Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

The worst cleanup I ever experienced involved dogs eating stuff they shouldn't and couldn't hold down. Enough said.
In FL, we had Royal Castle. Kinda like White Castle-I guess. I've never been to a White Castle.(There's one in the Orlando area-just opened. Biggest one ever. I need to visit.) RC's were 24/7, same mini-burgers-long b4 they were called sliders-birch beer, Navy bean soup, chili, lemon meringue pie, all from their own bakery/distribution center in Miami. After BK opened up(also started in Miami), RC tried to compete as a 'family' fast food joint. Bad move. They lost.Residue from their patrons. Industrial cleaning agents have no effect on it, which is why WH doesn't waste any effort or material applying any.
In my "night shift" years, I was a regular patron of Krystal (the southern White Castle equivalent), Steak'n'Shake, IHOP, Krispy Kreme, and Dunkin' Donuts (before they went all "upmarket"). But once in a Waffle House at the behest of a walking-heart-attack acquaintance was enough for me to draw a hard red line across that ever happening again.
Loved RC; never liked BK.The Baltimore-Washington area had the Little Tavern, with the awesome slogan "Buy 'em by the bag!"
They were typically small carry-out operations with a few seats inside in a bar-style configuration.

I guess a lot of towns had their own regional chains like this back then.

Our family pet dog Otto ate a pound of chocolate dipped cherries I bought my father for Christmas

To reiterate...Our family pet dog Otto ate a pound of chocolate dipped cherries I bought my father for Christmas
That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger!
I assume he survived.

In this lifetime of assorted living arrangements where the icebox is No Man's Land, nobody ever liberated my Limburger cheese.
Maggots like cheese. I would avoid this one.
Fromage au fly(edit: mouche, voler).

Maybe your dad liked the chocolate cheeries and didn't want to share. Not the first time the dog would get blamed for things that he didn't do.

Thank Gaia that it's not French.
And you should be over 80 to go to Cracker Barrel. It's a rule but it's not enforced.
That's why my Dynaco stereo speakers have new grills. Cat took care of the bottom third of the originals. Only took me 30 some odd years to get around to making new ones.
Never been to a Cracker Barrel and I'm not going to start now, nor 18 years from now!And you should be over 80 to go to Cracker Barrel. It's a rule but it's not enforced.
Ewww...That is so totally gross.
Makes you wonder what a person who eats that would be thinking right before they do.
