Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just looked up recipes for deviled eggs, and the recipe called for 12 eggs but said the yield was 12 deviled eggs. Wouldn't it be 24 deviled eggs, or are the two halves considered one egg?

My guess is that deviled eggs are so nummy, the recipe assumes that the person making them will end up eating half the deviled eggs before finishing.

Hee. I love the buffistas and how one little comment can cause such an interesting, long discussion.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I just checked the jar of Prego I bought at lunch today and...

No corn syrup.

Actually, for a thing in a jar its not bad at all:

Tomato puree (water, tomato paste), diced tomatoes in tomato juice, sugar, vegetable oil (corn and/or cottonseed and/or canola), salt, onion powder, spices, (basil, oregano, spice), dehydrated garlic, citric acid, dehydrated parsley and flavoring

The good people at Campbells really seem to have controlled themselves on this one. I can live with citric acid as a perservative and the "flavoring" at the end is distressingly ambiguous, but it's the eleventh item so I'm not overly concerned.

There is that. I could show Hubby the recipe and say, "But 12 is all it makes!" and he wouldn't ask where the other 12 had gone. Except Hubby is smart and can add--or, in this case, divide--and would be on to me.

Yeah, I think there was something in those wedding vows about that. Though I don't remember anything specific about deviled eggs.

Well, your wedding vows were made to God, right? Obviously, they don't apply to anything Deviled....
