Washing Dishes
Submitted by ClarkT on October 31, 2008 - 13:09.The worst thing about washing dishes for six hours is that your hads smell like food for several days later. The best thing about washing dishes for a Bar B-Q place is that yous hands smell like the Bar B-Q food.
Vermont Politics

Politics and food, they say,
Are the fodder of our nation
That lack of one, or both, suppose,
Could cause mental aberration.
So in a tiny, rural town
Like my beloved Jericho,
There are married to each other
In an event quite apropos.
It shows, without a doubt,
The character of our state
We get right down to the point:
With “Crackers, cake, and candidates.”
Eat at Joe's
Submitted by Logan_B on October 3, 2008 - 08:42.I love this stuff. God it is so good!
I don’t even have to knock on wood.
I get the same thing,
Each time that bell rings.
I wish this place looked like it should.

American Folly: Food/Drink
Submitted by perspiciens on August 9, 2008 - 12:50.I feel
Like a stupid
American
Sitting here
At the computer
Eating:
Microwave curry
With a fork
Drinking:
Cherry Coke
From the 2 liter bottle
Planning on:
Eating Sour Cream and Onion Chips
From the bag
And
Oreos
Later on
Why does this sound so
Je nes sais quoi
...
American?
Standing at the Pantry
Submitted by tilyon2393 on April 29, 2008 - 19:13.I stand there at the pantry door
I’ve had my meal, but I want more
Today it’s simply not my goal
To eat just mushroom casserole
Maybe some extra smooth peanut butter -
Mom threw it out; there was too much clutter.
I could have a cup of rich gelato –
No way, it’s flavored avocado.
How about a banana, with peel so gold?
No, all the fruit is growing mold.
Really? Even the luscious low-calorie limes?
Try one, but you’ll have to wipe off a layer of grime.
Oh no, I say. Maybe cream of wheat?
No, non-instant oatmeal is now obsolete.
In the fridge, I saw some apple pie…
Wait, we’re saving that for the Fourth of July.
There’s a couple of sodas in the garage…
No, I was wrong. That was just a mirage.
What about cake with chocolate icing?
It’s Grandma’s fruitcake - not enticing.
It appears I’ve been denied.
I return to the table, unsupplied.
It’ll be a while, I have a hunch
Before I can eat a decent lunch.

Super Powers
Submitted by Harlan Hopkins on October 3, 2007 - 07:52.I wish I could have super powers it’s so hard to choose there are so many cool super powers that anyone would love to have. It’s very difficult to decide. I guess a cool power would be the power to create food. I mean food that I can literally make appear out of nowhere and any food I want.
