Why does my salsa con queso always go pear-shaped?

"No sugar in iced tea? You ain't from around here are ya?"

As much as I hate to, I've got to agree with that one.

Confession: I usually take my iced tea (and only iced tea) carcinogenic pink. I can drink it unsweetened if necessary, but not for enjoyment.

Ordering a sweet tea in Iowa

Waitress: What would you like to drink?

Non Iowegian Patron: sweet tea

Waitress: Would you like lemon in your tea?

Non Iowegian Patron: yes or no

3 minutes pass

Waitress: Here is a glass of iced tea*. Want sweet tea? Here is the sugar bowl and a sundae spoon.



*We don't drink instant or fountain tea here in Iowa, either hot/cold brewed or sun tea.

Hey, I drink hot tea (currently on Irish Breakfast/Lapsang Souchong) I just put sugar in it.

At least we agree on the decaf....

I drink my iced tea with no sugar.

I drink my hot tea with LOTS of sugar.

I drink my hot coffee with no sugar.

I drink my iced coffee with LOTS of sugar.

If I'm having coffee, hot or iced, I just have coffee, no cream or sugar.  But when I'm having mocha latte, I drink mocha latte, etc.  I don't drink hot tea that often, and it's usually plain Lipton.  I find that the fruit-flavored tea somehow ends up being rather tasteless.  Barnes and Noble (Starbucks) sells something called African Sun or something like that, whatever is in the red package.  I like that stuff.

Yah know what else is wierd?  I drink skim milk and I like it!

[SADShooter]

I'll use whole milk/cream for cooking applications which call for them, but on the rare occasions I drink milk, it's skim.

oh yuck..  rather drink wheat paste then that stuff. I had a hard time switching from whole milk to 2%. I was at my brother's place (Cedar Falls, IA) a few weeks ago and he buys skim milk from a local mom and pop dairy, I actually found it to be quite palatable, too bad they don't have where I live, 90 miles away.

I use half and half in my coffee.

When I actually drink "milk," it's soy milk.

Right now I'm drinking a gin & tonic. It's hotter than hell here right now.

Mike, I could write a commandment about soy milk, but the Bible already condemns homosexuality.

Yep, that Christian ethic of "judge not, lest ye be judged" is really shining right now...
