Sorry. Grades due in an hour. Can't post.
Sort of. You know how people talk about comfort food all the time now? That's what we used to just call "food." People don't want to do that anymore; it has to be in a category that expresses how New York and up to date you are because of course you don't really eat that stuff every day. You usually eat fusion cuisine, with an amuse-bouche of some shit that normal people wouldn't consider actually a food, and sushi for breakfast (when you're slumming, because sushi is SOOO 90s). So when you admit that you actually eat stuff like tomato soup and grilled cheese, you call it comfort food.
I am eating tomato soup and grilled cheese because it's one of my favorite things ever. It came from the school cafeteria, so the cheese should probably really be spelled cheez because it probably really isn't cheese. The bread is anything but artisanal and I'm pretty sure the soup came out of a five gallon bucket that says "Fred's Soup for Schools--Chase City, Virginia."
This is the best goddamn meal I've had all week.
