i hate the way the microwave makes last nite's macarooni and cheese taste.

skaorsk8 #3.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

forrestina #3.1.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

yeah leftovers are depressing, except for chile, aww that stuff gets better with age

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

no no no, chille is gross at any time and should NEVER be consumed...

malibu malibuOG 2001

ooooh chili is soo good. and a good bowl of wendy's chili on a cold service day just hits the spot like no other.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

ohh soo true...whoever decided to put that on salad is amazing

tinser #3.1.3 tinserOG 2002

who needs to reheat it...just get kraft easy mac....they come in small packages

forrestina #3.1.3.1 forrestinaOG 2002

tinser tinserOG 2002

easy mac is the best!!!!!!! I could live on the stuff

tinser tinserOG 2002

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003 fivezero

malibu #3.1.3.2 malibuOG 2001

but if its made for dinner the nite before and there's just leftovers that you gotta use up.

ooo, I know this! They threw meat on the engine of their car while they drove around, vegitables were tied to the tires, but if you wanted them steamed you had to dangle them in the exhaust

AND that explains why in the "good ole days" the planet wasn't as polluted (our food soaked in all the carcinogens and chemical waste products)...it also explains why people died at a younger age.

flomojopoanode #2.1.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

amazing. simply amazing.

oh, now it makes sense. the carrots would be plugged in the cigaret lighter, pasta would be reheated with the tiny lightbulb in the glove compartment

forrestina #1 forrestinaOG 2002

in the oven? i think the only thing i would heat up would be meat and i don't eat that anymore.

J
#1.1 jollycandymanOG 2001

yeah, but the oven would take so long

forrestina #1.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

but the food would taste better

skaorsk8 #1.1.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

that is true. food does taste better when not cooked in the microwave. but then, we are so used to having what we want RIGHT NOW that waiting seems ridiculous.

sugabluejennnie #1.1.2 sugabluejennnieOG 2002

they would just leave the oven on all day knowing that they would get hungry and want to put something in there
