So you've been to the Dressed to Get Laid party then eh?
Oh man...
Every year I was there.
Had to.
I dont remember butter ever being featured, but one year there was a... crisco incident.
The images are forever burned into my brain. (this is a good thing... a very, very, very good thing)
mmmmm..........

One wonders if this might have to do with the fact that it has travel to you from another continent. (Maple is one of those species that doesn't exist in Europe, right?)
Several maples are native to Europe, but the species preferred for maple syrup harvesting isn't one of them. However, I think this is a minor impediment to a greater uptake of maple syrup in this country, compared to the major impediment that it tastes absolutely foul.
I've only ever encountered maple syrup in the US, I don't think it's at all widely sold over here. We were talking in the pub once about why Indian cuisine is so prevalent in the UK, whereas the cuisines of other ex-colonies, say Canada, are much rarer. I reckoned this was because we took one bite of Canadian cuisine, discovered it was covered in maple syrup, and spat it right out again...
What was the most disturbing scene in Twin Peaks? The forwards-backwards speaking little dream man? Leland's last scene in the police cell? For me it was Agent Cooper saying "Nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup collides with ham"... *shudder* ... I still have nightmares...

If we are having eggs, bacon and hash browns, can I also have sausage, fried bread, baked beans and black pudding please
Now you're talking! And how about some lightly fried mushrooms too? And tea... lots of tea... ho yes.

Bagels in the freezer, cos then they are easy to pop in the toaster.
Ketchup - in the bin, along with Mayo (except my wife has some in the fridge)
Maple Syrup - in a tin in a cool cupboard
Honey - on the windowsill (well, it was a handy space, and it looks so good with the sun shining through it) It never goes bad.
All sauces - in a cupboard.
Milk - as cold as possible before freezing ensues (although I do like milk straight from the cow. Well, into a cup rather than...you know)
Beer and alcopops - in fridge
White wine - in fridge
Bombay Sapphire gin and Smirnoff vodka - in freezer
And I may be a freak too:
Eggs - ideally raw, liquidised into drinking chocolate, but these days that isn't such a safe option, so I guess sunny-side-up for me.
Lemoncurd or Marmite - spread on thick slices of mature cheddar cheese (or alternatively wrap the cheese in honey roast ham and cover with maple syrup.
BK or McD french fries with chocolate mousse
Real chips with Edinburgh chippy sauce.

Then there was that concoction Cartman made on the Fat Camp episode...
Lets see... 2 frosted pop tarts, a stick of butter and powdered chocolate I think. He toasted the pop tarts, powdered the stick of butter with the chocolate, then put the butter between the toasted pop tarts and it all squished out (must have kept it out of fridge for it to be soft... or maybe the hot pop tarts softened it...)
Then he goes out to watch TV to be confronted by everyone about him being fat...

Now, molasses is foul. My dad used to put it on various breakfast-related items.

My mom used to freeze milk and bread. I hated frozen and thawed milk so I never drank much as a kid. The frozen then refridgerated bread was weird, so I never (well once in the last ten years) put the bread in the fridge... Oh and I hate white bread, too pasty-like....

I'm the exact opposite. I might as well have milk coming from the faucets in my house. That stuff gets consumed at a rate af about a half gallon a day.
