Fried Green Tomatoes

Food, invariably, is a 25 pound weight for me. Not literally, mind you. The side the weight is on, is the side which is more valuable for me. It swings the balance in my favour. Good food, not just food, is the ultimate Eden for me. Well, Eve in all her glory might just be the complete package. Is that expecting too much? Oh, well.

So, as I was saying, parties with great food is what makes the party great for me. The music might be bullshit, the ambience might be terrible, the company might be worse than expected, but the food is what you take home in the end. And it also decides what your plans for the next day are. You get the drift of the joke? No? Ah, forget it. The way to a man’s heart is his stomach. But the way to his stomach is through the mouth, and the taste buds certainly need to be satisfied.

You might wonder what fried green tomatoes has to do with all this. Well, it’s the name of a famous movie as well as a famous dish in the USA. It’s just food, hence the name.

So, we get back to food. I love food, but I’m very particular about it. I tend to fuss a lot, and have my own likes and dislikes. Call me kinky if you want, but I stick to my guns. I totally dislike curd and buttermilk. This tends to surprise people and go all Ooh and Aah. That is because people love all that stuff and cannot imagine people not liking it. Well, for me, it’s disgusting food, and I tend to shudder even at the sight of the semi-solid “thing”.

I love chicken done in any way, and appreciate people who serve a good meal of fried chicken. Fried chicken earns people brownie points from me. I tend not to eat mutton and other animals, but I’m not squeamish about trying anything. I like fish occassionally, prawns and crabs even.

So, I will refrain from writing further, because my thought-processes have collapsed from the strain of over-exertion. Seem to have a case of acute Writer’s Block, and cannot keep hold of my ideas. Apologize for the lack of posts.

Till then, some good blogs for you:
