He talks of the time he spent abroad in Argentina and the lack of authentic Mexican cuisine available which prompted him to spend an entire day gathering ingredients to prepare his own for himself and friends. After preparing the Guillermo, also referred to as the “Mexican peasant dish” which is made up of beans, egg, tortillas, tomato, jalapenos, peppers and spices, only once, his friends were hooked
Billy only gets in trouble when he goes into the barn and eats corn. Unfortunately for Billy, Waldo the Waldo who truly loves goat meat lives
We built a vegetable stand and dad hooked up a doorbell that rang in the house when a person would stop to buy our vegetables. We painted a sign that said Tomatoes, Potatoes, and Cucumbers. Our job during the day was to man the stand. We sold tomatoes for 50 cents a pound, potatoes for 25 cents a pound, and cucumbers were 25 cents each. By the end of the day, we would have sold out of most of the vegetables and when he arrived home we all went to the garden to pick more for the next day.
Then we grab all the potatoes and rinse them off with cold running water. We cut each potato into dices and put all the potato dices into a pan to let them boil. While we cooked potatoes and a turkey, with my dads help, my brothers and I put a ham with pineapples on a grill. The smoke coming off the grill about an hour later really made me so hungry. Who likes pie on Thanksgiving?
The Mike-sell's Potato Chip Company was founded in 1910 and became known as the "oldest potato chip company in the U.S." Today the top three best selling brands of potato chips are Pringles, Ruffles, and Lay's. In fact Pringles are made slightly different from a regular type of potato chip. They are pressed together to make a dough from ground potatoes that are then made into an exact shape so it'll be easier to stack in a can. Frederic J. Baur, the man who created the Pringles can, died in May 2008 and his cremated ashes were then buried inside a Pringles can. Ruffles go their name because their chips are crinkled-cut.
You go right on work’in till you get that thing cleaned up, ya hear?” “Yeah.” he responded. Scotty pulled another handful of vines away from the structure and plopped them into the barrow. When he looked up again, the old man was gone and so was the eerie feeling. He was about to continue with his work when he felt an unexpected sprinkle. “Guess I’ll finish this tomorrow; hey, I wonder where that old guy went?” He looked around as he loaded his tools into the wheelbarrow and pushed it back to the house.
Although Sinclair’s investigation tells a story of the toll the meatpacking industry took on families nearly a hundred years ago, he still offers insight into the deceiving side of America’s food corruptions. Both writers brilliantly offer realization and awareness in their books that will benefit anyone who reads them to make better decisions daily. The description of the factory farming slaughterhouses in both books is enough to send chills down almost anyone’s spine; The Jungle opens with the cruel tactics, yet Fast Food Nation did not mention the slaughterhouses until midway. As Jurgis and his family tour the packinghouse where he will be working as a shoveler,(shoveling blood and guts) they first see what seems to be millions of cows. There are rail yards that carry the cattle to the slaughterhouse where the mechanics of the process are awe-inspiring.
Bushfield Dig was found in a farmer’s field. The farmer was plowing his lawn when bones and other artifacts started showing up. When archeologist arrived they dug up some more items such as chips, chipped rocks, animal bones and other artifacts. When I tried figuring out what they would do with all of these artifacts and how they cooked food this is what I came up with. Back then there was no such thing as a stove so you would have to cook all of you food over a fire.
Couch potatoes are usually big and clumsy.The owner of this dog is very laid back and probably has a very strong relationship with the dog. This dog is known for sleeping on almost everything, getting into the cupboards to eat his owners food, and shedding mountains of hair all over his house. An occasional walk gets the job done, however the dog spends most his time sniffing, and peeing on trees while his owner walks at a slow pace. The couch potato barks at the odd animal but would rather be cuddled up by the fire with his
Round hayfields, cornfields and potato-drills We trekked and picked until the cans were full Until the tinkling bottom had been covered With green ones, and on top big dark blobs burned Like a plate of eyes. Our hands were peppered With thorn pricks, our palms sticky as Bluebeard's. We hoarded the fresh berries in the byre. But when the bath was filled we found a fur, A rat-grey fungus, glutting on our cache. The juice was stinking too.
