Breakfast Cereal (Page 2)

You don't like soggy foods but you like grits???

Does not compute.

Chucky, Chucky, Chucky, you really need to get out more:

This is so weird. Not only were Jessica and I talking (this weekend) about Lucky Charms and the importance of a crunchy marshmallow, Jessica said she loves Capt Crunch but it tears up the roof of her mouth! (I don't like CC.)

Polenta is not served runny like grits. It's much firmer and you add parmigiano reggiano cheese to it. Usually served with lunch or dinner, not as a breakfast item (like in the south).

I don't eat grits.

Because dry cereal is ick. There are more than 2 choices - dry or soggy. There's wet and crunchy, too.

I vote wet and crunchy.

As I said, I don't eat grits. I am not a grit connoiseur. I've only seen them on other people's plates and they look unappealing - bland and runny.

I did have a taste of a friend's meal at Mise en Place - what I thought was mashed potatoes turned out to be tarragon white cheddar grits. They were whipped up like mashers, thick and very rich/creamy. I was shocked when the waiter said they were grits.

morey1 - 2005-11-08 2:38 PM Unbeknownst to you, you ACTUALLY like soggy. Dry cereal is ick because it is TOO CRUNCHY. You prefer "wet" because at some molecular level the process of "sog" is taking place, turning the "ick" into soft, mushy, yummy goodness.

That's disgusting.

That's disgusting.

I like mine with sharp cheese, cheedar or aged gouda, or something like that, two eggs over well, cholula hot sauce, a whole tomato sliced up, toasted chibatta,  and a chunk of fresh pineapple

I'm hungry!

Yeah, isn't it weird?

If they start talking about the type cheese or deli meat I bought for the Thursday evening social hour, I'm gonna fall out of my chair.

Dump the leche. It's got to be cold and by the time you've eaten the cereal, the milk is no longer cold.

For all my cereal rules, you'd think I eat alot. I rarely eat cereal. I think I ate some Smart Start about 6 months ago. Once.

And, as mentioned earlier, someone ate all me Lucky Charms this weekend!
