What you taste is not the same thing as being knowledgeable about food,
Mister Straw. You could have eaten nothing but oatmeal all your life for all
we know, and you've shared little to expand that expectation for us. So
yeah, that's a pretty ignorant statement but I am impressed with your high
opinion of yourself.

Yanno if we were to believe your theory then every human on earth who has
not died of starvation at birth is "knowledgeable" about food because they
have eaten food (clearly the logical extension of the theory you are
promoting here) then we would surely need some extra-grand superlatives to
describe someone who has actually studied and accumulated even a little
extra knowledge outside their basic surroundings, which in your case
probably amounts to living on McDoubles and QT sammies. You might want to
downgrade your base common denominator of expertise just a bit... or are you
saying your personal base level is superior to others? Or are you just
saying that you're in over your head but can manage to defend yourself with
ad hominems as necessary? And who says it's not you whose taste buds are
diseased, as well as lacking any well rounded knowledge of what passes over
them?


Let's try this again. This is a *cooking* group. Have you ever heard the
word "context?"


Have you paid this off yet?

table with a plate of a dozen cookies in the middle of it. The CEO takes 11
of the cookies, turns to the tea partier and says, 'Watch out for that
union guy. He wants a piece of your cookie.'"

No. They're not. I didn't specify *an* age for myself, I simply said
that I'm older than the median (and gave a lower bound of 38.1). As it
turns out, I am *much* older than the median and older than your sons.
However, no, I'm not quite as old as you are.


You should never assume that a poster you've never encountered before is
knowledgeable about your posting quirks (I'm surprised that none of the
foodies has called me on the "you and your ELK" bit - it is a bit of
college football group play on words by misspelling - since I never
explained it).

Wow, you guys are kind of anal-retentive in the cooking chatrum.
Do you also make fun of people who post from webtv accounts?

Anyone knowledgeable about food knows that if you taste raw flour in your
gravy then your meal was probably prepared by someone like you. How is it
that your knowledgeablilty didn't extend to understanding that the taste of
raw flour is cooked away in the roux stage? Have you ever even heard of
roux? And how is it that you know that those three things are not the only
inclusions in a good white pan gravy? Have you any idea how broad the taste
spectrum can be for "white gravy?" No?

Still with me? Or did you just hit overload?

Methinks your omniscience generator has a bad bearing...

Wait, son, back up. Look upstream in this post. You said you took it "pretty

You better go take your meds and lay down somewhere.


Yep, I'm certain that's it.


Your keyboard, snookie, not mine. Don't you have some other crossposted

Just curious, how long have you been using Usenet without a clue to how it

I've never understood gravy on fried stuff. Isn't it greasy
enough already? I put gravy on roasted chicken or
turkey.
