Next time you need anchovy fillets and aren’t willing to buy the tin, consider a tube of “anchovy paste” which is cheaper, and will keep in your fridge for a while (just put the cap back on).  The conversion rate is 1/2 tsp of paste per fillet.

If they bring it back as an occasional menu item (a la the McRib) I would definitely try one, and might have another. I think the appeal is limited as a standard offering. But Culver’s menu already has considerable bloat which apparently doesn’t really hurt the quality.

I have no opinion on the lobster roll, since it would most likely kill me were I to eat it, but it’s probably fine for other people. But checking the List of U.S. State Foods I noticed that Maine is the only state with an official sweetener and the only state with an official state treat. I would think sandwich would…

How many of them have a “pay in person” option at checkout?  I don’t want to put my credit card information on my phone.

I don’t even like to get e-mails from actual humans, so getting them from fictional characters and video games is completely unacceptable.

Well, I was talking about the field of formal fractions over Z, which is like 2nd year graduate algebra stuff (quotient groups are where you lose most people in abstract algebra, which is like 3rd year undergrad stuff.)

“I can only tolerate a single brand of peanut butter” feels like a “you” problem.  Peanut butter gets used for lots of things other than sandwiches, and if you’re making like “a savory peanut sauce” you’re going to *want* that natural kind.

I’ve never been inside of a Red Lobster, since I’m pretty allergic to shellfish, so I gotta ask- are these good?

I do feel like having the one bucket filled with like normal candy (Snickers, Reeses, etc.) and one bucket filled with weird fancy hippy candy is going to create a striation that might make people feel weird. I’m just going to stick with gummy stuff for the allergen kids.

I’m really hoping that the sequel shows us a sandtrout.

As an American who is uncommonly good at math (I have graduate degrees that say as much) I’m compelled to ponder how 1/3 and 3/9 are not identical as formal fractions and are simply representatives of the same coset modulo the a/b ~ c/d IFF ad-bc=0; b, d ≠ 0 relation.

I still like the original ending and think it’s a lot better than the Extended Cut.

I’m really unclear on why a collaborative storytelling project needs a financial barrier to enter (with absolutely no other qualifications considered) to begin with.

As someone who is so allergic to shellfish even setting foot in a Red Lobster is a bad idea this is still fascinating as purely a thought experiment.

The reason you police the things for blemishes is you want to rule out people “juicing” their pumpkins by injecting something that adds weight, right?

Honestly, I don’t know.  Tomorrow’s my birthday so I’m willing to take suggestions.

“what we don’t understand are the death threats”

I honestly thought this movie came and went.  I think it’s probably because I read a bunch of middling reviews a few weeks back and filed it off to “I’ll catch it on TV eventually”.

I mean, I absolutely would have watched it if they put it on FX (or one of their other channels) instead of being yet another thing I’d have to sign up to a streaming service for.

Like if you want your ribeyes to be 2" thick, go to a real butcher and they can cut them that thickness for you. The tomahawk is just that way because the depth of the steak is dictated by the width of the bone.
