I agree, Bacon and Cheese are clear #1 and #2, respectively. After that, I must break rank and move salt into the #3 spot, and follow it up with butter and then pepper in the #4 and #5 spots. Cream would be 6th for me, with mushrooms in 7th — although, really, there are many things I would list before mushrooms, – unless, of course, we are talking about winter truffles, in which case, I would them up to #2 or #3 – probably #3, as I can’t imagine giving up cheese.
Are you kidding me? You obviously don’t cook Mexican, Italian or other Mediterranean food. Dude, get real.
Tonight, perhaps some Souvlaki. I’ll be sure to steer clear of that off the radar Greek Oregano.
