a chance on it. I'm not a big sandwich fan, but this was the least objectionable item on the menu. The sandwich had real turkey and ham, not lunch meat. It was battered and rolled in corn flakes before being fried. It was the second best Monte Cristo I've ever had.

We know you eat well 99% of the time so let's relax and have some fun with . . .

Today's All Foodie Questions:
(comments, memories or flavor preferences welcome)

Who make the best fried chicken, and what sides do you like?
I haven't had fried chicken in ages, so I don't know. I've tried to make it myself, but it's never as good as the restaurant version. I used to like a chain called Church's. As side dishes, I like coleslaw, biscuits and corn on the cob.
What flavor chicken wings do you like or would you want to try?
I prefer them just plain.
When or where were the best cup cakes you ever had?
They were devil's food with a cream cheese filling. A little mom-and-pop grocery store near where I used to work sold them.
Who makes French fries so good they don't need ketchup?
Anyone who makes them from fresh potatoes.
Are tater tots okay as a substitute for fries?
I know they're terrible for you, but tater tots are nostalgic for me so I have them a lot more often than fries.
Do you go for onion ring sauce or used ketchup or just have onion rings on their own?
Onions don't agree with me, so I'll pass. I didn't know there was such a thing as onion ring sauce.
What are your favorite deli sliced meat sandwiches?
Turkey, roast beef or ham.
Do you ever take the bacon off a sandwich and save it for a pet?
No, because parakeets don't eat bacon.
What foods you don't normally eat might you get at a gas station on a trip (jerky, sunflower seeds, frozen drinks like Slurpee, etc.) ?
Trail mix
What food or drinks have you enjoyed at a ball game or concert (nachos, turkey leg, beer, etc.) ?
I've had hot dogs at the ball park.
Have you tried poutine or would you? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine)
Yes, I would try that.
What have you grabbed off a Chinese buffet (egg rolls, pot stickers, etc.) ?
It's been ages since I've had Chinese food. I like chicken fried rice, family style bean cake, spring rolls and egg flower soup.
Have you had a Monte Cristo sandwich?
Yes, I had one once.
What fair foods did you like (funnel cakes, turkey legs, corn dogs, etc.) ?
Corn dogs, caramel corn, Sno-Cones, cotton candy, lemonade.
What kinds of fritters have you had/do you like (corn, apple, etc.) ?
Fritters aren't a thing where I live. I think I had corn fritters once at a restaurant that specialized in Southern cooking.
Have you tried oysters or clams, and if so, how prepared (steamed, fried, other)?
Yes, I've had them prepared most any way you can think of.

Thanks, bjh. (I think I gained about five lbs. just from answering these questions!)

Who make the best fried chicken, and what sides do you like? I like Popeye's, along with their mashed potatoes and beans and rice. But they've gotten real stingy with the sides.

What flavor chicken wings do you like or would you want to try? Not much for wings but I like Buffalo-flavored.

Today's All Foodie Questions:
(comments, memories or flavor preferences welcome)

Who make the best fried chicken, and what sides do you like?
I make the best fried chicken because I start with fresh chicken, right off the farm. When I eat fried chicken, I don't eat sides.

What flavor chicken wings do you like or would you want to try? No chicken wings for me. YUCK! and Why do they call them wings, when they're not wings?

When or where were the best cup cakes you ever had? A local bakery here, has the best.

Who makes French fries so good they don't need ketchup? I'm not a big French fries fan. People have told me that Thrashers in Rehoboth Beach, DE have the best, and to be sure to douse them with vinegar...no ketchup. I tried them. Nah!

Are tater tots okay as a substitute for fries? Absolutely NOT!

Do you go for onion ring sauce or used ketchup or just have onion rings on their own? Plain onion rings...no ketchup.

What are your favorite deli sliced meat sandwiches? Polish ham, chipped.

Do you ever take the bacon off a sandwich and save it for a pet? No bacon and no pets.

What foods you don't normally eat might you get at a gas station on a trip (jerky, sunflower seeds, frozen drinks like Slurpee, etc.) ? WaWa is our go-to gas station, but it's not ONLY a gas station. They have sandwiches, ice cream, coffee, chips, etc. It's a HUGE business and a favorite in many states.

What food or drinks have you enjoyed at a ball game or concert (nachos, turkey leg, beer, etc.) ? Sugared Pecans at our local concert hall.

Have you tried poutine or would you? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poutine) No and No

What have you grabbed off a Chinese buffet (egg rolls, pot stickers, etc.) ? Chinese buffets are a NO-No for me. I don't like all that food sitting out, all day.

Have you had a Monte Cristo sandwich? No

What fair foods did you like (funnel cakes, turkey legs, corn dogs, etc.) ? Only a funnel cake

What kinds of fritters have you had/do you like (corn, apple, etc.) ? apple fritters

Have you tried oysters or clams, and if so, how prepared (steamed, fried, other)? I tried each of those once....No more for me. I stick to shrimp and fresh fried flounder.
Thanks, BJH
