Smoked Pork Tacos


Shhh...Don't Tell!


Hello fellow foodies, I know I sent a shock through your system with that Gouda Veggie Melt yesterday. Hey, I had to make baby girl happy, and so I did, and it was good.


But today, is all about meat loving, veggie hiding, Big Goo. OK, not to be talking behind Big Goo's back, but (what I really mean to say) is Big Goo needs to eat a little less meat. Yep, I said it, and I am sticking too it!


Big Goo needs to take a little bit of advice from baby girl, and cut back on some of his pork loving consumption. Is it going to happen, probably not, does Big Goo still have to eat, maybe so.


I told Big Goo we have to show unity and support for Baby Girls decision to go "almost vegan" and that means, eating meat, behind her back!


And so we did! Shhh...Don't Tell!
