Today's expression is midnight snack.
Midnight snack.
I love to have the midnight snack.
Any midnight snack is good for me.
What is your favorite midnight snack?
Midnight snack.
Midnight.
Everybody is one word.
M-I-D-N-I-G-H-T snack.
S-N-A-C-K.
Midnight snack.
Now, when we say midnight in America, we think 12 o'clock, 12 a.m.
But actually, 11 p.m., 12 a.m., 1 a.m., 2 a.m., all this area, this time is still kind of midnight.
A midnight snack. is when you go to bed and you fall asleep.
I'm hungry.
You wake up hungry like a zombie.
You walk to the refrigerator.
You open the refrigerator and you start eating.
Now some midnight snacking people, they actually use a fork or a spoon, even a bowl and a plate.
Some midnight snacking people actually use a microwave or an oven.
But many professional midnight snack loving people only use their hands.
Yeah.
Midnight snack.
Now, my dad, this is a secret, but I'm going to tell you guys a secret.
My dad loves the midnight snack.
And I'll tell you how he does it and what he loves after you check out the dialogue.
Here we go.
What are you doing?
Hiding the leftover steak.
Why?
I want it for my midnight snack tonight.
Don't tell dad.
Oh yes.
We talked about leftovers yesterday.
Leftovers steak.
And I know some of you are vegetarians.
Okay, just change steak to tofu burger.
Okay, so when I say steak, I want you to think tofu burger.
Oh, I love barbecued steak tofu burger, especially day old steak tofu burger.
Oh, it's so delicious.
I really do like it.
Now, let's go back to my dad, though.
My dad goes to bed religiously.
He goes to bed every night between 9 and 10 p.m.
And every night between 11 p.m. and 12 a.m., he gets up.
He goes to the freezer.
Takes a spoon.
Opens the ice cream.
Opens the container.
And eats ice cream.
No bowl.
Just a spoon stands there eating ice cream.
I think I believe my dad thinks that nobody knows this.
Well, dad, sorry.
Now, several thousand people around the world know this.
My dad.
I don't think my dad listens to my podcast.
He's too old.
He doesn't care.
Whatever.
Now me, what do I do?
My favorite midnight snack?
You know, I don't know.
I love everything.
And I'll eat anything.
But I must say, at midnight, I'm serious.
Leftover meat. tofu burgers.
That's the best for me.
That's the best.
The problem is you got to brush your teeth.
But well, you know me, I don't I brush my teeth once a week.
That's good enough for me.
So what is your favorite midnight snack?
Is it ice cream?
Is it steak?
Is it tofu burgers?
Is it a salad?
Is it cookies cake?
Is it a beer?
Can a beer be a midnight snack?
