Hmm that is new to me too) Although it could be that I don't have a
particularly sweet tooth and so I don't look for such things

Why not try? Doesn't take a lot of equipment and the nice folks on

We have a Ponderosa lemon tree that is very prolific and I'm thinking of
trying some lemon marmalade this fall.

If that's a method of vending fries (as the lack of capitization of the
phrase indicates) from a wagon, I'm not aware of it here in the Los
Angeles area. I don't think I've ever seen poutine on a menu, either.

This talk about candy and fruit makes wish I had some of my faves on hand
-- the chocolate candy sticks with the center that is a gel of either
raspberry or orange. TJ's has those with high yummosity at four bucks for
a one-pound container.

Most of the ones that I have seen are a converted van or bus but the
name is now a generic so that you see permanent structures

Mobile Chip Wagon (At least in theory
http://www.usedottawa.com/classified...rant-equipment

Permanet structure but still called a chip wagon
http://ottawa.kijiji.ca/c-housing-co...QAdIdZ25881659

Due to the local weather most are only open 5-8 months of the year but
they are generally accepted as having the best chips one can buy. Most
of the ones I know cut their own fries; in an emergency, as you wait.

I don't think I've ever seen poutine on a menu, either.
Well that is perhaps a local 'delicacy'. Great for weight watchers
though: One can watch one's waist expand as one eats.

I was thinking that the coconut being the seed inside the

Yum, coconut. My favorite coconut treat is a frozen Mexican confection
called paletas, they resemble ice cream bars. It tastes like they shred
coconut, sweeten it, shape it into bars and freeze it. They sell them in
Texas, but I am trying to avoid them. You can not have them on a low
carb diet.

Heh.

I don't think it counts as a true nut either. Whatever it is, I adore

No, if anything it is a nut, with a hard shell and the "nut meat" inside.

It's not a nut. It's a drupe.

No, that brown hard shell is actually the inside seed or nut or
whatever? The outside is removed before you see the whole inside part.
That's why I assumed it was a fruit.

That's a reasonable assumption, and I'd totally forgotten about the

I think people will go to PB&J restaurant's if they have kids and want
to please them when running errands. At Scottsdale Fashion Square in
Scottsdale, Arizona there is a PB Loco that caters to this type of
consumer

My daughter swears by this peanut butter concoction: french toast
smeared with melted semi sweet chocolate chips and spread with peanut
butter - it is her new favorite breakfast (she is 16 years old). Maybe
she's on to something.

No, seriously it sounds good. I wouldn't eat it, but I love all the parts.

I would try them, but I wouldn't pig out regularly. I absolutely LOVE
open faced sandwiches of peanut butter topped with marshmallow fluff
and run under a broiler, but I don't eat them even once every 5 years.

LOL! Oh, one more step - toast your bread lightly before applying the
PB.

Oh my, of course!
As a kid, I used to put peanut butter on toast and sit savoring it. One
day my dad picks up my toast and takes a bite. He's savoring it....

Dad: "How'd you get the peanut butter so nice and smooth?"
Little Goomba: "I licked it!"

He learned to check out the toast for knife marks after that I think?

We (in the trade) call that "hermetically sealed".

Wondering how long *that* realization took?

Remember -- moderation must be done in moderation.

That and Boron Elgar's satay version sound worth trying! It's
snowing here, so I might even amuse myself with that later
today. (Don't have to go out to get ingredients.)

My kids like PB&J sandwiches made with toaster waffles instead of bread.
My daughter will occasionally use Nutella instead of peanut butter,
and sometimes my son wants brown sugar instead of jelly, especially if
there's time to run it under the broiler. It's no worse than a lot of
junk foods and better than many.
