Observation # 32 Love it or like it?


Two chili cheese dogs, two cheeseburgers, two orders of onion rings, turkey salad with French fries, a chocolate cake, apple pie, butter pecan ice cream, egg rolls, one peach, three Dr. Peppers, jalopeno peppers, ketchup and mustard. This is the last meal of Williams Richard who was executed in Texas.
     Capital punishment is a controversial topic. Neither the time nor the place. It does, however,  make me wonder what I would eat if I only had hours to live. When I asked several people, few himmed and hawed. They knew exactly what they would eat. The most common answer is a steak cooked just the way they like it. Chocolate cake is also a favourite.
I couldn’t answer and still can’t. What would I eat? I know a lot of things I wouldn’t eat. Peas for one. I would say flip the switch before I ate peas. Thinking about this really made me kind of sad. I don’t love food. I really like it alot but there isn’t one dish that I can decide upon. Its not that I have such a passion for food that there are so many dishes that I can’t decide. I don’t think I have had that one dish that stopped me in my tracks. Nickelback is for people who like music but don’t love it. I am a Nickelback eater. I think that people who have a passion for food don’t eat fast food or cookies or chips. Do you think Gordon Ramsey would eat at Taco Bell?
