I don't think much of Thai food. It's too hot for me. I don't understand their use of chillis. And all that rice. Those Thai people aren't really cooks. Call them something else if you like, they don't deserve to be called cooks.

Flame away, but I know what I like, and it's not Thai food. That stuff stinks.

2. Plus, ETHNIC people make that food!
Does it resemble a hamburger? No? Then it's not food.

Any edible thing made by a dark-skinned person (that lacks ketchup and white bread) is NOT FOOD. All my friends agree with me on this.


Whoa...wait aminute...the calendar says it's 2006?! When did THAT happen?

5. Exactly. Just because you put it in your mouth and chew it...
doesn't mean it is food!

7. Yep. I prefer someone who knows how to use CHEESE and DAIRY.
That person is a cook. All of that hot and spicy stuff is just like beating someone over the head. It doesn't take any talent to use eighty million peppers in everything.

10. Exactly. Now, mind you, I've only had Thai food once.
But THAT WAS ENOUGH. Enough to know that I hated it and that it's not really food.

9. A good cook is proficient in 8-10 different styles of cooking
Oh, and went to a first-class culinary school as well. And never, EVER makes something that poor people would eat.

12. Yes, a real cook has a certificate that they can hang on their wall.
They are proficient with the Kitchen-Aide and with the wisk and any number of SOPHISTICATED kitchen implements. Not that stupid stir-fry stuff.

19. "rice is for poor people"...
said a woman I know. She doesn't like eating it because of her belief. Incredible.

I could really go for some Thai now. There's no good Thai around here though. Thankfully I'll be in San Francisco in 2 weeks YUM!

24. There's only
Fondue.



Everything else is just not edible by all means. (And you can cook it yourself, so you're only confronted with yourself. I f you don't like yourself, that's your problem. Just sayin'.)
