Spicy or Mild

jakehurwitz:

I have gained 18 pounds since I moved to New York. I think this is mainly because when I moved here I started eating meat. I’m not ready to give up meat again, but I am officially giving up the following foods which I deem the biggest offenders to my diet.

- Bacon
- French Fries
- Breaded Chicken

I think just saying that in my head wouldn’t be enough. I needed to tumble it. Now I am accountable. If you see me eating these foods, tease me mercilessly.

This reminded me of the time when Jake and I were getting lunch from Popeye’s in North Carolina because we were going to the Cayman Islands and we had a connecting flight there. I ordered my meal first and everything was going smoothly, then it was Jake’s turn. He ordered chicken strips and the woman getting his order was like “spicy or mild?” but she had a southern accent so she said mild kind of like mahld. Jake didn’t understand, so he was like “what?” and the woman repeated what she said, still with an accent and a bit annoyed. I tried to whisper to Jake what she was saying, because I understood it. But before I could he was saying “mahld” exactly the same way as the woman. At first he said it quietly then he said it again so that the woman could hear him. I had to run away because I was laughing too hard. Every time I think about this I laugh hysterically.
