D is for DumDum

Here we are... already in the 4th week of my journey with food through the alphabet. I think this is my 7th TT post? Wow... time flies!

1. DumDums - This little pops are so cute. I like to pass them out to my students when they get a question right. Ironic?
2. Doritos - Just like the Cheetos from last week, my favorite part is licking the cheesy residue off my fingers.
3. Duck - I ate this for the first time when I was in China. I was amazed at how much I liked it.
4. Donuts - Krispy Kreme??? Take my advice, don't try to eat these warm with ice cold milk. When it all mixes up in your stomach, the feeling isn't right.
5. Drumsticks - This is my favorite piece of the bird. I love cold, fried chicken and would eat both drumsticks if the dark meat wasn't as good for you as the white meat.
6. Drumsticks - This is one of my favorite ice cream novelties. I remember getting them from the ice cream truck when I was a kid.
7. Dumplings - I've only really had these at Cracker Barrel, though I do have a package of frozen dumplins in my freezer.
8. Dates - I ate my first one when I was teaching VBS in high school. It was much stickier and sweeter than I thought it would be. I should try them again some day.
9. Dill - I've already made it clear that this is my favorite spice.
10. Dip - Onion Dip, spinach-artichoke dip, cheese dip, anything that I can scoop onto a hearty tortilla chip or ruffles is A-OK in my book!
11. Daichon - I have no idea what this is. Isn't it kind of like a radish? I'd google it, but am trying to avoid that. I hope someone leaves a comment telling me.
12. Do-si-dos - I am not a fan of this particular Girl Scout Cookie, even though it does contain peanute butter. I am told though that they are quite popular in my area, along with Samoas, something else I don't understand.
13. Deer Meat - Technically this is called venison, but my V list is still a long ways off and you will have forgotten by then that I have already used this food. I've had it once that I can recall and it was sooooo... yummy! Anyone want to kill a deer and have me over for dinner? I'll bring the bacon to wrap it in.
