33. No fair talking about raw oysters in the summer...
I only eat them December - March (I'm picky about my oysters). I've got a long time to go, so STOP IT!

37. december to March?

39. Well, that's just to avoid the summer months
of June, July, and August. In the days before refrigeration, it was actually dangerous to eat oysters in the summer (non "r" months). However, the warmer water and increased bacteria also impacts the taste, even if they are safe to eat. The best tasting oysters are from the coldest months, so I usually stick to the winter months. When the water starts to warm, I can notice the difference.

18. Sometimes I take cheese (mozzarella/provolone blend)
melt it down with a bit of spaghetti sauce and eat just that. No need to drown your food in cheese when cheese can be food!

16. Not secret, but never posted here until now
Smoked salmon on toast points with capers, followed closely by smoked salmon on a toasted bagel with just a bit of cream cheese, paper-thin onion slices and capers.

Do you see a trend here?

31. Potatoes, in any form. I am powerless over potatoes and firmly
believe that it is a sin to leave them uneaten. I also have an addiction to Vietnamese food and Sushi.

49. hell yes!
I'm not sure it's even possible to make a potato inedible. Burned? I'll eat it. Fried, baked, sauteed, boiled, mashed, diced, sliced, smothered & covered, grated, homefries, hashbrowns, au gratin, twice baked, potato bread..... YUM!

I don't think I have any "secret" food addictions as I am pretty honest about them, and I love all kinds of food. My favorites though are most Asian (especially Thai, Japanese, Indian, and Szechuan), Mexican, Italian, and Ethiopian.

Damn it, I am making myself hungry.
