Word of Warning

[Signe]

I don't understand you people.  Someone takes the time to make an extra special post warning you NOT to eat some horrible peetzzah shit and what is the first thing you do?  You are all insane.

Here's my advice:

Don't drink the bleach that's under the kitchen sink.  It really tastes awful.

[Fabricated]

Wow, I'm almost interested in this pizza now.

Pizza Hut is my favorite pizza place, but I never get to order from there since all the locations are on the other side of town. It's usually just Papa John's (okay) or Dominos (again, okay. Crust tastes like styrofoam though).

Damn you all to hell. I'm craving some Blazin' wings from BW3 now.

In my last job I'd eat out almost every day.   It wasn't too good on the pocketbook (I don't want to think about how much better that money would have been applied towards college), but I became quite the eating out gourmet.    (Amazing I managed to escape with only 220 lbs under my belt.)

I have to say that when I'm looking for hot and spicy, I'd visit the local Samurai Sams and use one of those chinese hot mustard packets on my chicken and steak rice bowl.     Though admittedly it's a little hard to savor how spicy it is when your taste buds and half your face is temporarily paralyzed.

A Baja Fresh Burrito Mexicano Spicey made with hot sauce and with extra hot sauce is pretty good along those lines too.   (They're very dry, so you'll definately want some extra sauce to moisten them up.    The Burrito Ultimos are better for just regular eating, you can eat them without the extra sauce without gagging from lack of moisture.)

That said, haven't tried the Buffalo Chicken at Pizza Hut.   Rarely do have Buffalo Chicken Wings, really.   Too much bone, too little meat for my liking.

Mmmmm Reuben pizza. I think I just broke my appetite thinking about that one. /shudder

See, I've had Reuben pizza, and though it doesn't sound appetizing, it really is pretty good. I'm not sure if I could eat a whole pizza of it, but by the slice, it's pretty damn good.

I know that milk would help ease the spicy, I just didn't expect the shit to be that spicy. I've had buffalo wings that aren't all that spicy, just the slight tickling and warmth you get from well-spiced foods. So I had my normal apple juice (I try to drink mostly juice or juice blends instead of soda nowadays and my prostate thanks me) instead of milk. I should have just not ordered the shit, but we wanted to try it.

I just pretty much don't like any of the pizza places we have down here. Dominos is ok, but only with that thin cracker crust they have. Pizza Hut is always too greasy. Papa John's best quality is that garlic butter dipping sauce you use to flavor the "pizza bones" with. Little Caesar's .... meh.

I so wish I could just order up an Abate's Pizza. If you are ever in New Haven, Connecticut, you must do three things for your tummy. Visit the Long Wharf during the day and get a bazillion hot dogs from a truck vendor named Sweeney. He's there every day and my god, there is no heaven like that of a Sweeney's Hot dog, whatever way you like hot dogs. Secondly, order yourself a pizza of any type from Abate's pizza. They make good classic Italian pizza pie, thin crust, not overloaded with toppings like most delivery franchise pizza. Third, get an appetizer of fried calamari with the pizza.

If I ever find myself in New Haven, CT the first thing I'll do is think to myself:

"What in the holy fuck am I doing in New Haven."

Depending on the medical reasons for switching to juice, you may want to consider getting away from that as well. Fruit juice isn't much better than soda in terms of sugar content. It's somewhat less acidic, thanks to the absence of caffeine. IIRC, soda and coffee have a tendency to cause kidney stones for some folks.

Water and unsweetened iced tea are my main liquid staples nowadays, with the occasional glass of wine, mixed drink, milk, diet soda, or sugar free drink mix (i.e. Kool Aid, Crystal Light).

Bring the noise.

There's a joint near me that makes an awesome taco pizza. It's got  little chunks of chorizo and ground beef with crushed tortilla chips and a mystery taco sauce. After it comes out of the oven they throw lettuce and tomatoe over it.
It's fuggin mint.
I usually chow the whole thing adding some red hot on it and then stay pinned in my easy chair for an hour while it digests.

Dear lord, then you're probably pinned to the john for another hour while it plays the conga on your colon. And anything that has "mystery sauce" and mexican in the same item should be taken seriously. Anything the mexicans consider a mystery can't be healthy.

Can you Fed Ex one to me? That sounds awesome. Taco pizzas done right are da bomb, yo.

Caffeine plays hell with the prostate. Some fruit juices, especially cranberry juice (or a mixed variant thereof) helps with that. After having had a prostate infection many years ago, I can tell you without any hesitation that you do not ever want to have one. Ever. It's just like a kidney infection, except it only hurts men. And it hurts like a motherfucker. When I had it, the doctor told me to lay off caffeinated beverages, especially soda. In the months prior to the infection, I had been doing some stupid things to my body, including average sleep times of about 4 hours a night, as well as sucking down 1-liter bottles of Mountain Dew with every meal except breakfast and many times in between. All that caffeine and sugar kept me awake, zipping like a fucking crank addict and played hell with my waterworks. After that, I swore off soda for like a year and showed a marked improvement.

For those men wishing to avoid prostate problems (and I would if I were you) later in life, heed the juice.

The preceding message gave you entirely too much insight into my pants, but there you go. I suffer for us all.

[WayAbvPar]

I must have caffeine in the morning to prevent myself from going on a shooting spree. However, I balance my caffeine intake with copious amounts of Talking Rain water (at work) or ice water (at home). I have heard horror stories about kidney stones and other <ahem> tract issues, and I want exactly zero part of any of them.

It's a mystery to me but if I paid attention to those spanish classes it might not be. Then again some things are better off left unknown. I can usually walk away from spicy food unscathed. The thing that ruins me is Kentucky Fried Chicken. Eat that for dinner and by 3 in the morning I'm buckled over. My body is so anti KFC it performs a complete system purge usually requiring me to stay within 20 yds of a toilet well into the next day .

I'm about to sit down to 14 episodes of West Wing and a Buffalo Pizza from Pizza Hut. Details later tonight - that is if my ass hasn't melted to the toilet. But I think it's safe to assume Haemish is a pussy.

[schild]

Ok, yea, it's official - Haemish is a big culinary pussy. So if any of us ever meet him we shouldn't take him somewhere that puts pepper on food.

In his defence, The Buffalo Chicken pizza is COVERED IN BUFFALO SAUCE. And I know some people can handle some hots but buffalo sauce does get to them. So there's a chance it was just that. I mean it's oozing off the pizza.

I'm a whore for buffalo sauce. And I like this pizza.

[HaemishM]

Hey I like buffalo sauce on buffalo wings. I likes the hot... you should see the chili I eat. But this shit just tasted nasty, and not at all in the vein of "Things I'd like to eat again."

[geldonyetich]

The possibility strikes me that they might have just screwed up the Buffalo Chicken you ordered that night.    I don't know if they just get the wings out of a package and drop it in a deep-fat frier like a common deli or actually prepare the Buffalo Chicken sauce on location.    If the later possibility, somebody might have mucked up the formula.

[Signe]

The possibility strikes me that they might have just screwed up the Buffalo Chicken you ordered that night.  

Don't do it, Haemish!  It's a trick!  They are all obviously trying to fool you into ordering another.  Nicely set up and well co-ordinated joke... but you are much too clever to fall into that trap... aren't you?

[geldonyetich]

Oh, tricky, Signe's trying to trick Haemish into ordering the Buffalo Chicken by not ordering it.   Subtle, very zen.

[HaemishM]

Don't worry, no amount of tortue, coercion or bribery will get me to eat that filth on crust again.

Ok, maybe bribery. I accept all denominations, but quantity must be large.

[schild]

I donate 10,000 chicken fajitas.

[HaemishM]

Where from are these mysterious chicken fa-jitas that you speak of?

[schild]

Family Guy. It's the most expensive meal I've ever bought.

[Morfiend]

I prefer to squat in a bowl of mint ice cream. Seems to do the trick.

Screw you and your HORRIBLE mential picture.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
