no mo nablopomo
While reading Popsugar a little bit ago I saw an interesting link that after around 17 click throughs landed me at my final destination: The twenty most horrifyingly bad for you foods that you can eat (and be careful, some of your favorites are probably on here) in America. Or, to paraphrase: The 20 Worst Foods In America.
I don’t know why I read it, except for the shock factor, and also I was positive nothing I eat would be on there, because I’m Healthy and Make Smart Choices! Right? Well, Christ on a cracker, was I ever wrong. Fish Tacos? Chicken Burritos? Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie (the best chain-food dessert ever imagined)? And to top if off, the number one entry is my whole family’s number one? What the hell?! Why?
If I could just pick one thing that was free, in that you could eat it endlessly without any ill-effects, I would without a doubt pick cheese. Not any one cheese, just cheese in general. Besides the awful taste it leaves in your mouth, it is the best.
Here’s a story for you: shortly after John and I first started dating, the girls went to their dad’s for the summer. John and I were both working a swing shift (or opposite shifts…or…something. Not important.) and quick meals were the order of the day. Well. We became addicted to quesadillas, in a bad way. You know those 5 lb blocks of Tillamook Sharp Cheddar? The most fabulous cheese on the planet? We were going through two of those a week. Ten pounds of cheese. Between the two of us. That’s so gross to think about. Yet, tasty, as well.
Anyway, the point of that is I love cheese, and I wish anything that contained it was not included on that stupid list. Which…I really wish I had never read.
Okay this is the last day of November and therefore the last day of Nablopomo and although I loved posting every day (except the three days before I started), I’m glad it’s over, okay bye.
Tschuss!!

Phew, I was afraid to look, but I was good. I am only guilty of #12. Then again, they’ve never witnessed my cooking and my affinity for heavy cream, cheese, and pork fat!

I’m safe. Never ate any of them.
