I said, "I don't think I can drink any more of this" as I
pushed a half full bottle of Budweiser toward the center of the table. Herself started rummaging through her purse, "What are you doing ?" I asked. She deadpanned, "I've been there for your biopsy, your operations and your chemo and I've never once been worried about you, but when you walk away from half a Budweiser it's time to call 911." Yeah, yeah, very funny. I had the beer cheese soup. "What on earth were you thinking ?" asked herself. "Terroir, when in Rome, yada, yada ..." I replied. "Do you know what's in there ?" she asked. "Sure, it's a balanced Wisconsin meal with all four of the major Wisconsin food groups, cheese, beer, sausage and cheese." Anyway, one of the qualities of beer cheese soup is its ability to fill you up. There is a chemical reaction when the enzymes in the cheese, sausage grease, and beer meets stomach acid that is not unlike the chemical reaction in the junior high volcano trick. One teaspoon of beer cheese soup will create enough greasy, gaseous, quick-hardening, semi-soft bulk to fill one mile of intestines. This is a handy trick if you are like many cheeseheads and have many miles of intestines hanging over your size 48 belt. If you are of more normal proportions, and you are stupid enough to eat the whole damn bowl the results are anything but handy. I got up from the table, slowly, grabbed the half bottle of Bud, just in case, and waddled back to the room to watch the last of the Cubs and Brewers game. That being the last night of vacation, I'm typing this at home. Time to take "wild dog of the north" out and teach her some hunting tricks. -- Ken Fortenberry |

Actually, that's weird - I just saw somewhere - like in the last day or two - the reporting on a study that says - and I admit it was just some report and I have no idea of its validity - that a component of the fat in red meats and dairy products actually has the opposite effect. Supposedly, the component "turns off" the "yo, asshole - you're full!" signal to your brain. OTOH, given the above and personal experience with similar, I'm not sure the study is all that accurate...at least in the real world...I mean, I'll put up a Tex-Mex plate against beer-cheese soup any day... TC, R ....and glad y'all had a bang-up time...both K and I send our best to herself...and herself, jr...well, to be fair, Tasha was the first to speak up herself, jr., but still and all, we send ours to her, too...WOOF! |
