Wow...I have heard all about truffles but never tasted one. They are so incredibly expensive, yet the look like dog turds. What gives? :rolleyes:

It's hard to describe.

Truffle-info (http://www.trufflemarket.com/cgi-bin/market.pl?truffle_facts.htm)

They are indeed expensive, but still cheaper then for instance pot.

And when you taste something prepared with truffle.........

Just incredible.....

give me a bowl of fresh, juicy, sweet strawberries... with cream... ;) :)

that'd do it everytime... :) :)

[Ella]

OK...so it's one of those things ya just gotta do, hey? :rolleyes:

I would love to say I spoil myself but I've been on the Atkins and very sugar deprived. But I love white Lindt balls. They are just sex in a wrapper...http://www.bulkfoods.com/pictures/2087_white_chocolate.jpg

I hate to say this, don't want to put you off your food Yogi, but I agree (in a way) with Ella about how they look, for the price you'd expect them to be shaped like a woman's body lol ;) As long as you enjoy them though that's all that really matters :)

@ Ozbabe - Hell yea, Strawberries with cream (or ice-cream) are delicious!! :) I alway's sprinkle some sugar on them though to add a little bit more sweetness to them, really make's the mouth water then :)

One other thing, of the top of my head, I really enjoy are Kebab's, unhealthy as all hell but damned nice lol :) I can hardly ever afford them or Strawberries though, perhap's once a year :(

Sniper. (Feeling hungry now lol)

Sniper hon... if you leave them til they are a rich red... then they dont need sugar... :) and... ive been having a bowl of them every night for the past 2 weeks... wanna share mine?.. ;) :* :wub:

;) This doesn't happen often, but when I really want to spoil myself (food wise) I have a bowl of ice cream with chocolate topping and sliced up bananas and whipped cream. Totally decadent and yummy, and all too rare!

Me putting off my food?? Haha..

When you visit a hooker, you pay much more and you get less...........(i think:"> :"> ...........)

That one truffle gives me pleasure for at least a week........http://www.mcbriens.net/liam/img/smilies/yummy.gif

I allso makes my girlfriend very happy, and you should see what she is like when

she's happy........http://www.mcbriens.net/liam/img/smilies/w00tdribble.gif

It's just one of those things you should try at least once........

Probably fatal, but worth it.

I doubt i'd be able to leave them that long, when i've got thing's like that in the place it tend's to dissapear fast as I can't help but finish food off when I start eating something lol ;) (And, despite how much chocolate and stuff I eat sometimes i'm still only 11 & 1/2 stone! :) )

I'd love be there sharing them together ;) :wub:

@ Yogi - Wonder's just how much of that hooker comment is speculation heh ;) You say "When you visit a hooker, you pay much more and you get less...........(i think:"> ...........) " but it could be the opposite if not careful i'd imagine, such as getting something which would require some embaressing visit's to doctor's, or even a child support agency on your door step wanting a blood sample!! rofl ;)

Blood sample? They do DNA testing here. And if the man is found to be the father, he pays the $700 odd bucks for the test. Fair 'nuff too.


Edit: Sorry for digressing.....another weakness is these....hhmmm..... :wub:

last week... i took about 30 huge strawberries... melted chocolate... dipped the strabs in them... put them in the freezer for about 30 minutes... then built a totem with them... and left them to get really set in the fridge... they were heavenly...

i might even do that again this weekend... ;)

of course im happy to share... :* :wub:

:blink: I Never Spoil Myself...I like Currys Though :blink:

[UKMan]

Apart from the occasional really expensive piece of rump steak, i very rarely spoil myself foodwise - BUT, i do buy a nice bottle of something to wash down my din dins if i&#39;m feeling deppy. Instead of the usuall vodka i mean :P

I enjoy my food anyways, i take an awefull amount of time eating it - up to about an hour and a half - especially if i have company.

Ice cream is nice occasionally, apple-crumble pie - yummy ;)

Peace

[ang3968]

I love apple crumble&#33;&#33;

[DarthInsinuate]

i spoil myself with a nice steak (medium) or a doner kebab is equally gut filling

[j4y3m]

I Would Eat Kebabs Evertday...But I Can&#39;t Afford It :(
