A few weeks ago, I saw a hilarious video on the internet in which British high school students are offered biscuits and sausage gravy for the first time. The students were incredulous because in Britain a biscuit is a cookie. The white, lumpy gravy looked disgusting to them. But when they tried it, almost all of them thought that it was delicious. After watching the video, I had a craving for biscuits and gravy, something which I had not eaten in ages.
Although biscuits and sausage gravy is primarily a breakfast dish served in the Southern states, Bob Evans, a chain of restaurants that originated in Ohio, has it on their menu. Our first morning in Ohio, we went to the Bob Evans not far from our hotel. I ordered a breakfast platter that included biscuits and gravy topped with eggs, with bacon, ham and home fries on the side.
It was typical of the enormous breakfasts that Bob Evans serves, and my craving for biscuits and gravy was satisfied for a few years.
