DUmmy fizzgig, with her freshly shaven head, tokes up about an ounce of legal weed before getting the munchies for soup:

5. looks like potato leek soup

Of course, any mention of soup around the DUmp is going to catch the attention of the DUmp's Soup Queen, DUmmy NJCher:

6. peach bellini salad

Has field greens, crystallized almonds, and roasted peaches in it.

Fish tacos that I'm ordering from a nearby restaurant that does them so well I can't compete.

cbayer, thanks for the chayote recipe! Pear-cuke sounds like a good flavor to me. I saved in my recipe file under chayote--cbayer's.

12. Escargot in garlic butter, cucumber, cheese and bread. Grapefruit for dessert.

What is this?  Is this democrat underground or 1%er underground?  These DUmmies sound like they're living pretty high on the hog.

     As usual, they write what they'd LIKE to eat for dinner, not what they're actually eating for dinner.

11. salisbury steak with mushroom gravy

......served with a salad of Trader Joe's baby power greens, red bell pepper, English cucumber, diced red onions, blue cheese crumbles, and a vinaigrette. Also noodles for those who can handle the carbs.
 
Dessert: brownies and home made fresh strawberry marshmallows.

Yeah, yeah, Judy, sure, sure.



Actually, Delmar, sir, I'm sure that at least half the time, the primitives are making up things about what they're having for supper, so as to impress the others, and us.

The greatauntoftriplets primitive, for example, a sort of prominent Andyite nine years ago during the Scamdal, and a pal of the hypochondrial mopinko primitive, has badly-fitting false teeth, and can't possibly munch on half the things she alleges to.

     She's probably gnawing on stale poptarts while she sits on the toilet.

Barf.  I have hundreds (if not thousands) of escargots running around my yard.

Don't ever go outside at night without shoes on. crunch, crunch, crunch

[fatboy]

Is it me or does that bowl of soup NJCher has looks like vomit?

     It's hard to photograph soup in a way that makes it appealing; it is doubly hard when it's DUmmy soup and looks for all the world like it's already been eaten.

What's for supper grandpa........anything but DUmmie food.

[GOBUCKS]

Actually it's a good eurotrash dish. Kind of like nigiri sushi, it's just a little outside the range of what Americans usually eat.

They're hard to find on menus here in red state hell, but we were on a cruise not long ago and I was happy to find them available in the main dining room.

They bear no resemblance to the slimy critters in the backyard.

Well, yes, it does.

You are face-to-face with DUmmy NJCher's notorious puke stew.

I've only seen one person I know order them and she's Chinese.

If you can eat snails, can you eat those giant banana slugs too?  They look more like a meal.

I've had good escargot once.  It takes like beef cooked in lots of butter.

      Look, any protein is good when you slather it with as much butter and garlic as they put on snails. As for this "escargot" shit, the DUmmy only said that because they still have this idea that escargot is the ne plus ultra of dining. Maybe in NYC in 1975, DUmmies, where your minds are all mired.

[GOBUCKS]

That's pretty much true. Whenever I've had escargot they've been nearly submerged in melted garlic butter.

     I Am a DUmmy's Thought Process:

     "Oh, crap, you mean I have to say what I'm having for dinner? Damn. I have no plans, and I JUST posted about being a ninth-generation
vegan who has exactly 42 cents to last until payday. I was going to eat another few inches off of that monster sub that I stole from the break room at work. The mayo on that thing is starting to turn, but thank Goddess I have it. I can't say I'm eating that, though! What to do? Well...better grab out the obscure French cookbook I stole from that freeper yard sale. Hmm, let's see. Duck. Duck rillettes. Let me think that through. Oh, here we go, duck confit. Confit...let me see. That's when you cook something in its own fat, like Limpballs does. Duck confit. No, wait: duck leg confit, shredded. But shredded over what? Oh, I know! I always claim to love fennel, so I can say something like, 'Confit of duck leg shredded over fennel salad.' Oooooh, classy. And French, with just enough California flair. That'll get me a couple of admiring PMs. Now, for the wine. Has to be artful. Red? Goes with the duck. But there's fennel salad, which begs for like a Sauvignon Blanc. Or a Riesling. Ah - there it is. A Gamay. Now THAT'S ****in' CLASSY.  As for dessert, I guess it'll be chocolate mousse, but I need a twist. Something haute. Ah, I've got it."

     Eh, just going to toss together something. Like confit of duck leg over fennel salad with a glass of Beaujolais. For dessert, I'm thinking I might whip up a Valrhona mousse.

Who knew. I spent my childhood riding a damn tractor all damn summer long mowing the dog fennels out of the pasture. If Fennel wasn't good enough for cows to eat, it ain't good enough for me.

[fatboy]

Well, yes, it does.

Thank the Good Lord that I'm not the only person here who thinks that DUmmie NJShit's Dinner looks alot like yesterdays lunch.

[ColonelCarrots]

I've been on a diet and practically been eating rabbit food. It's training for my infiltration of the DU. I even did a little self-loafing!

[franksolich]

I dunno about anybody else's imagination, but to me, it looks worse than that.

It looks as if someone had a bad case of diarrhea, and didn't flush the commode.

It's just absolutely vomitous.

[JohnnyReb]

So, while DUmpster diving for food, DUmmies sometimes find the menus from fancy restaurants.

[Dori]

This is from today's "What's for dinner".

Nothing exciting there, but this one caught my attention

9. Tuna pizza.
 

With sautéed mushrooms, capers, and pesto.

I love pizza, so would someone do this?
