Don't listen to Madam Applebee's there (good gawd, how could anyone take advice on food from anyone whose favorite restaurant is freakin' Applebee's?!?). This is pretty good. I'm definitely going to try the apple variation, though. I mean, c'mon -- pork chops and applesauce! (And you've gotta say it in that Peter Brady/bad Humphrey Bogart voice.)
