What is your favorite food?
This should be a very easy one since I believe all of us eat. We all have something favorite that we enjoy eating.
I don't really care for anything all that special. I previously mentioned that I love spam sandwiches. I also like pizza, hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, ice cream, pie, cake, cheez-it and lasagna.
My absolute favorite is the good old hamburger. It can be a hamburger, cheeseburger or hamburger with various things added. But I really love hamburgers. I especially love large hamburgers.
I couldn't eat either of the two following hamburgers by myself at one time since one is 31 pounds and the other is 50 pounds.
Hey everyone. Don't know why I couldn't answer this yesterday. Must have had brain freeze . My favorite actor has to be Johnny Depp. The man can do anything. This clip is a good one...enjoy.
I hope all of you are enjoying this thread and that you will be telling others about it as well as letting some people know about 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums. This has now become the longest thread in the history of 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums.
Any of you care to tell about your favorite food?
Here is another video about large hamburgers. In this one a guy drives about 4 hours to go to a place that sells 15 pound hamburgers.
Julia, that reminds me that I also love peanut butter. There are times when I will eat nothing but peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for a couple of days. That happens about 4 times a year. I also love peanut butter and preserves sandwiches.
Sometimes I will buy regular peanut butter from a supermarket. But there are a couple of natural food stores I sometimes go to that make the peanut butter right there in the store with nothing added to the peanut butter. That is some good peanut butter.
Yesterday was the 30th anniversary of the death of Elvis Presley and that helped to remind me that possibly his favorite food was fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches. There are some famous stories about him and his love for fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
These two videos have a little humor in them. The first is about how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The second is how to make a peanut butter and banana sandwich, which is a little different and a lot easier to make than the fried peanut butter and banana sandwich. Obviously that isn't really Julia Child in the second video; however a child is in it.
In an effort to please, I have come as close as possible to making it possible for you to see the famous fried peanut butter and banana sandwich that Elvis Presley loved so much.
This video features an Elvis impersonator actually making a fried peanut butter and banana sandwich and giving instructions.
I like pretty much everything. One of my favs is Rib Eye Steak on the Grill.
My way - not from a restaurant. And I only use Charcoal - not gas and lots of hickory chips!
Smokey, yummy! Man I cook a mean steak! Making your mouth water???
One of my worst habits is munching at night - I don't snack during the day at all. But I get these food addictions where I just have to have certain foods at night before I go to bed. I don't let myself buy junk food any more, so at least I'm not sitting around eating potato chips, which I love.
Recently I'm hooked on nectarines - I HAVE TO HAVE 2 every night.
So at least this time it's a healthy addiction.

oooh I'm havin a tough time keepin up. lol
Taters are definitely my weakness. lol Never met a tater I didn't like. lol Guess a baked tater's probably my favorite. Love sherbert (the tropical flavors and sorbet (especially boysenberry)
oooh Linda can I come for dinner? lol Only a charcoaler too. We're a dyin breed where I live. Everybody's got the gas ones. uhh not to start any debate here lol but uhhh doesn't taste barbecued unless it's been made with charcoal. Needs to have the charcoal flavor lol Now, I'm sure a bunch of gassies will weigh in here now. lol Just my opinion only. ummm a nice rib eye steak and a baked tater on the grill sounds awfully yummmmmy or a hamburger Larwee.
Love anything pineapple, too. Have a recipe for pineapple muffins that are really yummy. Love angel food cake oooooooh and I really love New York style cheesecake. hmmm I'm starting to get hungry now. Got a yummy recipe for that, too. Maraschino cherries, too.....oooh really hungry.
ps Julia - I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch today... I like the crunchy kind with the little pieces of nuts in it and of course have to take a little taste before closing the lid with a knife.
