For example, you do not need to make an elaborate dish if the individuals are dogs. A dog will eat pretty much anything; one major reason why there are no restaurants for dogs is that the customers would eat the menus. So a dog will happily eat the same recipe forever. You can feed a dog ''kibble,'' which is actually compressed dirt, every single day for 13 years, and the dog will consider you to be the greatest cook in world history. It will lick the ground you walk on.

Ping for great quote!

Personally, it's difficult to eat the same food too frequently. Even if the food is tasty at first.

I like Hot Pockets pizzas better than most frozen pizzas.

There is no such thing as ''fennel,'' yet many of your gourmet recipes call for it. Other examples of imaginary ingredients are ''shallots,'' ''capers'' and ''arugula.'' So what frequently happens when you try to make a gourmet recipe is, you're progressing briskly through the steps, and suddenly you come across an instruction that the gourmet chef obviously dreamed up moments before passing out facedown in the bearnaise sauce, such as, ``Carmelize eight minced hamouti kleebers into a reduction of blanched free-range whelk corneas.''

LOL

Lol, that chipped beef really got creamed!!

Snoopy's dancing with burgers, very cute.

I miss Barry's column, he's on a hiatus, maybe he's writing a book.

Yes

We miss Dave Barry

His older columns are better than most everyone else's current ones
