It may not be the most hearty of dishes, but is delicious when made properly. Why is quiche lambasted as a meal for the effete?

Using the word "effete" strikes me as very effete, quiche-eater.

true, it sounds like you've been called out on being effete for delicately nibbling on quiche. You'll have to fix the other effeteness going on in your life

The Macrina Bakery in Seattle makes a nice quiche that I eat more than I should. However, it's a more lighter, americanized version of quiche with just a few ingredients.

Depends on whether you're eating it with your legs crossed or not.

Ya, but we already know that the real reason you were in the army was because you're a fruit and you just wanted to see naked men's bodies.

Grab the quiche lorraine they sell at Wegman's - surprisingly decent for prepared food.
