Why do people eat? It has a leeetle bit to do with all the things everyone else talks about, but I don't think so. Mostly, it's self-expression. I'm going with that.
What do I eat? Coffee, espresso and more coffee. Things that make loud sounds when I crush them with my teeth -- tortilla chips, nuts, egg rolls, wasabi peas. Things that are salted -- more chips and nuts, provolone. Things that are hot -- ginger, candied ginger, ginger snaps, curry with lots of ginger, gingeroos (if there were such a thing.) And finally, things that don't try to eat me -- dead meat, arugula, mustard greens, corn, corn products, bananas, sweet potatoes, avocados, peaches, red carrots when I can get them, blood oranges, crusty french bread and chestnuts. Fresh and still planted in the ground -- basil, mint, oregano, thyme, violets, marigolds, nasturtiums, rosemary, tomatoes, rose petals.
I've made a few mistakes with food choices and some have been forced on me. I cannot believe that anyone would ever drink milk of their own free will because it tastes like rotten. Snake meat and chocolate covered insects are preferable to loose eggs, any kind of fish, meat gristle, sushi, creamed anything, wraps, protein shakes, tofu or tabouleh.
Tomorrow -- french toast for dinner.
