2. My dear mix...
I cannot recall ever having eaten a proper meal standing up...

Snacks, yes.

I just wanted a generic standing-eating picture and that popped up first.

Yeah, carnitas are yum.

Found this, it's the stand in the photo. Roque's Carnitas...get ready to salivate.

11. heh
"We are New Mexican, not Mexican," Mona explains. "That is why we use beef rather than pork, and flour tortillas rather than corn."

still looks and sounds delicious, even if not traditional carnitas

kind of made the bland chicken and rice we just had feel like hospital food:rofl:

13. I just had a gross can of soup (standing up, over the stove I might add).

NM has flour gordita tortillas, they're thicker...I've never seen them elsewhere.

6. I am looking forward to the day of a stand up meal...
When I visit Places like Tokyo and Osaka in the up coming years!

9. On Mondays and Thursdays, I eat lunch while driving from our Seattle clinic to our Issaquah clinic.
Today: roast beef sandwich, a cookie, and pomegranate-flavored water. :9

I don't enjoy food that way. I would wait to eat until I found a table and chair.

14. probably rarely twice a month
and I'm not sure that those few times would really qualify as a "meal"

15. 33% of my meals I eat standing up.
Protein shakes rarely go down easy. Best to chug fresh out of the blender, in the kitchen. Two of them each day.
