No pizza is complete without sausage. Italian sausage = life.

I prefer the pepperoni variety (if bacon isn't available).

That's why they have turkey bacon"

There's even a coconut bacon. Bacon has gone too far."

I've spoken to Tina Louise.

She didn't like me. The feeling was mutual.

*1,206,391 points for anyone who knows what this is."


Can I redeem the points in donuts?

It's honestly really good. Mainly because it tastes nothing like bacon.

Liver sausage doesn't work"


Liver is such a conundrum. Fried liver and onions smell great, but eating is like eating toxic-filtering mush.

Melissa Jensen (kdragon) | 469 comments Today I overheard someone talking about a candy bar made of bacon, chips. and chocolate. Then there are the donut cheeseburgers - cheeseburger patty between two dounts.

I like salt and sweet as much as the next person, but never together. Never, ever, ever together. Ever.

I think cilantro tastes like soap. And it's true, it's genetic. So is loving bacon. (No it's not. I made that up, but I needed a good excuse to love bacon as much as I do.)

Oh, sure. Why not?

I used to make donuts for a living. A coworker of mine and I were, as far as I know, the first to add pumpkin pie spice to donut batter. We added a lot of things, actually, and experimented with banana donuts, peanut butter donuts and several other things until the boss told us to knock it off. Now all the donut shops have flavored donuts.

T.L. Clark (tlcauthor) | 727 comments We authors often seem to revert to talking about food and drink (especially bacon or coffee). Is it because we use so much brain energy? It leads to constant hunger??

Hmmm...bacon wrapped sausages...turkey...stuffing...
It's beginning to smell a lot like Christmas, and my mouth is wateeering...! lalala....

What... Do you lick the bar of soap then lick the cilantro. Yep, can't tell the difference. Does it work the same with scented soaps?

It is - beginning to smell a lot like Christmas - Spiral ham hasn't even hit the oven yet

Perhaps the 1st inklings of Happy Clown take root?

I haven't made banana or apple fritters in ages. Probably very similar and both are oil sponges.

So --- more custard filling, less batter

Sleep deprivation makes for some interesting writing, especially when you've breached the boundaries of stir-crazy

Nearly everything in Happy Clown Burger is based on something that happened to me, something I observed or something someone told me. Yes, this could have been part of the inspiration for Byron's odd experiments with new burgers.


message 67: by Christina (new)

Christina McMullen (cmcmullen) It doesnt quite smell like Christmas yet here, but I like to see the different things people associate with the season. For us, it's tamales. Lots and lots of tamales. And s'mores, but that's a new thing since we just discovered not all marshmallows are those dismal little jet-puffs.

To me and my wife, this is what Christmas smells and tastes like:

Can't. Husband is vegan and I've always been a little creeped out by gelatin anyway.

When I lived in Houston, all the Spanish ladies that worked at the company I worked for would sell tamales to raise money for Christmas, so I associate Christmas with tamales, too! I would buy several dozen every year and loved them.

Christina McMullen (cmcmullen) This year we added breakfast tamales to the mix. It's going to be very hardto go back to my fiber twigs on Monday. :)

This is quite true. There is specific physiological reaction involved. Might have something to do with the sodium-ion channel. But who cares? It's Christmas! I want my hot chocolate!

My sister in law makes home-made tamales that are awesome. Eating them has become are newest holiday tradition.
