Love that Frito Pie!


Frito Pie is a protein-rich casserole that should please any man who's gotta eat, indeed. Frito Pie is also a running gag on the FOX television program King of the Hill -- which, by the way, is a fine program for men who want to laugh their arses off.

Earlier today, I engaged in a short conversation 'bout Frito Pie with my colleague Mr. Jimmy. Imagine my surprise when I arrived home to discover an AOL link in which Frito Pie is a topic du jour!

Check this out:

"Pardners, for the record, Frito Pie is as follows ...

"[Frito Pie is] a package of Fritos laid on its back and opened like a cadaver with an incision (X, not Y). Hot chili (which, for the record has beef in it; there is no such thing as vegetarian chili; if you ever encounter authentic vegetarian chili then immediately look around the corner for a leprechaun and a unicorn) is ladled into the bag, and then the whole thing is drenched in shredded cheddar cheese. That's it: no sour cream, no taco lettuce, not even onions. The bag is placed on a paper plate if you're a pantywaist, and the whole mess is presented to you with a plastic fork, a plastic spoon, one (1) paper napkin which will disintegrate within ten seconds of being pressed into service, a beer, and a smile."
