How can noodle soup have too much soup in it?
It’s a bit like asking why does my egg have a yolk.
Yes…im most of the way down a Chianti Classico.

I think thanks are in order to Zach for another Gay Superman-free Friday linkfest. Good weekend, all.

To Rudy:
Dan dan noodles is not a noodle soup. It’s a dry noodle dish.
I love Szechuan Gourmet, but am not so crazy about their dan dan noodles.

I had these Dan Dan noodles from SzG about a month a go–takeout, and ate them about 3 days later. (They were refrigerated immediately, and didn’t have as much pork topping as B&B’s pix show.) I seriously think these gave me food poisoning. Had them Monday evening (had cereal earlier in the day), and Tuesday I felt queasy, then developed a fever, runs, aches etc. by late afternoon. Nothing else I ate the day before I got sick seems to be a culprit. They were pretty spicy/tasty, though. Maybe I should thank SzG for helping me with my weight loss regimen.

stevenp-why would you eat the noodles 3 days later? I wouldn’t be surprised if you did get food poisoning.
Are these noodles just udon noodles with some scallions and meat? That’s what the original picture on the blog looks like to me.

They’re heavily spiced, and I got a takeout order that was immediately refrigerated at home. Other meal options came up for a couple of days, thus the delay. I seriously doubt that an unopened takeout order that went in the fridge while still warm would simply go bad. Never happens with other half-eaten leftovers that sometimes sit around longer. It’s not like I left them sitting open on the countertop for3 days. Sheesh.
Jeebus! I clicked on that Real People, Real Lunch link and that site assaulted my eyes. The colors! I clicked away
