You can turn your back on a person, but, never turn your back on a drug. Especially when it's waving a razor-sharp hunting knife in your eye.

A Taste of Long Beach
1999-11-19 15:25:23
If you say "Long Beach" to people in California, you'll probably get a response similar to if you were to say "Hey what's with all the dogshit on your face?" But most people don't know that this rough-and-tumble working-class town has given the world one of the all-time greatest foods known: The Long Beach Chili Cheese Fries.
It should be noted that just like the Philadelphia Cheesesteak Sandwich, or a Mission Burrito, unless you know exactly how it's prepared, you'll either fuck it up, or you won't get a taste of the real McCoy. So, I went to great expense to find out what the secret ingredients were to make LB Beach Chili Cheese Fries so special and unique. Many rebel spies paid with their life to bring you this. Don't let it go to waste.
Long Beach Chili Cheese Fries
- 1 bag of French fries (or three potatoes)
- 1 container of Lowrey's Seasoning Salt
- 1 can of chili (no beans preferred)
- 3 cups cheese
- 1/2 onion

About 14 years ago when I was on a road trip and stopped in Seattle, I was invited to a party. At this party there were these little tiny glasses sitting in a flat-bottomed bowl of ice. Thin cylinders about an inch in diameter and 4 inches tall, with thick glass at the bottom. Into these were poured frozen AKVAVIT... also known as the water of life. (More...)
