Just a reminder that if you live in an area that gets the AKA cookies (ABC), leave it and try to find a far superior Little Brownie selling region. In the Bay Area we get Little Brownie, but in Sacramento they get ABC I believe, but then in Reno they get Little Brownie. It really doesn’t seem to make sense how the…

Ughh all you want, but Ewoks and memories of the Ewoks carried the Star Wars franchise through most of the ‘80s and ‘90s until new content was being created again. If you don’t pander to the younger generations you won’t have any future fans to keep your franchise going. Also, it’s not his fault he’s a scene…

They messed up the title. The biggest star gets top billing. Grogu is so important to the success of this show that they tried to write him off and then had to bring him back via another show. Read the room and play to your strengths y’all: The people want their Baby Yoda!

Exactly! Although it comes out of a soda tap you’re not supposed to gulp it back like a soda - they tell you on the plaque it’s an aperitif. They’re sold in tiny little 100ml bottles because they’re supposed to be sipped/slurped like an alcoholic aperitif would be. Since she mentioned Cynar I poured myself a bit and…

After a childhood of watching my mother cart a chest of silver-PLATED flatware around from house to house that we never once used nor would have ever had a “fancy” enough occasion to “justify” using, in adulthood I saved up my pennies and purchased a set of sterling silver flatware to use everyday and I love it.…

Yeah with silver currently at $.75/g you’d get ~<$20 for a fork at scrap pricing, so not quite pennies, but please don’t scrap your pieces, I’ll give you my address and pay for shipping & handling if you really want to get rid of anything :-) I am so jealous of your dragon hoard!

There’s nothing about her first sentence that implies she was saying Hawaiian Pizza was created in the United States unless you also think she was implying that we invented pickles here too (which is nonsensical). She starts by talking about the United States because she’s based in the United States, writing on an…

Although I would usually be one to jump at Angela’s factual errors, I don’t believe she referred to it as a US creation in this article (because if she had I would have run to the comment section to point it out too🤣).

Wienerschnitzel is relatively standard Californian fast food fare

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: If you can’t say no/set boundaries about small things for a your kids when they’re little (or also ten years old!* in this case), how are you going to be able to say no/set boundaries for them when they’re teenagers and the stakes are much higher (life ending/permanently…

Yeah they could lean into “love leaving a bad taste in your mouth” with BeanBoozled type terrible flavors - they already have the toothpaste one down pat!

I really wish they’d sell these in the US. Like King Cakes I can find full size ones, but that’s a lot to commit to when you just want a nosh with your coffee. At first I balked that they put a figure in what looks to be an individual serving (like I’m pretty sure I know who’s going to find the figure and be “King”)…

It’s a candy you can sharpen into a weapon with your tongue. Might be a good idea to stock up on at least a few boxes to prepare for coming end times /s

My “hack” is just to buy many of the small ones rather than a full size one. They stay fresh, are much easier to eat, and provide “portion control”. I also like giving them as small gifts as many people find a full size panettone overwhelming.

Oh no, looks like we found a Pandoro lover...

Chocolate pasta is indeed a thing. At first I thought it was probably an American invention, but it looks like it is something traditional from Italy - so of course I doubt anyone at Olive Garden’s test kitchens have actually heard of it.

The Spaniards just leave the ham on the counter covered in a moist cheese cloth and graze on it until it’s gone.  If people are coming over you can prepare a platter, but day-to-day you can just walk over anytime you need a ham break!

As someone who’s been misrung so many times (e.g. higher than advertised price, rung up for more of an item than I purchased) and who recognizes that not everyone’s spatial reasoning skills developed around the same time as the release of Tetris (e.g. they can’t pack a bag efficiently to save their lives), I really…
