True, but I’ve had bad museum food before, and an awful hot dog would be light years better than this “turkey” sandwich I had. I only mentioned British food, because I don’t know that food that bad would even be considered an option in any country other than England - even from a museum cafe.

Oh, I’m not hating on the new school. I looooove me a good pastry stout, especially a BA pastry stout, and I’m not getting that from Bell’s or Founder’s. I’m hating on people who act like the newest “hype” and trend-following breweries are the only good breweries. I am frankly getting a little tired of the hazy IPAs,…

Oh, the haze bros ARE mad. They’re all like, “Who made this list, a bunch of grandpas who homebrewed in the ‘90's?  Where’s Monkish/Treehouse/Other Half/Great Notion/etc.?”

Yes, it does. But you’re being willfully ignorant if you think that AOC’s point wasn’t to deliberately evoke the Nazis. This is straight up Trump-style politics. She says “they’re concentration camps,” and then goes on to explain how not all concentration camps are death camps, and that they aren’t really nearly as…

I may have a problem with sweets.

It depends on how you define “sad.” I once at a half dozen Krispy Kremes for lunch, sober. It was the first time I had ever tried a Krispy Kreme, and it seemed reasonable at the time. I regret nothing, although it may be objectively sad to an outside observer.

I looooove cereals with marshmallows, and in fact, Lucky Charms with the unsweetened cereal pieces could actually stand to be a little sweeter for my taste.

I mean... not “literally.”

Some people called the Japanese internment camps “concentration camps” until that word became associated with the Nazi death camps. Now, we don’t call them that any more.

I’ve tried Willie Mae’s. It’s awesome. I’ve tried Big Jones. Also awesome. But the best fried chicken I’ve ever had comes from Rip’s Tavern in Ladd, IL. Kevin, if you live in the Chicago burbs, it’s probably about a 1.5 hour drive for you. I promise it’s worth it.

I’ve tried Gus’s. It’s damn good, probably the best chain chicken I’ve had. Willie Mae’s is better IMO, but not spicy.

Kate is spot on with most stuff, but not so much with this one.

Apple Jacks aren’t good, but they certainly aren’t the worst. I would say GrapeNuts or original Shredded Wheat, but I’m not even sure they qualify as cereal. Froot Loops and Trix are both terrible and taste like the result of an alien chemist who had never actually tasted fruit before trying to design a “fruit” flavor…

I too am old enough to remember Super Sugar Crisp and Sugar Smacks. I don’t know which one came first, but I do remember they both changed about the same time. There was a whole big thing in the media about how much sugar was in breakfast cereal, and it was pointed out that many breakfast cereals are >50% sugar by…

I mean, maybe she got sorted into the loser’s debate so she couldn’t make Biden look bad? I’m not a fan of Warren simply because she’s too far left for me, but I recognize that she would obliterate Biden in a debate and make it clear how much distance there is between him and the progressive base.

Coincidentally, I want to McDonald’s and got a Grand McExtreme Bacon Burger and a Stroopwafel McFlurry last week. Verdict: The burger was pretty good, although not as good as Pang says. The sauce was definitely the best part. The McFlurry though: A+. I’ll eat that thing any day.

Not true. Ricotta is essential to a good cannoli, as well as other Italian pastries like sfogliatelle.

Swiss sucks as a stand-alone cheese, which unfairly gives it a bad rap. A good Emmental on a ham sandwich is delicious though.

One style that nearly nobody knows about is Old Forge style pizza (from the Scranton area). It is a unique style, or actually, two unique styles. The red pizza has a somewhat thick but light crust with a very onion-heavy tomato sauce and a cheese blend that I’m pretty sure has brick or a similar cheese that melts into…

The ma po tofu at Lao Sze Chuan is one of the most intensely flavored things I’ve ever eaten in my life. It was almost too much. Off the charts umami and spicy AF. As good as it is though, Tony’s Chicken is the most addictive food I’ve ever eaten. Not necessarily the best (although it is awesome), but I wake up in the…
