We measured each stove burner using a static flux chamber (“room chamber”) method (Figure S1), which we tested in the lab and in homes before initiating the study. The stove was contained in an airtight portion of the room of known volume (average of 20 m3, range of 8–83 m3, Figure S2) by hanging plastic sheets

Throwing shade at the British Royal Family is a time-cherished American tradition and I’m all here for it. I’m gonna start calling the extra tire in the trunk of my car “the Harry.”

Only outside the US. Inside the US, Keurig Dr Pepper distributes the product. (KDP owns the brand and the formulas but 7-Up had a long time distribution agreement with Pepsico outside the US)

The fry seasoning is pretty good. The steak fries themselves have never been good, at least at the locations I’ve gone to (mostly in the Chicagoland area).

The Slice orange was the best orange pop in the States. Club Orange (Ireland) and Tango (UK) were even better but hard to come by.

Look for “dry” sodas - they’re all over the place. DRY, Olipop, Corsa, Demi Doux plus a dozen more.

I picked up the Ting habit when I started taking my family to mid-winter breaks in the Caribbean. Those days are long over (eventually the kids got too big to take from school in February and now they’re all adults) but my taste for Ting lives on.

Slice was the best of the 7-Up alternatives. It actually tasted like a real citrus fruit had at least been in the building when it was being bottled. I’ve never liked Sprite - it is, to me, the most “created in a lab” tasting of the lemon-lime crowd. 7-Up is the original and the “cleanest” tasting - I’m not sure

Armenians out there working hard.

Mike’s a real nice guy (we have mutual friends and have met a few times). I’m probably the only person in the world who doesn’t love hot honey on pizza - it generally gets drizzled over pepperoni and I’m not a meat + sweet kind of guy.

I refuse to mention this fact to Mike himself - who wants to be “that guy”?

Underground Meats has the Spanish version, sobrasada, which I might like even more. It’s tangier and hotter. It’s very, very good.

I’m also a huge Tempesta fan, stood in that same line to grab some free ‘nduja from the giant chub (sadly, it seems to be a casualty of COVID) and submit that they have the best deli

It’s weird that the same paragraph that claims “we’ve... only had one option” also names a competitor (Lay’s Stax) that has been around for 20 years and doesn’t have the degerminated corn flour and a bunch of other binders. Good Crisp and Stax are both essentially potatoes, a starch (rice for Stax, tapioca for

Nope - it’s Waze “saving your location” when you park. That sucker drains battery like no one’s business - they’ve had a longstanding bug/feature that is constantly hitting Location Services so that they can lead you back to your car (even though they have no walking instructions, so 🤷‍♀️).

Due to the preparation time required, quesadillas were designed to be digitally exclusive...

How am I gonna get that silky smooth finish on my restorations without access to polish ham?

Not only does it require extra time to clean up, it also means that you’re losing bits of sellable weight. If you have the time and a sharp knife at home, you may be better served by cutting this cheese yourself. At least on your own counter, you’re allowed to eat the crumbs.

The ironic thing is that Jet’s mobile app may be the worst design mobile app ever designed. It’s terrible - a badly wrapped web page that isn’t designed for mobile at all and originally couldn’t remember who you were, so you had to hand enter your credit card information into a series of tiny boxes not designed for

Pretty common in Greek cooking and Greek-influenced Italian cooking (still have Greek speakers down in the boot of Italy from back when it was a colony of Greece!)

We’ve pretty much switched to Carbone for the “emergency sauce” we keep in the pantry. I’m sort of in the same boat - I’d generally prefer to make a quick Hazan style marinara almost always, but my wife doesn’t cook at all, so if I’m running late from work or otherwise unavailable, she will use the Carbone for her and

Walter Hamada was hardly a placeholder. After a successful 10 year run as a producer at New Line (another Warners division), he has brought into DC Films in January 2018 after the original Justice League flopped.
