I'd just like the record to state that I was less graphic in my teasing ...

That Greg .. He's a troublemaker

but HOW can one get across the exquisite existence and aromatic ambrosia of the event without being descritpive. It was LESS teasing gary like YOU did Mr, than sharing one of life's little personal pleasures that make us all unique, yet a whole in this community of mankind. =)

I have been to two pig roasts and eaten, but loooong ago.
You know, greg is a nice guy, but I sense he is teasing me a bit here.
off to find my bean burritos-yummo!

All this talk to food and I'm starving.

Actually, Gary, I have far more respect for vegetarians who used to eat meat than those who were indoctrinated as children. That's good to know.

No, as my parents will tell you, I have made ALL my own decisions.
It stinks though that there is a strong strain of lactose intolerance in my family, affecting us all, and the medicine no longer helps me soooooo:
no cheese, cream, ice cream, milk chocolate, cakes, gawd the list goes on...I wasn't planning on going vegan but I suppose it is healthy. I worry that I have become an impossible house guest, and shall travel everywhre with a cooler full of bean burritos and oranges.

I can't imagine you being an impossible houseguest! it just doesn't ring true! .. besides therre are soo many delicous meatless recipes. The fact you will break bread with us 'carnies' means each to their own and all are happy!

Omnivores. Carnivores eat only meat.

Late to the party. Hope someone saved me a slice! I started thinking food with the pigs in blankets post and reading these comments has just made it worse. Oh, and I have never been to a pig roast. So if anyone's planning one and has room for one more...
