Before QB Dandy Don Meredith became a high school graduate From Mt Vernon, Texas, his mother found a critter in her can of DelMonte green beans and the company gave her free canned goods for life.

I found a cricket leg in a can once years ago. I was surprised to learn the FDA has allowable amounts of insects and foreign debris that can be present in the processed foods we buy.
yuck...

Heck, Paden in Florida if you buy a "fresh" packaged salad sometimes they throw in a green tree frog for free. 😎
They ain't too tasty neither.
I've never seen a LJS. I thought it was a made-up place. Kind of like Popeyes

I hear that if they are covered in a couple inches of good chocolate, most anything is "edible".
Many moons ago (I think before I was even a teenager), a great uncle had a package delivered.... chocolate covered insects. At least some of them got eaten, I do not remember if the whole box was finished off or not.

We have this stuff around here called "chicken fried steak". It's a federal law that it is to be served with heavily peppered cream gravy. It's to die for. My wife once observed that I could "probably eat a dead frog if it had cream gravy on it".
She's probably right. 😉

I'm reminded of a conversation I had with wife no. 1...
She had no sense of direction when it came to driving. Everything was "turn left" or "turn right". On the other hand I usually give verbal directions with cardinal directions.
I had given her explicit directions about how to get the doctor's new office, in her "left and right" terms. After she made a right (to go southbound on this particular street) the office was a few doors down (on the east side of the road) and I instructed her she would turn left into the property.
When she got home she instructed me "I was wrong". She explained she missed the address the first time and had to turn around (to go back northbound) and then turned right into the address. Since I had originally told her to turn left, I was wrong...
That wasn't the only reason we divorced. It was mainly due to religious reasons actually: You see, I'm a Methodist and she was the devil...;)

If I am unfortunate enough to be made to go to a "Mall" by the old bat...err SWMBO I am completely disoriented inside and always exit the dump from the opposite side of where I came in. :p
Cream gravy is the nectar of the gods. There is a chance I might accidentally eat brussell sprouts if pureed into cream gravy much like Grandma used to do with asparagus.
A memorable Popeye's experience was in April 1988. I had finally arrived in New Orleans along with eight other travelers all headed to the National School Board Association Convention. Due to frustrating airline inconveniences it was nearly midnight and none of us had eaten anything but airline peanuts since noon. We checked in at the hotel quickly then walked together down the street to a Popeye's to get something (anything) to get us by until morning. We were surrounded by high school students in suits, tuxes and frilly prom dresses. They had left their prom to take their dates to Popeye's to eat some "real" food before they continued to party the night away. Tuxes and prom dresses, or so I have been told, are rarely seen at Popeye's.
I usually navigate by true directions (one thing that IS easier in PLSSia) but when I enter a big store I switch to directions relative to the front of the store. I could be standing in the middle of the home improvement store and if you ask me where North is I have to do some thinking.

I always wear a prom dress to Popeyes they always give me free food if I order it "to go", and vacate the premises ASAP. :p

We need pics of that! No close ups though, we really don't need to see them legs sticking in clear detail!:grinning:

I don't know about you, but I happen to like fried frog legs.
If there is any bad news, it is that their "food" isn't that good, that should be of concern, I refuse to eat at one any longer if I happen to come across one, none locally.
