Ten Years Later


I heard last week that "Jerod" from Subway sandwiches has been going on about that sandwich diet for ten years now. That is a shit-load of "sweet onion teriyaki sauce" for anyone to have to eat. He still travels around the country (world?) showing all the folks his giant pants he used to wear, before he sold his soul for the six inch combo.
I don't know how he did it, but I have an idea. I hate Subway. I will eat it if I'm dragged in one, but I NEVER just go in one on my own. The entire joint smells like the sandwich. Or does the sandwich smell like the place? Its a bit of a "chicken or egg" riddle to me. Either way, they suck. My point is, if you knew you could be taken care of just by eating only one type of food, how could you NOT lose weight? And if, say, that food sucked, well then, your success is guaranteed! I like Jerod though. He lost all that weight, and never let it go to his head. He is still just as big a pud as he ever was, although, in his "fat pictures" he seems to look just a little cooler?

"Hearty" never is.


Just a quick thought- I was in the grocery store last night, and I noticed something. I will go as far as saying that nearly everything in the store that is described by the maker as "hearty" is most likely bad for your heart. And pretty much anything you could make on your own that could be called "hearty" is also clogging your arteries. Just seems a tad ironic to me. Also, anything that Paula Dean cooks, or suggests cooking, is hearty, and therefore killing anyone who eats it. I'm not saying its not the absolute best food, I'm just saying that, if you are trying to lower your cholesterol or lose weight, you don't have to flip the can over to look at the calories or fat. Just look on the label for the word "hearty" and if you see it, put the can down. In the words of Forest Gump, "That's all I have to say about that"

Launching the Fleet


I think tonight, I'm going to launch the fleet. That's when you go buy a shit load of cocktail wienies, and a can of pop-up biscuits. I like to use "Little Smokies" all beef wienies. I have found that brand of can biscuits does not really matter much. They are all pretty much the same. Anyway, you just pull a little piece of the biscuit of the roll, about the size of a half dollar, and roll the wienie in it. There are enough little sausages in one pack, and enough biscuit in one can, to create a fleet you can go to war with. Use it all up. Get yourself a bottle of Texas Pete honey mustard to dip them in. Its not my favorite mustard, but on these, it is the best for some reason. Arrange the pigs-in-blankets in fighter formation across the pan like planes on a carrier deck in the oven.
Just set it to 350 and pull them out when they start to brown a bit. Pour a little mustard on your plate, and get to it. See how many you can eat, then try to eat more than that. Awesome.

Cha Cha Cha Changes!



Weired. I have not eaten sweets for my entire life. Not candy really, and certainly not cake, cookies, etc. Now, all of a sudden, I have a real interest in anything to do with a dessert. I cant get enough of the crap. My Doctor said that I do not have the "sugar" as my Grandmother would say, which is diabetes. So, I can not figure it out. Oh well, I am now going in the kitchen to grab a Little Debbie cake. Y'all let me know if this happened to you, or someone you know. Yesterday I sprayed chocolate whip cream on a cup of coffee.
