I didn't eat it lol

and there were these potato chips from Texas too,it was years ago and i can't remember the name of them

I think it was a white bag with red stripes and a green pepper on it

they would set you on fire,they were the first chips that ever made me sweat eating them

I think it was a Cayenne pepper on the bag

you would enjoy the heat the next morning too lol just like good hot chili,this was way before I knew what a habanero pepper was

this was probably in the mid to late 80's

about the time I moved to a hog farm and learned to can back bones n ribs and canned sausage too

first time with home made head cheese,that stuff was great, learned how to make lard,cure hams,shoulder, jowls and killer sausage,that wasn't canned

who knew all that lard is,is fat melted over a wood stove over night ?in a pot and then pour it into a container,I have no idea why it doesn't go bad either

and had fried brains,mountain oysters and fried bull balls,never no tongue though

seen coon peckers for tooth picks,but I wouldn't use one :)

and yes I've had open heart surgery too :) it wasn't the food though lol

Tony Chachere's chicken creole marinade. Tried it tonight and this stuff is really good. They also have a beef creole that we're gonna try.

Alright. So my wife makes this dip. I hate when she makes it because I can't stop eating it. Anyways... Here it is.

Two packages of cream cheese.
One small onion diced.
One 12 oz can of crushed pineapple.
Two to four tablespoons of sugar.

Mix all said ingredients together. Chill overnight. And enjoy the crap out if it.

Plain chips, tortilla chips, or my favorite lays barbeque chips. Heck, this stuff is even good on turkey sammiches.

Sounds like you're describing Friday's Habanero Fire Bites, or the Friday's Jalapeno Fire Bites. They were always potato skins. I used to always eat the habanero ones all the time. I'm pretty sure they still sell them too.

If you are in a pinch and want to grill some chicken wings that haven't marinaded you can just brush on Tabasco Chipotle on them the last few minutes of cooking. It works, and it's quick.

What is people's fascination with "sea salt"?

I hadn't heard this "fascination" but am aware of the differences between the salts.

Sea salt in comparison to table salt contains less sodium by volume, it still retains the original minerals(magnesium, potassium, calcium and other nutrients), and has less iodine. Some people notice a taste difference some don't. Pick the one your taste buds prefer.

And don't forget to get enough iodine in your diet, which is why iodine is added to table salt in the first place. We try to do a mixture of salts in our house, using iodine salt sometimes to make sure we get enough.

Do a google image search of iodine deficiency at your own risk.
