Foods I don't understand

I just had a black olive. What I don't understand are those green olives with the pimento.

They're my least favorite of the olives. But they're nice to have in a Bloody Mary. Stuff em with blue cheese and you might convince me to have a martini.

I don't understand gefilte fish.

Green olives I do understand.I like black ones too.

I don't understand gefilte fish.

I don't either, with or without horseradish.

Canned black olives are the ones that don't make sense. They're just green olives that are chemically altered to turn black. Taste awful. Green olives with pimiento and practically every other variety of olive in the world are delish.

1. Candy bars (Snickers, Milky Ways, etc)
2. Cupcakes (Twinkies and their ilk)
3. Coke (Really. They poured the syrup onto dough and then deep fried it)

I'm not that worried.

Of course they're terrible for you, but those deep fried candy bars are fucking delicious.

Yet another ridiculous Scottish culinary invention.

Not sure if this is right place to post this but I have a date with a friend from Duke for our 80th and 90th birthdays, well, her birthdays, she's 6 months younger. We we turn 80 it's cigarettes and Boston Cream doughnuts. When we turn 90, it's fried Mars Bars. I can't wait!

I had olive trees in my backyard in California. My kid called the olives "jellybeans."

I thought they tasted nasty.

I used to love olives. Perhaps it's a story I shouldn't share, but I don't love them anymore. The Rathskellar on the lower level of the Brian Center was involved.

Oh, now you MUST share!

I said in another thread that I'm tired, tired, tired. When I'm tired, tired, tired, my spelling sucks and my Southern accent becomes pronounced.

Brian, wilons, a host of others. So, wilson and DD, no correcting my grammar today, please.

I got a salad that had been sitting out just a bit too long, or at least the black olive had. It's one of those sense memory things, the three days of, well, you can guess what it was three days of after eating a very bad black olive. I can't stomach the taste of olives anymore. Pun intended.

Scoot down.

Oops, sorry, hope everything checks out OK!
