The Food of January 16th

Our day of traveling did not include the most exciting meals but nonetheless our stomachs were filled. For breakfast I ate a sort of breakfast burrito but it still followed the food rule of the trip, which is

“No fast food”. In the breakfast burrito or wrap was egg, cheese, sausage. My meal was consumed around 8 30 am Indianapolis time and didn’t eat another full meal until 1 30 pm San Francisco time. If you do the math that is a long time for a growing boy to go

without food but my lunch was without at doubt the best meal of the first day. In my given hour at the Fishermen’s Warf I ate fresh clam chowder in a bread bowl with a little addition of salt and pepper. The hardest part of the day was trying to eat this not so carefully planned out meal of mine. The clam that was in the soup was so fresh that it could have had a name. The bread bowl was almost stale but that didn’t affect me from enjoying my meal.

After enjoying a warm bowl of soup our touring began and didn’t end until around 6 pm. My last meal of the day

consisted of cheese and pepperoni pizza. California pizza is never considered the but the reason why I liked the pizza was because it was food. I was so hungry I could have probably ate anything that was placed in front of me. The pizza was so hot that once the pizza boy removed the white cardboard boxes from the black sack that steam slowly rose up out of it. As soon as I bit into my slice of cheesy greasy pepperoni pizza the roof of my mouth burnt incredibly fast. The cheese gently slipped off as I finished my first bite and feel gently onto my plate. After finishing off my seventh piece I called it a night and stopped eating for the first day. The pizza as a whole, was far form the best but then again far from the worst.
