The whole notion that MAG is some kind of chemical poison is pure crap.. :&gt

but you will pay the price of a whole lobster, that's only a half. No, listen, what you do is go out to the AVENUES and find A CHINESE SEAFOOD restaurant and you buy a 40 DOLLAR Fisherman's wharf Dungeness Crab for ONLY 15.00.

Most NATIVES of SF know that already... there is always BETTER food out away from where the tourists eat.

Or you can simply go to ...

Sam's Grill & Seafood Restaurant


One of the best in the City by the Bay!

as long as the crab claw meat gets a long dip in the warm butter, it as close as you can get to the boiled lobster experience.

Next time through I'll keep Sam's Grill in mind.

And a nice crust.

It is cool this evening, and we’ve got a slight breeze. I’m in the Fairfield area.

I also like Kraft Macaroni & Cheese (the day-glo orange kind), Chef Boyardee spaghetti, and Twinkies. All these things are terrible food, full of weird chemicals and god only knows what else, but I do like them.

35. Hamburger Helper

I heartily endorse everything on your list, and I would add Hamburger Helper, and Sloppy Joe mix.

I see it as comfort food from an earlier time.
