Newman

Being a young adult throughout the 90's, I was, of course (despite going through most of it as I am now, sans TV), a huge Seinfeld fan.  My favorite character on the show was none other than..........NEWMAN!! (Hello, NEW-man!!!)  But not stand-alone Newman.  Only when he was interacting in some way with Jerry - and you could just feel the disdain those two had for each other, especially Jerry over Newman...hilarious stuff!

One of my favorite scenes involving those two was in the Kenny Rogers Roaster episode, when Jerry catches Newman smuggling an order of it to Kramer's place after Kramer had sworn off of it because he had become addicted.  When Newman tries to pass off the side order of broccoli in the bag as his own, Jerry calls him out by saying, "you wouldn't eat broccoli if it was deep-fried, then dipped in chocolate!"

That got me to thinking -- what about deep-frying/chocolate dipping, all different sorts of food that many people in general can't stand?...Brussels sprouts?...lima beans?...
