Egregious Versions Of Osetra.

"I've caught you Richardson, stuffing spit-backs in your vile maw. 'Let tomorrow's omelets go empty,' is that your fucking attitude?" -E. B. Farnum

"Behold, I teach you the ubermunch. The ubermunch is the meaning of the earth. Let your will say: the ubermunch shall be the meaning of the earth!" -Fritzy N.

"It's okay to like celery more than yogurt, but it's not okay to think that batter is yogurt."

The dreaded Rachel Ray creature uses this acronym constantly on Food Network - for that reason and that reason alone, it shall never pass my lips.

Oh.

Oh.

The terms I dread are "veggies" "'shrooms". Utterly hideous.

EVOO I've felt to be a quick marker for what is indicated, appropriate for text but nor what one would actually say.

Does she pronounce it E-Vee-Oh-Oh, or Eee-Voh? Either one sounds too precious for my taste.

i've never gotten this clarified, but i think it means extra virgin olive oil.

I don't think the best isclarified.

perhaps a more exact word would be 'confirmed', lol

I will use the shortened versions or acronyms only when I am typing, because I am so darn slow! :biggrin:

When speaking I never say veggies or EVOO or S & P (salt and pepper), etc because i don't like the way it sounds.

but when you are a really slow typer.........................
