What the heck are Fred Flintstone steaks?  Is this Bruce's not so clever
way of referring to tomahawk ribeyes?  (Never had one, BTW.)  I can't
remember the last time I had green beans, don't use ranch seasoning or
salad dressing, and the only corn I've had recently was cornbread.

Really large steaks.  Images of Fred Flintstone show him with what
looks like a t-bone, a round steak, and some steaks that don't
seem to correspond to any real cut.  Of course, they are notionally
made from brontosaurus.  IRL, the cut most commonly called "Fred
Flintstone steak" is indeed a tomahawk ribeye.

I had green beans on Tuesday.  Ranch is what I order in a restaurant
if I'm not sure about their vinaigrette.  Ranch is rarely too sweet,
but vinaigrette often is.  It's been months since I had a side of
corn; I just don't like it all that much.

I'm trying to figure out what, in Bruce's little menu, would get
the ranch put on it since there's no salad.  I know there are
youngsters who will put ranch on anything:  pizza, french fries,
grilled cheese sandwich, quesadilla, pasta with marinara, rice,
macaroni and cheese.  So a ranch-loving person might put it on
any of those foods.

 I combined food items I read a lot more about here than
internationally. Before RFC, I had never heard of ranch, corn is
international, of course, but nowhere as popular as in the US and
green beans could also have been coleslaw.
