My mom always did it this way, but usually my dad snuck in the grainy mustard. At the grocery store around the holidays, they display the chili sauce and the jelly together on the end caps!

I love everything about this. Thanks for the awesome article!

I tend to find out if people are okay and if they have called anyone. Aside from jumping a battery, changing a flat, or taking someone to a gas station, I’m all but useless at a side of the road situation.

Is anyone going to cover the episodes like you’ve done for previous seasons? I really want to read someone’s take on the Season 3 premiere.

THAT LOOKS AWESOME

I’m a fiend for cottage cheese. In college, only one dining hall ever served it, and my friends knew to report immediately if they were all out.  I tend to go with a light sprinkling of salt and pepper, or have it alongside a baked potato.  I’ll have to try some of these and report back!

Yay for another American with my love of Cats does Countdown!

When I was young, my sister and I would go out for drives through the country. She was almost 7 years older than me and teenage angst meant that she didn’t want to sit at home, so she’d ask if I wanted to go for a ride. Out in the river bottoms northwest of our house, there were some narrow blacktop stretches that

Came here to say this. Thanks to Alton Brown’s excellent pie recipes, in which he uses a teaspoon or two of tapioca starch to thicken fruit pies and avoid the dreaded soggy bottom, I have so much more than I could ever use in a lifetime. I plan to experiment with it in soups to see if that’s legit, though Alton did

I’d like to see how many Jalops actually purchased the cars after seeing them here. Haha.

PREACH. This is the best Sunday morning breakfast. I don’t mind some of the fancified stuff, though. A pub near me toasts their roux for longer to get that nutty goodness and adds a bit more sage, and I would eat an old leather shoe with it, tbh.

But like...will you open the postmates bot with a code or something? Because it’s bold of you to assume that people won’t just steal these guys, bust them open and take whatever is inside.

I have an actual answer as to why this amazing pairing (FIGHT ME) originated in schools!

Parallel parking. There was no call for it in my small town when I was learning to drive. I knew the theory, but we all know that the reality is much different. I then had to parallel park my 2002 Taurus in a tight spot in a bigger city on a one lane side street in front of many witnesses. Let’s just say, I’ve

This is why you’re the best. 

Me: Researching new tires for my Honda Fit and contemplating the winter vs all season debate, as well as how much I want to pay for said tires given my mediocre salary and exorbitant student loan payments.

My grandmother has brought this to every meal from the beginning of time, but she calls it Watergate Salad. I don’t like pineapple or pistachio, but she always makes me taste it before it goes on the table. I still don’t like it, but it tastes like love to me. (We’re from downstate Illinois)

Microwave all the way. That’s how I make my lemon curd (The easiest and most delicious lemon curd of your life), so it makes sense that it would work for a custard too. 20 seconds at a time, stirring between each increment, until it gets to your desired consistency. Heaven. I sieve my curd afterward, though, and I

My grandma always says, “If you call it dressing, you like to dress, and if you call it stuffing, you like to stuff.” It took me way too many years to realize why my mom always swatted her when she said it. Haha.

My grandpa always made us open a can of cranberry sauce and put it on a plate. We cut it up, but nobody every ate it. Ever. I think we got some cranberry fluff dessert from the deli last year, but nobody ate it. I don’t know if we’re just cranberry averse or if we just stuff ourselves with so much other food that we
