Sets of threes:
Dairy
Grafton Village cheddar (the now-extinct Gold - aged three years)
Parmiggiano-Reggiano - from Italy of course
Whole milk - very cold, please
Fruits
Raspberries (with that milk!)
Blackberries (in cobbler)
Bananas (lotso K and good for primates of all stripes)
Vegetables
Odwalla carrot juice (carrots are OK, but this is way better)
Okra (stuffed with kheema and baked!)
Spinach
"Vegetables" that are really fruit
Squash - summer or winter, I love 'em all
Tomatoes - preferably a funky heirloom variety, right off the vine in the sunshine
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Meats
Hill Meats bacon
Homemade chicken soup
Ground lamb (good in lots of things!)
Grains
Jasmine or basmati rice
Sushi rice
Bob's Red Mill oats
Grains that have actually been made into something
Extra-crispy English muffins
That kick-ass crusty bread you get at good Italian joints, with olive oil and balsamic vinegar or harissa
Biscuits and gravy (maybe that counts in meat, too.)
Fats
Bacon fat - the best
Extra-virgin olive oil - also nice on the hands
Unsalted butter

BACON
Really good sashimi
Steak au poivre
Grains
Brown rice (I am serious)
Are oats a grain?
Grains of sand between my toes
Grains that have actually been made into something (keeping all of your answers)
