The president spoke with UN SG Kofi Annan about the international force being assembled for Lebanon; the Iranian regime's statement on its nuclear program; and the need to improve the situation in Darfur. He attended a fundraiser for Senator George Allen, R-VA.

President Bush met with Rockey Vaccarella, Louisiana victim of Hurricane Katrina, to discuss rebuilding efforts there.

The mayo I get is really tangy and sharp, so it may be that that is very similar to your salad cream. Different brands of mayo taste different on this side of the pond -- some are more bland, some more tangy.

Wikepedia suggests it is similar to another product

"The H. J. Heinz Company remains the primary producer of salad cream, although it is also produced by other companies in the United Kingdom. In the United States, where salad cream is generally unavailable (and unknown), the T. Marzetti company produces a similar product, called T. Marzetti Original Recipe Slaw Dressing. Salad cream generally comes in a clear glass bottle, or, more recently, a clear plastic squeeze bottle."

The Mayonnaise I know is Hellman's which to me is very thick and glupy whereas salad cream is like thick ketchup and you can drizzle it over the salad ingredients rather than putting a dolup on.

T. Marzetti Original Recipe Slaw Dressing.

Ohhhh okay! I know Marzetti's slaw dressing. It is very good, but I only use that on cole slaw, not a lettuce salad.

I like coleslaw made with salad cream rather than the watery stuff they use in the premade bought stuff.

I see your point -- American mayo, all that I have tried, is thick, but that's why I love it. For green salads, I want a dressing that pours.

That makes sense -- coleslaw dressing is runnier than mayo, in the States.

One of my favorite dressings is a mixture of

mayo
ketchup
lemon juice

Yummy - More mayo than ketchup btw.

Hmmm - that reminds me of "goup," a local condiment served at the drive-through-only burger joint that all the youth of my city hung out at / had to visit if you were "cruising town" when I was a teenager. It consisted of mayo, mustard, and pickle bits and we used it to dip our French fries into. You could also put it on your hamburger.

Fond memories.

I still make it as a homemade tartar sauce for breaded fish.

This diet acts on the chemical interaction of foods, and it is totally weird.
But it works......and it's only three days.



Ohio:

Can you share some specific details about this diet?

Here's the way I eat it (there are some choices, but these are mine)......

Day ONE: For breakfast toast with two tablespoons of peanut butter on it and a half grapefruit (and tea), and for lunch a piece of toast with a half cup tuna on it, and for supper, 3 ounces of chicken (can be any meat), a cup of fresh beans and a cup of beets, with a cup of plain vanilla ice cream for dessert and a small apple.

Day TWO: For breakfast a half a banana and a soft boiled egg on (dry) toast, and tea. For lunch, a cup of cottage cheese (can be tuna) and five saltine crackers........then two hot dogs (no buns or condiments), a cup of broccoli and a half cup carrots for supper with a half banana and plain vanilla ice cream for dessert.

Day THREE: For breakfast, one ounce of cheddar cheese and five saltines and an apple for breakfast, and for lunch a hard boiled egg and a piece of toast, and for supper a cup of tuna (I substitute Orange Roughy) and a cup of green beans and a cup of carrots, with a half cup of plain vanilla ice cream and a half a cantalope for dessert.

Other than the skimpy lunch on days 2 and 3, you feel really full most of the time...........oh, and you drink 8 full glasses of water every day too. The only seasonings you can use are salt and pepper, and you can drink diet pop if you want.

That's pretty much it!

I know, I know...........that's what Mr Ohio says all the time, and I agree that the most important thing is to be healthy (which is why I work so hard at it).

But once in a while, I'd like it to SHOW.........like it did just 15 years ago or so. Sigh........

Then I see all the skinny people walking around who do absolutely nothing, and it makes it even worse.

BUT!!! Last Dr's check up I had a resting pulse of 48, JUST like the President (only I have a little medicine to help me out. :)

So overall, I'm OK with the whole thing.
