Yeah, not that kind of Indian.
I read somwhere recently that curry spice(s) was originally used to cover up the tatse of meat of questionable quality.
And I forgot - BBQ! Nothing like smoking a tenderloin over hickory... *licks lips*
Quick BBQ tip - slather a fresh tenderloin with soy sauce; slice garlic and cut slits every inch or so, stuff slits with the garlic slices; marinate overnight in apple juice; and smoke over hickory or applewood for 4-6 hours. Food of the gods...

Yes, and in some bloody places *coughChristCollegeinTasmaniacough* it still is! I foolishly had some of College's curried chicken and it gave me food poisoning because they actually WERE trying to disguise the fact that the chicken was baaaad. So, now I don't eat curry. Bad memories.Drewcifer wrote:I read somwhere recently that curry spice(s) was originally used to cover up the tatse of meat of questionable quality.

College food sucks and it's overpriced. They don't give a fuck how the students are treated as long as they can gouge them for a few more bucks.

My college had a great deli but it was expensive. After I left they replaced one of the eating places with a Burger King.College food sucks and it's overpriced. They don't give a fuck how the students are treated as long as they can gouge them for a few more bucks.
I never tried dorm food since I lived at home.

College food *shudder*
Zaia, at least curry was a choice
I lived in the dorm my first year of college, and mostly all the cafeteria served was starch, in all its glorious forms..."rice with your 'taters?"
To make up for it, most of the fast food places delivered 24 hours. Nothing like a hot ham 'n' cheese and curly fries -- after a long night of studying the end products of fermentation -- delivered right to your door!

Yeah, my campus has a 24-hour McDonald's right next to it, complete with student discount!

Well, a choice of sorts. I'm not talking about college like in the U.S.; in Australia, it's College (with a big C), as in place-of-residence. Like a co-ed fraternity, sort of. Only there were about 140 of us. But we shared the dining room, the common hall, the pool room, the movie room, etc, so it was like a giant house. It was great. Except for the food.Drewcifer wrote:College food *shudder*

There were always just two choices for dinner, and one was only supposed to be for the people listed as vegetarians (occasionally you could sneak some veggo food, but not regularly). So, in other words, there really wasn't much choice at all. Blasted Aussies.

Same with Pizzas - they're American too.

Hey, I remembered Greek! And when I order Gyros, I pronounce it correctly and everyone looks at me like I'm stupid because I'm not pronouncing it the way they do. Argh. Ignorance.

I have a long time friend who is Greek and Rom.
I learned early on how to pronaunce it properly.
Just glad the Dad was Rom, otherwise I would probably be rabing about some form of Gypsy food.
