I found this packet of "Ham Flavor" whilst cleaning my spice cabinet. Although it seems like a great thing to sprinkle on my cornflakes (if I ate cornflakes), the directive "not labeled for individual sale" stirred my rebellious streak. So I am offering up this slightly used packet of Ham Flavor for individual sale. I am starting the bidding at 10,000$. Who is buying?

ReplyDeleteI bet this would make some delicious "hot ham water."

Dear Mr. Dave,
ReplyDeleteI am really digging on your blog. If you are blogging to win the respect and admiration of distant strangers, you can rest this weekend with the assurance of a job well done.
I find myself particularly enjoying posts about truly ridiculous foods. The peanut bread, four loko pickles, and memeloafs are fantastic. The Frankenfridge project, however, is not ridicuouls at all. It's actually pretty cool. What is even remotely ridiculous about curing meat? Nothing. It's the food-equivalent of watching paint dry. Unless, of course, you fail and make a bunch of hanging Chia pets. I think you need to channel your culinary Hunter S. Thompson, huff some four loko pickle-juice, and get F'ing Ric-dic-a-lus.
Some ideas:
How about you put a watermelon into a beef jerky machine and shrink it to the size of a tic-tac?
OR
Get a deep fryer-- holy sh!t, the ridiculous possibilities with a deep fryer are virtually endless. I'm thinking deep fried PB&J poppers, or deep fried frozen cough-syrup Jell-o shots, or deep fried potato slices. Did you see that? I just went so ridiculous, I came full circle to normal again. Wow.
Anyway, keep up the good work, and I hope my message serves to make you hallucinate bats in your kitchen.
Yeah, I have mellowed with age. In fact, I don't even really know why I continue to scribble these posts. I try not to go out of my way too much to do anything specifically for posting about (except my meatloafs). I kind of just try to document crap that I am doing anyhow which can admittedly get very, very boring. Appearances to the contrary, I have actually become a frightfully boring sort of guy.
DeleteIn any event, thank you for the praise. Perhaps I will have to brainstorm a project that will bring me back to my roots. Your comment actually made me wonder why I don't have a deep fryer... I feel like I should have a deep fryer.
I was the recipient of the first McRib from my local McDonalds which I felt was such an honor that I froze it. I don't really eat anything from McDonalds unless it is strange and wonderful. Maybe I will deep fry the McRib or arrange to have it launched into space or something...
How about you deep fry nothing! No deep fryers in this house! I sit back for a lot, but that would be sheer craziness.
