Solid food gold.

(Tacos, from a kit. Taco Dinner by Casa Fiesta.) Gift from a departing expat. Fry up some ground beef, add seasoning packet, scoop into stale taco shells from kit (kinda crunchy, but not really), add sour cream and greens, salsa (From the kit) and chopped tomatoes, and voila - sheer expat heaven?

Party in your mouth???? NOT. I mean, no way, Jose. But... kind of.

(Me) How do you describe this meal?
(T) It was a school lunch...
(Me) Soul Food. It was like the things you used to eat in grade 4, grade school.
(T) You can call it whatever you like.... comfort food.... but at the end of the day, it's just cracker food.
(E) So what's wrong with cracker food?
(T) The whole use of the word 'cracker,' is what wrong with cracker food. We also have to give a shout out to the cracker items provided by Dave and Heidi - Ritz Crackers (no pun intended) with peanut butter, dipped in chocolate - salty sweet yummy - - and also the pumpkin whoopee pie. (Pumpkin whoopee pie?!) The Europeans would ban them just based on the Trans-fat content.
(E) A meal like that deserves capping. How about we open the Nutter Butters?
(T) I have no response to that.
(E) I take that's a yes.
(E) Pure bliss.
(T) Whatever.
