I gotta lox in the next race so it’ll be overseas slammin salmon cuisine for me. Have Irish lox. It will set you free.

I knew Scandinavians were into lox. Not Irish. I bet it is quite different from the lox i know. Sodium content on Murican lox is around one third. Next opportunity gonna get the traditional jewish bagel, lox, onion, and cream…[Read more]
