OTOH I’ve read where a lot of grade school kids say “Youtuber” when asked what they want to be.  Sad that “annoying waste of oxygen babbling about nonsense” is something to aspire to. 

I’m not really into the whole “Cancel” thing, but goddamn do I want to cancel anyone who calls every mundane little action a “hack.”

erm, I’d think if you’re baking them long enough for that to be a problem they’d end up as small piles of black dust. 

scones and American biscuits are basically “cousins” for lack of a better term. Biscuits tend to be softer and fluffier. I’m not really into purity tests so if you wanted to eat biscuits with marmalade or Devon cream, have at it.

yikes.

now that I think about it, smoke point wouldn’t matter (as it would for this dish which I highly recommend making) and with coconut milk and shredded in there the mild increase in coconut flavor wouldn’t come through. 

send some love our way.

(By the way, when did James Woods become such a fucking whack job?)

would it matter if you used virgin/expeller pressed coconut oil over refined?  

that’s like 5% of all of the flavors they’ve offered in Japan at various points. The ones we can get over here (e.g. from Japanese markets) tend to be ones most likely to be palatable like green tea, strawberry, dark chocolate, etc. I’m not sure you’d be so positive for cough drop, red potato, soy flour, etc. Yes,…

to be fair, a lot of the flavors they’ve had in Japan aren’t all that great either. 

The woman on the marketing team who had organized the party had always just wanted to play with a cotton candy machine.

sure genetics matter greatly, but even if you drew lucky on those your lifestyle can still throw a wrench in the works. it’s not that smoking one cigarette dooms you to lung cancer, but that smoking increases the chance the cells in your lungs will suffer just the right kind of DNA damage at just the right time to…

true but that wasn’t the point of what I quoted. all it said is that the only way to be sure you’re eating something “healthy” is if you prepare it yourself.  not implying that preparing it yourself automatically makes it healthy.

I’m an old, but as best as I can guess “cultural appropriation” is akin to “Columbusing” where you find something other people are doing and act like it’s your own discovery. On the other hand, finding something another cultural group does and enjoying it doesn’t qualify so long as you don’t try to take ownership of…

I don’t know if I’m weird or not, but I have two “modes” concerning eating around other people.  if it’s a group meal and we’re all eating, no problem.  If I’m off eating by myself, and you decide to come by and strike up a conversation I feel extraordinarily uncomfortable and desperately wish you would leave. 

I must be stuck at the mental age of 14, because the first thing I noticed was the unfortunate placement of the banana and syrup carafe. 

pecorino is hard to find?  Every Kroger I’ve been to has a reasonably large cheese selection.
