So, I've been on this baking kick. Healthy baking. Been using Christina's recipes which have just been to die for! Cinnamon Roll Cake, Chocolate Cake, Cheesecake, etc. Boy are they delish!!
Last Friday, I found this cheddar cheese cookie recipe online and thought to myself: if Christina can redo a recipe to be healthy, then I can give it a try too! And with only 3 ingredients, what could go wrong?? It was simple enough - flour, cheese, butter. Both Rhett and I love cheese, so what better than a cheese cookie fried up in the oven! So I subbed the flour with soy flour, the regular cheese with fat free cheese and the butter with Smart Squeeze. Put all together and make into 1 inch balls, refridge for 1 hour and then bake. So they looked funny baking and never did flatten out like the pic I found. So I used a spatula and flattened them, kind of. They smelled funny too. Must be the soy flour, I thought.
The time comes and they are done. I break one open and let it cool and take a bite.
BLEK!! GAG!!!
Tastes like dog poop. Seriously. Had to spit it out in the garbage can.
Rhett is in the back room watching TV. I don't tell him they taste like sh*t. I plan on tossing them as soon as they cool off. I go about my business…surf online, etc. 30 min's or so passes and I walk up the hallway and turn around and say:
"Hey! The cookies are done! Were you going to try one?" ...heh heh heh
Rhett: "Yep! I was just getting up to come get one."
Now, I have a really hard time keeping a straight face. But somehow I held back the laughter and just smiled sweetly. He grabbed one. Took a bite. Started to tell me how good they were…but I could not contain the laughter any longer and basically lost it. At which point he started to gag. I was laughing so hard that tears were streaming down my face and I had to use the fridge to hold myself up. He first went to the garbage can and spit it out. Then he went to the kitchen sink and put his head under the facet to rinse his mouth out. Including using his hand to wipe off his tongue to get it all off! LOLOL…
Rhett: "Why does it taste like dog poop? What's wrong with them? That's just nasty!"
Meanwhile, I had to take a trip to the loo before I pee'd my pants from laughter and then hide, because he came after me to whip my butt for tricking him! LOLOL...

hmmm - sounds like a good time was had by all!! ;)
hahahahahaha!!!!! funny..... :)
Jan, thanks for the laugh. :) One question though...is this how you normally are around the kitchen?
Hah! Bob, you're funny! I actually am a great baker...one of the many reasons im fat! LOL...love to make cakes, cookies, etc.
And I pose this question: how come both you and Rob said it tastes like poop? I'm curious as to how you both know what poop tastes like. Do you normally eat poop and thought, "Oh, this doesn't taste any different than poop and they really should because they're cookies"?
Hhhmmmmm ... I ponder the poop.
ya know, Tina, i came THIS CLOSE to putting a disclaimer in there to you saying "no Tina, we don't know what poop tastes like" but didn't....boy was i dumb! LOL...
I am a firm believer that if one is going to bake, then use the real stuff. No low-fat, soy, applesaucy, skim, wheat or otherwise.........
You have only confirmed my thoughts.
I thank you!!
If you want a cookie, eat a fucking cookie! There, I said it.
; )
Sue! LOLOLOL....
