Interesting Combinations (3/10/09)

Foods we have seen and/or tasted:
1) Pizza with lamb and pumpkin (just saw)
2) BLT – the B isn’t really bacon, it’s “Canadian bacon”/ham (tasted)
3) Bacon and Cheese “Big Uns” – big huge “cheese-puffs” in the shape of giant Os or triangles. Smell and slightly taste like bacon-flavored dog treats (tasted, unfortunately)
4) Lamb and mint potato chips/crisps (just saw – we’re not that crazy!)
5) Chili and sour cream potato chips/crisps (tasted – kind of like chili con carde, not chili peppers. Pretty good. Btw, we’re not CONSTANTLY eating chips)
6) Diet Coke that you buy at restaurants or even “take aways” are glass bottles, not plastic. And it doesn't REALLY taste like DC. Kenn's bummed :(
7) Mince meat pie: We ate this at the Shantytown. It wasn’t bad. It was the size of a small tart. It was made of potatoes and minced meat. Not bad.
8) As an aside, we have been eating a lot of international/Asian foods which seems very popular here (maybe because it is close by?): Japanese, Indian, Thai, Burmese. Where are the hamburgers!?!
