Thumbrules?: 1) Food aversions, child and adult, (and Alexic), are survival mechanisms. 2) Never serve food to children. Toss. 3) Not all veggies are worried about what you're eating. Some don't care, and you can even tell em you like it, and not feel guilty. 4) I think I mentioned I set out to brag, and I think I like it, because I think I enjoy my collected memories of hours spent in this kitchen with my wife, and what a freaking genius of a cook she is. And coming home and finding a bowl of bread dough rising on the water heater. 5) We're not politico-veggies, and dislike people who are, because we dislike politics worse than anything. 6) We know the world eats meat, and heck, we even go out with these people. 7) Good veggie-detente meat-eaters tease vegetarians; saying things like "I'm eating raw hamburger" or, like Gus, "If they could clone human tissue in vats, I'd eat it." 8) Spermatazoa are still in a gray area. 9) Share the craziness: I'd rather starve than eat meat, Alex would rather stave than eat an apricot. 10) Everyone enjoys a good meal. 11) Everyone enjoys good company, at the right time. 12) Food in a warm garden is celestial. 13) We have to eat to survive, they made it that way. 13b) Even veggies are killers. 14) Who cares. Wanna beer?

Option A: <shyly> well no, not really.
Option B: <snort> yeah right.

I look like John Travolta (well, from the neck on down, of course) (and another diff - he had pecs) and it's accelerating. Soon I will look like John Goodman, or maybe Gleason. Before crustal strain sets in and a "personal subduction zone" develops.

The problem, Penni, is that they are yankees, and know not the noble and un-yuppie vegetables that make up the proper civilized diet. Crowder peas, blackeyes, corn, collards. Okra. Not that I get to see much of it in LALA land.
