As many of you know, I am dating a vegetarian. As some of you know, I hunt. As a few of you know, there is hardly anything that holds a candle to elk backstrap in my book. But I have to come clean. Maybe it is that Ash Wednesday was yesterday that prompted it (not likely) but I must tell the truth.
I have found a vegetarian food that I love.
It is a burger from a restaurant in town, called the “fakin bacon burger” which has crisp provolone on a sunflower seed patty. I crave it. Now don’t get me wrong, this in no way replaces meat. (Especially not bacon). It is a food item unto itself. I’m pretty sure it would take cocaine-laced chocolate patties to pull me away from meat. Even though, jury is out.
I feel so much better now that that’s out there. Thank you for listening.
PS- what is it with me and thinking about cocaine in cooking?
