You can get away with that if you do heavy physical labor. I used to watch some of the old "greenhorns" put bacon fat on dark bread followed with their ethnic preference (wine, vodka, etc). They seemed to live forever! And, they smoked! They drank pots of black coffee! So I was somewhat suspicious when TPTB came up with eggs will kill you thingy. Humans have been eating eggs for a thousands of years, without any dire consequences. IMO- you just have to adjust your diet accordingly, no matter how painful.

No, it's a universal thing, because it TASTES GOOD!

Another "heart stopper": sausage. And, all the old "greenhorns" made, ate, and loved them. And yet they seemed to live forever. I think it was a "head set" as much as the diet, combined with physical labor. Personally, I like salsa on my BBQ'd brats and Italian sausage, but tend to mustard and sauerkraut on the kielbasa. Ketchup is still a big go on my burgers.

Biscuits and Sausage Gravy! I'm pretty sure this is a Southern Breakfast, how bout it yall? Do they serve this in your local breakfast diner? Bulk sausage fried and crumbled up, then flour added and milk to make a thick white gravy. Served over open faced Buttermilk Biscuits.

Ah, Southern breakfasts! One of the true glories of the USA!

I have yet to have gone out to a decent breakfast here in British Columbia --- at least, at a decent price!

Americans really do breakfasts well!

Even I can make french toast far, far better than I can get in a restaurant here!
[accompanied, of course, by native maple syrup!]

I just have to console myself with the fresh salmon I get straight off the boat. wink

Salmon for Breakfast? sick

Way way back in the day when I was just a wee tyke, my old grandpa would eat fried, boney Blue Gill Bream for breakfast. Sometimes he'd throw me one on the floor where the kids and dogs were fed...(LOL Kidding)It was way too boney for me to deal with early in the morning.

Just Mustard on the brats for me, Guldens is my regular too.
Grey Poupon has a "Harvest Course Ground" that I use for special occasions.
I'm roasting a duck tomorrow, a l'orange or au naturale?

Does anybody realize that 9 pages of dialog (or dialogue, if you prefer) has been generated about the topic of Ketchup or Catsup?

Man...and to think how we might get wound up about something really serious like "banana split"..... ROTFMOL


Turn on ANY brand of political machine - and it automatically goes to the "SPIN and LIE CYCLE" wink

While we might all lose interest quickly in the governor of South Carolina or even Michael Jackson, we never lose interest in food.

Ketchup on a hamburger will never let you down. A politician will. I find this thread a pleasant diversion. A thread on banana splits? I may qualify as an expert on that worthwhile subject. However, ketchup is and always will be a friend, which- depending upon the brand- won't let you down.
