I had a salad last night. Then I read this and decided I'd better sleep with one eye open, just in case.  :mrgreen:

Dave visits some of the weirdest websites.....

But speaking of non-vegetarians, I just put about two pounds of ribs marinated in apple and lemon juice into the smoker with a nice rub on top.

(And anticipating the comebacks, don't any of you go rubbing my smoker!)

Does this mean we will have PETV (People for the Ethical Treatment of Vegetables) throwing chlorophyll on people as they sit at sidewalk bistros eating salads?

Which means: Be good to your "sweet leaves", talk gently to them ("nothing will ever happen to you", "our relationship is just smoking") and then when the little THC bearer is unsuspecting and high - slaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaash!!!!
