There once was a place in Oklahoma City called Crystal’s Pizza.  I remember the whole place being stacked with faux antiques and statues and greenery.  And the pizza was fantastic.  Years later most of the cool kitschy decor had been dismantled and the pizza was a shadow of its former glory.

Pretty sure several of these were given negative reviews here, but somehow still ended up on the “best of” list.

I read “contacted by the Food Network while she was cooking under Wolfgang Puck” and immediately wondered why she would be considered a child of nepotism.  

Is it still being made there? Last I heard they lost a lawsuit and had to drop the product.

They get a lot of unearned credit by piling six pounds of limp fries in your bag.

My mama used to serve those maybe three times a year and I remember it as if we were being given a rare treat. Chances are the real reason was because they were cheap and we were broke.

Taco Bueno (mostly located in TX and OK) usually offer a tamale platter around this time of year.  I used to order them sometimes.

Great.  Now you have me craving Hormel Tamales in a can.

In the 80s there was a whole “thing” where you could get enormous blocks of government surplus cheese and/or butter for low low prices or for free.

I remember being warned, just before Superb Owl Sunday, mind you, that there would be major shortages of Velveeta cheese. Of course that would be a devastating blow to half-time snacks tables all over the USA. Later that same week, I visited a Wal-Mart and spotted a five-foot tall pallet display of Velveeta. Now I’m…

Yet ice cream floats are delightful.  This just seems like a scaled down float.

Please don’t ask me to watch a slideshow AND TikTok videos.

For me it’s the pork sausage.  If I get a patty that looks like he ones from McDonald’s or the ones that come in a Sam’s Choice bag, I’m out almost immediately.

I absolutely dropped a local diner from my rotation because they started giving only one piece of toast per order. And as COVID wore on, the eggs started being over cooked, the pork chops dry and tough. It was sad watching the place decline knowing that nostalgia was the only reason I kept going there.

My lady friend told me that Vietnamese Pho is often eaten at breakfast.  

makes Homer something something...

And god how I loved it.

I am here to call B>S on “red jello stuffing”. I am a native of the state and it is cornbread dressing all the way in the state. Just because someone searched for that term does not mean it is the most popular option.

I agree with your grandmother.  This particular website seems to attract a large share of food snobs.

I like to make sausage rolls with jalapeno-cheddar smoked sausages and the Hawaiian crescent rolls.  But I like mine a little more browned than the examples shown.
