I used to chop the onions for French Onion Soup at a restaurant I worked at. It had really good French Onion soup, so it was quite popular. I chopped about 150 pounds of onions a week.
So i can handle my onions. Just please! No French Onion Soup! :-)
For me, it's sausage gravy I can't abide. I made at least 5 gallons every day, double that for weekends. I love sausage still, but that stuff...not so much.

My father and grandparents used to own a butchery and my father visited some factories where sausages were made. He never ate sausages again.

Quiznos had a sub that I really liked but it was temporary promotional thing. prime rib with fire-roasted poblano peppers with chipotle mayo, layered with habanero and jalapeno pepperjack cheese. So good super hot for fast food. I feel like every time they had one i really liked they discontinued it. really no wonder they are going (went maybe) bankrupt.
We had 2 Quizno's here in town, but we're down to one. I like their sandwiches, but they were too expensive for what you got, no matter how tasty they were. Subway is a better deal, and you can customize your sandwiches better there, too.

Squid rings, stuffed with crab or shellfish, tempura battered and deep fried.
This is not fair you know, I am still full from tacos and now I am hungry again.
I have worked every part of the food industry, seed/hoof to cook/serve, and really have no qualms about eating, but yes, there are some very Wrong things out there.

Seafood...for some reason, bad genetics, cursed bloodline or just plain old bad luck, I can't stomach seafood.
I either get rashes, my neck balloons up or the food doesn't agree with my stomach, giving me terrible abdominal aches, and exits with high velocity from either ends of my body.
So, every time you eat seafood a Gwar album is birthed. Get this man some clams and sushi!

It surprises me every time, how good the acoustics of a porcelain bowl are.

Funny how that usually works out. Luckily, I only had to make gravy with the sausage, not make the sausage. KP in a restaurant, not a butcher thankfully.

Made ice cream sandwiches this weekend. I found this cool mold that let's me make them so they look kinda like the store-bought ones. I used Betty Crocker gluten free brownie mix for the cookie parts. I usually make brownies from scratch, but my recipe tends towards the crumbly, and I thought that wouldn't work well for ice cream sandwiches, so I used a mix. And filled them with mint chip ice cream. They were glorious. I wouldn't recommend going to all the trouble if you can just buy them at the store, but they don't care any gluten free versions where I shop, so it was a welcome chance to enjoy a treat I hadn't had in a long time. :)
Life with food allergies. I often have to make treats from scratch instead of buying premade. But at least it's giving me lots of opportunities to gain new cooking skills. :P

I love a good chicken and green pepper sandwich (with or without cheese). Specially with some small slightly spicy green peppers that are kinda popular here.
Btw, what is the difference between a sandwich and a sub?
When I talk about sandwiches I am always talking about sandwiches with real bread, not soft bread.

I've never baked mold bread but I usually bake all kinds of the other. Here in Spain it's the most common variety and Galicia is known for having specially good bread. Doing traditional bread without being baked in a stone oven is just not the same even if you use the right techniques and a high quality flour, but I like baking my own bread from time to time.

It's not so much a matter of money, as a matter of time. There's a Subway around the corner of one of my bus stops as I'm going to work. I don't have a half hour or more to wait on my order when my second bus is arriving within minutes.
If time wasn't an issue, I'd go to Sbarro and get a couple Stromboli.

My wife use to make home made bread, before we discovered my daughter's allergy. We have cut back on bread use now. The gluten free recipes are not the same in taste or texture. We use to buy everything from a deli to make subs at home about every other week. Such an easy meal and clean up with a family of six. Dishes are always a big task in my house. I am the dishwasher, and most meals require 20 to 60 minutes of dish washing. If I skip just one meal it piles up quick.
My family shared our first watermelon of the year. I know not everyone likes watermelon, but that is not the case in my family. If I don't eat a it while I am cutting it I might not get any. I like all kinds of melons, but watermelon is the only one that all my family likes.

Have you tried watermelon salad? Delicious.
My favorite watermelon salad has romaine lettuce (two or three heads) one watermelon, red onions, sunflower seeds, olives, and feta. Then you mix equal parts olive oil (must be extra virgin, seriously, don't skimp on olive oil for salad-dressings) and balsamic vinegar, usually about 1/2 cup of each does nicely, mix thoroughly, then pour it on and enjoy.

And people who salt on watermelon are just uncivilized heathens.
