Many years ago (circa 1970) Red Lobster would serve hush puppies as a
free appetizer with every entree... I think they were to fill you up
while you waited to be served because their small entree portions
wouldn't. That was the first time I had eaten hush puppies, was also
the last time... I'm pretty sure it was over cooked extra dry Stove
Top Stuffing mix made golf ball sized. If you ate two and had
something to drink they'd expand while they kept you waiting so you
could barely eat that small meal. After that first time I'd only
patronized Red Lobster when they had a special on all you could eat
Alaskan crab legs for $5.95, but that monthly special disappered in
about two years... I've never been back to a Red Lobster.
