    Could V8 be considered a food, even though it's packaged as a drink? Maybe tomato soup. I love my V8s, though. :eek:

    Those were two separate sketches. The first one had the catch phrase about the 'juice'. The second one is unrelated. That was just about getting Kirstie Alley to eat food off Sandler's crotch and the waiter's hitting on her.

    I am looking at documents which mention felafel as standard food in many parts of Greece, for instance on the islands of The Cyclades like Santorini and also commonly during Lent.

    But as I have never been, if you tell me they are wrong I will trust you.

    More Greek for in Austin!!!!!

    (any Greek food in Austin!)



    I love a good Greek salad. The simple country salad you find there, not the kind we typically see with a bunch of lettuce. The best tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta I've ever tasted were in a little Greek village, at a place run by a family that was a home, a bar, a taverna, a beautiful garden overflowing with flowers, and a couple of spotless, white-washed rooms upstairs, with a balcony overlooking the countryside.

    Oh hell, I love alllllll Greek food. Anything and Everything, I will eat it at a Greek restaurant.

    My faves in Houston are Mykonos Island & Niko Nikos.

    When I was a kid, there was a place called Zorba the Greeks down by the port & ship channel, in a really crappy neighborhood. My family used to go there all the time, because they had some of the best fried shrimp in the world that they used to serve with fries, greek salad and dolmades. There were always drunk Greek sailors in there too. :D

    He's Georgian, though. And I don't know what Georgian food tastes like.

    I work at Jason's Deli, and I get sick of stocking it in the pastry case every night. I don't understand how people eat it. It's so gross.

    Blasphemy! I don't even like sweets, but I like it.

    And I'm guessing that there aren't more Moussaka lovers because they haven't tried it. I made it a few weeks ago. 24 servings. It was gone by morning. Harrisment's ex came in late at night and had eight (with I hope, friends) servings, herself.
