The Chicago three-dick salute
Food is Stupid
<p>Hi, clowns!</p><p><strong>Thanks for being patient while I played a bit of catch-up.</strong> I didn’t mention why we went to Canada the other week, because it was for a hard reason, and I didn’t want to spoil <a href="https://foodisstupid.substack.com/p/three-penis-wine-salt">the three-penis wine salt vibe</a> (which was glorious, by the way). We were there to try and say goodbye to Davida’s aunt, but she passed away the day before our flight.</p><p>Don’t worry, we spent the time well with her cousin and family, so it wasn’t a depressing trip. Plus, we ate four types of poutine in three days, and our rental car service randomly upgraded us to a fucking Mercedes-Benz. If they only knew that I’m blind in one eye. (Don’t worry, I sprang for the added insurance.)</p><p>Unfortunately, I should probably also bring up another subject that hasn’t been so great. As you guys know, we live in Chicago, which is in a really horrific spot right now. The national news hasn’t shown all of what’s going on, but we happen to be in a neighborhood that’s being targeted by ICE. <strong>What’s occurring right now is very real, and both Davida and I are feeling scared and helpless. </strong>But more than anything else, we’re pretty fucking pissed. In the meantime, we’re trying to figure out how to help. </p><p>What’s been pretty encouraging is seeing just how Chicagoans have been banding together to peacefully protect each other, no matter how much we’re being provoked. Chicago is a beautiful city, despite what the world thinks it to be, and it’s our home. Despite all this, I am still going to keep the Food is Stupid mood going, just know that this really is all happening in front of our very eyes (and even on our actual street).</p><p><strong>As promised, I dug through the comments on the three-penis wine salt experiment from the other week, and looked to see which ones were viable enough to pull off for today. </strong>Man, some of you wanted me to get fairly complicated! You suggested I look for bull testicles (I have no idea where to get those), make spotted dick (if your dick has spots, please see a doctor), and make three-penis wine salt-baked cod. </p><p>But since you all now know we’ve been a bit preoccupied, I decided that Davida and I could use a real stiff drink and a snack.</p>
