Mogen David is a very popular wine. It seems to have two main groups of fans.
1 People who like a sweet drink before/during/after/well after dinner. This group includes salmon deprived diners.
2 People who live under bridges. Yes, it is true. The MD in MD20/20, sometimes called "Mad Dog" wine, stands for Mogen David. Look under any bridge in an urban area and you will find lots of empty mad dog bottles. Many in this group got here by excessive dwelling on salmon deprivation.
One song I know makes reference to "Mad Dog Margueritas in the Chili Parlour Bar". I have yet to try this delight, but it sounds tempting. In truth I am just too cheap to risk the four bucks on something I might not like, or might like so much it would be added to my long list of excesses.
Is there a gentle MD member who can enlighten us on this point? Perhaps two recent bloggers could be so kind as to experiment with this, and inform the rest of us on its palatability. It might even take their minds off of lost salmon and roasted dog meat. Thank you for calling me 'gentle'.. I am also kind, compassionate, caring, thrifty, and love my mother.
But I digress.. (Jj is still a bit sensitive about that damned salmon.)
My wine adventures go back a very long time.
My mother, who had become an apostate of a prior religous affiliation, made me become a gentile. I went from kosher to living under a bridge. (Thus the lack of training for my companion..the dog that is..)
Such is God's wrath.
I am fond of Mogen David. I especially like grape.
I like the round bottles as when empty I can make candle holders for my shelter under the bridge.
In regard to the salmon..
IT WAS'NT MY FAULT!
