ONLY cheese?

Or vegemite. t grin

Actually, I have no problem with crackers with soup...I'm sure they're very nice, it just doesn't sound like an obvious combination to an Unamerican.

Oh, but here's the really weird one: pancakes with maple syrup and bacon!!!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

But... But... Bacon (or ham for that matter) is wonderful when doused with some maple syrup.

Trudy speaketh the truth. Lots of thing benefit from the addition of maple syrup.

Well, at home I have Camp maple syrup. Is that crappy? I would still buy it just for the name.

I'm sorry, I love pancakes, I love maple syrup and I love bacon, it's just...all three together...shudder.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Good maple syrup is the kind that's actually from maple trees. Unless it says "100% real maple syrup," it's just sugar with artificial maple flavoring.

Yes, it is 100% real maple syrup.

Oh, I eat them all on the same plate, but I try not to have the syrup touch the meat product...(And real maple syrup tastes VERY different from the fake stuff).

We eat bread with soup too. But some soups are good with crackers.

Wait, they SELL coffee milk? Like, premade? That's...really weird. But I'm tempted to try it.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Now I'm wondering if maple trees can even grow in Australia. Could the climate support them?
