Foods You Won't Eat Outside Your Home

I was chatting with some co-workers yesterday on our lunch break during our long ass meeting. We were talking about foods we won't eat unless it's made at home or by a relative.

Those of you who know me well know how much I love to cook and that I'm pretty good at it too! There's nothing like a house full of people and cooking for everyone, It's fun. Whether it be a huge BBQ or cooking up something in the kitchen, I enjoy it very much. Must be my Italian side. I am very particular about ingredients and about what I cook and eat. There are a few things I really won't eat unless I make it or maybe my Mom or brother makes it:

1) Eggplant. Just about every restaurant fucks up eggplant. They cut it too thick, don't cook it long enough, and it's just NASTY! I make a great eggplant and it kicks ass!

2) Meatballs. Even good Italian restaurants need training on meatballs. They use too many breadcrumbs and the things are like fuckin' cue balls. I have rarely even attempted getting these anywhere but from my own kitchen.

3) Chili. I've had chili in many a place and it's never as good as when you make it at home. Not sure what these places skimp on, but it usually sucks!

4)Hamburgers. There's nothing like a burger made at home on the BBQ. It's not often that I can find a really good hamburger somewhere. It's usually soggy or tastes like crap.

5) Bacon. Everyplace I get bacon they never make it crispy! It's always soggy and rubbery. Leave it in the pan another few minutes! I usually end up throwing it away or taking it off my sandwich. Nothing like it made at home.

That's just a few things I hate eating out of the home....love to hear yours.....
