Haven't ever tried it, have you?

It's been called "comfort food". Used to be something kids used to eat for breakfast or snack, something sick people would eat because it's easy to consume and easy on the stomach. And just a "comfort food" to munch on.

It's mainly buttered toast with hot (not boiled or burned) milk poured over it, seasoned any way you like. Lots of ways.

To each his own...but give it a try. You won't know for sure until you try.

He said it SOUNDS gross. And I agree. But I'm sure like a lot of things it sounds gross but is actually fine.

The really cool thing about trying things you never had before is sometimes you find something awesome that you'd never thought of as being good before.

And if it turns out otherwise? Well...just don't try it again. No real loss.

That's how I learned what a GOOD steak is all about. Growing up, my Mom would broil a steak into shoe leather and I thought that's the way it was...and drowning your bites of shoe sole in Worchestershire sauce was how it was done. Then Dad told me one day "Your Mom's a good cook, but she can't cook a steak right if her life depended on it. Next time we grill, I'll show you how it's supposed to be done."

When Dad served me up a steak hot off the grill that was practically bleeding? I was a bit less than impressed...until my first bite without any sauce. No turning back since then.

I never turn down food just because I've never had it before or because I might think it's somehow disgusting or nasty. (In fact, at the table I'll eat something of everything prepared, even if I know it's something I don't like because that's the way I was raised. I consider it rude for me to sit at a meal someone took the time and effort to prepare and NOT eat something of everything. If I don't like it, I'll get a small portion and won't have seconds.) Sometimes I'll find something I "know" I won't like, but the way it's prepared THIS time is awesome.

Like asparagus. Growing up, Mom cooked asparagus until it was slime and I couldn't eat it without gagging all the time. Back when my wife and I were dating, she served asparagus at her family's house for dinner one night...and I ate some because that's the polite thing for me to do.

And ya know what? Asparagus that isn't cooked until it's slime is pretty damn good! Fresh stalks drizzled with olive oil and lightly grilled with kosher salt sprinkled over them? Changed my whole attitude about asparagus.


That said...doesn't mean others will like hot milk toast.

But that's OK...I enjoy food threads here where we toss about favorites and argue over them. That's part of the fun.

Make it into sos and I'll take some
 
I like fried eggs with a runny yolk. Buttered toast is the best for sopping up the yolk. Cut it diagonally for ease of sopping... obviously...
