Mixer started life as Beam

Altoids.

For a photo of the sandwiches “in the wild”, not a promotional image, that bread does look awfully good. I hope it sticks around. (And the fresh mozz.)

1. Bob’s Red Mill sells defatted soy grits, so it must be good for you. (at least if you’re of the crunchy hippie tribe)

It actually surprises me a bit that their science patties stand up to BK’s flame broil process.  I would not have been surprised if they reacted well to griddle cooking but not fire, especially since it produces such different flavors in beef between the two methods.  Rollout is next Thu?  I’m in.

Impossible and Beyond burgers are marvels of science. So are Twinkies and Pringles. I certainly do not see them as health food any more than I would a natural beef cheeseburger, but still, I like them, in moderation.  If I want a “healthy” burger, I’ll have a black bean burger.  I love black bean burgers - can we…

I just did the math, and I have been eating ramen for breakfast for about 27-28 years. It was my go-to breakfast food in high school before morning swim practice in the early ‘90s. Only in the last 5-10 have I been adding an egg to it, though. Wish I had known about that back in the day. And I don’t bother taking the…

Beyond Burger costs $8 for a pack of two at my supermarket

You made your point about the proportions of this sandwich quite well with your words, but including Pang’s IG photo really put it over the top.  Loved that.

I’m an unrepentant omnivore.  I am quite comfortable consuming meat, yet I would love to have more options that reduce my meat consumption.  I am the target market for a cheese sandwich fried in the same oil as a chicken patty.  Please bring this sandwich to the Twin Cites of Minnesota, so that you can market it to…

Ronald McDonald represents the Ronald McDonald House charity. Jolly Green Giant represents vegetables. Vegetables!  A recognizable food mascot that does not sell diabetes to children!  Easy vote for Dominick.

Claire - Aren’t you a Costco person? If so, I would humbly recommend googling “kirkland stretch tite food wrap”, and never ever go back to standard grocery store cling wrap. Stretch-Tite >> Saran Wrap. I spent formative years in a reso kitchen, and after I moved on, I remember using the stuff available to plebeian…

debut a new 50/50 Menu ... whenever ordered from the new menu

First selection method: Vote for whoever didn’t pick a Girl Scout cookie.
OK, that didn’t work.

Someday, maybe my children will be able to do a taste test between this and a McPaneer.  I don’t have the highest hopes that I’ll be able to.

My favorite bad choice for alcoholic beverage packaging is hard cider in 2 liter bottles (a la soda in the US).  I’ve never actually seen one, but I’d love to have one of my own one day.

My son actually asked my this same question just about two days ago, and I had to think about it for a few moments, but actually, for reals, settled on broccoli. Mostly because I recognized that by a fair margin, it’s the bag of frozen veg I most often pull out to make for a quick side an the average evening at…

Mike’s. It’s on Robert Street, South of St. Paul, in West St. Paul. While they’re better known for what they do with their smoker (OMG the turkey jerky.  My kids call it “turkey treats”), they have been having fun with flavored brats lately, and mostly with rather good results.

Based mainly on that really nice animated gif that led the article, I was especially interested in seeing how a piece of actual fried chicken would grind up, skin and meat (not bone, obvs) into a sausage, that would then be grilled and served.  And now, I need to go talk to my local butcher, who makes many interesting…

Despite never encountering a sprinkle that I could say anything nicer about than “that didn’t get in the way of my enjoyment very much”, I had to go with Shoe.
