So much for almost-raw red meat
by Elouise
So much for almost-raw red meat
And smashed sour cream-y potatoes
Or slices of luscious smooth
Spiced pumpkin pie topped with
Mounds of real whipped cream
Followed by unlimited spoons
Of yummy peanut butter straight
From the bottle into my mouth
Or thick slices of hot-off-the-grill
French toast drowning in butter
And swimming in maple syrup
Or those so-called health food bars
Slathered with creamy sugary icing
And held together with the goo of
Smashed dates or sticky caramel
And how could I forget fatty strips
Of sweet fried bacon beside boiled white
Grits gleaming with butter from real milk
Topped with generous shakes of salt
and maybe a few turns of the pepper mill
Written immediately after finishing my super-healthy breakfast smoothie. No, I don’t crave all those things. I haven’t eaten most of them for decades. However, I do enjoy feeling deprived from time to time!
Cheers!

I don’t get those things either, since I try to eat in a mostly healthy way, but boy, did this make my mouth water!
