I started reading your Salt Tasting Room entry and found myself craving wine and remembering I had an open bottle in the fridge. I poured a glass, <BR/>started reading some more, then found myself craving food to go with the wine and ended up cracking open a can of smoked oysters which I ate ALL BY <BR/>MYSELF, with Triscuits! Dangerous blog, man! You should seriously have warnings at the start, like the parental discretion thing, but maybe "Potential Food Cravings May Be Elicited. Proceed With Caution." ;)"<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Wanda! Of course, now I have a craving for smoked oysters and Triscuits! Gee, thanks. :) I get the same effect when I read eGullet. Last time I read through a thread arguing the merits of various deli sandwiches in town (authentic Montreal smoked meat sandwiches, New York style brisket, etc.) and I couldn't rest until I went to Kaplan's Star Deli (on Alberni St., off Burrard) and got one of their Montreal smoked meat (flown in weekly) sandwiches on rye. Man, that was one big craving, but it was so good to satisfy it. The sandwich was wonderful. Tender meat, glistening with fat, piled high, it really feels like a huge indulgence. Also took home some of their yummy chopped liver for sandwiches the next day. Next time I'll remember to take a photo of my sandwich - food porn. Let's see how many Nancylanders have to go get their smoked meat fix after that! Evil! Guess reading the discussions on the forums is kind of like food erotica then (when they're not posting pics). Deli meats, chocolate...Sometimes cravings are always lurking just beneath the surface, and it just takes a little poke to unleash them.Dumpling-girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07060849077865638234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10521177.post-1153982337152453412006-07-26T23:38:00.000-07:002006-07-26T23:38:00.000-07:00What a great idea, Ken...the long table would be p...What a great idea, Ken...the long table would be perfect for a Nancylander meet.
