Day 3: Our Future, the Triple MMM

It tastes like just like a Manwich or Sloppy Joe, I swear.  Manly, yes, but wearing drag and strutting with crabby Maryland flare. Here in the land of pleasant living, we call it a Sloppy Josephine (Jehws-ephine, as spoken here). Or a Maryland Marshy Mushwich. Or a "Triple M."

Counting down

We're entering the middle of Vegan Week. It's no longer feeling like a penance for December's sins. More like a taste of the future instead. A sampling of the kind of food they'll make you eat if you ever go to space. The Triple M is full of protein and vitamins, and easily reconstituted with water. It wouldn't go bad in storage, and would stick to the plate even in weightlessness.
Just sayin'.

The Triple M is spicy, tangy and hearty, with a strong Old Bay flavor warming up the background. The sweet potatoes have a good desert herb aroma, along with a nice sweet-salty balance.

No green here. No meat either.
It's delicious. The future is MMM.

It tasted much better than my webcam let on

Shout out to Steve and Debbie Paderofsky! 

They're my cousins, and the people behind... 

Gator Ron's Zesty Sauces and Mixes
Ron was their close friend. He cooked all sorts of amazing sauces for barbecues, wings, bloody marys, and lots of other things until ALS made it impossible. Ron's wife and Debbie got together and remade all Ron's recipes in his memory. 

All money that they can squeeze from their operation goes to research to find a cure for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. 

They're all awesome. That goes for the sauce too! And it's showing up in restaurants and grocery stores around the DC-Baltimore area. Check them out.
