You know I couldn't go too long without a food-related posting. Especially with Rachel working around it and the rest of us putting our fair share of it down our pie-holes.
I'll start with the pizza. Not the "Chicago deep-dish" stuff, just the regular pizza. Thin crust to be more specific.
Pizza is round. Yes it is, I'm not going to discuss Little Skeezer's square thing, pizza is round. But for some reason, up here, it's cut in squares. Evidently no one played with that toy as a child there you put the square blocks in the square holes and round blocks in round holes. Think about what happens when you cut a pizza that's ROUND into SQUARES. You're left with tiny freak pieces on the edge.
Hot dogs have vegetables on them. Relish, tomatoes, pickles, peppers...weird. Check it out, Google a "Chicago dog" and feast our eyes on that disaster.
Corn is royalty. It holds a special place in the mid-western heart, second only to soybeans. You don't mess with it while it's growing and you don't shun it in the grocery store. You buy lots of it, eat it, grow it in your front bed (see the Picasa site)...you can't escape it. You must respect it.
Don't worry though...it's not too weird to eat.

Jason, my friend, you crack me up. It's like reading about my own life and you're in my head! Get out!! Fun to catch up with y'all! Give Rachel a shout-out from the Tecs. We're officially settled in VA now...I'm sure there are many blogs waiting to spew forth.
DItto on the wierdo hot dogs! I just couldn't bring myself to break away from the good ol' chili/chese hot dogs we grew up eating in southeast Texas. Would love to read what you would have to say about the Philipino karoake joint I ventured to this week. You would have cried laughing while slurping down noodles.
