This thread is going to start sounding like the bar-food scene in the movie Ladies Man... It's funny to see people here saying they won't eat certain foods, when this list is a collection of people who eat more pepper than most of the population. Is there a grits-heads mailing list? Are there people who bring their own okra to restaurants? Anyone with a private stash of oatmeal in the car or office? Has anyone driven the rest of the family out of the house because of the smell of chitlins drying in the oven? Wait, that's way too nasty an image, forget I said that. I've smelled a kitchen that had chitlins cooking - half the smell was like food, but the other half wasn't... I got no hits when I entered "koshalena" into yahoo. It's ham hocks and trotters, boiled and then chilled to gel. Another one of these Lithuanian foods that goes with vodka, salt, and dark bread. And, of course, pepper, in my own opinion. Mom thinks that's disgusting. - A _________________________________________________________________ Choose an Internet access plan right for you -- try MSN! http://resourcecenter.msn.com/access/plans/default.asp
