I love a creamy, gooey mac and cheese. Will the center still be creamy and gooey if I waffle it, thus giving me the best of all cheese enthusiast worlds?

Aldi enthusiast here. You’re absolutely right, it’s great for stocking up on staples like onions, lemons, butter, eggs, and cheese. That being said, the “seasonal” items drive me mad. How is canned pumpkin seasonal, but canned pumpkin pie filling is not? And why is there an Italian food season? Shouldn’t that be year…

Keeping your website up-to-date is good advice for restaurants at all times, regardless of the ongoing Corona situation. I know of a local restaurant that had a broken link to their brunch menu for THREE YEARS before they fixed it. I personally notified them via email several times, but it was never updated. I’d hate…

I’m not surprised at all that American Cheese flavor is your favorite. I’ve never had instant grits (thanks to having a NC born-and-raised wife who loves to cook and refuses to allow instant grits in our house), but we’ve used American in slow-cooked grits before. It’s not the most elegant cheese, but the gooey…

Rather than finding ways to use all those eggs you don’t need, you could give some to a neighbor who needs them but is either unable to get out or shouldn't leave the home during these Corona times.

Bidet is the way.

Doc Porter’s Distillery in Charlotte, NC is making sanitizer. As of yesterday, they already received 100 requests from organizations on the front lines of the fight.

I think we’ll be doing a lot of takeout date-nights-in in the near future. The sad reality is that some of our favorite restaurants aren’t going to survive this and will close their doors. I’d rather both support and enjoy them now when they really need the help.

Not a sauce, but I would absolutely buy a jar of the hot peppers from Jimmy John’s.

Pro tip: buying and installing a cheap bidet from Amazon reduces toilet paper usage astronomically.

I wish I didn’t have a vacation to the Caymans planned to start next Monday. To go or not to go is proving to be a very difficult decision.

I’ve been using dental floss to cut cheese in a pinch ever since I was a poor college student with a block of cheddar but insufficient funds and and/or motivation to procure a knife.

Exactly. I can’t even tell you how many “authentic” versions of Chicken Milanese I’ve come across over the years. 

My “spare cash” was in the form of a bonus from my employer that was a few thousand dollars higher than expected. So in my case, yes, it was truly spare cash and not something that I would potentially need as liquid assets in any sort of emergency. I would never recommend putting emergency funds in the market. Save…

Buy the dip, folks (as long as you don’t use Robinhood apparently). I’m a long-term investor, but I had some spare cash and couldn’t resist making some purchases this morning. I don’t care if I didn’t buy at the very bottom, I’ll still make money because eventually the market will break past this level again.

I’m traveling to the Caymans next week (as long as my trip doesn’t get Corona-ed away), and this has intensified my cravings for the local cuisine.

I’m buying so hard into my investment portfolio today. Buy the dip, sell the tip.

Yep, the 5 year old brain thinks mysterious things sometimes.

When I was a young boy my mother wouldn’t let me eat Now and Laters because I called them pills. My five year old self didn’t get it then, but I totally get it now. This is an atrocious idea.

I’m getting flashbacks to Barry Pachetsky’s annual post to Deadspin that came out on or around Christmas every year.
