I’m a Summit guy. I moved here in 2002, and took to it right away. I won cases of their beer in 2006 for their 20th anniversary by writing a silly essay about their beer. I commiserate with their employees about how the local scene writes them off as “dad beer.” That Keller Pils is the most satisfying beer I’ve had in…

American Squirt is tooooo sweet, but Mexican Squirt (glass bottle) is much better. San Pellegrino Pompelmo is my fave grapefruit soda, but I haven’t seen Izze...will look for it! 

I could go for a couple chicken biscuits like everyday.

One of my favorite local restaurants did a drink through autumn into winter that featured browned-butter-washed gin, mixed with a squash-sage shrub. (I live in the Twin Cities - people take their craft cocktails here VERY SERIOUSLY.) I am now a fat-washed booze convert.

Lol you will notice is not filed to 3-ingredient happy hour! (I’m sorry.)

Let’s imagine a scenario where you were you were an idiot and ordered a pound of dried bay leaves from Amazon without realizing that a pound of dried bay leaves is approximately all the world’s bay leaves.

In that extremely unlikely scenario, how many dried bay leaves would you use in place of the fresh ones?

I want to try that McSpicy Paneer sandwich SO BAD.

I still think they should do limited time runs of stuff from their international menus. I want to try a Veg Maharaja Mac, dammit!

Nothing says “small government” and “freedom” quite like conservative states implementing needless regulations to limit what businesses can and can’t do.  I guess socialism is only bad when it’s for people and not corporations.

Nope. They are also outlawing Potato Ricers, Rice University, and Condaleezza Rice.

Arkansas shouldn't be allowed to call itself a Kansas, it's just confusing consumers
