http://articles.orlandosentinel.com...1079_1_beans-and-rice-black-beans-beans-daily I was sitting around with friends the other night when the conversation turned, as it so often does if I have anything to do with it, to food.
And someone asked: If you had to eat the same meal over and over again for the rest of your life, what would that meal be?
Immediately, someone else just had to pipe up and say: Considering the way things are with people starving all over the world, and the homeless right here in America not knowing where their next meal is coming from, do you really think it is appropriate that we talk about something as frivolous as pigging out on the same meal for the rest of our lives?
But almost as immediately, the rest of us suggested: Shut up.
And we got down to the matter at hand.
