Reference

I am not an avid fan of "How I Met Your Mother," but melady loves the program and our good friend Ruth swears by it on lonely nights with her cat... Well lo and behold, I caught the program upon my electronic television device last night and the entire story revolved around the search for the City's perfect burger...Here is the highlight"

"Just a Burger? Just a burger. Robin, it’s so much more than “just a burger”. I mean…that first bite—oh what heaven that first bite is! The bun like a sesame freckled breast of an angel resting gently on the ketchup and mustard below—flavors mingling in a seductive
pas-de-deux And then…a pickle…the most playful little pickle! Then a slice of tomato, a leaf of lettuce and a…a patty of ground beef so exquisite; swirling in your mouth breaking apart and combining again in a fugue of sweets and savor so delightful. This is no mere sandwich of grilled meat and toasted bread, Robin: this is God…speaking to us in food."

  1. My mind is in a state of gasm. I feel like I'm sleep walking into a cyclone of meats and cheeses. My teeth feel like they have sesame seeds mushed up into them. I feel my mouth watering, something about the words and the way they are put together....... who wrote this blurb?

    phantom OT meat is foaming at the mouth, this rarely happens.
