AeroPress is the Instant Pot/Always Pan/Arch Linux of the coffee world.

Mario Batali would do everything with extra virgin olive oil, including deep-frying. He claimed it imparted a better flavor to things. I’ve done it with some thinly-sliced onions, but I’m not willing to test it with the amount of oil required for deep-frying a chicken, given that I’d have to throw it out after another…

Meanwhile, 7% of Americans hate dinner rolls. (????????)

I’m skeptical that this is 100% effective.

I’ve tried a couple of the vacuum sealed containers. The Airscape brand canisters have been far and away the best for the fancy coffee I drink on weekends. Solid, opaque container, one-way vacuum valve, and an extra plastic lid on top of the valve. It’s great for the 12oz bags:

So you picked a fight with a random college student’s op-ed, and your counter is basically ‘Nuh-uh”? Come on, man.

My mom also used to leave notes in my lunch bag:

But seriously, though: why is Europe so damn stingy with the ice? They brought me a lukewarm coke in a glass once, I asked for some ice with it, and they literally put two cubes in it. I’m pretty sure I said, “Uh...thanks” but I’m sure my facial expression said “You think that’s funny, do you?”

We would also use a bit of Sprite, in a pinch. It’s not ideal, but it maintains the same sweet/sour ratio of the drink while adding volume.

Flavor would definitely check out, but I assume you want at least some mint in the drink itself for garnish, no? Without the visual cue, I imagine some patrons would suspect you’re just throwing creme de menthe in there otherwise.

I am shocked that the only browser not to support a native mode that focuses the article content and removes obtrusive ads is the one made by the company that derives 90% of its multi-billion-dollar-a-year revenue from selling ads. Shocked, I tell you!

Are you saying Ronnie James Dio steered me wrong?

WAY TO BE A KILLJOY SAM! YOULL PROBABLY ASK ME TO STOP WRITING IN ALL CAPS NEXT

My preferred brand of smoked paprika (Simply Organic) is like $7.50 a bottle. That’s gotta last me at least a month or two. No way am I using the whole damn bottle on some wings.

Charging your controllers using the console itself is so PS3-era! External controller docks are widely available, inexpensive, and don’t have you leaving the PS4 on or digging out an ancient micro-USB cable.

That “tong grab” video probably shortened the life of that baking sheet/broiler tray by a couple years. Taking a piping-hot sheet pan out of the oven and dunking it into cold water will “shock” the hell out of it, and likely lead to warping/cracking.

I don’t presume to correct a farmer’s daughter (?), but isn’t...that...good? Chickens eat bugs, yes. It’s part of their diet. Isn’t that why commercial chicken feed contains grubs?

Where do you hide the expensive liquor, so that your asshole friend doesn’t mix half a bottle of your 15 year single-malt Japanese whisky with Coke?

If you’re lucky enough to have a drying attachment, just turn on the dryer and you’ll never need to wipe again.

Worcestershire sauce and anchovy paste don’t have the stank on it that fish sauce does, which can be a tad unpleasant.
