  Bourne -

  I've lived in the US my whole life and I've never heard of most of those. Have you??

  Here's the one's I *do* know (and may use) -

  BLT

  Blue Plate Special (Never had one - but I thought they were only at K-Mart??)

  Bloody

  Java/Joe

  Mayo

  Moo Juice

  Pigs in a blanket (ours were different, though)

  Rabbit Food (my brother always ordered with 'no rabbit food')

  Shit on a Shingle

  Short Stack

  'course maybe I'd know more of the colorful lingo if I had ever worked in a restaurant???

  Two cows, make them cry - This one made me laugh. Also made me think these terms are mostly used by the staff in a restaurant rather than by the patrons.

  Me? I just had a couple cookies and a can of Squirt soda.

  -Aude.

  I just consumed two helpings of homemade shrimp pasta marinara with fire-roasted tomatoes.....compliments of......me.

  Diagnosis? Delicious.

  AudeSapere, I agree. Having grown up in the south, and eating at my share of diners, I myself have only heard of about a dozen terms or so, most of them

  pertaining to breakfast. Go figure.

  I'm eating salmon on a bed of rocket with balsamic dressing and cherry tomatoes.

  chickpea

  at least 5 times a week, usually at breakfast, but i have eaten it in the evening and for lunch.....

  cooked steel cut oats with coconut oil, (real) maple syrup and walnuts......... it is like liquid oatmeal cookies..... i told my husband that it is the one food i eat that helps me understand why the dogs can wag their tails at feeding time, even tho it is the same kibble they have been eating all their lives.......
