I love Chinese buffets! Then I can have a bite of everything to see what it tastes like! (giggle) The local Chinese place even has crab legs which I also like.

Since I grew up by the sea, I'm used to eating lots of seafood, although lately I don't eat much fried stuff. I'm really not into oysters, but all the other seafood I really enjoy. I'm a pretty good cook, but when you eat out you don't have to clean the kitchen afterwards! (grin)

I don't eat too much red meat, even though I live on a beef cattle farm. I make a fantastic meatloaf, but other than the occasional steak, I'm not much of a meat eater.

Oh, and I'm probably the only one in the entire world who does NOT like chocolate! (giggle) Plus, any sweet stuff I enjoy is usually the stuff I can make at home.

I don't eat pork most of the time. My piggies give me sad looks if I do! And piggies are just the cutest things to love on, especially my sweetie piggie-pets! Since I do like ham as a lunchmeat, I always buy the turkey ham or I feel too guilty! (giggle) Speaking of turkey, another lunchmeat favorite, I just discovered sun-dried tomato turkey! Put on a fresh roll with fresh-grown tomato slices, that turkey and turkey ham make a wonderful lunch sandwich!

Hey Seaside,
nothing better than a pair of nice firm puds on a sunday afternoon.. Heaven.

Hey Op.
How could you!! garlic salt and plastic Parmasean. Hasve you got a blender? strip a couple of garlic bulbs of their skins, but them in a blender or magi-mix, add some olive oil and blitz until a smooth paste, store it in the fridge in a clean jar witha lid (jam jar will do) When you need it drizzle the paste over the chokes or whatever your making. Far better than garlic salt.

Korean food is the best! Also Hawaiian, Japanese, Chinese, some Filipino foods, and pretty much anything out of the ocean.

Wow! A fellow Norwegian (even though I'm an expat I'm still Norwegian) I'm not sure if they call them crab claws or crab legs, but they are very yummy. I was telling someone about lutefisk the other day. It's probably not my favourite, but I do love it, and explaining the yummyness that is lutefisk to a non-Norwegian is usually met with disbelief and a big 'yuck' LOL

I haven't tasted lutefisk! I know, I should have... but I really love klippfisk and pinnekjott!! What would christmas be without pinnekjott... I don't know!!

Holy cow! Actual meals growing around your house everyday...that's cool! My grandfather had a house in Naples, Fl right off the beach and the closest he came to that were Tangelo trees growing in his back yard...as big as canalopes! MMM those were SO yummy and juicy!!!

Oh yeah, artichokes ARE a definite acuired taste. Good thing I got my daughter to eat them as soon as she got teeth! She LOVES them now and pulls off all the leaves so she can eat the heart first!!! YUMMMIE!
I do put TONS of parmesean cheese in the stuffing for my artichokes, but yes, I use the grated stuff from a plastic can. LOL...and I dont use fresh garlic cloves, I actually use garlic powder, that way the garlic flavor is all over, not just chunks of garlic...I LOVE garlic but not enough to bite into chunks of it!

Hi Rockchick, small world. Yes it is a beautiful part of oz.

Artichokes are another acquired taste. Then there are Chokoes.
Horrible, green tastless lumps that are only good for making pickles out of.
Followed closely by Brussell Sprouts.Yuk

Hey Sale , my mum is from Port too !!
beautiful part of australia :)

Oh man OP .... you guys need more Artichokes and more SHEEP !!!! when i was in PA in 2002 I think I paid something rediculous like $30 for a leg of lamb ..... it has become a more expensive meat here but SHEESH $30 for a leg was a bit extreme, AND the trading dollar at the time from US to AUS was .50c, so in aussie terms it ended up being $60 AUS !! thats just craziness .... the dollar is a little stronger these days

Oh geez! Drooling all over myself here! LOVE CHOKES!

I grew up in Castroville, Ca and the house was in the MIDDLE of agriculture fields. We were NEVER hungry.

One side, Artichokes, the other side of the house...Strawberries. The back of the house, Cauliflour...the FRONT of the house, Brocolli.

We had peach, apricot, lemon and prune trees as well as figs, and cactus.

LOL...I miss that house!

Hey Op,
Yes used to do somthing similar, but we put shredded parma ham, Reggiano or good domestic Parmesan cheese, grated (don't buy it pre-grated, and don't use that stuff from the plastic box)couple of finely chopped scallions, couple of crushed garlic cloves
some Peccorino Romano cheese, grated in the mix too. open the leaves a little and put the stuffing in then bake / steam in a bain-marie for about an hour - hour and a half.
