Freshly stomped and always too bitter

epicurean philosophy


Friday, February 13th, 2009

Last year, a culinary philosophical question was posed at work:

Considering food that is actually prepared (unlike cereals and what not), name a food that wouldn’t go with one of these pillars of epicurean wonder:

  • Cheese
  • Bacon
  • Ranch
  • Chocolate

I’m not sure anyone has come up with a viable answer as of yet.  Remember, when considering such things that you have to forgo your own culinary hang-ups.  For example, I’m not a big fan of Ranch, yet I have the understanding that it would be suitable to get your Ranch on with a burger.

Discuss.
