Appetizer naming contest!!

We're going to put cheddar jalapeno poppers on the menu. Yeah, yeah, I hear you out there- No, we're not becoming Chili's. But people love 'em and damn if the little bastards aren't tasty.

So, to avoid the Chili-ization of Forbidden Island, I want to call them something else. So hit your menu archives (or arkiva tropika) and come up with a good name for them. You guys know the drill- something like Bora Bora Bites.

This is just some quick fun- so post asap because I'm picking a winner today. Winner gets on the menu and two fingers of some of our finest rum.

Go!

Genius! This one gets my vote!

The poppers are the Americanization (if that's a word?) of the culture of Mexico, just like tiki was the Americanization of the South Seas.

Thank you Spork Boy of Justice, Vampiress RN, Lake Surfer and Cynfulcynner for the kind words.

I want to keep trying though so how about -

• Fiji Fillers
• Easter (Island) Eggs
• Bligh’s Revenge
• Bougainville Bits or Bites*

*I was going to suggest Bimini Bits until I realized Bimini was in the Bahamas. Boo!


Tomorrow's bad for me – Maybe Thursday, Drinks around 4:00. You, me and the ghost - Trader Vic's?
