Well, anyone who would unleash something like those FOUR TEEN THOU SAND Caramel Bars unto the general population clearly has a very dark, malicious side! Are you and your husband some sort of secret holdover 1950s endocrinologist/diabetes specialist doctors who happily hand out ‘samples’, just like those…

But if you’re gonna go, go out big like yeast does! Maybe it’s all the gas from the screaming that provides such a good rise?

Does yeast scream teeny tiny screams when it gets thrown into an oven? You go through all the effort to throw it a bitchin’ pool party with warm water and sugar, maybe even some flour, and then you mercilessly throw it into a controlled firestorm!

Having trouble linking, but have you been to the Lileks Gallery of Regrettable Food? Awesome site! 

Crap, now I need to make popcorn nachos tonight...

Meh, I would try this and probably like it, but it’s one of those things that I am probably not going to whip up a batch of any time soon...and I eat a fair amount of popcorn. Totally reminds me of a recipe for popcorn nachos, which I could see myself actually making some day. I just had a bag of Orville Dedenpopper 2…

But...but they’ve got those shipping containers with all those chips for that PS5 I’ve been wanting to get!

Nailed it with the whole ranch flavor blowing out all the other taste of the sauce, but hey, for some this is an ok combination. I may not like this particular flavor profile, but whatever. I’d rather see people come up with ‘unusual’ flavor combos in their kitchen than see them eat a bag of clown food that some…

Damn,  I cannot find it in all of my endless food website emails that says to nuke the mushrooms a bit (not fully cooking them) before you saute them and it addresses most of this issue. I did it once and it seemed to work. I nuked them for just a bit, like a minute or so, before throwing them in the pan and they came…

EDIT: This ended up being Much Longer than I anticipated, so apologies for my blabber fingers!

Thanks, never heard of this site!

Umm, a bit late, but Washington Post link is behind a paywall and I suspect that I’m not the only one left wondering what the issues mentioned there are? Any help?

Oops, ‘kids and animals’.

“Great...”  HA! Oliver obviously forgot about the old axiom about working with kinds and animals. 

Ok Allison, now this was a pretty damn fun read (and even somewhat educational?)! Props, but I kinda wish we could have seen the original draft before your editor nixed some stuff for the weak stomached and fart joke adverse crowd.

Bonus star for the FO reference! And being about a decade older and from growing up during all the nuclear scare fun, I take a similar tack in that if there was a nuclear war I’m setting up a cooler and some lawn chairs on the roof and getting ripped before the suntan and the molecular ripping apart stuff happens.

Meh, their dealerships probably would have been like their computer stores. Like 2 or 3 per state and absolutely hammered. And if you have any work done, even like changing a tire or the oil outside of an Apple dealership, your warranty would be instantly voided. Zero aftermarket parts would be compatible, despite the…

Best shirt that I never owned but wanted, desperately, was one I saw in the late 80s or 90s.

No problem! You can probably find a decent one for cheap at most kitchen supply areas in most big box store supermarkets. I used an old style thermo for years until I checked it by dipping it in boiling water and it was off by like 9 degrees or so, which is pretty bad. I bought multiples at Amazon, mostly because they…
