If ever a headline answered its own question...

I take issue with the “why is there pumpkin spice in this” in terms of things that exist only to make things smell nice. Pumpkin spice is just cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and clove (sometimes also allspice) and those are all nice smells, separately or together.

Yes, we should all feel weird about this. 

I will let Amazon know the next time this happens.

lol yeah that’s kind of their thing at MilkBar. This is a recipe of my own design so it accounts for the crazy sugar content in these cereals. It’s a sweet pie but it’s definitely not seizure-y. You could even reduce a tablespoon from the crust and have the whipped cream unsweetened (but leave it in the pudding).

Can confirm on the sweetness. Tried one of the Milk Bar ice creams and it was unbalanced and overly sweet.

christina tosi: i once made one of her recipes, and it was so oversugared i thought i’d have seizures. took differenr kinds of sugar too: regular sugar, caster sugar, i forget what else. sugar everywhere. gack.

Collagen is wonderful stuff. It is what makes your smoked brisket or pulled pork juicy instead of dry. It makes stocks rich and smooth, giving them great mouthfeel and helping to thicken sauces.

“Klondike might have killed its most iconic treat”

Oh yeah, that’s another one where it’s on the “surprise” list. 

Ricotta cake is sublime. A friend of a friend ran an incredible restaurant in Rome, and she made all of the desserts herself every day. One of her specialties was ricotta cake, and she insisted we try it when we ate there. It was so, so good. I raved about it in my very poor Italian, and at the end of the night she…

I’m beginning to think processed foods might not be that great

They’re obviously hoping they’ll lure in the desperate and the homeless to be free labor. Just another reason CFA can eat dicks and die.

The first time I had port was in a spritzer and it really is the better way to drink port much of the time. Port can be so syrupy sometimes that the drink just comes off like a boozy Italian soda.

Look at reddits stupid food subredit, its not just Latino food they are fucking with, there is TON of stupid food shit on TikTok

Not only that, but people gotta eat, even if they’re depressed (or Just Feeling Bad). The idea isn’t “eat *because* you’re depressed”, it’s “easy things you can eat WHEN you’re depressed”.

thank you for reading and understanding

Recipes are hacks when they get you results by doing something novel and likely easier than the traditional method.

This too shall pass.

I really do feel for the restaurant owners on this one, presuming things are as presented.
