What are you having for lunch today?

Do describe! I've had a bit of a hard time finding hearts of palm recently.

@TheHorse Lettuce, tomato, cheese, bacon, tomatoes, cucumbers, and dressing. Very good.

You ate only that? No bread with it? What is shawarma..

@DaddyEvil So which one is the meat, the yellow one, or the orange pieces?

@DaddyEvil Bell peppers look like that? Blink. Ours look green...that is they are capsicums. See, I don't know anything about your world. LOL

Isn't that too little? I don't understand Americans.

@vandana7 A pint of soup is too little.?

@TheSojourner - My father is 88, he drinks 1/4th liter tea in the morning, then breakfast, which is 4 idlis, then at 11.30 1/8th cup ensure, then at 1 pm 1/4th cup soup, then at 2.30 lunch which just has some rice and some vegetable preparations, two usually, and ends it with curds and rice. Then a banana. Then around 5.30 again another 1/8th cup ensure, then 7 pm, 1/4th cup tea, then at 9.30 pm, we have our dinner, which he eats only one chapati, but one egg, and some vegetable and some rice and curds. Finally, an apple a day to keep the doctor away. I drink less tea, and do not drink ensure and soup. Rest of my diet is pretty much the same, except that I eat more rice, and in the night two phulkas instead of one. He eats non veg, I don't, not even egg.

Did both satisfy?

@TheHorse — totally and arbitrarily!!!!!!

@FourWalls Phew...you sounded "normal" eater. If Pony eats only that, I wonder how he controls his anger.

Satisfying? What kind of cheese?

What is "manti"? I'm not sure that I've ever had Turkish food.

@TheHorse They are like dumplings. It's dough filled with lamb. They are usually big and I think steamed. This one had small ones and they weren't steamed and were in sauce.

@TheHorse The last number of Turks and their descendants living in Germany is from 2021. The number is: 2.747.000. The first Turks were hired in the 1960s to help boost German industry. Many worked in the coal mines.

What is dill? Is that all you eat for dinner? How do you get energy to do the day's work then?

@vandana7 Dill is an herb. How do I get the energy? I'm solar powered.

@BarBaraPrz Our sun god runs away from you all. But seriously, I really cannot believe you all eat so little and are still so energetic to do so many household chores.

My kinda person. While I don't eat meat, I cannot eat only one thing. I need a lot of food.

@vandana7 My menu simple, & glad you like it! Guess va vegetable dish, instead of hot dog!

@oahuwriter Yeah...these people eat so little...make me feel like a glutton. Evil Grin.

What is the local equivalent to KFC? Russians have developed alternates to KFC and McDonalds, after all, Russians who worked in these chains know how these fast foods are made. With slight variation they can claim it to be their own product.

@vandana7 We have KFC, McDonalds, Chicken Treat, Burger King, Hungry Jacks - all much of a muchness.

@vandana7 Are you sure? I would assume that the "secret sauce" atop a Big Mac is sent in vats to McDonalds.

I wanted to ask you that. You attended Rath yatra? You should upload pictures. :)

@vandana7 The time when I attended in the 90s there wasn't a smart phone and was not carrying my camera. So I can't load the pictures.

I agree. That meal looks really dangerous. And helping way too small. I definitely will not go to California to eat the meal Pony promises me. Imagine, he would be staring at how much I can stuff into me.

@vandana7

No Ramen on the side?

@TheHorse It's up above in the cabinet

Did it do the job?

@TheHorse Yes. I don't have a good appetite. I will have an ice cream soon.
