Mr. Hillman: KEEP! Mrs. Hillman: Mystery macaroni. Mr. Hillman: KEEP! Mrs. Hillman: Today's slightly wilted salad. Mr. Hillman: Toss it! no one wants to look at THAT again!

And it looks like the carbohydrates have shown their appreciation by sticking around.

They need to do what I did and just toss it all (except things that actually keep more than a couple days, like condiments and eggs). On second thought, let the IL’s eat that gross old garbage and see what happens, lol! Get them in the hospital with food poisoning and when they get out, have a room in a nice home (not theirs!) waiting for them ;)

Too bad they’re not as kind to their daughter-in-law.
The vegetables are also carbohydrates. They’re just better for you than the processed foods that they want to keep.

How do the carbs last a day, let alone a week in THAT house?
Mine don’t last longer than tomorrow. The salad pushes the tasty carbs through, so you can eat more tasty carbs sooner. Eat your salad last like they do in Italy.
Lightenup is right vegetables are carbs.
Lasagna is more likely higher in protein (meat and cheese), than it is in carbs (small amount of macaroni and sauce) but however it’s made, how does lasagna ever last a week?
Who SAVES fries??? How do they even get into the refrigerator?

They’re right about one thing – “no one wants to look at ‘that’ again” – so why don’t they just leave so no one will have to?!!

@MrsLukeSkywalker… LOL! I just read your comment from yesterday. I knew you’d have fun with that one. I may not agree with you all the time, but I sure have fun reading your comments, and I’m glad you got a kick out of mine. :-)

Thanks lightenup. We can’t all agree all the time, and when we don’t, oh well, not a big deal, but I know I’d rather have fun with you guys than be dragged into arguments by certain people over stupid things like opinion, or end up defending myself all the time. Nobody wants that. I come here to laugh, even at FBOFW, well the comments there anyway.
