1) Tomato Aspic – The world is a worse place because of tomato jello.

2. The features section. I have “human interest” written all over me.
3. Eduardo Mangione. Retired mafia accountant. Living in the golf community of Pueblo West. “My friends call me Mr. Mangione.”
4. Tres leches cake. ‘Cause I’m sweet and creamy and kind of mushy.

1) Liver. Just no. Filters aren’t food.

3) Reno Morgantae from Tucson, Arizona. I lease medical equipment to major health groups.
4) I’d be a carrot cake. You think awesome cake, then fuck it’s got vegetables in it, this cake sucks.
