And I must say, for a long while I didn't get the tater tot love (I blame the way my mom prepared them when I was a kid - a little too soggy). However, at the fabulous, quirky restaurant lisah took me to when I visited Baltimore they had just AWESOME tots. Now I'm a believer.
And I want tots.
Tots! Gyoza! Steamed dumplings! GREEK SALAD!
CHICKEN AND WAFFLES!!!!!
....sorry. The piehole needs a-fillin'.

Hee, this reminds me of an MST where Joel and bots discussed food that grossed them out and (I think) Servo mentioned biting into a ice-cold tater tot once. Soggy tater tots are seriously gross (I'm not sure if it's worse if it's from oil or from frost prior to cooking - both are teh nast).
Now I want tater tots and a Greek salad. And some tzatziki (see, Sail? salad and yogurt, just for you!)
Your help is duly appreciated. I also notice you are 1800 miles away from me. That's so I am neither tempted to eat the tater tots or to kill you for tempting me in the first place. And Steph, you're not safe either.
That doesn't sound well-rounded. Add some tater tots.

TATER TOTS!!
Every dinner needs a tater
that's why we invented you!
tater tot! Tater tot!

I'm pretty sure Mom's were just the insufficiently unfrozen tots (generally served with fishsticks). If it were grease-soggy I think I'd still be gagging now.
Now, lacking both cool B'more restaurants and a googling-cooking Boy of my own, wonder where there's decent tots to be had in this town.
