The Chat Files #2: or: Because I know we have a post about Tacos coming up, OR: Readability, schmeadability.

Fyn: can we also bitch about wraps
:: shudder ::

cerulean: You know, I really don't understand the wrap craze.

Fyn: i think they're gross

cerulean: There are very few that actually taste good.

Fyn: they're cold and kinda slimy

wraps are only good if they're fresh and freshly warmed

cerulean: And people think that the tortilla makes it healthier than bread? Have they ever looked at the back of the frigging package?

Fyn: and by "wraps" i'm speaking of "tortillas"

300 calories per wrap

cerulean: Tortillas are made of flour and oil!

Fyn: one reason i eat the burrito bowls

no need to try and eat something i dislike and ingest 300 calories while i'm at it

cerulean: I will say, that rolly polly is managing to do some nice things with them....because they undersand you can't just roll up sandwhich ingredients in a tortilla and call it a new dish. Blech.

Fyn: roly poly is pretty good

cerulean: Wait, so it's tortillas in general you don't like?

Fyn: i hardly ever go there for lunch but i have enjoyed myself when i have

i only like tortillas sometimes

i've started to make chicken tacos w/ flour tortillas at home

and i'm really digging them

but i do that liz thing where i heat the tortillas over an open stove first

i hate wraps b/c they're disgusting

cerulean: See, tortillas can be excellent...when regarded as it's own thing, not a bread substitute.

Fyn: tortillas i don't like so much just b/c

cerulean: The sandwich wrap thing drives me nuts.

Fyn: but i don't think tortillas are an anathema like i do wraps

cerulean: YOU CANNOT MAKE A HAM SANDWICH WITH A TORTILLA, PEOPLE.

Fyn: is that why people like wraps so much? they think it's a substitute sandwich??

ewww!

cerulean: Tortillas + Mayo = GROSS.

Yeah. People think because it's thinner it has less calories.

You know, honestly? If we did have a food blog, I think sometimes I'd just copy in our food chats.

Fyn: actually, that's not a bad idea

i mean, we should edit it out for readibility's sake
