What's Taters, Precious, huh? What's Taters?

I can't help it; I need to make another contest.

This time I'm hungry, so please share with me your stories about food! I want to smell it, I want to taste it, I want my belly to rumble while I read its delectable description!

I don't want to read about some dude who does a bunch of stuff and spends two sentences eating a burger. No. My appetite craves more sustenance than that.

Give me desserts, give me fruits, give me brains, give me racks of lamb dripping with juices! Give it to us raw and wrrrrrrrriggling!

Make it sizzle, make it fry, make it ooze and drip!

Just make it food. If blood's all you got, that doesn't cut it in my book; that's a beverage, folks, and with all that liquid consumption, I'd imagine that vampires spend most of their time trotting to the bathroom. So please none of the bloodsucking for this contest.

Rules to Enter By:
1. Proper spelling/grammar/punctuation please. This means no chatspeak.
2. Upper word limit is 5000; if you have a well-done food story that's longer, message me about it first.
3. Keep any swearing in line with the story plot.
4. Food and sex sometimes mix appetizingly; tasteful (haha, get it?)erotica is allowed. Please no gay/lesbian though; not my thing.
5. Expect a comment. I like to comment.
6. There is no rule six.
7. Points will go up as I get the good stuff!
8. If you desire a prompt, message me and I'll give you one. Please make sure the prompt is in your AN if you choose one.

Thanks to you all in advance; I expect a veritable feast, and I'll be sure to burp--I mean comment--for every entry.

      Sorry, not for this contest. I just want comestibles, not imbibables.
