Have you tried Jerky yet? *gag* I tried that for the first time last year when I was in Sam's Club I walked about the store literally gagging... if I had to imagine what a cheap dog chew would taste like that would be it.

nope, these are all things that i must try! i only moved to Virginia about 6 weeks ago but I've been in California for the last 2weeks....heading back to the east coast in just under 3 weeks, my fiancee will be starting her job and I'll be waiting for my EAD, so i guess inbetween the house work and cooking i may get chance to sample some of the fine foods of America.

As for biscuits and gravy - they're ok, it's grits I can't handle.

I am Northern (actually Scottish) and I physically hate them. Even just thinking about them makes me want to be sick. My husband is from the South of England loves them. He only eats them when I am not around. He's trying to get our kids liking them but no joy so far.

Ill post this in the recipe thread too, just in case anyone else doesnt want to pay $2 at staters for a small can of Bachelors (as lovely as they are)..


Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas 1/4 cup heavy cream 1 tablespoon butter 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions
Bring a shallow pot of lightly salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add frozen peas, and cook for 3 minutes, or until tender.

Drain peas, and transfer to a blender or large food processor. Add cream, butter, salt and pepper to peas, and BLITZ until blended, but still thick with small pieces of peas. Adjust seasonings to taste, and serve immediately.

Actually I think it sounds pretty good. It's like the creamed peas & onions my dad used to make for Thanksgiving. Just that in our case the peas weren't blended, but they were in a yummy white cream sauce. Mmmmm.
