Leek soup is delicious.

Calorie counting + Cardio + Strength Training = Slimmer body.

A leek is like an onion right?

I like onion soup. I wouldn't mind trying it.

It's in the onion family. I've heard it's delicious, which is the only reason I tried it. It tasted like piss's more pleasant brother. I think I may just have odd taste buds. No matter how much I try alcohol, it all tastes like crap, too. And celery is kinda disgusto, too. I tried it w/ peanut butter and it was like "shit, wtf you feeding me?" I don't like pickles or pickled crap either.

Yuck Pickles! Ew. I'm with on that one sister.

I hate it when the juice spills out of the jar and the smell gets all over the fridge.

I hate it when they put it on your burger, even though you told them not too, and then someone says. "Well just pick off" and it never works cause the juice has soaked in and it still tastes like Pickle.

IDE · « **Reply #36 on:** Dec 10, 2008, 02:18:03 PM »

Celery hardly has a taste at all, much less a disgusting taste.

I love pickles but not other pickled foods. Actually I don't think I've tried them.

Alcohol is an acquired taste I guess, and few people are drinking it for how good it tastes anyway. There are some scottish ales that I actually like the taste of. But I drink a lot of tequila and it's definitely not for the taste.

I've actually gotten use to the slightest hint of pickle juice on Chick-fil-a's sandwiches. But only on theirs.

Did you know that you can request a sandwich sans pickles? I was in line at the chick-fil-a and this girl next to me told the workers she wanted a sandwich with no pickles and I'm like shit you can actually do that?!? I think it's just easier to pick them out but I don't because I love pickles the more the better!

For Thanksgiving, we got to sit around in our PT uniforms and watch movies all day. Then the officers and senior NCO's served us dinner and we got to eat as much as we wanted. They let us spend a whole hour in the dining facility and talk, and we got to eat sweets without fear of getting smoked. It was pretty awesome.

I thought you always got to eat as much as you wanted. But you'd catch shit if you took more than you could eat?

Bitch · « **Reply #48 on:** Dec 27, 2008, 05:57:25 PM »

During red phase, you get to eat as much as you can stuff in your face in the two minutes they give you to eat. That is, they give you fifteen minutes to be in the D-fac, then you have to wait at parade rest for the rest of your platoon to get to the table, then you get the rest of that time to eat. Unless you piss off the drill sergeant enough; then you get about 30 seconds, and God help you if you get up from the table still chewing. However, once you get to white phase, you do get a good amount of time to eat. And I've never seen anyone get in trouble for getting more than they can eat. However, a piece of raisin cake costs however many push-ups the drill sergeant feels like giving you.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #49 on:** Dec 29, 2008, 10:40:01 AM »

What do they usually give you to eat??

Bitch · « **Reply #50 on:** Dec 29, 2008, 09:16:18 PM »

Normal food: breakfast we choose from eggs, bacon, sausage, hashbrowns, biscuit with gravy, pancakes, french toast, oatmeal and grits. Lunch and dinner are usually grilled cheese sandwiches, fish, and chicken of some sort. There are vegetables and either rice or a potato for side dishes. Sunday lunch we get cheeseburgers, frozen pizza, cr0n dogs, chili dogs and curly fries, and we get to choose two meats. The fact that I can type the menu from memory will tell you how monotonous it can get. When we get stuff like mac and cheese or goulash or fried catfish, its gone really, really quick.

When we're at the firing range or training in the field, we get MRE's. These are okay once in a while, and the treats are usually pretty good, but they get old pretty fast. There's usually a lot of elementary-school sack lunch style trading when we have these. You never, ever want to get the breakfast MRE's with eggs. Ever.

Sounds like I'd like the food situation. And if they think they can penalize me by giving me whole 30 seconds to eat they have another thing coming.

Faye Valentine · « **Reply #52 on:** Dec 30, 2008, 09:09:25 AM »

Yeah sounds good to me too! My friend who was a ranger told me that the MREs sucked ( he would have to eat them for weeks )

I've had pretty shitty scrambled egg microwaveable TV-breakfast before and it seems to always give me the shits. Are you telling me these are just as bad, or worse?

TG was the evening on which I got poison ivy on my right arm bad enough to make me look like Hellboy for a month. And this after barely recovering from bronchitis. Think my sister brushed up against it at her house getting into the car and I got nailed while hugging her wearing a 3/4 sleeve sweater.

Side note: if you ever get poison ivy - hot water. As hot as you can stand it. The relief is borderline orgasmic.
