Even salmiak (NH4Cl) flavoured licorice?  I can't say I dislike it - interesting flavours are interesting flavours, but I haven't quite got my head around ammonium chloride being a desired additived.

Eating baby bananas, to make up for earlier indiscretions with Amrikan chocolate bars (Take 5, Almond Joy).
WWDDD?

Opsa

Ammonium Chloride?!?!

I like licorice that tastes like licorice. Like Panda Bars!

Had cold pizza for lunch.

By my horned Viking helmet, I swear that liqurice shall be salty and not sweet! Ammonium chloride all the way!  ;)

Ooh, I loves da licorice!

Lind- my tuna salad is very simple, just drained tunafish (I prefer the solid white kind packed in water- kitty, who is otherwise aloof, will sit up and beg for the juice), a couple of dollops of Miracle Whip salad dressing (I don't like it as well with generic or mayo), a stick of chopped, fresh celery and a couple dashes of celery salt. Stir it up and serve on lettuce or in a sandwich. That's it.

I just had a very nice bowl of asparagus soup.

Thanks for the description! OK, so it's a salad-tending-towards-a-spread sort of thing. While they can certainly be nice, I am personally not so fond of them, and prefer my tuna to be in distinctive lumps. Then again, the celery in your salad should give it a nice crunch, so perhaps I ought to give it a try?

I sometimes make a tuna/anchovy baugette where I toast the bread, perhaps rub it slightly with a garlic clove, and then add on a few anchovies with their oil, some tuna, perhaps some sliced tomatoes and peppers, a squeeze of lemon and some black pepper. I got sort of hooked on them some years ago on a trip to Spain, but I suppose I have kicked the worst of the addiction by now. ;)

On the subject of Tuna salads:

Boiled cold potatos chopped in not too small pieces
Tinned tuna (in oil or water as preferred)
Green apple finely chopped
mayo a dollop or so to make it juicy
and some sort of chilli or cayenne powder 

It's good picnic food, especially as filling in bread-rolls.
Unfortunately I can't east it any more as I've become allergic to raw apples...

Eating: Omelet with Hungarian paprika salami and fresh tomatoes.

Knurrhähne sind eßbar aber empfehlen würde ich das nicht unbedingt.
The aspitriglos is edible though I do not actually recommend it.

Poutine
It's a hack but what the heck, I got the craving and making it isn't really as hard if you're willing to cut some corners ;), I got some canned gravy (mixed beef with chicken), bought some fries from that demonic franchise, and cut some cheese into cubes, heat the gravy with the cheese in the microwave, and drop hot over the fries. Mix and enjoy. I know it isn't the real stuff but I'm not precisely in Montreal...
I think you are the first person I have ever heard of who has made home-made poutine. Not even an expat Qubecoise that is married to a friend of mine has tried!  :o

Here's another take on poutine, with lots of nice food-porn pictures:

Food porn indeed! I wish I could taste the real thing now!

Ah, poutine.  One of the few genuinely Canadian (albeit Quebecois) foods out there, but hard to find a properly prepared one this far west.

Made a jumbo pot of borscht for dinner, and will probably be eating it for days.
WWDDD?

Aggie

Wild mushrooms - Hericium coralloides (new one for me, but safely identifiable with no dangerous look-alikes) and some shaggy manes, which are in season and available for picking in the downtown core.  :D
WWDDD?

Smoked sockeye - a couple of hot-smoke variants and some maple-cured deliciousness.

I have a problem, I bought another smoker....
WWDDD?

A whole yellow watermelon.

Well, not the rind, but the rest, and it aten't a mini one.
