I think maybe 15% of my posts on the Chicago thread amount to mmmm pastrami
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 18:48 (sixteen years ago) link
er, Morry's
hahahaha but it's so worthy!
I'm going to go get some more food.
― Jordan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link
well, this stuff I'm on is a big ol' appetite killer, so my goal is not to fill my stomach but to maintain nutrients and blood sugar (something I didn't always bother to do even before). I don't mind it at all... usually by this point in the day I've already either considered or followed through with eating a big greasy sandwich and a bag of potato chips. I'll find the middle ground eventually.
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link
Me too! me too! I eat alot...
BREKKIES: Granola cereal w/ milk Daily multivitamin & GABA vitamin (no relation to Ramones, sadly) Water (Lots) Coffee (one cup)
SNACKS: Some cinnamon graham crackers Some saltines
LUNCH: Mache blend with chopped nectarine and balsamic Pretzel nugs Brownie

I want to eat, but I am super fucking busy (taking a quick mental health break to post here!) and I want to get back into the conference room and make sense of this huge file that has been giving me heartburn. Plus I have to leave early to get to the restaurant, so I am already cutting out 1 hour of work, so I dont' want to take the time to go eat.
I guess I'll eat bread at the restaurant....
― Jesse, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 18:57 (sixteen years ago) link
I ate SO many warm buttered rolls when I worked at a steakhouse. It was a social activity among the waitstaff.

jesse, how often are you still working at the restaurant?
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:06 (sixteen years ago) link
I just ate my first tuna-salad sandwich in probably 10 years. It came with a little bag of baby carrots (this was from Cosi). Before that, I had Trader Joe's-brand raisin-bran clusters with soy milk, a few gulps of orange juice, and a multi-vitamin for breakfast, and a mug of Roastaroma tea at work. Some water, too.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:11 (sixteen years ago) link
also, how often are you "working at the restaurant"?
― Jordan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:11 (sixteen years ago) link
(i don't know what that means)
is the tuna sitting alright, jaymc?
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:15 (sixteen years ago) link
10 years is a long time to go without tuna salad. :)
Tuna grosses me out.
I am going to try to make ratatouille tonight, and Nick is scared.
― KitCat, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:15 (sixteen years ago) link
I have never had ratatouille that looks like that. Not that that means anything.
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:17 (sixteen years ago) link
OK so far, Kenan. I'll keep you posted. I've had enough fish in the past 15 months that I'm not too worried. (It did seem like a lot, though! Big ol' scoops of it.)
― jaymc, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:18 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah, tuna is cheap, and americans like the big portions, so most sandwich places I've been to tend to HEAP the tuna on. I would never make a sandwich that big for myself.
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:19 (sixteen years ago) link
all you do is make me hungry, Chicago
― horseshoe, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:20 (sixteen years ago) link
The ratatouille that my dad used to make used those same basic ingredients, but it was all covered in marinara sauce.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:21 (sixteen years ago) link
Well, this one has a tomato paste under the veggies... Maybe I should make extra sauce to throw on top.

Is there eggplant?
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link
Yes indeedly doodly.
― KitCat, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:27 (sixteen years ago) link
I never eat eggplant, and I've definitely never cooked with it. I got a mini size.
xxpost nevermind, just look at the picture, kenan
:)
Properly cooked eggplant is heavenly. Undercooked eggplant is an atrocity. Julia and I had eggplant parm from Rosebud this weekend, and it was grebt.
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:29 (sixteen years ago) link
Two keys to cooking eggplant:
1. Slice it thinly, since it will cook faster that way. 2. Before cooking, salt the slices and cover them with paper towels for a half hour or so.

OMG I just ate 1/4 of a Bosnian pita (cheese) that I got at Devon Market and WHOA was it good. It had everything I wanted at that very minute: grease, cheese, pastry. I ate it in the car like a true glutton. http://www.bosnia.org.uk/outofbosnia/images/jpgs/pita.jpg
Before that I had eaten: cereal coffee fruit bar thingie
I want to eat the whole thing, but it will make my tum hurt from grease/cheese so I am going to have some cantaloupe instead.
The end
― La Lechera, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:44 (sixteen years ago) link
Inside that thing? CHEESE.
― La Lechera, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:46 (sixteen years ago) link
Aw, I didn't actually go get food when I said I would, because I wasn't hungry, and now I am and the cafeteria is closed. :(
That looks delicious.

Okay, I found a bag of microwave popcorn, thus breaking my 3.5 year streak of never eating the office popcorn.
― Jordan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:56 (sixteen years ago) link
I like that we get to take turns making each other hungry.
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:57 (sixteen years ago) link
Just don't get popcorn lung.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:58 (sixteen years ago) link
Isn't the deal with that like that you would have to eat a pound a day for 20 years or some such?
― kenan, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 19:58 (sixteen years ago) link
or work in the factory, obv.

Damn, that pita looks fine.
― KitCat, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 20:00 (sixteen years ago) link
Well, the dude who was diagnosed a couple of weeks ago had also made a habit of regularly inhaling the fake-butter fumes.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 20:01 (sixteen years ago) link
and ate like 3 bags a day??
― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 20:02 (sixteen years ago) link
I gotta tell you: it was great. And there's more left for later! It was warm when I bought it.
I think Devon Market is a field trip-worthy place -- they have crazy liquors from all over the world, like Macedonian brandy and all kinds of stuff. Plus the Bosnian bakery.
Devon Market + Devon Ave + Romanian Kosher sausage store = full day of northside culinary funzone.
