A: Bones. If someone took bones away from me, I’d fall apart. It’s essential for the culinary arts. They’re used to extract flavor for various stocks. It’s the essence of flavor.
Sailor Days: Rum. Sailor Jerry’s rum is my after-dinner drink to cool me out. It’s dark Puerto Rican rum and it’s 90 proof.

A: Vegemite. It’s a black, salty yeast extract. You have to be born into it to really love it. Every Australian grows up eating it and you have to have it.
Good Morning: Bloody Mary. My husband makes the best in the world because he makes them nice and spicy. They’re great for anytime in the day.

A: I love hotdogs. No matter where you are or what you are doing, a hot dog is always the tastiest. Kosher dogs, as long as they have the snap.
Hops Up: Beer. Pabst Blue Ribbon might be the tastiest beverage on earth. It’s got flavor, it’s cheap, but it has to be ice-cold and from the bottle.
