Does GNC carry "worm water" yet?

No clue what worm water is, though.

If you go fishing and use up all your blue worms, then what you have left over is worm water. Drink it and you'll lose 6 pounds in two days, guaranteed.

I made chicken mole (mo-lay) for my son’s Spanish class that was chicken cooked in a spicy bbq-type sauce with dark chocolate melted into the sauce. My first thought was ‘Gross!’ when I read the recipe but it was *very* good. The chocolate made the sauce richer and...deeper somehow, if that makes sense.

I'll pass on the worm water, thank you.

Personally, that would probably go down easier for me than bananas.......I don't do bananas. YUCKY.

I think the Aztec's perfected this delicious spicey combination.

If you like chocolate, and you are in a good chocolatier, look for Lake Champlain Aztec chocolate. It is fantastic! 55% cocoa content with cayenne, pumpkin seeds, and cinnamon ... the spices add a delightful tingle to the rich chocolate, similar to your mole. This could be a new diet trend.

I’ll try almost any plant material but am much pickier about eating things that previously moved under their own power.

“Her husband was overweight so Watanabe came up with a diet plan for him. Mr. Watanabe subsequently lost 37 pounds.”

And he subsequently lost another 135 lbs. when he divorced Mrs. Watanabe for putting him on this stupid diet and not cooking him REAL food. :)

They’re Japanese - they never ate real food.

I use chocolate in many spicy dishes the way I use vanilla in many sweet dishes. A dash of it blends and binds the flavors in a way that is hard to describe.

Dang. Morning banana sounds like a code phrase for an early morning quickie.

[Peace Is Coming]

bttt for when I’m in a banana mood.

BC street will never be the same once the girls start eating Bananas.....

[nw_arizona_granny]

LOL, and a bump.

[Silly]

A banana and glass of water for breakfast?

Heaven, sounds like heaven.

[nw_arizona_granny]

Thanks for the ping.

So you prefer, banana, a glass of water, and listening to Cole Porter.
