What is your favorite food?

This should be a very easy one since I believe all of us eat. We all have something favorite that we enjoy eating.

I don't really care for anything all that special. I previously mentioned that I love spam sandwiches. I also like pizza, hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, ice cream, pie, cake, cheez-it and lasagna.

My absolute favorite is the good old hamburger. It can be a hamburger, cheeseburger or hamburger with various things added. But I really love hamburgers. I especially love large hamburgers.

I couldn't eat either of the two following hamburgers by myself at one time since one is 31 pounds and the other is 50 pounds.

How about you? What is your favorite food?

Hey everyone. Don't know why I couldn't answer this yesterday. Must have had brain freeze

. My favorite actor has to be Johnny Depp. The man can do anything. This clip is a good one...enjoy.

I hope all of you are enjoying this thread and that you will be telling others about it as well as letting some people know about 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums. This has now become the longest thread in the history of 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums.

Any of you care to tell about your favorite food?

Here is another video about large hamburgers. In this one a guy drives about 4 hours to go to a place that sells 15 pound hamburgers.

My favorite food is pretty simple - Peanut Butter

Larwee · Aug 17, 2007

Julia, that reminds me that I also love peanut butter. There are times when I will eat nothing but peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for a couple of days. That happens about 4 times a year. I also love peanut butter and preserves sandwiches.

Sometimes I will buy regular peanut butter from a supermarket. But there are a couple of natural food stores I sometimes go to that make the peanut butter right there in the store with nothing added to the peanut butter. That is some good peanut butter.

Yesterday was the 30th anniversary of the death of Elvis Presley and that helped to remind me that possibly his favorite food was fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches. There are some famous stories about him and his love for fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches.

These two videos have a little humor in them. The first is about how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The second is how to make a peanut butter and banana sandwich, which is a little different and a lot easier to make than the fried peanut butter and banana sandwich. Obviously that isn't really Julia Child in the second video; however a child is in it.

Where else can you have this much fun?

In an effort to please, I have come as close as possible to making it possible for you to see the famous fried peanut butter and banana sandwich that Elvis Presley loved so much.

This video features an Elvis impersonator actually making a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich and giving instructions.

You might want to try this if you never have.

I like pretty much everything. One of my favs is Rib Eye Steak on the Grill.
My way - not from a restaurant. And I only use Charcoal - not gas and lots of hickory chips!
Smokey, yummy! Man I cook a mean steak! Making your mouth water???

One of my worst habits is munching at night - I don't snack during the day at all. But I get these food addictions where I just have to have certain foods at night before I go to bed. I don't let myself buy junk food any more, so at least I'm not sitting around eating potato chips, which I love.

Recently I'm hooked on nectarines - I HAVE TO HAVE 2 every night.
So at least this time it's a healthy addiction.

maxie104 · Aug 17, 2007

They say confession is good for the soul. I.... have a habbit. I could eat pizza 24/7.

purplebear · Aug 17, 2007

oooh I'm havin a tough time keepin up. lol
Taters are definitely my weakness. lol Never met a tater I didn't like. lol Guess a baked tater's probably my favorite. Love sherbert (the tropical flavors and sorbet (especially boysenberry)

oooh Linda can I come for dinner? lol Only a charcoaler too. We're a dyin breed where I live. Everybody's got the gas ones. uhh not to start any debate here lol but uhhh doesn't taste barbecued unless it's been made with charcoal. Needs to have the charcoal flavor lol Now, I'm sure a bunch of gassies will weigh in here now. lol

Just my opinion only.

ummm a nice rib eye steak and a baked tater on the grill sounds awfully yummmmmy or a hamburger Larwee.

Love anything pineapple, too. Have a recipe for pineapple muffins that are really yummy. Love angel food cake oooooooh and I really love New York style cheesecake. hmmm I'm starting to get hungry now. Got a yummy recipe for that, too. Maraschino cherries, too.....oooh really hungry.

ps Julia - I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch today... I like the crunchy kind with the little pieces of nuts in it and of course have to take a little taste before closing the lid with a knife.

Larwee · Aug 17, 2007

This is for you if you love potato chips like Linda does.

I also love potato chips and often snack on them.

Here are a couple of videos that are interesting. The first contains a little humor and the second is educational.

The first one involves a lady who collects potato chips that have unsual shapes. They might be shaped like animals, birds or various objects. She gets a big scare when she is on the Tonight Show and thinks part of her potato chip collection is being eaten.

The second shows the process of making potato chips.

Deb (maxie104), as I said, I love hamburgers and I like huge hamburgers. Maybe not those that weigh up to 50 pounds, but still I like gigantic hamburgers.

I also like pizza and I prefer the giant pizza. Since pizza is your favorite, you might be interested in a gigantic pizza. How does a 45 inches by 50 inches pizza sound?

Here is a video showing it being made.

Larwee · Aug 17, 2007

Purplebear, I am not an expert on baking potatoes. I have never baked them either of the ways shown below and I don't know anyone who has. But I guess there are a bunch of ways of baking potatoes.

I use a microwave for baking potatoes, just as so many other people do. What I'm talking about is all the various other things these two ladies do and each one does it differently.

Purplebear, I assume you probably have your own special way of baking potatoes.

Below are a couple of videos showing two different ways to bake potatoes.

Comedy Saturday

This thread is to help all of us escape the regular routine. Comedy is one of the best ways to escape.

Since this is Saturday and there aren't as many members around as during the week, I'm trying to do a topic that would be very easy. Just add funny videos for others to enjoy.

I'll start it with a couple and possibly add more later. I thought of both of these because of all the food videos yesterday.

The first is David Letterman working at a McDonald's and the second is a perfect example on how not to prepare a grilled cheese sandwich.

How about you? Can you add some funny videos?

Larwee · Aug 18, 2007

Animals can often provide a good laugh. Here is a little comedy provided by a few cats.

Oh those cat videos were HYsterICal! I really needed a laugh.
But darn you Larry, you made me want to go out and get a new kitten.

They are SO adorable and funny when they are little.

Larwee · Aug 19, 2007

Dogs can be a little humorous at times. Here are three dog videos that should make you laugh, or at least smile.
