(little twist on the prompt- this is about one of my least favorite foods instead)

I hate the taste of baked potatoes

I’ve never met one that I liked

They churn in my mouth like fresh-turned dirt

And sink down my throat like spikes

I try burying them with onions and cheese

And dollops of sour cream

But the graininess still overpowers them all

Like my tongue is having a bad dream

Of course I ...

Tacos…

Roast beef, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, wrapped in a tortilla so it’s like a wrap and…

“HOLD UP, HOLD UP, THATS BURRITOS, MOTHER JUST CALLS IT TACOS BECAUSE SHES NOT VERY EDUCATED IN MEXICAN SREET FOOD!

Take the finest silk in your possession.

Run your fingers over the creamy texture, the flawless piece of fabric.

Wait for cumulonimbus clouds to gather themselves in the heavens and watch them thicken to soak the earth. Pull on your rubber boots and lather them in petrichor, humidity, and mud. Smooth and thick, the color of oak bark. Bend down to drag a curious pinky through the mysterious liquid....

Imagine it glistening in the light with the warmth of the sun. Can you see it? A cluster of noodles bathed in orange, and a creamy sweet aroma filling the air.

Mother lifts the wooden spoon to your tongue and you taste the milky cheese and the buttery noodles. The rich flavor fills your mouth, and suddenly all you desire is one more bite....

I can eat it forever and ever and then again.

When I die I hope I become Mac and cheese....
