My Mom has got you beat ... the little old lady could make a meal that the survior man couldn't eat. Here was her last creation when I went down to visit:

Boiled up a huge pot of noodles, she then boiled some broccoli in a pan and added it to the strained noodles.   Then she fried a huge pan of bacon, and poured the bacon, and the bacon grease into the bowl... so it was noodles, broccoli and bacon grease all together ...

Yum ... She is highly insulted if you don't eat. My buddie Garry was with me because we drove down to fix her sink. I learned a long time ago to take it really slow, pretend to enjoy it, spread it around the plate and she thinks you ate (smart huh). Garry on the other hand woofed it down like medicine thinking lets get it over with. Right away I knew it was a mistake. My mom said ... Oh dear have some more you are hungry. He politely said ... no ... I told my mom, he said he was starving he is just shy ... so wam he got another plate of the stuff that he had to eat.

On the way home he turned to me and said ... Dan, I am going to kill you !!
