Haven't Had That In Awhile!

[Ash]

I picked up a can of Spaghettios while shopping for groceries the other day.
Man, it's been at least 5-6 years since I last ate Spaghettios!

I got the kind with the sliced franks in it.  I've got a lot of fond memories of that particular kind because my mom used to serve it to us kids all the time.



Are there any foods that you like but haven't had in awhile?

[Psycho Circus]

About 14 years and counting. I loved them, but my mother didn't want me eating them.



Linguini Puttanesca. Used to work in a hotel and one of the chefs used to make me a bowl of this stuff now and then, was the best food I have ever tasted. Hands down. 2 years and counting...

Gee Ash, when I read the title, I thought you got laid.

Heh!  I thought that too.
Actually, it has been awhile since I've had:

I have not neen keeping track, but is easily a decade, maybe even more since I had one of these.

Lobster...

Spaghetti carbonara. 



It's been years and I suddenly just got a craving.

Frankie's Chicago Style Pizza - I lived in Minneapolis for many years, and there was this little restaurant called Frankie's that has the best pizza I've ever had in my life.  Now we live about 2 1/2 hours from Minneapolis, so we only get up there once or twice a year - an we ALWAYS stop there for lunch.  Last time was 6 or 7 months ago.

Meatball sub - when I lived in California, there was a little Italian take-out restaurant that had meatball subs that were just extraordinary.  All other meatball subs pale in comparison - like comparing a real pizza with a frozen one.  Haven't been to that place since about 1982.

Hardee's mushroom and swiss burger - I love those things!  The only Hardees around here is way downtown and with all the stoplights and 30 mph traffic, the thing would be cold by the time I got home, so we never go there.  Haven't had one of those in years.

When I was a kid, supermarkets sold SPACE FOOD STICKS.  This was in the years following the first moon landing.  The televisions claimed the astronauts ate these things.  They came in boxes of a dozen or so.  They were thin, cylindrical, individually wrapped snacks that had a texture sort of like a tootsie roll (but much softer and easier to chew).  They came in various flavors like chocolate and peanut butter.  I remember asking my mother to buy them every time we went to the supermarket.  Yeah, sure the astronauts ate them.

Over a decade....

Doner kebab. Fairly easy to find where I used to live, with the best being served at a little diner across the street from my office. The owner was from Cyprus and had the machine shipped over from Turkey. Prepared the meat himself, all fresh and no filler. On a pita with tomato, lettuce, tzatsiki, etc., it can't be beat.

That's not him, by the way. It's a picture from Wikipedia.

Though that logo isn't the one I remember, I defiantly bought and drank RC Cola quite a few years ago, though everybody else who drank cola drank Coke or Pepsi.  I collected the bottles and lined them up in my window until my Dad told me to throw them away  - that's him = 

Now, I see his point...   

[Ash]

I actually bought a 2 liter of RC cola about a month ago.

UGH!  It has seriously gone downhill in taste.
I wasn't even able to finish a single glass, and when it sat in my fridge for over 2 weeks, I ended up dumping it down the drain.

Awful, awful soda.
