Food Meme
I haven't done a meme in a while, so I was inspired by a fav blog. I think this list is going to leave me a little disappointed with myself. But, hey, maybe I can set some food goals. :)
How it works:
1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.

I feel like there should be more pickles on this list, or at least a giant kosher deli pickles that you have to fish out of a barrel. I also think homemade alcohol should be on there as well. Oh and strained Greek yogurt with honey, or frozen strained Greek yogurt soft serve. More baked goods, like cream puffs and chocolate chip cookies. The beverage selection is so specific to alcohol as well, take off the cocktails and add fresh squeezed orange juice. Paneer kind of counts at cottage cheese, but real cottage cheese should be on there. Goodness I could keep amending till the cows come home (to be eaten!)
