Culinary vindication

[vvvexation]

Bear witness all: my roommate no longer gets to mock my taste in food. He is currently heating up a plateful of frozen "Mac & Cheese Wedges." His apparent doubt that they even contained actual macaroni didn't stop him from buying them. Even my dining habits rarely reach that level of bachelorosity.

I'm trying to picture these wedges, yet I continue to fail. I'll Goooogle them.

They're flat, triangular and breaded.

Hey!

You coined a new term!

"Bachelerosity". I like it!

Oh, I do that a lot. I firmly believe English should be as flexible as Esperanto when it comes to suffixes.

Me, personally, I was convinced of this long ago. I think it was back when he made something involving raisins, marshmallows, butterscotch chips, and garlic or something like that. *shudder*

Well, yes, but the "Iron Chef WTF" factor is one thing and the "bachelor chow" factor is another. The things he usually makes don't generally count as bachelor chow because they don't come prepackaged, which is why he's previously been able to mock me. But no longer!

Not only that but they're *battered* Macaroni and Cheese wedges.

[vvvexation.livejournal.com]

Indeed. We toyed with the idea of calling a shelter.

Breaded macaroni wedges? Jesus.

My second girlfriend used to eat ramen without cooking it, but it was just as a snack.

All the kids did that when I was in the fifth grade or so. It was the trendy lunch item.

Whoa. That's just freaky.

Reminds me of a friend of mine who used to boil 5lbs of potatos on Mondays and eat them with ketchup the rest of the week.

To whom it may concern:

While I did in fact buy the "battered mac & cheese wedges" V speaks of, and verily did I cook and eat them, I maintain that they do not represent the normal spectrum of my diet. They were next to the battered mushrooms (in the abused veggies shelter in the freezer section of Smart & Final), and were intriguing enough that my curiosity was piqued.

No, I say; my diet was, is, and shall continue to be Iron Chef WTF.Fear me.

FWIW, the wedges do in fact contain actual macaroni and cheese - Kraft quality. And are relatively tasty, for what they are.

Did I for one moment assert that these did represent your usual diet? See my reply to Angyl above.

And I haven't forgotten to fear you, either--Mister Pink Syrup Man.

That's Mr. "Black Currant Kissel" Tovarich, to you. :-P
