Arby’s serves gyros. A local Greek restaurant serves
breakfast burritos. The gyros are reminiscent of the real thing. Likewise, the
breakfast burritos. Close but no cigar.
Why do people who insist on organic and/or natural food use
margarine? Standard supermarket table
butter contains cream and salt. Period. Pretty natural stuff
I simply do not understand fad diets.
On a related note, what ever happened to moderation? It is
not necessary for people in good health to avoid ALL fats and salt. Let common sense prevail.
Innovation and originality taken to the extreme. I am interested by chefs who combine unlikely ingredients. Are they trying to appeal to the pseudo
hipster? I do like adventure in food,
and certainly would order some of the unusual combinations I’ve seen but…
Here’s my
contribution: Octopus sautéed in
balsamic vinegar with onions, cantaloupe, nutmeg and celery served on a bed of
chocolate sauerkraut. Coming soon to a trendy restaurant near you. If the right
people say they like it, it will spread like wildfire.
Disclaimer: this comes from someone who loves dill pickle
soup and eats cottage cheese with potato chips.
Now I'm hungry.
