My friends, it is Simile Time.

That stuff is to food, as the sound of a phonograph needle being dragged across an LP of death-metal is to music. :o :shock: :cry:

The worst part is it was successful enough to warrant coming BACK.

If you get rid of the peach preserves and mayo, it'd be okay. (Doesn't matter what variety, mayonnaise should never be put on anything hot.)

Eeeeeyeah.....no. Hell no.

The only way that could be worse is if it actually had falcon IN it.

Oh, believe me, there are plenty of ways to make that worse with other food items. Much worse.

Insert "dirty bird" joke here.

Swap out the mayo for curry and maybe peach preserves for mango chutney, and you've got a much better sandwich.

The sweet from the maple marinade plus curry would make for a sweet heat, especially if you used a mild yellow curry. Since it is supposed to be a Georgia special, just go ahead and keep the peach preserves...

Yanno, that doesn't actually sound bad...

Often a combination that sounds horrible when each ingredient is considered separately will actually taste good when all combined, creating a totally unexpected merging of flavours.

Other times, of course, it will be just as—or even more—vile than you'd imagine.

And then sometimes there's a real surprise. I decided to make a sweet hot sauce with plums... and discovered that plums absorb capsaicin. The sauce was sweet, but not hot at all. Except for the plums.

I bet biting into one of those was a thrill.

Yes, but will your plumbing bear fruit?

You would declare a moriatorium on it before things got too hot and spicy?

So, leave it out for the insects to find. In fact, call it to their attention: Fuel, you flies!
