I thought we were doing the Pizza thing?

Who says we aren't?  Irish Bacon is a perfectly acceptable pizza topping, especially when you're using beer mustard as the sauce, and a mix of Dubliner and Mozzarella as your cheeses.

We may need to acquire some Hellion genes for the Delivery People.  But preferably not the crazy person ones.  We want them fast, not nuts.

Mozzarella and Munster works good to.  However, I am totally venturing a guess that Munster cheese is named for Munster, the province of Ireland, and not some other Munster :)  (I've always erred on that side that indeed it is). 

Personally, Peperoni and Bacon is a simple and hard combo to beat.   

And the secret of the Papa John's Heat Transit is that the bags are lined with the same stuff they make those foil-looking emergency blankets.  And them telling us it was alien technology...   Charlatans! 





So, we're all braced for anything, really - or, we should be - according to the measure that I take from responses.  About what I was thinking.  All I know is it's awesome not knowing BT's future :)

Actually, Munster is a French* Cheese.  But no reason we can't use it.

Pepperoni, Bacon, and other various pig products make for good "standard" pizza toppings.  I do so enjoy nonstandard pizzas though (and luckily, a local pizza place supplies EXCELLENT ones.  We swap ideas from time to time).

And we're braced for ANYTHING.  Because the Shark Foxes are up to something, and whatever it is, whether it's the conquest of Terra or the Conquest of Pizza Franchises, it's gonna be awesome!

*Okay, so it's Alsacian.

I had a suspicion it was a different kind of Munster  ^-^

What if in a case of art imitates life, the ilClan discovers the joys of Pizza and other IS decadence, grows fat and complacent and then is easily ousted by the very people busily profiting from their slow demise?  So the ilClan plot and the pizza franchise plot all fit like clockwork.  Insidiously simple.

I think it would go more like feudal Japan.  There's a figurehead emperor ilClan who's "in charge", but everybody knows he isn't they aren't really running things, it's the Shogun Shark Foxes who's really in charge, but the illusion is maintained for form's sake.  Since it isn't the Shogun Foxes who's descended from deities conquered Holy Terra and all that.

http://www.cooksinfo.com/muenster-cheese  It seems as there is some debate to the origin of the cheese, as apparently a bunch of Irish Monks went to a monastery in the region the cheese "debuted".

And you've pretty much just explained Chandrasekhar Kurita's method of anti-Clan warfare right there.

Authorial epicness will be displayed at its finest if it evokes all that.

Ahhh ha!  So we're getting somewhere with the origins of Munster.   I think I'll have to check out Irish bacon soon, now that I keep thinking about it.


So, Uncle Chandy's will be the name of the true enemy of the children of Kerensky.  We'll see if they can deal with Sharkfox Sushi Kitchen, or the Hell's Horses Barbeque Shack, but its not bad.  He could also start a franchise of themed pubs with that name.   ;D

Is Irish Bacon like regular bacon, but with Guinness?

No, although I'm tempted to add that to my brine just for the sake of science.

In other parts of the world, American Bacon, which comes from the pig's belly, is called streaky bacon.  Another European variant of it would be pancetta, which uses wine in the curing process.

However, in England, Ireland, and Canada, you also get a food called "bacon" by curing some of the back muscles of the pig (typically, I use pork loin when doing this).  To distinguish them from streaky bacon, these back bacons tend to be referred to by their country of origin while in the states.  The cure for Irish Bacon typically includes molasses, and may or may not actually involve smoking the meat (I don't mostly due to a combination of time and not having a good place to smoke it).

It is actually far more authentically Irish than corned beef is (which is actually Jewish American).  Historically, cows were for the wealthy in Europe, thus, Irish Bacon being far more common as a peasant food.  When the Irish came to the US, they were looking for something similar to the bacon they had back home, and turned to their new Jewish American neighbors, who it turns out didn't do pork.  Thus, why "Corned Beef and Cabbage" kinda gets lumped in as the stereotypical Irish Meal.

In real life, I am in fact a cook at a preschool.  I've occasionally done Irish Bacon, but I'm rarely far enough ahead in terms of the food I have on hand to do that (as it takes at least a week to brine).

Hey, food's a great thing for merchants.  Everybody needs it, so your market is essentially "all of humanity", it never becomes obsolete, they need constant supplies, spheroid fatties get addicted and buy way more than they actually need....

I think you guys have latched onto the real reason to take Terra.
You need to claim the New York Tristate area to make proper pizza dough and bagels.  O0

I'd think if they didn't have good food, being confined and cramped on those Arks would make people revolt.

In reality the Sea Foxes/Diamond Sharks need to take Terra to dump Clusters of Undine Battle Armor into the oceans, like their stand on Vinton during the Wars of Reaving... now those freeborn pilots I would trial for to be part of my Galaxy!

The best pizza I've had isn't in New York.  On the other hand, I lived on the East Coast for twenty years and still somehow didn't make it to New York City, so I REALLY need to make the pilgrimage.  Let's conquer it.  For PIZZA!  AND BAGELS!  AND DELIS!

Who says we aren't?  Irish Bacon is a perfectly acceptable pizza topping, especially when you're using beer mustard as the sauce, and a mix of Dubliner and Mozzarella as your cheeses.

Dubliner with Stout, perhaps? Mmm, mix that in with a nice six-month old Provolone picante, and you'd have something with a bite worthy of a SharkFox.  ;D

Just as long as we don't have what happened in that one episode of Star Trek Voyager where Neelix's cheese somehow broke the ship.  We will produce our cheese planetside, thank ye very much!
