Coyo yogurts yuk theyre made of coconut i think. They have probiotics in them. But they sort of taste like cottage cheese ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

I cant have cheese cos i cant have dairy and I LOVE cheese, but this stuff does NOT fill the gap!! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Duh!
There's a BIG difference between Grits and Cream of Wheat AND both are good!

Cream of Wheat is finely ground wheat.

Grits is coarsely ground white corn.

Here's how I like my Cream of Wheat: gently heat to boil 2 pints of Half and Half. Stir like religion while adding Cream of Wheat. Then add 1tsp of real vanilla. Then add level tsp of cinnamon. Then add a half stick of unsalted butter. Then add dark brown sugar to taste.
Some people add salt - I don't.
--------

Grits are an entirily different animal. Here is the intent for Grits -

Get yer coarse ground Grits down in a sauce pan and boil the s#!t out them for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, panfry that bacon and add three or four tablespoons of grease to the Grits (lower the heat). Add salt to taste.
You can determine the consistency of Grits according to how you prefer them (I like mine somewhat thick).
After piling a heap of Grits on the plate, I like to place three over-medium eggs on the pile and break the yolk.
Add black pepper then chop with fork. Hog it down with the cooked bacon.
Welcome to the south.

Here's my take on liver after a life time:

There is nothing that smells better than pan fried beef liver - and I mean nothing..... But after it's done, throw that s#!t in the trash, because I ain't gonna eat those guts!

There's very little food(s) that I don't care for. I agree with Jetmoo when it comes to liver - it sucks.

With that said, I'll go just a bit further. There are four words that have sent me to the hospital on more than one occasion.
Yes, you read it right - four words have sent me to the hospital, clinging to life,on more than a dozen occasions. Those words? "Slash don't like beans."
Here's how it works.
It was discovered early on in my childhood that I was deathly ALLERGIC to most every type of bean or pea there is (with the exception of green beans and green peas) I can get away with garbonzos (aka chick peas).
My sensitivity to black-eye peas was such I could not be under the same roof when they were cooking (usually in a pressure cooker). Basically, it triggers a histimine reaction that causes my airway to constrict, the lining in my eyelids swell causing them to 'flip', blisters on the roof of my mouth, fattening of lips, etc.
Basically, it's a big ******fuckin' mess that requires hospitalization and a night of fuel injected Benadryll and oxygen.
As I have aged, I have built up a tolerance to some degree but I am not completely free of the effects that beans bring me.
Now, as I have said, words have sent me to the hospital.... This happens on occasion when I have interacted with people who don't give a ****shit what I have told them - it starts out as a ******fuckin joke - "Haha! Yeah, Slash we're ALL allergic to beans! Yuck-yuck-yuck!" (insert farting sounds here).
Then what follows are what I call "improper reminders." This is where some people might be cooking up some Chilli and I would request a portion of it without the beans -
Pick them out -
You can't pick out what has been cooked in, and people fail to realize that beans have oil (the very molecule I'm allergic to).
And then another person would say, "Slash don't like beans." So now, my problem becomes a matter of "taste."
So, since it becomes a hassle to deal with the nuances of food at this level, it now moves into the challenging stage -
"Hey, I bet I can fix them beans up in such a way that he don't notice - he won't taste the difference."
You know....the fact is....you're right. But, the fact that I'm still allergic to the damm things doesn't keep me safe from your game plan to kill me.
Do I like or dislike beans? I honestly don't know. All I know us what they do to me. Left to my own choices, I leave them alone (obviously). But putting my faith into other people....I sooner starve to death first.

Best snacks I ever had were cubes of beef liver wrapped in bacon and baked.

I say snacks because I can't spell or derve. Ors devours. Whatever.

ignorance is a killer. This is a main part of my life right now. Different story to yours but I can relate to the ignorance. Itโ€™s frustrating. I honestly wouldnโ€™t mix with people like those. I wish I didnโ€™t have to mix with ignorance but have to fight with them.

You stay away from those people now, right? I canโ€™t stand ignorance that puts others in danger. They abused me when I was in hospital, so did medics. Thereโ€™d be no words to express the frustration at the danger they put you through. Others put me in danger too in different way.

I think I might have a touch of PTSD.. maybe...

Oh sorry for side tracking the post.
