i don't like 1139On Wed 14 Dec 2005 08:31:20p, Thus Spake Zarathustra, or was it OmManiPadmeOmelet? If you like a full-flavored, well-balanced curry powder blend, let me suggest Penzey's Sweet Curry...
Are you suggesting that the Navy cooks who were the last people to successfully get me to eat brussel sprouts (as I didn't have a choice in the matter) might have cooked our chow to anything less than perfection? Inconceivable! :p
Very possible, although a certain theme you may have noticed among many members of my list is that I tend to be somewhat sensitive to bitterness. (I'll note that I like coffee as little as I do beer.) I'm sure fresh olives would be better, but I'm skeptical that they'd ever be a food that I'd love.
Which is of course why I've always hated deviled eggs and egg salad. I have some rather unpleasant memories of my childhood from when we'd have egg salad (which the rest of my family loves) for dinner, taking the smallest amount that I could get away with, and having to literally choke down my dinner. The deviled eggs, on the other hand, are kind of amusing. I actually make pretty good deviled eggs, or at least so I've been told. It's always a bit funny when I bring them to a pot luck, where I have to butture everyone that despite the fact that *I* wouldn't dream of eating one, they really should give them a try. :p
