ok, Saturday evening at my house, I get bored and decide to cook something up for supper. I have one of those El Paso Hard/Soft Taco kits. I have a can of Refried beans, taco mix and some lean ground chuck. I cook it all up and make the meat into more of a burrito mix and heat up the 6 hard shells and 6 soft shells, getting it ready for construction of my fabulous burritos.
Halfway through cooking, I realize that I was on the path to making burritos, but using taco shells.....so I came up with a name of the meal to honor our new President.
Burraco's for Barack Obama.
Anyone else ever do this? :help:

I hate when people do that. Except, of course, when someone decides to honor the worlds most intelligent talk radio host by naming a delicious cupcake after him.

I remember a nice little deli in south eastern PA that had a gimmicky menu, all the items had celebrity names. The fruit salad was appropriately called "The Liberace".

Sausage and Pepper Hicks...
It's not for the hipsters.
don't forget the "larry David" sandwich, featuring whitefish, sable, onions, cream cheese and capers.
