I love oatmeal. Chopped apples make a key addition to apple cinnamon oatmeal. Fresh sliced peaches go well with a peaches and cream style. Chopped mango and kiwi can work well in a tropical themed bowl. Mashed banana adds a nice sweetness that pairs well with peanut butter and chocolate chips (Elvis style oatmeal!)

It's a totally different meat from regular bologna. It's a nicely spiced meat. Dark colored, not like the bland-looking bologna. Give it a try. It's sometimes hard to find, but a deli/supermarket that has Boarshead will probably have it. I had a feeling you weren't talking about Oscar Meyer. Haha I see Boarshead in our local supermarket. I'll have to try and remember to look for Lebanon Bologna. Pennsylvania also has some pretty good cheesesteak sandwiches and about 20 years ago I was taken to a place in Philly for some snapping turtle soup. Put sherry in it as I recall. Anyway, everyone hum along: "My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R My bologna has a second name, it's M-A-Y-E-R I love to eat it every day That is why I always say Oscar Mayer makes the best B-O-L-O-G-N-A" 😀😀😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fish are cleaned (head removed, fins scratched off) in market stalls when you order them, but they are not killed on the spot. They are delicious, though 🙂 I am sorry, I have had them where the fish were swimming in a tub. In The Hague at the big market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You order, they grab one, fillet it, toss the fillets on a roll with chopped onion, hand it to you. Maybe 20 - 30 seconds fresh Nice or having a rollmop is good too.

I eat oatmeal as sweet. I eat grits as savory. I eat cream of wheat both ways. I eat cream of wheat, too, with butter and salt. Yep. I love grits, too, both as breakfast with butter and as dinner with cheese, pork belly or shrimp. I actually brought back 2 boxes of Quaker assorted instant grits from my trip to Florida - took the baggies out of the boxes and just put them in wherever they fit in my bag. Plain, Butter, Cheese, Bacon... Has anyone had grits on a HAL ship? Breakfast, lunch or dinner??? Take some of that candied bacon that is making it's rounds on the ship and crumble it into the grits - yummy!!! I have an idea for breakfast at the buffet - an Oatmeal bar. Put out all those goodies for us to mix in - peanut butter, chocolate chips, banana, bacon crumbles, butter, cream, brown sugar, cranberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, walnuts, almonds, etc. My Lebanon bologna? I'll take it regular or sweet. I don't discriminate. Edited July 14, 2019 by slidergirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be the best eggplant dish in the world and I will not like it because I don't like eggplant. 😀 Typical oatmeal for me is brown sugar, raisons, bacon crumpled in, and milk.

Does your green jello have anything in it? My aunt makes a fabulous lime jello salad with marshmallow, cream cheese, and pineapple (and colored mini-marshmallows on top) - I've tried making it and it's close but never quite like hers. We don't eat green jello salad any more. DH's grandmother use to make jello with pears in it, and DH loved it. Then one Easter, she brought it. DH took a big scoop, and realized that this time she replaced the pears with onions. He now has serious jello salad trust issues. 🤣🤣 On a cruise buffet, I don't eat scrambled eggs or omelets. the liquid eggs have gluten in them. I only have real fresh eggs fried or poached. The other thing I won't eat on the buffet is curried goat. That is a hard pass. Tried it once. That was one time to many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had goat as the protein one dinner at a safari camp in Kenya, Not bad. We also went to some famous "wild game" (not really wild anymore) in Nairobi our last night - kind of like those Brazilian restaurants where the servers walk around with skewers of meat. Crocodile, ox, camel, ostrich, bull balls... I was the only one who took the balls - I had Rocky Mountain Oysters before and these tasted the same,.

"regular" bologna could be eaten plain or fried, Lebanon bologna is only eaten plain (at least I never ever had it fried - it's more like a Genoa salami than regular bologna). And, we did Spam - fry it up and put some maple syrup on it! In Hawaii, I always get a couple pieces of Spam musubi!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
