It has been a long time

Soo it has been quite a while since the last time I posted anything on here. Good news, I didn't stop posting because I ran out of food to eat and died.. although I do need to go shopping. I only have half of a banana for breakfast tomorrow, which will not suffice.

Anyways, what triggered my desire to rekindle this awesome food blog was this food review by this awesome kid.

The fila

I had Chickfila for lunch today. Thank goodness I had a gift card.
*side note- the spell check on blogger tried to get me to change Chickfila to "chockfull." lolz
baack to what I was saying.

I love Chickfila. Only on a very rare occasion have I gotten food from the 'fila and not enjoyed every last bite. But it is definitely true that you pay more for quality.

Example time. I received a $20 gift card to both Chickfila and Taco Bell for Christmas. (I'm in college, they were terrific presents)

I have eaten at Taco Bell 6 times, and I still have money left on the gift card.

I have eaten at Chickfila twice, and may or may not have enough for a third meal.

My point in all of this? I'm not sure. I think maybe that Taco Bell is so cheap cause it is not real food?

Pizza Rolls

There are a select few types of food that you can eat and never reach a limit that makes you say "I've had enough." One of these such little miracles is the pizza roll.

Last semester I bought a box of pizza rolls from a discount grocery store (sketchy? yes.). It contained approximately 250 pizza rolls. It probably lasted about 3 nights.

You could have just eaten an entire meal, but if a pizza roll were to be placed in front of you, eat you must. And rightly so.

I think I ate over 20 tonight while watching tv. When I reached down for more and realized my plate was empty, I seriously considered breaking open the bag and making more.. but I didn't feel like burning my tongue again (which is one of the few disadvantages of the pizza roll)

A word of warning regarding the pizza roll. Even if you are confident that they have cooled off to a proper and decent temperature, still wait five more minutes. Or you will. burn your tongue..

Or you could find the wildcard pizza roll that is still completely frozen.

The Cracker

One of the most important food accessories is the cracker. While it can stand on its own, the cracker is also blessed with the ability to make other foods infinitely taste better.

In this instance, I am referring to the Ritz Cracker. While there may be extensive debates regarding which is the best cracker (Triscuit, Saltine, Wheat Thins.. etc), it is my belief that Ritz simple beat all.

Circular in shape, and blessed with crunchy goodness, the Ritz is one of the most versatile crackers known to man. You can eat them with peanut butter, soup, chili,... I was hoping to list more than that.

Example. I had a bowl of Campbell's Chunky Beef Sirloin and Vegetable soup for my 2nd dinner of the night. While a bowl of this particular brand of soup is delicious on its own, my sleeve of Ritz crackers made it so much better.

They also came in handy while I waited for my soup to cool.. after burning my tongue on the first attempt of eating.

Meat & 3

I experienced my first “Meat & Three” diner today in SC. Basically you choose a meat, and 3 veggies, and you get it them all on a plate with a roll or cornbread, southern style. The diner is called Guignard Diner, and is the favorite place for Yankee-great, Bobby Richardson. Wild!



They're Great

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

I like to start my day off with a nice bowl of cereal. I usually go with a cereal that is healthy sounding, like Wheat Chex, Wheaties, Cheerios, Honey Bunches of Oats, or even Grape Nuts. Which all go well with bananas.

But there are times when I like to splurge and get a little crazy. Today I had Frosted Flakes.
These sugary flakes of goodness are one of the best ways to wake up.

Regardless of the weather outside, or how early you wake up, a bowl of Frosted Flakes makes all the troubles in the world go away.

One of the best things about them is the leftover milk. Often times with cereal, the leftover milk is the nastiest part. In fact it is most usually disgusting. The milk from Fruit Loops made me completely hate them. I have not had a bowl since the summer of '98.

With Frosted Flakes, the milk remains its natural color, and is simply made sweeter. Win win.

So, if you are ever tempted to skip breakfast because you are running late, fight that feeling.

And eat Frosted Flakes.. cause they're great.

Ittibitz

Tonight I played Wallyball.

Following all of the physical manly exercise I had worked up quite the appetite for a dessert. I went to Wal-mart and searched the frozen dessert aisle looking for something to quench my sweet cravings.

I found the most awesome thing ever. A dippin dots knock off called "ittibitz."

Cost= $1
Goodness= a lot
