      When fasting appeals to you as much as eating does.

      LOL. I'm not into fasting for myself but yes. I can see your point and chuckled with this one. :)

      Consuming a full stick of butter by yourself in one day doesn't seem odd.

      That greasy slick around your lips gives you away, @cstehansen, :p .

      Man. I'm still trying to psych myself up to fry them in butter, coat with caramel and eat as cereal. I don't know if I'll ever get there. If only I could forget they are pork skin! #mentalblock

      Those aren't skin though; those are just fat.

      Are they? That's actually really helpful. It's the skin thot that freaks me out!

      Never occurred to me someone would use anything but lard for making chicharrones.

      That is how my local fav Mexican restaurant makes them. But I do love the ones in a bag as well. Will have to see if any seed oil is listed on my bags.

      I'm going to need to go to the local carnceria and take a photo of the chicharrones con carne. Goddamn, they're delicious!

      Being within a couple hundred km of the Mexican border I have ready access to all the lovely pork belly I could ever desire (and a couple of Filipino places nearby if I want a delicious variant), but there's something to be said for DIY. I'll need to find a friend with a gas range, I think. Thanks, Alex.

      (I hope "Alex" is okay with you. We seem to be getting on a nickname basis.)

      You can call me babe, honey and even yaw LC. sistah. Can't be your beeatch, that title is reserved for me, for my long-suffering husband.... :lol:

      And just like that we've moved from nicknames to pet names. This being the LC group, maybe "honey", "sweetie", or "sugar" isn't appropriate.

      I think maybe "darlin'", said with a bit of a southern drawl works here.

      What is that blue thing that says "Dollar Bank" on it? It seems to be holding the bag shut before it got finished.

      When you think salami and cheese is a perfect breakfast choice.

      Or lunch or dinner, or maybe even a little mid day snack, because it is salami and cheese.

      when you regularly just suck on a pinch of coarse Himalayan salt

      I do that often, especially when fasting. Supposedly letting it melt in your mouth gets it into your circulatory system bypassing the digestive track. Some people have issues with it when they mix it with water.
