So I'm meat and taters with bread, plus beer... (4.00 / 6)

Honestly. I am a Catholic Worker, so that pretty much makes me a freegan.  I only tend to eat free food.  But if it's a spread, meat, taters, and bread are what I'll go for.

Ok, so I'm sure I scored pretty low on your "food chain", but hey, you said be honest, right?

the three types of food (4.00 / 7)

today the three foods that describe me are a slow roasted pork shoulder, an imperial i.p.a., and ranch dressing (specifically  newmans).  Just like my top ten albums ever, the answer to this question changes daily and seasonally.

  1.  i've never seen any of those... how 'bout Chocolat??

  2. mostly c. i grow a lot of what i eat & can or freeze it. i am picky about what i buy. but once or twice a year we go out to eat & i just. don't. ask. where their food comes from.

  3. somewhere between c&d. i wear men's pajama pants a lot. they're comfy & have pockets. they go nicely with tee's & tank tops. but i wear jeans too. levi's red tag.

  4. d. love muenster & brie & roquefort & edam & gouda &......

  5.  b Violin, because I'm cultured then i can play like the gypsys!

  6. c. i guess. the local-ish sushi place & the local greek diner are my favorites.

  7. c. every colour has a place in my world. even dimiscue & plue...or octarene!

  8. a. i'm a leo.

  9. d. Anything that smells like food! underline ANYTHING!

 10. a i guess. but really none of those. i'd rather have you join me for dinner.

A- 1.5
B- 1
C- 3.5
D- 2.5
none of the above- 1.5

food that describes me? chicken soup. lots of diverse bits that make up a pleasing, wholesome conglomeration that gets better with time & additional bits.

Okay... (4.00 / 4)

I'm gonna go with rice, beans and greens.  What other kinds of foods are there?!

;-P

Not sure if I can answer all the questions, but I can try!

1. haven't seen any

2. a, although I wish I could say c!  I'd say my 'junk foods' aren't bad overall, though.  Lots of butter, cheese and potatoes - but from good sources!

3. c, with a baseball hat, too.  Heh...

4. a (X 1000!) - not sure I understand b, though?  I'm a vegetarian...

5. b - I f'ing love violins!  I also used to be pretty handy with a synth keyboard (Alesis QS8), drum machine (Alesis SR-16) and a couple samplers (Akai MPC 2000XL and Yamaha SU700).  Gave up my musician dreams long ago, but I still play around with FruityLoops / FLStudio and other programs on my computer when I get a chance...

6. Not sure which one mine would fit in - local cafe or brewpub.  C, I guess?  Lunch trucks are cool, too...

7. b. Green.

8. d

9. whatever's closest to frying potatoes and garlic.

10. b - she's from around my (old) way. :)

Lunch trucks are the BEST (4.00 / 3)

as long as the people running them are excellent.  There was one near 55th St. & 6th Ave. in NYC that I used to go to...stand in line for, in fact.  Their falafel sandwiches were wonderful.

So one day, I'm standing in line, and apparently one suit is reassuring his friend about eating from food carts.

iirc, he said something like this:

"I remember this guy before he had a double cart.  He always had huge lines.  The food is great."

And of course it was.  Who I miss the most are the women illegally selling homemade tamales near the Port Authority Bus Terminal.  Damn...best tamales I ever ate.  Never worried about food-borne illnesses, either: you knew they were preparing the tamales in their own kitchens, keeping them hot in their own heated containers, and that you were less likely to get, say, salmonella from their illegal food than you were to get it from a "licensed" restaurant.

coming out of lurkdom (4.00 / 6)

for this one. I got 5 As 1 B and 4 Cs. And I have to agree with you on the (red) wine and cheese, but garlic would be my third food. The world would be a dark and dreay place without garlic. Plus I love tomatoes, but I guess that would be four foods so I shouldn't have said so ; )

LOL...about garlic.... (4.00 / 4)

An ex of mine told me that when her mother was late making dinner, she would just saute some onions & garlic to make the house smell like dinner was being prepared....

I mean, she did actually cook dinner (& you can add onions & garlic to almost any main course): the point was to make her husband think that dinner was closer to being done than it actually was.

I still think that is hysterical.  I've never tried doing it, though.

that is a funny idea (4.00 / 3)

I put garlic and onions in almost everything anyway, so it wouldn't be too much subterfuge.
