No More Twinkies!?

...Euell Gibbons would beg to differ....

To quote Euell- 'Ever ate a pine tree? Some parts are edible.' Hmmmmm, yeah, okay.......

Oh, yum. Never heard of Grape Nuts served that way, PatintheHat, but think I'm going to have to try it because it sounds deeeee-lish! Although I was thinking sugared walnuts might be pretty good instead of the pecans. After all, we weren't saying you have to go the full Euell Gibbons healthy here--this was about tasting good.

[kingricefan]

I honestly don't think I've ever eaten Grape Nuts in my lifetime. My family really wasn't known for eating the healthiest foods back in the day....

[blunthead]

Yes, nuked grape nuts are good. I'm amazed at how much better they are that way.

I think all parts on the grape should be used.

I think all parts on the grape should be used.

...even the Gilbert part?....

Scott, give this to the prison cooks. I found a recipe for grape nuts meat loaf This could be the breakfast version of prison loaf.

1/2 Cup Grape Nuts Cereal
1/2 Cup hot water
1 Lb ground beef
1 egg slightly beaten
1/3 onion, chopped
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
dash of black pepper
dash of garlic powder
1/4 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce or ketchup


Mix the Grape Nuts cereal with the hot water and let stand 2 minutes to absorb the water. Drain off excess water if still soupy.
Mix beef, Grape Nuts, egg, Worcestershire sauce, onion, garlic, salt and pepper thoroughly. Shape loaf in a greased pan/baking dish.
Top with the BBQ sauce or ketchup and bake at 350 for one hour.

I get it! I get it! That was a good movie.

Hot cereal? Malt-O-Meal, people.

Cold Grape Nuts. Euell was right. It's awesome with honey or some kind of sweetener on it.

And the ultimate [Southern] replacement(s) for Anything Hostess:

Moon Pies and Goo Goo Clusters. Look 'em up.
