Imagine that aluminum would spoil it. But I’ve seen little 12 oz screwtop plastic bottles in the canteens of a couple of places where I worked not too long ago.

Or maybe it was 8 oz.

Celery with pimento cheese is good to go.

Anything with pimento cheese is good to go.

That would work! Just thought of another—my all-time favorite going to high school was cream cheese sprinkled with instant coffee, sugar, and cinnamon on whole wheat. It was so popular I usually had to bring two or more or hide it altogether because everyone wanted it.

Popcorn (not microwave) in milk with salt on top. Salami and cheese on the side, washed down with beer.

Peanut butter and kosher dill sandwiches. Cosmic wonderfulness.

An “oatmeal cookie” is a drink with Jager and Kahlua and some other stuff. It tasted delicious, but I should have stuck to one.

Thanks for the pic. My friends mother used to make them every holiday. She’d put cut up Maraschino Cherries in the cream cheese, but I prefer them with just the cream cheese and Lowry’s Seasoned Salt.

Never had it before, but I saw a video of an American living in South Korea that swore that peanut butter fried squid was delicious.

something you’d get by whirling vodka and Vicks Vaporub in a blender

My theory is that Jager is fermented lawn clippings.

Seems like the only time those are widely stocked here would be for a Jewish holiday, Passover? Not sure. Large Jewish population in Greensboro.

For the Mexican Cokes with cane sugar, you’d probably have to go to what is now known as Little Mexico. It was Sunnyside, a suburb of Winston-Salem, when my mother grew up there. I don’t recall seeing them elsewhere.

Maybe I should take a stroll down the international aisle of a few groceries specializing in unusual seasonings, foods and beverages from other countries to see if they’re there. We don’t really have too many “bodegas” here, not yet at least. That sounds like where they would be for most places.

-- Heck, that's an Italian dessert! --

Indeed. That's where I "learned" of it. Desert cheese! I had it with the honey and balsamic sprinkled over the cheeses (more than one kind) and plate. Talk about rich.

I love asparagus. I tried Outback’s wood-fire grilled asparagus a while back, loved it, and decided to try it at home. I don’t have a gas or charcoal grill where I live, but marinated the baby asparagus overnight in some olive oil, kosher salt, ground pepper, minced garlic, and added a few drops of liquid smoke. Grilled them on my indoor electric grill, and they taste just like the ones I had at Outback. Just enough smoke flavor to make them taste like they were done on an outdoor grill.

All pimento cheese is not created equal. Best is homemade. Second is a local, limited distribution variety made with three types of cheese, not too chunky, not too much mayonnaise, maybe the hot variety. Here that was Musten & Crutchfield in Kernersville, still is if you buy it directly from them. Not so much the licensed variety found in grocery chains like Food Lion, something got lost in translation.
