Delicious, enormous hush puppies. Just what every growing boy needs.
Some of you will note that I am eating turkey, stuffing, corn, and hush puppies. According to the lunch lady, I have exceeded the prescribed "meat and two veg" meal combo design and so will have to pay a surcharge. Totally worth it. Others may say that I have strayed outside the lines of the acceptable traditional turkey meal combination.
Frak you all (including you lunch lady), I believe this to be a valid meal for several reasons.
1. Turkey loves company.
2. The hush puppies are huge, and deserve to be eaten.
3. Hush puppies are derived from corn products, and so can successfully counted along with the corn as one larger conglomerated serving of "corn". Note: this argument did not fly with the lunch lady. I forked out the extra $.95 anyway.
4. I am hungry. My belly screams for fried corn meal balls.
5. Those hush puppies are HUGE and DESERVE TO BE EATEN!
Editor's note: I paid for this meal later in the evening, but I had a good magazine to read while I waited for things to sort themselves out.
