Fish Sandwich and Sanka (from a fan!)

This post is long overdue. Hats off to an Eat Me Knoxville megafan, Jason Cosby, for documenting his awesome lunch back in early August. And as point of reference, I've had the fish at he and his lover's abode before and it is mighty fine. This is his photo essay for the folks of Eat Me to enjoy! Fried fish planks, onions and sanka equal one amazing hot lunch.
Don't forget to blot the grease off for a healthy treat

Always cover any exposed wounds

Never accidentally use Miracle Whip

You can never have too much mayo


Sanka and hot pepper sauce set this lunch off

The glorious end, or is it just the beginning....?

Dinner for One

So today's 15 hour work day yielded an unsatisfying paycheck and an empty belly, until I realized I work the last 6 hours of my day in a grocery store! That's right, I can have my choice of gluten-free, fresh local organic produce, coconut juice and naturally flavored sparkling waters, yet I chose Chef Boyardee's Lasagna with chunky tomato and meat sauce. I'm not sure that I know what "meat sauce" is, nor do I care to investigate. I've made my decision, and it's awesome. I was feeling a tad sentimental about my childhood today and the lil' Chef Boyardee cup brought it all flooding back, like the switch mark scars on the back of my legs...

Dinner for One
Oooh and I followed it down with a locally bottled and semi-locally brewed beverage, you may have heard before, it's called Coca-Cola... And in the event that you think all I eat is shit, I did indulge in a little "Organic Valley" string cheese...I'm keeping it real by keeping it organic and still keeping it shitty by indulging in bottom of the barrel cheese. Oooh it's so good.
Clean Cup Club!

Big Ed's in Oak Ridge

I don't have any pictures of the pizza because I couldn't even wait to eat it long enough to take a picture. Does that make sense? Whatever, I ate it before I could take a picture of it. Because I was hungry. And it was good.





This guy was seated next to us.

Look How Cool I Am

I have the cutest salt and pepper shakers in the world.

And I made myself this coffee drink with the coolest straw in the world, which I own. The drink is cool because it has coffee ice cubes and is topped with chocolate whipped cream, and I can already feel myself waking up.

Booya!

From Pork Rinds to Cheese Curls, Grippo's brings fun to the party!

Jen Rock returned from Louisville with an Eat Me surprise - two bags of Grippo's Triple Heat BBQ Chips and they are sooooo goood. I can't really remember if they're called Triple Heat because you can't read it in the picture and the bag quickly got demolished. But they were hot and triple good, so Triple Heat it is.
Here's Jen at Preservation Pub hugging her bag of Grippo's:

Too bad we can't get them in Tennessee because I would eat them all the time, with every meal. Including breakfast and fourth meal. I might even eat a fifth meal made entirely of Grippo's. I was curious about these "Grippo's" so I did a little research, and here is what I found at the Grippo's web site :

Grippo's has been making their delicious snack foods since 1919!
In 1930, Angelo Grippo invented the loop pretzel! Mr. Grippo wanted a simple pretzel that could be made easily and would resist breakage! The loop pretzel looks like a tear drop! Mr Grippo not only invented but also constructed and put into operation the pretzel looping machines!
Today, Grippo's pretzels come in a variety of sizes; Rods, Super Thins, Twist, Loop!
You can buy all Grippo's products online, including 60 bags of chips for $18!
Pork rinds are advertised as low carb!
Grippo's is the original "Fun Food Company" because they've been having fun satisfying your craving for snack food for over 80 years! (Since 1919, remember?!)
When someone tells you to "get a grip!" you know what they mean...get Grippo's!

This is Mr. Angelo Grippo, and his wife, whose name is not given, but I'm gonna call her Rosalie, although she looks more like an Esther.
