They are good if fresh, not frozen. Taste totally different.

The only fast food I will eat are McDonald's fries and Taco Bell tacos. I would eat their nasty nachos if the chips weren't flour.

Yes, we were poor. I'd rather die and try and make my kids eat it.


OMG. We had that every week and I still love it to this day! Put the cornbread leftovers in milk! Yum!!!

Cereal, frozen tacos, lunch meat, anything glutinous, canned refried beans. I finally admitted that I don't like yogurt. Trying to stop diet Coke!

I love mustard--we have five or six open, and I still like French's Yellow Mustard. For some things you just have to have it.

I'm another lima bean hater. I love vegetables, but can't get past the texture and flavor. But my kids love them. I finally found frozen mixed vegetables without lima beans and they complained! Now I divide my lima beans up amongst the three of them. What strange little heathens I produced.

I forgot about the lima beans. Haven't touched them since I moved out of my parent's house.
