Re Muffin tops:
I sit corrected. Actually I'm not certain I find that all that apalling either but - not what I was visualizing.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

This is where they lost me - don't want any liver-ish items on my mega-expensive sandwich.
See, here's the problem. Ya gotta stop thinking of it as "liver-ish" and more "the richest most decadent food that goes on toast points."

t Frank started it! Obvious fois gras bashing!

Don't bash your fois gras, just give it to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I hate liver with quite a passion, except when it comes in foie gras form. That's nummy, and I'm craving some now.
I'm anti-muffin top because I'm anti-cinching-to-excess. If you can hide the cinch overflow under your clothing, fine. Or if it's a corset which takes care of the whole deal. Otherwise it looks uncomfortable and messy.

See also salty fish eggs aka caviar. "Rich" and "decadent" don't hold a lot of water with me if it still tastes like liver and/or salty fish eggs. Even if I wasn't footing the bill.

If I only had a brain...
How much do you have to spend on your food before it has a presentation?
I'm saying the spun-sugar PowerPoint slides definitely qualify.

I don't think that foie gras tastes like liver, though. Salty fish eggs are right out, although I like the roe that's often used in sushi--that's tasty and un-over-salted.

To me it still has that tell-tale vaguely metallic taste in there that makes me gag. I don't like seafood at all, but I can deal with the flavor a lot better than with any of the innard type foods.
The only food that pings me worse, no matter how minute a quantity, is broccoli. I can taste broc in just about ANYTHING it's in.

Aw, Frank, we were doing so well on similar food preferences, but if you don't like any seafood and you don't like broccoli, I'm afraid it would never work.
