As someone who is very mayo-adverse, I’m thankful for that.  They use mayonnaise very liberally for other things, though, like fries.

I like the American take German potato salad well enough, but the actual version that’s ubiquitous in restaurants in Germany is very different.  Look up “Schwäbischer Kartoffelsalat”.  I absolutely adore it.

I hear vodka is also low fat.  

If it was just “made with cane sugar”, I could see that as a generous possible interpretation. But they went with “whole cane sugar”. That extra meaningless word shows you their intentions. Of course, legally they can’t actually make a health benefit claim, but they imply one with weasel words like “whole”.

Fun travel tip... as you drive along A9 in Bavaria (particularly in the region between Ingolstadt and Munich), you can not only see the hops being grown, on certain days you can even smell it.  And yes, it smells as pleasant as you are probably imagining it right now.

For Pete’s sake, if you like wine but want to insist you’re doing something for your health, just drink a mild amount for the known cardiac benefit. Beyond that, anything with alcohol in it can never be a “health food”, no matter what the marketing says about how it was produced. The worst thing for your body in wine,…

Did the locals have a name more specific than “coffee” in their own language, though?

“So... I... grabbed... Carrie’s... sweet...can.  Sweet, sw-sw-sweet can.”

“Thank God that Justice League debacle is finally behind us. Now, we can just concentrate on making straight-forward individual superhero movies. I can’t wait until people see what we have in store for them with the Flash.”

I say we borrow a pronoun from another language. The Dutch “zij”, which can mean either “she” or “they”, is my nominee, although we’d probably need to change the spelling to “zay” or “zey” to match the pronunciation in English orthography.

Hawaii still has some minor uninhabited islands, I think.

“Iron Eyes” sounds like a name for someone in a Sergio Leone western.

I really want to see how upper income people in southern California live. That would be new territory that cinema and TV have barely covered.

Au contraire, long-dead UHF channel WKBS broadcast Sheriff Lobo and BJ and the Bear reruns on alternate days, shortly before the station folded.

which I humbly call “The most unnecessary TV show in history.”

“And Just Like That... fans know better by now than to expect a Kim Cattrall cameo on the show any time soon.”

This was like Dinosaur Train for slightly older kids.  Combine two things that 7 year-old boys are fascinated by, dinosaurs and laser guns, and voila!  Can’t miss!

Humanity has shown a unique ability to obliterate macrofauna.  Those that survive today do so pretty much at our mercy, unfortunately.

Well, we use dogs in war.  Not really as weapons, though.

Hey, I barely remember that too. I seem to recall Terry Thomas sitting on a folding chair and pounding it into the ground out of frustration. And some street urchins throwing tomotoes at Eddy.
