Homemade yogurt is 100% better than that bitter Chobani shit.

Hush!! Background: I live in the south, I cook most of my food from scratch and quite well, and most of the time I’m cooking for one. I hate dishes and like to multitask.

I’m a stay at home dad (we like to call ourselves SAHD) & this thing has been a godsend. I cook every night for teens (one a pescetarian) and a hard working wife. In between coaching, playing daddy Uber driver, and all the other crap, I don’t have time to sit in front of the stove. I love my crockpot but that means…

It’s a “hot take for the sake of a hot take.” I was baited in, thinking that there would be one actual negative fact about Instant Pots. Instead, I was treated to the standard “we should dislike what other people like too much” bullshit, with a dollop of “don’t make things at home, buy them from large corporations”…

It may not take less time to boil eggs in the IP, but the shells practically fall off the egg.

I agree with everything you’ve stated but I would argue it is an EXCELLENT yogurt maker. My husband and I make a yogurt so good in our instant pot that it rivals the fancy Greek yogurt available at LA farmer’s markets. We’ve become crazy yogurt people.

Convenience? That’s going through a drive-thru on the way home.

so it’s okay to buy a rice cooker, but not something the exact same size that does way more?

Why are you guys always writing about topics you’re uneducated about? 

I’m new to the Instant Pot world.

One of my favorite things to make with an Instant Pot: Scrub some potatoes. Poke them with a fork a few times. Put them in the pot on top of the little rack. No need to cut into smaller pieces. Pour a cup of water into the pot. Sprinkle with your Penzey’s Spice mix of the night. Take a couple of frozen chicken breasts…

NOPE!

This is nonsense. A microwave is also a convenience appliance, but the food that comes out of it is generally...not great. Before we had a microwave my mom used to boil and steam all our vegetables and food on the stove. I don’t know why I need be eating microwaved vegetables on nights when I shave no time when…

Maybe I’m not using my Instant Pot so I can make sure my husband has mushroom risotto and short ribs to eat for dinner every night. Maybe *I* want to eat short ribs every night. Mushroom risotto can go to hell though because I hate mushrooms.

The instant pot is literally the only useful gift my mother in law has ever given me. Once she gave me Spanx, for frame of reference.

seeing a lot of words but no point??

Everything about this is wrong, but I hope you’re ready for when Hamilton comes after you for daring to suggest Chobani.

Esther,

This about sums up the collective intelligence of all liberals nationwide.  They can't make factual arguments, so they resort to childish name calling.

HE’S JEWISH you liberal troll! LOL!!
