The Coffee House

Basically just about any combinations of carbs and cheese, and I am in troooouuuuble!

Oh how true this is... The wife and I have been on a bagel and cream cheese kick lately. I can't stop. I'm debating stopping at the supermarket to pick up some pumpernickel bagels.

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, then, that I've recently discovered that I'm getting less tolerant of cheese. I've always been somewhat lactose-intolerant, but mostly what affected me was milk, ice cream, and really rich cheeses like brie. It seems lately, however, I am starting to react to more cheeses and to smaller amounts of cheese, and I feel noticeably better when I keep the cheese intake pretty limited. I suppose it's helpful for my waistline but it's so so so sad for the rest of me!

Nooooooooooo!

I'm with you on the Tennessee sippin' whiskey and the coffee!

We seem to keep finding more and more to agree on!!!!

Only milk product that I'm not intolerant of is Blue Bell Ice Cream and Nacho cheese (when mixed with jalapenos and served warm on chips)

What in heck are Krystal burgers anyway?

Tiny little bits of heaven!! The bun is just the right size to soak up all the grease so nothing is lost We buy the cheese burgers by the sack (dozen). Just the right size for snacking on while driving down the road. Menu | Krystal Hamburgers | Local Fast Food the chili cheese pup is pretty good also, though it's to messy to eat and drive. And oh yeah, you know someone's had a bag of Krystals in the car for days after LOL

Can I send my wife to visit???? She gets on the bagel and cream cheese kicks - I can tolerate them with enough cream cheese. Shame those little tubs aren't 3x larger

My wife barely puts any cream cheese on. If I can see the bagel through the layer of cream cheese, the layer is too thin!

She does it the way I do it.

It's annoying as hell to have one's peripheral brain lecturing you while you try to enjoy something clearly not in your best interests. So I try to shut it down with these little tricks, when these goodies are in front of me. I have to just admit that the best thing for me is just to avoid them, so I don't become annoyed either way - by giving in to temptation or trying to moderate said temptation! Just shrug and find something else. blah!

I'm like your wife - a shmear is usually enough. Part of it depends on the bagel. What I'm ultimately concerned with is not the overall amount of cream cheese, but the ratio. Some bagels can handle a bit more, but some bagels are so good on their own that anything more than a shmear would be criminal

I like bagels

Enjoyed a new delicacy this week, deep fried corn on the cob. I love fried corn so I assumed I would this wasn't disappointed it was great. Unfortunately I was stuffed before I got to sample the deep fried deviled eggs. Will be back in that area in a month so it's on my bucket list.

I don't know, but there was a disclaimer about staying away from open flames for 48 hours

I'd always wondered why the cream cheese came in those little containers until one day I realized that it's almost the exact size of the bagel, so you can turn it upside down on one!!!

 

[jcdeboever]

I like celery with cream cheese.

Gary likes diets ... he's on two diets ... there's not enough food in one diet.

 

[jcdeboever]

I'm hungry

 

[smoke665]

The only diet I've ever had any success with, the calorie counting app on my phone. I lost my 25# goal, over the course of about 5 months, and didn't starve myself that bad in the process. Now if I start to gain, I'll go back on it for a week or so, rather then let it climb out of control again.
