She would boil them for a few hours and then cover them in butter/salt. I think I liked them. I look back now and think WTF? REALLY GRANDMA? WEEDS?

I'm not an aggressive person. I would be the one to get hit in the head and then give it to the kid behind me.

[ChasMcG]

You didn't ask, but speaking of lunch:
Just ate black bean/summer squash/brown mushroom tacos topped with salsa, guacamole, a squeeze of lime, and shredded lettuce. Yum.

EDIT: I'm surprised how many of us are fish fans. Would've guessed a lot more red meat would be floating around this thread.

That sounds soooo good Mike!

Please send to Denver Colorado.

Subway: Turkey, with lettuce, tomato, pickles and black olives; no cheese or dressing.

2. What's your go to fast food option, when you are in an awww, frick it, life may be short mood?

Subway: Spicy Italian with provolone (toasted), lettuce, tomato, pickles, hot peppers, oil & vinegar. Mmmmmmm.

3. What flavor milk shake?

Chocolate, for sure. They really shouldn't bother to make other flavors.

4. How many miles do you think you need to run to wear off the awww frick it lunch?

Many.

5. Have you ever eaten kale or any other types of weeds and if so how do you cook 'em?

I think so. When I was in college one year, we lived in a house, and the prior year's residents had a garden. By the time we got there the next fall, it was pretty overgrown, but there was a lot of recognizable and unrecognizable stuff growing in it. I was quite aggressive about eating that stuff. I would just boil the heck out of everything until it was tender. Had no idea what I was doing, so probably ate a lot of weeds!

6. What is your favorite protein type food (or drink)?

Steak or tuna (especially sushi).

1. Thinking about lunch, what your's go to option for a healthier fast food lunch?

Is there such a thing? If I'm on the outs, and need to pick something up, I lean toward places where I can control what goes into my food - sandwich places, Chipotle, etc. At least I can control content.

2. What's your go to fast food option, when you are in an awww, frick it, life may be short mood?

I've become a big fan of Chick-Fil-A now that I live in the south. And the milkshakes there are awesome!

3. What flavor milk shake?

Cookies and Cream milkshake at Chick-Fil-A

4. How many miles do you think you need to run to wear off the awww frick it lunch?

2 weeks worth?

5. Have you ever eaten kale or any other types of weeds and if so how do you cook 'em?

Sure. I'm particularly fond of fiddle-heads, which are lovely just steamed, with a little butter on them. I want some now.....

6. What is your favorite protein type food (or drink)?

Fish. I could eat it every day

7. Totally off lunch unless you have a hot dog in one hand in your image thinking about this question, but also in my mind, if you're in the stands and a ball comes your way, how aggressive are you in trying to catch it?

Depends. We went to a AAA game a few weeks ago, and a smoking line drive came right at us, hitting the overhang above us with a loud ping. I was making no effort to catch it, and simply tried to cover Gabriel so he wouldnt get hit by it. I'll make a move on a pop-up, but I'm getting out of the way of line drives.
