I do love anything chocolate, but would easily give it up for Carpaccio, med rare beef or Pho

I voted savory...I've finished up more than a few savory meat meals with one more helping of savory meat, while others are finishing up with cake or pie (I would miss nanner pudin' though...but would survive).

I don't even like sweet breakfasts. Savory all the way.

Easy choice for me. Savory, hands down. One look at our fridge and pantry you'd see all of the sauces we use in our kitchen on a daily basis. Oriental, Asian and Mexican and everything in between. A lb. of sugar lasts us a year or more.

Not to mention Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese and Thai food just to name a few more.

What if it were said that in this case you could live only on sweet foods?

Suspend reality just a bit.

Nope. No way. Love my Ribeyes alone enough that just a choice between giving up ribeyes vs sweets forever, I'd give up all sweets for that one cut of meat.

Then there's bacon and lamb and all sorts of meats and other things with salt.

No brainer.

I suppose it depends...

Some bbq sauces are sweet, does that count of it's slathered all over some ribs?

The flaky crust of an awesome Chicken Pot Pie is pretty sweet, how about that?

Rice is inherently sweet, as is Teriyaki - what about a Teriyaki Steak Rice Bowl, or Eel Sauce on Unagi Nigiri?

What about Dark Chocolate with Bacon in it?

Maybe I could manage.

Between the two choices, I'm on the savory side.

I have tasted great cakes and pies in my life and the distinguishing common denominator is that they aren't too sweet.

I have to take exception to this as I consider myself a rice connoisseur.

Rice is like a fresh brand new canvas upon which you can slather different colors from your flavor palette to create the epicurean equivalent of a Mona Lisa or a David.

Savory without a doubt, if I could only have salt and black pepper I would be ok with that.

Maybe I'm losing it, but I swear we had this discussion a year or three ago.

It's like déjà vu all over again.
In any event, could I maybe have my weeks with six savory days and one sweet day?
