I'm in love with a Reuben

Have you ever discovered something late in life and come to wonder how it is that you could've subsisted without it for over 2 decades?! Well, I arrived at said realization when I took my first bite of the scrumdidliumptious marvel known as a Reuben sandwich.

MY.
WORD.

It was the perfect combination of corned beef slash pastrami, (I play no favorites), thousand island dressing reminiscent of everyone's childhood memory of a Big Mac, grilled sauerkraut, and melted swiss cheese on toasted rye. Since my explosive flavor discovery, I've hit up pubdives far and wide trying out each establishment's take on this infamous culinary creation and my love handles are proof of my unyielding devotion.

Sodium levels are higher than Snoop Dogg (oka severe water retention) and my cravings have increased exponentially...so for the sake of my health, I hope this act of quarter life overcompensation comes to a screeching halt sooner than later!

My goodness that looks mouth watering. I get weighed by the gyno today, but I may need to pack a reuben for afterwards. Just what my former ankles need, more bloat, less bone.
