    I was waiting for my lunch to finishing nuking, and I started thinking about food. That's ironic, isn't it?

    I started thinking of foods that are often referred to as, "sinful:" cheesecake, chocolate, certain cream-based sauces, black forest cake, etc. Certainly, these foods and many others do deserve some type of exotic labeling, but are they truly sinful? In my opinion, these foods are best described as "special occasion" fare.

    To me, the most truly sinful food is bread.

    Think about it: warm, fresh-baked bread slathered with butter, a pizza crust dusted with oregano and parmesan, the crust of a cinnamony apple pie, crackers and cheese, even just a slice of bologna between two slabs of WonderBread. You know of what I speak.

    Nothing on this planet equals the joy of bread. Sure, a well-made cheesecake from an excellent recipe is a delight, but nothing excites me more than the aroma of bread in any of its many forms.

    I often tell people that if I suddenly developed an allergy to chocolate, I'd ask to be put out of my misery. The truth is, I can live without chocolate. There are so many other concoctions that are equally yummy that I'll get over it with time. However, to go one day without bread would be like death itself for me.

    Bread is the basis for eating. As I recall, the original definition of "food" was something like: stuff to eat with bread.

    Telling, isn't it?

    honestly, there are many who would claim that the wheel was mankind's greatest invention, but I'll argue fervently that in fact it was the discovery of what to do with all that ground wheat!

    Bread???? The food of the gods is a King Size Reese cup and a 20 ounce Mt. Dew. Talk about your sugar rush....

    Be that as it may, Dearest Keith, that delicious snack could be improved to ultimate perfection with the addition of a Krispy Kreme glazed original donut.

    Only if the "Hot Doughnuts Now" sign is glowing red. No greater let down in life that to have a cold Krispy Kreme....
