Hmmm? Nothing. Nevermind. See, that's why I never post things like that...

I thought it was a bit fucking rude actually

Hmmm. I like random threads like this. Let me think.

Hmmmm.

OK. I've got these cans of fish fillets hangin out in my cupboard. I did not buy them. Who gave them to me? I like anchovies, but I have no idea exactly from what kind of "fish" these canned fillets were derived; it doesn't say on the label.

I think they allow companies to label things generically like "fish fillets" and don't require them to declare the specific species of "fish" that they put in the can. WTF would I be eating? Pollock? Mullet? Poagies?

I bet, however, If I have a power outage because of an ice storm like I did back in 2000, those "fish" fillets will taste great under candlelight. Ymmmmmm. "Packed In Oil"

What kind of oil!!!!!!!

I don't think food can become mysterious here... I eat whatever I buy without leaving around too long...

Pangloss62 11-12-2006 10:42 PM

Oh crap...
 
I just remembered from where those cans of fish came; my dead former girlfriend, Kelley...now I'm a bit sad....

She knew I liked anchovies, so I think she bought a bunch of canned fish at the dollar-everything store....Nice girl. We gave everybody we knew gifts from the dollar-everything store; I just forgot about those cans she bought for me.

She was going to be a marine biologist.

There is a stained glass window in Kelley's honor at the William & Mary Marine Biology School in VA. She was one of the best.

And don't you guys freak out that I say this...death is part of life.

lol...see, when I read Flints "because, shut your face", I read it like he has no fucken idea why his wife doesnt use pasta and it would of been like..."err, umm, 'coz"

But maybe I am just in a "look for the good" mood, and Flint was really being a big meanie, but he is usually being funny :D

DucksNuts 11-12-2006 10:50 PM

Oh and thanks Ali, I might try that sago stuff...dunno about the polenta.

I did make some and mix cheese n shit through it *al la jamie oliver* and it was sooo bad.


(no no, figuratively *shit* not reaaaal shit)

Aliantha 11-12-2006 11:16 PM

lol...well whichever way, people need to be more explicit with a simpleton like me. ;)

When it all comes down to it, if you don't like it, don't eat it. :)

Pango...I saw your post yesterday but wasn't sure what to say so opted for nothing. I was touched by your post though...sometimes memories can be so bittersweet.

I've got 6 bottles of clam juice in my pantry. They don't expire for another year or so.

That is very poignant and sad. They made a stained glass window for her?

I've had a bag of cheap, horrible-tasting 'gingerbread' cookies in my pantry for a month or so. I know how they got there, I just can't figure out why they're still there. I am now inspired to throw them out as soon as I get home.

wolf 11-13-2006 09:01 PM

I don't think I have an entry for this thread. I know how and why cans of Underwood Devilled Ham are in my cupboard.

That, and roaches, will be the only things that survive a nuclear attack.
