mmmmm foood!

To your left you will see what I had for dinner the other night. Mashed potato baked chicken, corn on the cob and garlic mashed potatoes. Absolutely delicious!

To top it off, it was made by yours truly. Sprinkled a little mexican cheese on top for the last ten minutes.

food for thought... or more accurately, thoughts of food pt. II

In the debate of carnivore vs vegetarian I ride the line. If it weren't for the fact that I love a good juicy steak, slow smoked ribs & all the chicken products you can shake a stick at, I would be a vegetarian. I freely admit it with out shame, I am a proud omnivore. With a preference towards poultry as far as meat goes. And bacon, can't forget the bacon.

Anyway, lately I've been visiting some vegetarian & vegan blogs and some of the products made for the non meat eating population are intriguing. Mind blowing even. As a lover of all thing poultry, I can't really imagine a chicken-less nugget, but they make them and apparently they taste like chicken enough that you could sneak them onto a non-vegetarians plate with out a hassle. At least that's what the vegan who ate them and blogged about them claims. Personally, I find a product that looks, smells, tastes, but isn't chicken to be a very scary thing.

As far as I'm concerned I would make a lousy vegetarian. I just like meat far to much to give it up for some pale imitation, so I'll settle for being a meat light omnivore. Now, if the ever come up with a star trek-like protein resequencer, A.K.A. the food replicator, well, I might just go the route of the vegetarian. Although that technology probably wouldn't get me to be a real vegetarian either, what with the whole toilet to table aspect, after all, who knows where the "resequenced protein" is coming from.
