Flash feels the same way. Casseroles are strictly forbidden. So I couldn't resist making a french fried creamed chicken spam casserole just to see the reaction.

I like the sound of your beanie weanies casserole, too. I might try that one for next April Fools.

Whenever we go to my MIL's house she cooks a casserole for us made of tater tots, hamburger, processed cheese, sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, etc. It is all I can do to gag it down but my wife keeps giving me that glare that says "you will pretend to like it and keep your mouth shut or you won't get any sex for a month." Yes, ma'am.
...

My roomate's specialty was a "taco casserole" with ground beef , taco sauce, cream of chicken and cream of mushroom, and topped off with a bag of doritos and lots of cheese. That's a couple days worth of sodium intake right there.

When the missionaries came over for dinner, I used to make them things like gyoza, until Mike told me most missionaries wanted more homey, 'comfort' food. So now I make them this chicken dish made with a sauce of cream of chicken, sour cream, and monterey jack cheese, topped with ritz cracker crumbs. They can't get enough of that.

Oh, and Barbara, thank Flash and the kids for being unwilling guinea pigs in the spam casserole experiment.

"Okay then let's go to the right place with you."

We do.

Sushi still sucks.

Sushi IS trendy now, most people didn't want to eat it 20 years ago. I love the melding of different textures and tastes in sushi (of course I grew up eating it), but people who love sushi don't eat it because it's a fad.

Every Sushi I've tried it's all I can do to muscle it past the gag reflex.

It's the only food I've tried where I have to physically & literally work at not throwing it back up. Nevertheless I always try a new one thinking okay..."so I'm not being close minded".

I will admit it is funny to see the looks on the faces of the people I go with who swore after I went with them that I'd love it. They just can't believe that someone would hate it that much.

Good gracious, I wonder what you're eating.

I like sushi because it gives me something to put my wasabi on.

I love sushi. And I love spam in sushi. Spam musubi at the beach with a cold Hawaiian Sun drink in hand is the best.

I love nigiri and rolls though. I've eaten sushi most of my life. Sashimi too. I love it all.

My great grandmother was born in Waipio Valley but she was full Japanese and her parents were imigrants by the name of Kawashima who came to Hawaii to work the sugarcane plantations in Honoka'a on the Big Island around the turn of the century.

Do you dislike all sushi or only the large pieces of actual raw fish? Because the various "rolls" contain things you may like such as rice and vegetables, with only 25% or so being actual raw fish.

For example, go to Ra and try a Las Vegas Roll.

Yeah, there's so much variety it seems like there'd have to be SOMETHING for Rocky to eat. Flash prefers the nigiri sushi and sashimi but I prefer maki.

Next time in Vegas I'll give it a try.

A few days ago while at The Happy Sumo, they only had room for one at the bar area where you can watch them make it, so I did that.

I was surprised to see that some kinds of sushi have chicken in them instead.

I can't stand seaweed...that stuff is disgusting. I've tried probably 7-8 different kinds of sushi and have hated them all. It might be a texture problem. I just know I don't like it. However, I'm still open to trying the kinds I haven't tasted yet.

I'll always try anything food wise once.
