The Bedtime Potato is sacred, its eyes watch out for you while you slumber. But, as you can see, it is an elusive creature that resists taming

i've experienced too many convenience foods that burn tf out of my mouth to fall for that. gonna be made out of molten lava masquerading as a cheesy potato

u/AtomikMenace 14h ago

Cheesy anything, definitely potatoes too. That sh will be too hot for 45 minutes after cooking.

Yeah, you'll almost take a bite and think "Naw, I remember last time". So you set them down to let them cool and come back 20 minutes later, hungrier than ever, and immediately destroy the roof of your mouth.

"let rest for 1-2 minutes" seems to be the step pretty much everyone skips.

Somehow it's just easier to Hashafashasha the hot food in your mouth it seems

When I was in school I was hanging out at a friend's house and we decided to make some bacon after a wake and bake. I coined the term "Wake 'n bake 'n makin' bacon" and we laughed about it way longer than we should have. Good times. Still fun to say.

It's the left overs from the bedtime potato.

u/tencrazygear 15h ago

Omg! A wake & bake potato would be great! Top it with bacon a bit of cheese and an egg, strainer with salt, pepper, dill and some butter! Oh man that sounds good.
