I made tabbouleh yesterday. Had the gentleman friend taste it. 

He inquired afterward if I was trying to sneak some sushi into him? He has a mild sushi phobia and I have talked about introducing him to it (at a RESTAURANT, lol).

No, it didn't taste like fish. He's just like that.

2. I think he had the bulgur confused with rice, too. He isn't accustomed to culinary adventure, being a bachelor who lives on frozen crap thrown into the microwave (I'm working on that).

3. Reminds me of my friend's husband. When she met him, his claim to culinary fame was his "discovery" that "you can eat hot dogs right out of the refrigerator. You don't even need to cook 'em!"

4. you can, but you shouldn't

the liquid that coats hot dogs can carry listeria. I would never let anyone I care about eat a hot dog straight from the pkg.

I did that once.
Wiped and flushed, afterwards.
Sounds like patting little Mary/Johnny on the head for going poo-poo in the toilet.
I'll stick to lutefisk, if y'all don't mind. :-)

This is DUmmy grasswire, who was planning to bribe public officials to overlook code violations in the abandoned building she
planned for her fantasy pie shop. Free pie for corrupt politicians, the cost of which would be made up in the price charged to normal
people.

She's worried about hot dogs, manufactured by professionals in rigorously inspected factories, but would sell the public pieces from pies
made in a dirty, rat-infested hovel. The catbox dude was right. DUmmies are on their own.

Yuck.  I can't stand tabbouleh.  The DUmmies only make it because it makes them feel Muslim-friendly.  All it is, is those tiny, tiny pasta balls that get stuck in your teeth, too tiny to chew, chopped up parsley and lemon juice.  Just a big ball of sour.  No mouth feel, doesn't fill you up in the slightest.  Horrible.  I'm glad I'm not forced to eat Arabic food anymore.
