Hot Tottie

June 29th, 2004

It is very coincidental that Jason (see 2 posts below) discussed mini foods in detail. See, a few weeks ago I was prompted by Napoleon Dynamite?s (in theatres now!) website to question select co-workers and friends about mini foods. Tots, in particular.

You may have come across tater tots in your day-to-day adventures, not to be confused with potato wedges. In the east coast, we call potato wedges “taters”, and the first (and last) time I attempted to order “taters” in Toronto, I was met with evil stares. People are very politically correct about their potatoes here, it would seem. Anyway, I digress. So tater tots are these little nuggets of crispy potato to be enjoyed on occasion (or as often as you want if you?re not watching your girlish figure). However, sometimes lines must be crossed, new boundaries discovered.

If you could take any food except for potatoes and create a tot from it, what would you choose? I say pudding tots. Don?t tell me it?s impossible; this is a hypothetical question.

Here are other suggestions I received:

Cheese Tots

Banana Tots

Chili Tots

Yam Tots, but since they’re potato family, ice cream tots

Chocolate Tots

Bacon Tots

Pizza Tots

Turkey Tots

Burrito Tots

Squash Tots

Donair Tots

Mary Kate and Ashley Tots?!?!?!

Don?t ask me about the last one, cause I don?t know what to tell you. Now, hand over the tots, foo?!
