Getting to Ikea from PH

I always get sucked in by the meatballs (what are they, like 18 for 35 cents?), but I always feel worse for the wear later...

I'm sorry, those things are dog food.
My Minnesota Hot Dish spouse goes right for 'em tho . . .


They're the meat version of ikea furniture--they look like meat on the outside but inside it's a bunch of stuff chopped up and pressed together.

This is all so very true. However; I justify my eating them essentially because:
1. I eat them perhaps once every 1-2 years.
2. I never, ever eat at fast food restaurants - this is the closest I get.
3. Lingonberry sauce, baby!
4. My husband hates cream sauces, so I'd never make these at home.
5. Sometimes it's nice to... cleanse the digestive system.

I like the hot dogs and ligonberry soda.

ooh. and I like the non-martinelli's ligonberry NA bubbly.

Just FYI, I read this not-too-encouraging item on Consumerist about Ikea's delivery service not too long ago:
