Mouth Feelings

What a wonderful guest and what an excellent mouth feel she suggested. We could eat this all day. The flavors of the grill, the garden and fresh herbs mingle with a debate on tapas and death row meals. We play one of our favorite new games (F, Marry, Kill - Mouth Feelings Edition) and we discover how great a sommelier Ty would be.

Lots lots and LOTS of love for this dish. Johnny pair it with a drink called a “Handshake.” Description in episode and it’s very simple.. Johnny was ignored in our special guest’s memories but he’d like us all to know that “he was there too.” Julia did not have time for Ro-Tel life in high school even though her days lasted 18 hours on average. We have a new game that (gasp!) has a name no one is embarrassed about!! The game is “Can’t Find A Better Name!"

Whoa Nelly! What a boozy drink and what a doozy of a reason to eat a chicken salad sandwich with it. Jesus Ty! This time we simply must ask follow up questions! Also in this episode we discover the evil twin of the Aperol Spritz. Plus yet ANOTHER disturbingly titled segment: A Regurgitation.

This week’s ATQ: What food/food combination do you hate that everyone else loves and why?

Don’t let the our opening reference to Entertainment Tonight throw you, we get serious as Julia points out a very true father/mother double standard. Joel’s family referred to these store-bought “delights” as Barf-alloes, but the nicknames and the real names are also satisfying. Can you guess what we’re referring to before listening? Mel reveals that at school he would eat a sandwich lovingly made by his dad that, most of the time, was completely thawed!

A little bit more! We taste some weird chocolate and combine a few seemingly disparate things to enjoy. All obtained at one convenience store. Mel calls it “Getaway Food!”

Do you call them shipwrecks? Or Suicides? Swamp Water? Graveyards? What happens when you drink one of those little cans of diet coke? It’s not good but it’ll learn ya. Who’s the best at identifying convenience store sandwiches? The answer shouldn’t shock you. But the name of this game will melt your brain. Oh, and most of what Johnny’s kids make disgusts him. ATQ Part 2 of “What’s the oddest food combination you love that others might find a tad strange or a lot disgusting.”

FIREWORKS! Julia was more of a ’Deerword gal’ and not a ‘Moosilauke gal’ (ssssss) and is now more of a ‘Moosilauke Gal’ and less of a’ “Deerwood Gal” (Boom). At a baseball game Ty will occasionally eat a peanut WITH the  shell...on purpose!! (KABOOM) No one can remember a great macaroni salad. (EXPLOSION) And we declared our Independence of each other and ate in silence for 20 minutes. (GRAND FINALE) Also, watermelon is a FACT. (STANDING OVATION).

Want just a little bit more? The Wedding Punch gang plays the unfortunately titled “Would You Slather” where Ty reveals how many weeks a grilled cheese sandwich could be left on the counter and still be “good enough to eat!” A debate over chili where we don’t take off our shirts, upend the table and wrestle.

We’re Back! Mouth Feelings Season Two begins with a new beginnings theme! Tune in to hear what Julia sounds like after leaving half her brain at the gym! Meh, who cares? For someone who’s never paid full price for an oyster she’s doing great! Catch the first battle in the Great Ketchup Wars! Listen to Johnny slowly turn into a robot and reveal himself to be an “expert” on Australia. Mel finds the food combo that transforms him into a lead guitarist shredding on a mountain surrounded by bolts of l
