We are Food Connoisseurs
I am from the Midwest
We eat our cattle while they are running
Condiments?
Ha!
I scoff at that
Rabbit stew made of their feet
We allow them to hop around on their other paws
We are not unkind, just because we are carnivores
I am a sweet eater
My husband used to leave my sweets alone
Times have changed
Is it our age?
Unsure, but now we fight over the chocolate donuts and twinkies
We are salt-lovers too
Do not care if it is good for us, it makes us happy
Gives us the thirst we need to devour our bubbly sweet soda pop
Both of us turn up our noses at vegetables unless it is a potato
Or a sweet corn slathered in a vat of butter with salt and pepper
We are food connoisseurs; we only eat what tastes delicious
Not calorie counters
Choosy eaters? I laugh
