Couldn't say it any better. Love both. Eat both often but mixing the two isn't my cup of tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 Is bacon involved. Bacon can go with anything, and it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of turkey bacon and bacon bits our house goes through in a given week would make farmers nervous. Always a healthy chunk on our salads.

I'm sure it's good but if you just called it bacon I'd say yes. When you added the groundhog part.....just won't work. haha. Had friends who grew up on farms in Northern Illinois. Groundhog, rabbits, squirrels,etc.....they ate it all but even I have my limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am down with a Reuben anytime. Probably my favorite sandwich but it's a dogfight with a good Cubano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostin76 Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 I like a killer salad with fancy lettuce. Raddichio is my current favorite lettuce (but apparenlty it’s not lettuce hen I look it up - fomr chicory family). It’s kind of bitter, but it plays really well with a creamy dressing. My wife makes fun of me, b/c I’ll always choose a salad with raddichio if it’s on the menu. That is if I’m not choosing fries - which is 90 percent of the time. Also a big fan of a simple wedge salad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a big fan of a simple wedge salad. There was a restaurant called Seven Continents at O'Hare back in early 80's. My Dad and I were flying down to Miami for my first official college football game (Canes vs West Virginia...Canes had Bernie and WV had Jeff Hostetler). Anyway....we had a delay so we went to get food and I got a wedge salad. Huge wedge of salad w/blue cheese in all it's glory and that was it. I remember it so well because I believe it was the first time I used a steak knife for a salad. I'm with you. Simple wedge is always good in my book.

FritzIam4IU Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 A short story for the group. Back when I was still actively teaching middle school I used to take a large salad every day for my lunch. One day in the spring, another teacher looked over at me and said "A head of lettuce doesn't stand a chance in your house does it?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
