Food Nostalgia
Listening to @jameslileks’ podcast The Diner is like a window into my past, especially when it comes to food. Over the past few months, I’ve grown reacquainted with baloney sandwiches (Oscar Mayer makes a triple-thick slice now!), chicken and tuna salad sandwiches, Chex cereal, grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup, and so forth. One of my favorite lunches is a jalapeno-pimento cheese sandwich. Another is a good old-fashioned BLT. I tried Spam, but couldn’t get back into it the way I could with other foods.
I’ve also come to renew my love for Underwood’s Deviled Ham spread, and basic Campbell’s soups, like vegetable beef, bean and bacon, and chicken and rice. I had an Eggo with my sausage and scrambled eggs this morning. I’ve gone back to 90% white bread for everything. Every now and then, I’ll get some bagels, Nova smoked salmon, a red onion, and Philadelphia onion & chive cream cheese and have bagels & lox for breakfast.
