Even with PT high cholesterol is an issue. I have seen some pretty fit guys get taken down by bad cholesterol.

Grits are great, add butter, salt and pepper. Makes an excellent breakfast.

Holly, yours sounds good too.

I have seen it many times in the RAR Mess, and eaten it, once.

That was enough.

I have had many chances to sample that nasty stuff, I used to party with the Aussies in VN, and it was prevalent. We spent 30 days in Australia a couple of years ago, it didn't smell any better then than it did back in the mid 60's.

Terry

My neighbor when we lived in St. Louis was an Aussie. They would always have little packs of it kind of like the jelly packs from Denny's.

Ignore the smell!

Solid:

That's what we used to tell the guys in VN, who had to take the 55 gallon drums of human shit to the perimeter, pour JP-4 on it and set it on fire.

Didn't work for them either.

Terry

ROFL!

Solid's right- It's only really good for toast and in small doses. It tastes like crap when it's in a sandwich.

That's the Aussies for ya. Not a Kiwi food, I'll tell ya that.
No no, we're responsible for the crime of Marmite. I could puke on that shit.

Oh well. Guzzle a bottle of hot sauce and you won't be able to taste it anyway.

Brew Sir, very true! Got to watch out for bad cholesterol, it can follow you around like bad hair.

Dan, how very funny you are. (wink here)

Strange, it is 3am around here, and I am typing about "grits". Insomnia is a very bad thing. :)

Dan, you've obviously never spent a few days in Irish B&B's if you dislike fried tomatoes for breakfast. That, several varieties of bangers, fried potatoes, thick cut bacon, slabs of soda bread toast spread thick with creamy butter and lots of tea to wash it all down. The local pub here even offers this as a meal, although the tea is replaced by pints of your stout of choice.

Not so sure, Razor. I've spent enough time in England to know that I don't like tomatoes for breakfast (nor, really, for anything else, including diced, fried green, or on cheesburgers). But to be fair, the -rest- of the breakfast sounds like the heat. Especially with the pints added.

As for cholesterol, hell, I'm still young enough that I think I'm invincible. :D

Back to the Topic at Hand, Does anyone know of a Place where one could get SOS if one were so inclined? Waffle House, IHOP, Denny's? Preferrably a National Chain as I am a Lowly Civ. and not able to dine in the Fine Military Establishments.

Plenty of places, but they usually call it "creamed, chipped beef." I doubt it's on any national menus, but it is not terribly uncommon in greasy spoons, particularly in the Northeast.

This Does Me No Good

Right, I got the Creamed Chipped Beef Part.

Have to go check out the Greasy underbelly of the Local Restaurant scene.

I guess I have drifted away from standard greasy spoon type restaurants and now prefer Low budget Mexican, Will have to shift Gears.

You or anyone else from the South. My Dad loves that stuff, but I think it's nasty. It's like Yankee biscuits and gravy. Substitute white toast for the biscuits, remove the pepper, and substitute lots of little beef chips for the sparse sausage chunks. I love biscuits and gravy, but I hate SOS.
