European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - October 17, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse Page in the stars and stripes Friday october 17,1986 columns today a crossword observations concern no food Brandy Rooney when i m in trouble with my life i cat when i m in trouble with a column i my to food. Herewith some observations on food it s too bad they can t develop a Watermelon that has just one big pit like a peach. I Don t mind a noisy restaurant but i Don t go Back to restaurants that have music in the Back ground. When t find a Jar of dry roasted Salt free pea nuts on the sheif in our House i heat them in a pan with butter then spread them out and Sprinkle them with Salt. Peanuts were not meant to be a health food.1 know i should use less tall and i try bul i d rather do without peanuts than eat them without Salt. 9 it seems unfair that hunger should be a pleasant sensation for those of us who know where our next meal is coming from when it s such a terrible feeling for so Many people in the world. For those of us whore fortunate hunger merely heightens our anticipation of a Good meal. We re always seeing pictures of poor and starving people in he third world being Given their rations of Grain. What do they do with it to make inedible most americans would starve if All they got was a Small portion of uncooked flour or meal. You d have to give them a cake mix. Don t bring up the subject of grits if you re among southerners. They All have opinions about them and each opinion is different. The chances Are you would t like grits any Way they fixed them. Last summer president Reagan took Nancy outto a restaurant on her birthday. The reagans must yearn for privacy and yet even they apparently enjoy the ambience of a crowded restaurant. Popovers Are Roy idea of a great breakfast. The secret is a very hot oven. I get hungrier As i eat. By the time i be finished lunch i could eat another plus a quart of ice Cream. Of All the jobs i hate in the Kitchen the wont is cleaning out the garlic press. I still can taste the canned peas they fed us in the school cafeteria. My Mother often opened a can of peas As a vegetable to have with dinner Loo. I always surprised to see that they still sell canned vegetables. Canning vegetables was probably a great invention in its time but thank goodness its Lime has passed. The average loaf of commercial while bread is softer than my Pillow and does t taste As Good. We be been through a lot of food fads in our House. Well have something twice a week for a year and then in drops out of our repertoire and we won t Bave it twice a year. We used to have flank Steak Al the time and one year i made waffles for breakfast just about every sunday morning. We Haven t had flank Steak or waffles in a year now. To does t seem As though we eat Ai Many Pota toes As we once did. I suspect that the More Money people earn the fewer potatoes they Eai. I be become so suspicious of what they make hotdogs out of thai never eat one anymore. Take me out to the ballgame but skip the Hotdog. The single most idiotic Paradox in the world is that we have a great surplus of food rolling in Ameri can storehouses while elsewhere people Are starving. If civilization can t work out that problem with one of its economic systems such As capitalism or communism there s no Hope for either of them. Eyeball to eyeball on Daniloff Case Byar Buchwald the most important question to be answered about the Daniloff affair is which Side blinked first this was what the press asked president Reagan when he announced thai the reporter was being re leased by the soviets. The president replied Wilh a stiff upper lip they blinked. We did t give i believe president Reagan. What is distressing is that the president s Highl Wing supporters do not. They have been trumpeting charges that the United states caved in and gave Moscow a Victory. The question of who blinks first has become More important than arms control As far As the superpowers Are concerned. Some people even say that the survival of the human race hangs on it. Even amongst the country s Foremost blinking expert there is disagreement about the Eye movement of the leading players. The while House Blinkin Enship expert told me Daniloff Wai not swapped for Zakharov. There a no link Between the two men. The soviets gave up Dani Loff because they knew they were wrong and we gave up Zakharov because he was gelling to be a pain inthe 1 punted this the president says he did t it possible Secretary of state George Shultz blinked in his place Genje Shultz Doe Tat blink without Reagan s approval i be seen him blink on television coming out of Bego tiatia with die soviet foreign minister. He Wai bin Kim because of the to Light not Bee aus of a meeting with Shevardnadze. The ton Why people think that Shultz blinks u because he always looks u if he s dozing off at his own nevertheless the right Wing says because the United states blinked the soviets no longer believe Well use the Well the right Wing is i decided to find out How the Daniloff release was playing in Moscow. I called the Kremlin collect. I understand you people blinked in order to get your spy Back i said. ".s.r. Never blinks the red expert said. Is . That blinked.
