Title: HELP!!!!!!!!!
Post by: BJ on August 21, 2000, 02:49:59 PM
Dear List Members,
Can anyone help me with this last acronym from a list of sixty that I have just completed?
I'm really stuck and it's driving me mad!
Here it is:

11 = D.H. and S. (F.L.G.)

These are not well known acronyms.
THANKS!

11 = D.H. and S. (F.L.G.)

I'm usually no good at those, but it just came to me... I'm not sure about the D (I always thought it was Secret...) but the rest is Herbs and Spices (Finger Licking Good)

Is "Finger Licking Good" used as a metaphor for the cruder version (ie: F***ing Good) ?

No! LOL.

It means exactly what is says... the food is so good that you want to lick your fingers!

Of course this may have more than a little to do with the fact that they don't give you any cutlery ;-)

I think that's meant to be "Delicious"
