So here you can post your favorite foods, or maybe just list the countries you like the foods from best.
Not really in a order since I am mixing countries and single dishes
1.American or Americanized - Anything unhealthy like burgers, hotdogs, or Americanized versions of things like I would get say at Taco Bell 2.Italian - I am 12.5% Italian and grew up with lots of Italian foods since my great grandmother was born there so I love things like raviolis, lasagna, pesto, etc 3.Chinese - I love the buffets most Chinese places do and the fact that I can eat alot without getting full. 4.Ice Cream - So bad for me but so good 5.Pizza - I eat way to much of it as it is, but I am addicted to cheese 6.Steak - Nice and bloody and oh so good 7.Cookie Dough - I got tired of having to wait for cookies to cook, but then I discovered the dough and will now just make dough to eat and like maybe 5 cookies

how did you figure out you were 12.5 % Italian? is their some kind of mathematical equation you could clue me in on.
I like pretty much all foods.... but then again i love cooking and experimenting on what herbs go best with what food.
but i love steak a nice big juicy slab of meat ohhh marinated in a red wine and mint then grill it with sauteed onions, green and red peppers then add a little bit of pepper and basil........im drooling just thinking about it. i love Mexican and south western food too
Chinese is OK but i think that i have a couple favorite places to go bu they are unfortunately in china town 2 hrs away and they wont deliver.
pizza is ok too but ive been having to much latley.

Yeah I want to go get a steak now, blast it all. Well the way I figure my percent is that my greatgrandmother would be 100 percent. She has a child who is my grandmother who is then 50. Grandmother has my mom who is 25, and then there is me. I could be wrong in how I did it but I think it works.

Pork Adobo is a Filipino cuisine that's garlic-y in taste. If that's the proper adjective for it It can also use Chicken if Pork is not suitable for Religious reasons (Filipinos are divided among Catholics and Muslims, Muslim house guests will not eat Pork). It tastes closely to the garlic mushroom steak without the gravy, and it uses pork or chicken. Ebisu is the Shrimp version of Tonkatsu but served with a variety of either rice and vegetables or something else. Honestly I myself don't know the difference between Ebisu and Tempura. But they seem different in the menu somehow. Lomi Noodles are like Egg Noodles. They have thick, long wheat noodles or egg noodles, with creamy vegetable soup doused with a mixture of mushroom, carrots, baby corn, and other healthy green thingies you feel could satisfy your taste. I'll try to come up with pics and recipes, my Mom always cooks it.

Thanks, Deon. Some recipes would be great, although I'm not much of a cook!

You guys are cruel, I am sitting here eating Carmel Rice Cakes. For some reason I decided to go healthy this week. Better late than never I guess.
Steak - knock the horns off, wipe it's ass and serve it up! but it must be scantily clad with garlic, salt and pepper and then smothered in mushrooms.
Just about anything Chinese, don't think I've tried anything I haven't liked yet. So yes Deon if you could come up with some recipes that would be awesome!!! I absolutely love that brown garlicky sauce but can never seem to make it taste like at the restaraunts.
My homemade spaghetti sauce. I love to cook but unfortunately it makes it hard to go to restraunts as my cooking is better than most of thiers. Guess maybe that's why I only usually do breakfast out or Chinese.
Portabello and cheese stuffed ravioli - again homemade.
Kringle - it's a Danish dessert - again homemade.
Area you and my daughter are two of a kind. Everytime I make cookies she is filching the dough. By the time the cookies are done she is sick of cookies! She does the same thing when I make noodles. Which I really don't get. Egg noodle dough is so bland but she can't seem to control herself, I have to stand guard over them till I put them in the soup or make the ravioli's.

So the sauce you are talking about for the Chinese food, is it the one that looks like soy sauce and has like green onions in it? If it is then what you do is find whoever makes it best and then ask to buy some. All the ones I have asked so far let you buy it. I bought like a gallon jug from the one I like best once and I put it on everything, marinated burgers in it, just drink some of it, etc.

No not that stuff but I like that too and that is a really good idea. I mean like the thicker stuff in like Happy Family or Garlic Beef, I think it is the same sauce just more garlic in it.

Could be, but yeah just ask them and they will probably tell you the name of it, and probably sell you some, maybe even give you a recipe so you can tweak it.
