Ah... biscuits and gravy. A wonderfully fond memory from my time at SIU-Carbondale (a moment of silence for Hot Stacks, a wonderful little diner on The Strip in Carbondale.)I'm a fan of the show Daria (formerly broadcast on MTV), and as such, I'm active in the Daria fandom. Anyway, one of the fans from Argentina had mentioned that she'd never heard of 'biscuits and gravy', and wondered whysomeone would want to do that (put gravy on biscuits) let alone eat it from breakfast.
The wonders of language. What I meant by 'biscuits', she undestood as 'cookies'. Anyway, I hijacked the Wikipedia entry for biscuits and gravy (along with this gret photo of the dish in question) and posted it over on the Paperpusher's Message Board (or PPMB), the main Daria fandom site. That started upa little thread about breakfast foods...
Yeah, boring... but very tasty.

But by gravy do you mean "sausage gravy" (elsewhere known as the Ambrosia of Gravies) or do you mean that watery brown substance that dogs won't eat?
