'finger' food for 3 daysView Messages“Oh man, go w/ the KFC bucket. Damn, I love that awful crap. You should have seen me eating it while I was pregnant.” 1:13:24 PM 8/03/02 “just take yer cell phone and have some delivered?” 1:22:10 PM 8/03/02 “LOL..does dominoes deliver to IceWater Spring shelter?” 1:40:52 PM 8/03/02 “They should. The floor area under the skylight is now so large, they sometimes have dances there on Sat. nights.” 1:48:57 PM 8/03/02 “"heh.. well u guyz know me.. I was considering taking a bucket of KFC and just eating that for three days.. :)" TownDawg 10:56:41 AM 08/03/02 better check the thread on Phaedrus' chicken leg experiment before you do!” 2:45:56 PM 8/03/02 Newgirl “You got the KFC bug, I got Taco Hell! Meximelts!” 3:05:55 PM 8/03/02 “wasn't there a discussion about a eatable called "Moose Goo" ? I forget what all went in it but it sounded plausable to me at the time. Also those gels I think are called Gu or possibly Glu but not Goo.” 4:11:34 PM 8/03/02 4:34:42 PM 8/03/02 “Treebait, just say to yourself, "This is what my little darling is craving, I must give it to him/her." I used this rationalization to eat not only KFC by the buckets, but also Pecan Mudslides once a day from Dairy Queen.” 4:58:55 PM 8/03/02 KFC & Dairy Queen? “Okay, Newgirl, I really like you, but right now I hate you! Baume, I was laughing at the Butter Power Bars! I printed your real recipe out. I made the pancakes from your recipe posted months ago and now that is the only kind my daughter eats. The fact that I know what is in the pancakes makes me happy, rather than using a mix.” 7:40:45 PM 8/03/02 “glad the pancakes are working for you. i love them. they will freeze for a month and microwave pretty good also. the recipe above packs about 100 calories per square inch. and they are MUCH cheaper than the commercial ones at the store. you could probably play around with the ingredients (cinnamon, almonds, apples, etc.)to come up with different flavors. you can also use corn syrup instead of maple.” 8:26:12 PM 8/03/02 “You could also try some other grains like barley flakes, Amaranth flakes or add some soy flour, to vary the flavor or the protein values. I could see adding some cloves and ginger too, so I guess you really could play with these like you would with cookie recipes. If you have problems with recipes that don't have eggs, crumbling, add a tiny amount of xanthan gum, like a 1/4 teaspoon.” 8:36:01 PM 8/03/02 “There's a product called Egg Replacer from EnerG that is used in baking that I've used in some recipes with good results. It's a non animal product so it won't replace eggs in the regular way.” 8:52:11 PM 8/03/02 “i miss stated the calories. 25 per square inch would be more like it” 9:06:32 PM 8/03/02 “how come you weenies dun jus eat grubworms? you just turn over a rotten log and bingo-da-bange you gotta gormet meal, & you dun even haveta swallow cuz they crawl right down yer gullet!! city folks........” 9:55:18 PM 8/03/02 3:26:56 PM 8/16/02 “Reminds me of something I read in Four Years Before The Mast. The author was describing the crew of a Russian whaling ship in the 1840's as being "completely happy, as long as they had their bag of lard". Apparently that was the sum total of their diet.” 3:29:26 PM 8/16/02 “Good god, Violin. You are like a kid in a candy store... err... Puke” 3:33:25 PM 8/16/02 “hilariously disgusting! :-) one of my friends told me about how when she went to the fair once, they were selling deep-fried candy bars on a stick. i have to admit, that sounds the teensiest-tiniest bit yummy.” 8:47:50 AM 8/19/02 “HPM's mom used to make him fried bologna sandwiches. I still can't get over that. Then again, my (very strange) dad likes baked bean sandwiches. Go figure.” 8:50:17 AM 8/19/02 “you're surrounded by weird-sandwich-eaters!! ;-) my dad used to eat peanutbutter, banana, and mayonnaise sandwiches. the very thought makes me wince.” 8:52:49 AM 8/19/02 “Well, mayonnaise on that does sound pretty gross. But a peanut-butter-banana sandwich is gooooooood. Wanna make it better? Fry it.” 8:54:28 AM 8/19/02 “Try it, you might like it. It's kinda cool to see bologna in a frypan, the center domes up cause of heated air getting trapped under it. Funky.” 9:00:16 AM 8/19/02 “You gotta get that unsliced bologna in a stick and fry that up. Slice it a half an inch thick, fry it, them cut it into quarters and put on a biscuit. The only thing better than that on a biscuit is sorghum.” 9:02:35 AM 8/19/02 “funky? yeah, something like that, LOL! i'll have to take your word that it's yummy, as it may well be. i don't eat meat though...do they make tofu bologna? ;-) yeah, i don't mind PB & banana, bitpusher...i just think mayonnaise is extremely gag-inducing under normal circumstances, and putting it together with the other two things is a far cry from normal. tehe!” 9:03:29 AM 8/19/02 “That's okay bologna isn't really meat, it's all the leftover stuff, and usually a lot of cereal filler. You can eat it knowing that only a really small part of the pig died to give you pleasure. Never mind what part....” 9:07:16 AM 8/19/02 “See? It's practicly vegetarian!” 9:10:15 AM 8/19/02 “LOL, bitpusher! i see, sort of like hotdogs. i have a theory that every processed-meat product is really exactly the same thing, only in different shapes. one of my friend Lauren's specialty dishes is hotdog-fried-rice. HA!! she's the one who eats lard by the spoonful, too...” 9:28:44 AM 8/19/02 “After I had my blood lipids measured, my doctor me that unless I switched to an all-lard diet, I didn't have anything to worry about. Apparently my cholesterol and triglyceride levels are quite low. Hope Lauren's are too....” 9:44:26 AM 8/19/02 “i don't know if she's ever had them tested, but she weighs like 110 pounds soaking-wet, and is about 5' 7". i understand that you can be tiny, though, and still have bad cholesterol...” 9:52:28 AM 8/19/02 “Oh sure. But for most people, your liver makes most of the cholesterol in your body. Very few people actually get any of their serum cholesterol from their diet. But if you're one of those unlucky few, you have to be really careful.” 9:55:07 AM 8/19/02 I'm not going back to read the whole thread... “but a delicacy in my family is pnut butter, mayo, and bacon sandwich... when I make it now I ditch the mayo and use turkey bacon.... good stuff maynard” 5:15:54 PM 8/19/02 “sugar sandwich. on white” 6:45:38 PM 8/19/02 “lets see finger food for 3 days........that's like 3.33 fingers per day! unless you get extra fingers from someone else........hey father g, you gonna eat all those fingers? i was always partial to a big ole spoon of miracle whip, MMMMMM! or how bout grape jelly on fried eggs!?!?!? or fried eggs on cinnomin toast?!?!?!? OMG! I'M GETTIN HUNGRY! ! ! !” 7:05:38 PM 8/19/02 “GEEZ, I'm and starving! I need to find food!” 8:04:01 PM 8/19/02 “Why not some Taboulé (Lebanese couscous salad)? Just put a portion of couscous, dried tomatoes, dried wine leaves, dried parsley, dried onion/garlic in a ziploc baggy. Rehydrate about an hour before lunch, maybe add some chili and olive oil. It's both light and filling.” 4:18:10 AM 8/20/02 “I just read in Newsweek that the military came out with what they call a Combat sandwich. It's a sandwich that remains edible for 3 years.” 6:35:08 AM 8/20/02 “I'd like to order a three year sandwich, please. Ah, TO GO!” 6:42:14 AM 8/20/02 “lol ada” 7:12:45 AM 8/20/02 “I can see it is a big hit already. Every hiker should get in line before they sell out.” 7:17:41 AM 8/20/02 “That must be a really big sandwich if it will last for three years.” 8:04:50 AM 8/20/02 “It's only for REALLY small people” 8:17:12 AM 8/20/02 10:02:44 AM 8/20/02 11:23:29 PM 5/01/06 “They say the hardest part of making "finger sandwiches" is getting that third knuckle right.” 9:40:01 AM 5/02/06 Three Days... “divided by 10 fingers, equals 3.33 fingers per day. I recommend advance preperation and storage in foil, as opening baggies to get to the third days food might prove challenging to those without fingers... UNLESS... ya eat your HIKING PARTNERS fingers..... THEN, ya have a three day supply you can take with you!” 10:02:45 AM 5/02/06 “Yeah but if they ran out of TP (other thread) do you REALLY want to consider it?” 12:42:50 PM 5/02/06 Just Remember... “fresh foods usually require a thourough washing to be safe, pesticides and all sorts of other chemicals are used in the growing of foods....wash the fingers before preparing them for ingestion.” 1:10:32 PM 5/02/06
