...latter two are fantastic—light, nourishing, and fresh. The bread patties are delicious for about four bites, and then quickly become too heavy, to the point where I can feel the grease oozing down my throat. I would advise avoiding anything deep-fried unless McDonald??€™s apple pie is your favorite dessert—in which case, you have plenty of options...

Not to say that 40 years ago my father was empty on crudeness in his humor or fat in his food, but there is something excusable about the homegrown crudeness of second-generation seniors at the high school and fat-dripping burgers at the local diner...
