Guilty Food Pleasure...

I wouldn't have admitted that semi-publicly. Jesus that sounds disgusting, says the guy who would eat an entire tray of OnCor chicken parm.

 

Please be sure to tell when they start their good period.

 

I'd come home from school and eat an entire packet of baloney. Roll up a slice at a time, dip it into the mustard jar liberally, and chow down.

 

You're a freak. (I used to do it with mayo)

 

I thought this was a safe space!

After a quick search, apparently mayo and peanut butter sandwiches were a Southern concoction of the Great Depression era, started back when peanut butter was chunkier and unspreadable. The mayo was used to make it smoother. That makes sense given this taste for them came from my mom’s side, hillbillies from the mountains of Tennessee probably using whatever was in the pantry to feed their 12 children during the depression.

Mayo and peanut butter doesn't sound great, but the combination at least makes some sense, in theory. But throwing a pickle on there? We'll need input from @QYFW, a descendant of a southern Depression family, before we decide whether or not to exonerate you for consuming the aforementioned disastrous delicacy.

 

I like Eliminator more now than when it was popular.

 

This requires some explanation.

 

I liked it when it was current but now it suffers from comparison to their earlier work, of which I was largely unfamiliar when I was 13.
I guess it depends on context.
In the ZZ Top context = not good
In the context of what Genesis, Journey and other 'classic rock' acts were doing in 1983 = pretty good

In particular, Billy Gibbons' guitar tone doesn't sound as tasty to me on the album. The crunch sounds more processed and less organic.

 

I'd rather have peanut butter and ketchup.

 

Peanut butter and mayo both suck.
