Personally, I hate this stuff, it tastes awful and it's thick and is hard to swallow, very tough, I hate it,. And it tastes awful. And does anyone seriously believe Santa even cares. He is much more into the cookies. And it really is awful tasting. Fruitcake is much better than eggnog.

With good booze is the only way I'll drink eggnog. Knob Creek is my preferred.

See, eggnog can't be any good if you have to add booze to make it palatable.

Just skip the nog and drink the booze.

*sits in the corner, eating fruitcake and sipping eggnog. And my eggnog has lots of nutmeg floating on top.

and for me it has to be the kind in a carton from the supermarket. I can see the possiblity of homemade eggnog being blucky, what with weird eggy consistency things going on.

It's like drinking milky snot.

Exactly. My long standing policy on eggnog is that I would rather drink a glass of snot. Eeeewww.

Meh. A good friend of ours makes it each year and sends it to our house. DH drinks is up. I might have one sip or so. Not really a fan.

I have never tasked egg nogg. (sounds like thise should be on a thread for revealing something about yourself no one knows, huh ?)

It just never looked appealing and something about the idea of whisked scrambled eggs to drink?
No thank you.

You're not putting enough rum in it.

Up here, they throw in some rum and call it "moose milk"

Skim milk I can tolerate. Whole milk makes me cringe. Eggnog? Just the smell makes me a little woozy...

I didn't know there were so many people who didn't like eggnog. I am tempted to buy some, but it's loaded with fat and calories. I don't drink rum, so mine in non-alcoholic, butI still want some.

Other peeps can have my fruitcake, though.

Quit bashing eggnog! It taste good, really good. Really, really, really good.
You're 100% wrong. That is all.

Posted by MKitty on 12-17-09 at 01:04 PM
I agree Tahj! I ADORE eggnog! I usually cut it half and half with milk so it isn't too strong, and then if you add rum....mmmmmm...LOVE IT!!!

In fact, I even made eggnog ice-cream the other day....yum....

Actually, I just rememebered the other thing I do with eggnog...put it in my coffee to make a festive coffee (instead of cream!) I have been enjoying eggnog in my coffee as a replacement for cream for the last two weeks!

I made egg-nog french toast most Christmas mornings. Mmmmm.

I like it in coffee instead of cream too! And I cut it with milk if I'm just drinking it plain.

Usually I only go through one carton, though. Then I'm done with nog for the year.

I enjoyed an Egg-nog steamer at Starbuck's the other day. YUM!

This is some kind of gentile thing, isn't it.


The thick opacity of the stuff always grossed me out. Plus I can't think of a less-appetizing sounding word than "nog". I'll just take the bourbon straight, thankyouverymuch. (I also prefer Knob Creek, Weltek).

It's the EGG part that puts me off, NOG I can live with (I liked him on DS9). Drinking eggs sounds nasty.

There was a dish I used to order from a Columbian restaurant called Ropa Vieja. Delicious but I'm glad they listed it in Spanish on the menu. "Old Clothes" doesn't sound so appetizing and I probably wouldn't have ordered it.



And thanks for the awesome siggie

"RE: The War On Eggnog"
Posted by J Slice on 12-17-09 at 01:24 PM
Ropa Vieja is basically yum incarnate.


I'm hell of ticked I don't have Photoshop anymore. I really need new sigs, but I can't make them. I so desperately need to make a new Mets sig. Glad you still love yours, though.

"RE: The War On Eggnog"
Posted by Seana on 12-17-09 at 09:44 PM
I feel your Photoshopless pain. I downloaded a freebie graphics program called GIMP, but either I'm too stupid to learn it or it sucks.


I made this sig a long time ago. RIP Seana's Photoshop Elements.

Egg nog = good. Fruitcake = bad.


Except for Jamaican Black Cake, which is very very good.

using eggnog (sans booze - I was nine) instead of milk for a nice bowl of Cap'n Crunch. Talk about your sugar rush...

I like eggnog. It's very rich and I have a low richness threshhold, so for me a little goes a long way, but I do enjoy it.

Question: Cold eggnog or hot? A few years ago I was at someone's house and they offered me an eggnog, which I accepted. I was then handed a mug of hot eggnog. I've only ever had it cold, so was a little put off by it hot.

I have has eggnog lattes and used egnog creamer in coffee, but that was more coffee than nog so it wasn't as odd.

Warm eggnog? The closer to body temp, the harder to tell from snot.


Eeewww, eeewww, and double eewww.
