Grills with or without

During my college years at the University of Virginia, my favorite eatery was the University Diner. The UD served the famous bacon cheese dog and grills with (or without). You can imagine the bacon cheese dog, but probably have no idea what grills with means. Grills with was a Krispy Kreme doughnut, grilled (with liberal butter) and served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Grills without omitted the ice cream.

'What is he talking about?', the curious reader said. Well I read this piece from the Blovi8or - FRIED SNICKERS BARS, FRIED CHEESE CURDS, CORN DOGS, PORK CHOPS ON STICKS ... IT'S FAIR TIME! and thoughts of grills with immediately entered my mind.

I appreciate the recognition of my crusade for a healthy lifestyle. I do want to make clear that I am not the dinner Gestapo. My diet is not pristene - nor do I think anyone elses should be perfect. Rather, I hope to moderate my diet, balancing the occasional meal purely for pleasure, with mostly intelligent eating. Everything in moderation, including moderation. (someone said that - but I know not who).
