Taste

What is it about certain things that makes them so irresistible?  I was talking to Carl Johnson at church today.  He came in and got a sandwich on Thursday and told me he has been craving The Little Brick House since that time.  He told me that he started eating it just before starting one of his classes.  The students that were there asked him what he was eating and when he told them the class got into a big discussion about our food.  He said class ended up starting 5 minutes late because of it.  That is pretty neat.  It is nice to hear that people around town have a liking for our place.  We try to ensure that all of our sandwiches are not just good but great, each with its own unique taste that make it so. 

I really didn't start this with the intent of talking about The Little Brick House.  It is more about taste.  There are things that I find quite enjoyable.  Root beer happens to be one of those tastes that I am a big fan of.  If I had to rank my favorite soft drinks Root beer is at the top.  Steak, medium rare and seasoned just right - delicious.  Wood fired pizza, Fontano style tacos, lemon bunt cake, chocolate and peanut butter, oh my the list goes on. 

The salty-sweet combination is always a favorite.  Some prefer things that are a little saltier.  Some like more unique foods.  Jack has his own likes and today I got to learn about something that he really likes.  We were sitting in church when out of the corner of my eye I saw Jack picking his nose.  I turned to look at him and saw him plop whatever he picked out of his nose into his mouth.  I whispered "That is pretty gross Jack".  He looked me in the eye and simply said "But is tastes so good".  I don't know how many agree or disagree with this.  I don't personally know how I feel about the taste, it's the texture that I prefer.
