What did you have for dinner?

[The_annoying_one]

A medium steak with a few slivers of fried onions. Only ate about half though, since I still don’t feel well. 

[The_annoying_one]

Having McDonald’s again because time is a factor.

[Gemini]

Spaghetti with meat sauce, topped with a quick dusting of mozzarella cheese.

[Jman]

Slow cooker ribs, cornbread, and salad.  The slow cooker is a wonder if you know how to use it.  My tomato sauce is made with that.

You have got to be the biggest show-off in this thread. I love it.

I know how to use it, too. It was what I used to make those baby back ribs I had last week. Believe me, my friend. Slow cookers really come in handy.

Not for those of us who don’t know how to cook! I do want Jman and yourself to know I’m just kidding around with these “insults”, if it’s not obvious.

Oh, I know. And really, when it comes to ribs, all you have to do is season them, put them in the slow cooker (preferably one lined with a slow cooker liner), dump an entire bottle of barbecue sauce in there (because I've found that it works best like that), set it for either four, six, eight, or even ten hours (depending on your slow cooker), and go about your day. You'll have the most tender ribs not from a grill in your entire life!

I could never go full vegan. I love meat and dairy products too much. Now then, I can and have gone dairy free in consuming almond milk and frozen yogurt made with coconut milk. And yes, I did enjoy them. (But I've also had vegan cheese. That is an abomination, to say the least.)

I also should point out that I'm not knocking your dietary choices. I'm all for eating healthy. I just need to stick with what works for me, which is cutting out certain dairy products and as much sodium as I can while still eating some meat-based protein. (And doing my absolute best to avoid processed foods, which means cooking using all natural foods, when possible.)

Oh I could never be full-blown vegan either.  I just don’t like eating meat everyday because it makes me feel off, so I switch it up.

And you’re so funny, no need for that edit.  I know you’re not being judgmental.

Thanks for moving that over, eklipse.

I was experimenting to see if I could quote from another thread on my mobile - success!  It was a pain pasting it over but feel like I learned a new trick, lol.

BK has the worst chicken sammiches in the history of mankind. The nuggets are okay, though. That really confuses me…..

I enjoy the whopper but their nuggets suck. McDonald's nuggets are way better.

That reminds me. I need to get Popeye's blackened chicken sandwich again before they discontinue it again.

I was not aware they had one. I need to try KFC’s Double Down sandwich again….if it hasn’t been discontinued (again).

I have never had the Double Down sandwich, to be honest. Is it good? (And yes, sentences can end in periods. They can also end with an exclamation mark and a question mark. lol)

All I meant was I forgot to put a period on my sentence. 

As for the Double Down, my brother surprised me with one many years ago, but I had literally just finished eating, so I only ate a bite or two. I think it was pretty good, but that’s the one and only time I’ve tried it.

Ordered wings tonight 

[Gemini]

Had breakfast for dinner: A breakfast bowl.

[The_annoying_one]

Chicken fried steak with white pepper gravy, fried okra and 2 biscuits. And a mixed drink called Wake Me Up Before You SoHo (bourbon, iced coffee, espresso powder and whipped cream).

[Vela]

Layered black bean dip and tortilla chips.  Strawberry lemonade afterwards, cause that's a thing I apparently do now >.>

I’m actually on my phone right now. Laptop won’t reach my current bed while it’s plugged in. And this time, you ARE keeping me up. But it’s okay. Putting phone down….now. 😅

I stayed in all day because I haven’t felt well. Bad allergy day.

Just had a Hot Pocket and some chips tonight.

[Gemini]

I had some pizza from Little Caesar's. Now I'm going to get a milk shake. Because reasons.

This isn’t dinner-related, really, but this is my thread and I’ll post what I want.

 I just finished a glass of banana pudding flavored rye whiskey. Quite possibly the best drink I’ve ever had.

If either of us is able to get a hold of said whiskey, the other is traveling to the purchaser's home so we can try it together. That sounds awesome!

Ordered it at a small roadside Mexican restaurant. Not the smartest move, but nothing else on their very small menu looked appealing.
