Meatballs in grape jelly is my worst. So so disgusting.

Best would be a really good summer salad with produce from their own garden or a farmers market. Tomato, basil, mozzarella. Tomatoes, avocado, red onion. That sort of thing.

Let me guess, you just drink water at block parties (out of your own water bottle, of course).

NP. What's wrong with drinking water at a block party? Our neighborhood block party happens on my end of the street, and I usually bring my own water bottle. I don't drink alcohol or soda. Is that OK?

You DCUMers are so hilariously predictable.

Same! I won't eat anything made by people with dogs or cats in their house.

Your loss. The cat is never in our kitchen.

But their hair is. It's everywhere. No thanks!

Best: Those awesomely awful Rice Krispie treats with peanut butter and the melted chocolate on top

Let’s duke it out.

Best - Rotel with HOT sausage; Worst - a Jello dish

Dare you to try strawberry jello pretzel salad.

I was a skeptic, too.

This sounds like something I didn't know I needed.

You definitely need it. It's delicious and I am not much of a Jello fan.

This post is just dripping with snobbery and self righteousness.

What? Sounds like it’s just dripping with opinions to me. Sorry people don’t like your gross jelly meatballs.

Actually most people would probably devour the meatballs and ignore your healthy boring salad.

I hate deviled eggs with the passion of a thousand firey suns. I hate mayo and making the yolks all creamy makes my stomach turn. I watched someone piping them once then she put the filling on her finger and licked it off- I thought I was going to pass out.

Even if it were in the kitchen- I don't put food on any surfaces other than a plate or cutting board. The food shouldn't touch the counter anyway. So even worst case scenario the cat did jump up- there's no contamination.

And my dog can't reach the counter....
