Not even the occasional one night stand?

Well...I've come to realize there are times that you simply cannot avoid potatoes.

Or sweet tea.

Or macaroni & cheese.

Or banana pudding.

Or corn.

Or birthday cake and ice cream.

And that's all been in the last five days...:blush: and there is more to come :roll:

French Fries fried in Olive Oil. There is a restaurant here in the Nooga that serves these. They are the bomb!

Spent two years in Italy some years back. They do patatas fritta (french fries) and always done in olive oil. Absolutely fantastic! The only thing better was the calamari fritta.

How about fried potates and onions in a cast iron skillet? with ketchup of course.

Oh lord...that's very close to my absolute favorite non-shrimp meal of all time...SAUSAGE & POTATOES.

Potatoes, sliced. a little bit of oil. Seasoned black pepper & onion salt. Slice smoked sausage in. Cover. Let it cook until the taters are tender (stirring occasionally so as not to burn, and even if it burns just a little, that's best of all). Uncover to let the grease cook off. :drool:

Not healthy for anything, except the soul.

Actually, I hear you here ShallowsNole! When I was growing up, my dad would make us fried potatoes and onions with this amazing homemade venison sausage! One of my favorite gastronomic memories...:wub:

I like what Mitch Hedberg (RIP) said:

I like baked potatoes. I don't have a microwave oven, and it takes forever to bake a potato in a conventional oven. Sometimes I'll just throw one in there, even if I don't want one, because by the time it's done, who knows?

I second the fried potatoes with onions with the potatoes cut into random squarish shapes-I can eat 2 potatoes worth of these! I would take these over any other side!!!
