It's not a sandwich to me, in the sense that I couldn't hold it to eat -- I've have to use a knife and fork.

I don't really see the issue with the cheesecake pancake thing--how is it SOO different from a cheese danish?!?! Cheesecake and the "cheese" in a danish are...not that different. And it's a "layer" of cheesecake, not like they're sticking a whole slice in there or what.

And doesn't a freakin' burrito from Baja Fresh or Chipotle have 1200 calories if you put most things in it? I used to get those all the time...but it'd be my main meal for the day (and a lot of times I only eat two meals a day if I'm working from home--late breakfast, and even later lunch, and no dinner. Or early dinner and no lunch. Or no breakfast, lunch, and dinner)

I think the Double Down is kind of...vulgar, but I don't know why, I love all that stuff. I'm not going to lie about it, especially since I used to like that thing with the corn and potatoes and chicken that quite frankly tasted better if you didn't look at it too much. I love the apologetic pothole commercial.

I have coffee. Yay for having my own coffeemaker here at work. Mmm. Coffee.

Now I'm thinking about the leftover pasta I'm going to have for dinner (tomato-cream sauce with shrimp) and wondering if heating it up in the microwave will ruin it.

Man, I wish I lived near you so I could find out for you. That dish looked amazing and I think I might have to make it soooooon.

It was pretty good, I tell you what. I decided to go for the oven, since I'm hungry already and this will make me wait to eat it.

It's not the calories or nutrition or whatever that bother me. It just sounds and looks yucky. And if I find the promotional pic a bit stomach-turning, I imagine the reality would be even less pleasant.

Yeah, that's my reaction to most of the "CAN YOU BELIEVE WE COMBINED THESE THINGS?? COME EAT OUR OUTRAGEOUS COMBINED JUNK FOOD ITEM!!" fast foods out there. The amount of sugar in that IHOP thing is making my teeth hurt just thinking about it.

On the topic of raising chickens instead of a chicken coop that has limited access to the outdoors, they are converting old school buses by removing the seats and putting in laying beds (or whatever it is chickens like). They move the buses from pasture to pasture, letting the chickens roam around before ushering them back on the bus.

This is too cute!!

HOORAY FOOD!

Sure beats beer.

Well, I don't know about that.

Now I'm thinking about the leftover pasta I'm going to have for dinner (tomato-cream sauce with shrimp) and wondering if heating it up in the microwave will ruin it.

I suggest taking the shrimp out before you heat it up, then once the pasta gets hot, stir the shrimp back in and let the heat of the pasta warm the shrimp through. If you heat it all together, the shrimp will get overcooked.

Yeah, too late, but that would have been a better idea. Ah well.

I fail to understand Cheeto regret.

It's the cheese product afterburn that lingers in my mouth. I also feel like I can taste Cool Ranch Dorito residue for days.
