This heavily illustrated book is very difficult for Captain ILL, who is trying to eat healthy foods, to flip through. The Captain recently discovered something called a Boca Burger which seems to be a hamburger made out of sawdust rather than meat, and therefore containing far less calories. They are also cooked in a baggie in a microwave so lack the grilled deliciousness of the "Peppered Jamaican Jerk Burgers Normandy" or the "Spicy Sausage Burgers with Roasted Pepper Relish" contained in this book. Mmmmm! The Captain may have to go out to lunch today ...

I love burgers, particularly right off the grill. But we rarely have them because Bowlingwidow and I have a fundamental disagreement over what constitutes a good burger. She likes it cooked well done like a hockey puck while I opt for the medium rare (and yeah, even borderline rare) treatment. And no matter how hard I try to get things right and coordinate the process, I still manage to undercook her product. Which explains why we do things like chow fun.
Captain ILL has to agree with Bowlingjoe in this instance. The Captain's mommy would cook any and every kind of meat until it had the taste and consistency of leather. It wasn't until he was an adult that he learned that he liked steak and pot roast.
Chow fun is indeed fun to chow.
isn't amazing, how when you are in costco, all those food samples taste so damn good? then you get home and wonder how in the heck you thought you would eat 40 boca burgers. and like it.
Captain ILL never had a Boca sample, so he can't use that as an excuse. He has almost finished the box, but he probably wouldn't use the word "like" to describe the experience.
