A beef with some chicken

I know I should post a link to a story here on Dining@Large when e-mails about it from two different people land in my inbox at the same time.

Chicken talk crazy.

That's a hacky headline. B>)

Then again I commited the following super-lame line to the infinity of the Web:
Sometimes food is not just a medium, it's the message, and a medium well done is rare.

For some reason I feel like I need to apologize the J. D. Considine. But I won't.

Puh. Puh. [hitting the mike with my palm] Is anybody out there?

This is my swan song. Sadly, I have odious family business in the Copper State for the next X days. My Sprint wireless service has no service there. I hate hate hate that place. Thank god for BG's constant support in a time of crisis. I'll be back when I'm back.

I'll miss you, Owl! What is the Copper State?

Posted by: Joyce W. | June 12, 2009 7:42 PM

The Copper State is Arizona. You'd think they'd have wireless out there, but I guess not.

Hopefully Owl Man, you get that business done and get back to Baltimore quickly.

Safe trip!

Owlie, I hope you are back soon, without too much suffering.

That chicken chain is obviously going for the RSS vote.

Raptor Man, we'll miss you. Watch out for those coyotes!

Maybe KFC should go whole hog and put chicken fried steak on the menu. P.S. Hope all goes well out west, Owl, and you're with us soon again.

I don't see what the beef is. Unless you're a strict poultryvore, having a bit of beef product shouldn't be a problem. Remember when McDonald's french fries really tasted good, lo those many years ago? They were cooked in beef fat. Gave 'em a different flavor than the cholesterol-free cooking oils the Health Police have forced upon us. Its about the flavor - you can get it naturally by using beef products or artificially by using long-name chemicals that make you think you're eating the real thing when you're not.

Owlie, hope you have a good trip out and back and conclude your business in the least odious possible way.

I just saw Top Chef Masters. Someone made chicken-fried strawberries.

What RiE said -- both paragraphs!

Owl Meat GoWestYoungMan,

Good luck. Come back soon.

Posted by: Laura Lee | June 13, 2009 7:22 PM

RiE, observant Hindus don't eat beef. Finding it in foods they don't expect it in can be shattering.

Posted by: Lissa | June 13, 2009 11:55 PM

Thanks, Lissa. As usual you are right.
