Iowahawk: When Spuds Are Outlawed, Only Outlaws Will Have Spuds
Iowahawk | January 27, 2011 | David Burge

Posted on 01/27/2011 6:56:59 PM PST by EveningStar

Ok then, I’m sticking to mashed pots with milk and butter. As for tater tots, I’ll pull up Ron White and check with him.

Corn is much more fattening than spuds, so lets outlaw that too.

I have an idea! Lets make a law to substitute the sugar and high fructose corn syrup with carrot juice, the healthy sweetener. /s

Bacon cheeseburgers with onions!

BACON AND EGGS!

To paraphrase:

"Bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon, eggs, cheese, and bacon."

I'll take it, with a sprinkle of bacon bits on the eggs, please!
