I think that it's the texture that gives me trouble. I also eat so doggone slow, and sometimes it gets cold by the time I finish. I have been buying Bob Evans frozen sausage, egg and cheese burritos-they aren't very spicy, and I get little packages of guacamole and put on them. I can also eat chicken wings if they aren't breaded as long as they are the "mild" variety. Maria, I see you are in Ohio, do you have "Frickers" near you? I can eat the shrimp there as long as it is the "mild" kind.
