But, and I say this as someone who’s had the “all edges” brownie pan on their Amazon wishlist for literally 20 years, is “my [whatever] doesn’t have enough edges” really a *problem*?

Not strictly Wish related, but tangentially related and relevant to food. I saw this in a promoted tweet a few months back.

I guess the question is whether “replacing the CO2 canister” is more of a pain than freezing the bowl for the traditional kind.

I don’t have a metal box, I just keep all my recipes I want to save in a note pad application backed up on the google cloud. I’ve had to re-write my grandmother’s rice pudding recipe too often after the index card got spilled on to trust dead trees for this.

The best chex mix I ever made was just the cereal tossed with the butter+worcestershire+spices mixture (slightly more of it since the holes in the cereal will trap more of it) then roasted.  With the exception of nuts (which aren’t in the commercial mix because a) cost and b) allergies, none of that other stuff adds…

There’s a lot of gelatin in this. Normally I just make flan with sugar, two kinds of canned milk, and a bunch of eggs (plus flavor ingredients). I imagine the other additions are for the “pudding pop” part not the “flan” part?

Honestly “people leave me alone, and the food is good” is my dream birthday.

So I have no idea what the pizza at Chuck E. Cheese is like now, since they don’t let adults without children in (for obvious reasons.)  But if I wanted to if Applebee’s is currently less disappointing than it has always been, I could have (pre-pandemic) just gone there.

I have a 10 pound bag of dry pinto beans that I haven’t opened because of the unwieldiness of the 10 pound bag of beans when most recipes are calibrated for the handy 1 lb bags you see at the stores.

I feel like, at least during a global pandemic, there is a moral imperative not to present “solutions” that actually do nothing useful, and indeed fundamentally cultivate a false sense of security.

Listen all of y’all- this is arbitrage.

This approach is going to work fine for like 95% of the dialogue in the game, but you’re really going to miss things like “Kris Kristoffferson’s performance as Hanlon” and “Wayne Newton as Mr. New Vegas.”  I wonder if either is on cameo.

The tortilla is made from scratch, so it’s both crispy and tender so you can break off a portion.  Sort of like the “triplelupa” from Taco Bell, but actually good.

The taqueria nearest to me sells something called “the Machete”. As you can tell from the picture, it does not travel well. I’d get the al pastor.

I’m wondering, legitimately, are what point it’s more sensible to just cut bait and stop paying people to work on the game, just have them do something else. Like I can’t imagine that there’s anything they can do to Anthem that would make me more excited to play it than “a new Dragon Age game” or “a new Mass Effect”…

1, 2, Tactics, the tabletop game, New Vegas. Probably that terrible BOS game too.

“Bombs Drop Event”

I’m not sure there’s any restaurant that has a drive-thru that I’d be willing to wait like >15 minutes for what they serve.  But in the beforetime I didn’t like the drive thru much, to be honest.

I’ve thought about marketing “instant gumbo” that is basically just deeply toasted flour, that you mix with liquid into a slurry that you then add to your stew to thicken it.

All fruits are fine.
