98. Corn and applesauce.
Fri Jun 14, 2019, 10:34 PM
Jun 2019

I don't remember if our Mom made us eat that, or if I found out by accident when they got mixed on my plate.

But fresh hot corn stirred into cold applesauce is delicious. I like it best before the temps even out, so that the corn is still hot and the applesauce is still cold.

I also like butter on crackers. I started doing that at diners while waiting on the order. They usually had Captain Wafers and crackers for salads on the table, and butter.

And plain spaghetti with just salt and melted butter.

I heard people at work talking about pouring a bowl of Frito corn chips like cereal, then filling the bowl with buttermilk. Never tried it.
