How come my bottle of soy sauce...

[Archie F. Swin]

says refrigerate after opening, yet every Chinese restaurant I've been to has a room temp bottle on the table. :hmmm: :harumph:

Because they refill theirs a couple of times during the day and don't leave out for three weeks and try to use. If you can use a whole bottle in a day, it shouldn't be a problem...

[Archie F. Swin]

ahh...sank yoo

Do you by chance live in Antarctica? That could also be a reason.

I hear it's impossible to get a good cup of coffee down there.

"Welcome to Chez Shackleton. Our specials tonight are penguin, penguinburger, penguin con carne, penguin chow mein, penguin alfredo, and penguinschnitzel."

[Bugeater]

I've always wondered the same thing about ketchup. Although I don't really care because I don't use the stuff.

[Rain Man]

"How's the polar bear tonight?"

"Polar bear's not on the menu. You have no idea how often I'm asked that."

[KcMizzou]

"Welcome to Chez Shackleton. Our specials tonight are penguin, penguinburger, penguin con carne, penguin chow mein, penguin alfredo, and penguinschnitzel."So why are penguins flightless, Mr Smartguy? Are they fat too?


:D

Sorry, couldn't resist.

...or Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and penguin.

[Rain Man]

"Can I get a salad?"

"We have a very nice penguin salad. It's penguin in a bed of lichen."

[Hammock Parties]

According to wikipedia, Antarctica is also host to Seals and Killer Whales, so we've got some surf and turf.

They just have small wings.

Would you like some buffalo penguin wings as an appetizer? They're small but tasty, kind of like Jennifer Alba. But more penguinlike.

[Hammock Parties]

I guess we can use the penguins as bait since I doubt there are worms in Antarctica. Eskimos will do in a pinch.

Excuse me, I have to go watch "Happy Feet".

Yup. I eat it, but ketchup scares me in restaurants.

I'm watching When Harry Met Sally. I've never seen it.

Meg Ryan looks kinda like Carrie Underwood in this movie. HAWT.

Please don't post any nasty paparazzi pics of her. Don't ruin my dream.

Brilliant.

[Rooster]

I love soy sauce! That is all.

[Hammock Parties]

OMG

I totally love Meg Ryan in this movie. I want to marry her.

[Rain Man]

If Meg Ryan came over for dinner, I'd fix her a nice stew of penguin, orca, and seal.

You have your sights set WAY too high. You need to think more fat girl at the convenience store.

[Hammock Parties]

Honestly, I think I just love this hairstyle. The night I fell in love with Carrie Underwood, she was wearing big hair:

Oh shit. Carrie Fisher is in this movie?

[007]

I'm watching When Harry Met Sally. I've never seen it.

By far her best movie.

[Hammock Parties]

I'll have what she's having.

[Thig Lyfe]

So... remind me how this turned into a When Harry Met Sally Game Thread?

[Hammock Parties]

Being alone sucks.

[ChiefJustice]

Yup. I eat it, but ketchup scares me in restaurants.

Actually,the ph acid content of tomatoes and the additional

preservatives make your local restaurants ketchup safe

at room temp for up to 3 months.


Soy sauce has an even higher acidity level.Acids kill bacteria.

If a restaurant hasn't replaced its' soy containers after
a month.....then i might be concerned.That means that no one is eating there.A red flag for me.



BTW:Meg Ryan was at her hottest in her dual role in "Joe Vs. The Volcano"!

[Archie F. Swin]

wow this thread is a late bloomer

[Rain Man]

I kid you not. This is a true story. My wife and I went to a restaurant this Friday, and as we were perusing the menu, my wife said, "I think I'm going to try the penguin."

I said, "The what?"

"The penguin."

Naturally, I got all excited. "They serve penguin here?"

My wife looked at me kind of funny and said, "It's the name of a cocktail."

I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't an entree, but still, what are the odds that we would be in a restaurant that served a penguin cocktail, and out of dozens of drinks on the menu - and the fact that she almost never orders anything but wine - she would pick that one?
