Utz > Planter’s > Target brand > Herr’s > others. And the Utz are greater by a pretty big margin for me. Out in CA, I can only get the cheese balls at Walmart and Total Wine. The only other Utz snacks we get are the Pub Mix at Costco. I have to order the chips directly from Utz smh.

My mom gave my wife one of Pépin’s cookbooks. I think all we’ve made from it so far is poulet a la crème, but damn is it good and so simple to make.

She lost the case. She defamed Depp. He is the victim in the case. She is reaping what she’s sown. If you hate everyone you meet, everyone you work with, it’s probably not them that’s the asshole... Just sayin’.

Does the NFL, mainstream media, etc understand that Taylor Swift is a serial dater and this is going to last about as long as it takes to distract a toddler from a hissy fit by handing them a cookie?

Indeed.  I’ll make pinto beans -- with a lot of seasoning and ground beef.  And I’ll make chili, with a lot of seasoning and beef.  But the two are not the same.

It’s great!!! And the photos are so beautiful and melancholic.

You could have just said the second half.

I like the topping vs a-la-cart distinction. It’s basically what I think, though hot dogs and chili, with or without beans, is a good combo. My dad and I used to heat up canned chili (usually with beans) on the stove and cut up hot dogs into it for lunch. Maybe stir in some cheese for a little variety or or dice a…

Unless it is going to top a hotdog, I prefer chili with beans. I don’t really care who considers this to be “correct”. Food has always evolved, and always will. Beans also have the bonus of adding fiber to what generally ends up being a not-so-healthy meal. 

Your second ‘graph is a perfect introduction to Texas chili. Makes me want to make the Jail House Chili from the unfortunately-named White Trash Cookbook.

Beans in chili. Ketchup on hot dogs. The rules are there for fun; of course it’s your food, make it however you want and call it whatever you want to. There are people who make chili without meat, and still call it chili!

I am a native Texan and I like beans in my chili. Pinto beans though not kidney beans. I think it tastes better that way. You can’t taste tradition. Eat it for the flavor how ever you like. Also I never hope the Cowboys win

Eh, they DO warp. Who cares tho?

They also probably source local Brazilian beef instead of the shoe leather they serve here.

I’m guessing it’s being sold to lower middle class and working class people. Also if the beef is local it might be great. Btw American beef might not be the best in the world but it is seen more positively outside of the US.

I thought Brazilians knew their meats well enough to realize how meh Outback is.

Yeah, stromboli is better. 

Maybe, but I’ve been doing it for a couple of decades now, and haven’t had any problems.

I’m not keen on pounding an unwrapped chicken breast.

This brings back memories.  I cooked in a smattering of restaurants from age 16-22 and met quite the assortment of folks/ coworkers.  Wholesome school teachers, retireees, cracked out juggalos, crazy old guy that lived in a van and made homes for racoons behind the dumpsters... I could go on!  But the skills I learned…
