Fried taters.

All breads
All potatoes
All pasta

Is choosing a type really necessary?

It's gonna be a pretty short thread if we don't.

How about jalapeno cheese bread?

Never heard of this before but I would try it. Do you have a restaurant or bakery that serves it?

A bit out of my way but if I must!

I picked up a loaf once and as I was going through airport security, the TSA agent sees it on the X-ray and exclaims, "is that jalapeno bread from goode company?!?!"

I thought she was going to confiscate it.

Tater. Fixed any way.

Cannot live without taters.

Breads are a close second.

A fried tater sandwich on white bread with cheese and bacon. Try it.

I guess you proved that it isn't possible...

Pasta, rigatoni or gemelli to be exact. Followed by bread. Good NY Italian bread.

Do I really have to answer?

Nothing can beat pasta when it comes to versatility. The type of pasta is totally dependent on what's going over it or mixed with it. Some sauces, like a tomato-meat sauce can go with pretty much all pasta, while others like clam sauce really need a long thin pasta like linguine. Left to my own devices, I'd eat it every day; my Dr. on the other hand is discouraging this. (I'm convinced he's lurker here - he's a UF grad - and is jealous of the fabulous pasta dishes I've prepared and posted pics of and so he made up some nonsense about my blood sugar being high.)

You knew about the blood sugar? Or just assumed?

She knew. My guess is this lurking doctor on here is funneling the info to her. I’ve seen it a million times.

Please don’t over-do it on the Botox and lip fillers. I know it’s all the rage but be conservative.


We are trying to perfect our fries. We are close but I want to try adding some baking soda to make them extra crispy. The Amazon potato slicer was an excellent investment, btw. We use an air fryer to cook.

Does popcorn count?
