Read More ›A friend I had in college loved taking road trips. Not so much for where they’d take him, but for what they represented in his mind as an opportunity to eat all the ‘food’ he’d deemed ‘naughty’ and therefore suitable for the occasional trek from LA to Palm Springs or something of the like.
