Yes to tortillas being the true taste test.  I can forgive much with the tacos, but a proper tortilla?  That’s the clincher for me!!  Me and my friends have had many discussions on proper ways of critiquing breakfast tacos and have come up with the three principle components being the tortillas, fillings, and…

I’m sorry, but I’m not taking that long to boil my pasta!  I do greatly enjoy eating fusilli though - one of my go-to pastas.  Really good with bolognese, I’ve found.

A comment that may be slightly off-topic, but eh here goes! This article about a sandwich-maker that I’ve never heard of (but apparently many do know him!) and is now no longer able to post his videos. What’s the point of this article other than to make us all sad and increasing the negative feedback loop that seems…

Salisbury steak and mashed potatoes - can’t go wrong with that!  Reminds me I need to make this sometime soon.  Thanks!

I was pretty psyched to fill up at $3.99 the other day, that’s for sure.  (Houston)

I haven’t bought a frozen pizza in a while, but Digiorno’s Rising Crust was always my go-to back in the day (i.e. when I was a single man fresh out of college and realized I could have as much frozen pizza in the fridge as I wanted). Supreme was my fav. So so good. Only problem is I rarely had self control to hold…

I may be an anomaly, but I most certainly believe it does pay to cook for one. I have been cooking for one for quite some time, and yes, I confess I’m not a novice cook (or a master cook!), but I have discovered that it’s fully possible to cook (relatively) healthy meals for one without wasting food. Yes, eating…

I thought the same thing at first.  Halfway down, I actually scrolled back up to see if this was a sponsored post.  But...no.  Apparently not.  It just reads that way.

Ordering a bottle is almost always the right move.  If I’m with friends, we’ll order multiple bottles, most likely.  If I’m with a date, we’ll order a bottle, because then we don’t have to stress about ordering more glasses the rest of the night.  Only time I won’t order a bottle is if I’m alone (usually at an airport…

I have never heard of smelling the cork. Who does that, and why??

At first that’s what I thought this article was decrying - “don’t try and get all the air out of the bag”. I was very confused - what’s wrong with that? Then I realized they were talking about using your mouth. Yeah. Ew no.

One of my favourite Thai youtube chefs posted recently on instagram her beef with American restaurants appending “Asian” or worse yet “Oriental” to a recipe to signify that it has has something a bit “exotic” in it. In her words, “walk into any chain restaurant and anything “Thai” on the menu is just code for peanuts…

I am saddened by the lack of mention of my favourite way of eating fries - dipped in ranch. Only ketchup? *single tear*

Hah I’ve had this dilemma before and I always come back to the answer in my head of “Don’t be a creep”. She’s just being friendly 99.9% of the time. That 0.1% chance is what haunts me though! Still though, I feel too weird knowing that they are literally on the clock and being paid to be nice to customers to think…

Interestingly enough, just encountered this recently watching a buldak recipe on youtube.  The guy added Sprite, which I thought was surprising...but now I know it’s apparently not uncommon!

I would argue that some quality beers are worth it.  I’ve never paid $28, but Prairie Artisan’s “Vanilla Noir” costs $14 for a single at my grocery store/liquor store (when it was available - can’t find it anymore!), and I am shamed to admit how often I couldn’t resist buying one.  Far too expensive, yes, but for my…

So as someone who just came back from getting lunch at In-n-Out (first time eating their food in over 15 years!!), I was surprised (due in part to this article!) to find I actually enjoyed the fries. Had a nice potato flavor and I couldn’t stop eating them. Fair enough, my textural preference tends to be on soggy side…

Seriously.  Was buying chicken breasts yesterday for my fancy chicken parm dinner that I’d been planning.  Shocked it was so expensive.  Still bought it but...going to be eating chicken a lot less in the future, I guess.

Timely article as I am currently in a coffeeshop working...hmm...

This was fascinating reading. As a Texas resident, I’ve been to a few boils but never run one myself. Interesting to see all the work and effort that goes into them!! I’ve been to some good ones and ones that were...not so good (too many dead crawfish, not properly purged, etc.)

It is fun during springtime when all the…
