Future “beef rice” reminds me of a cereal from the Seventies
I’m not going to make the same lazy jokes Colbert went with on this creation. Personally, I think it could be a step in the right direction alongside lab-grown chicken nuggets. My first thought when I saw it brought back … Continue reading
Picky eaters
These types make it difficult for those with real dietary issues, especially when they go to the gourmet and chain joints.
I’m on a package!
Jennifer brought home this product with my surname (cognome in Italian) on it! I’m quite popular in Mexico, Switzerland and India! Fucking Nestle owns maggi.com too. Anyway, her son Mason is undergoing surgery over the weekend so he’ll be on … Continue reading
Blueberry milk is back!
No this is not the weird “blue” milk from Star Wars. What you see is a real product via HEB and some (relatively) local farms. I’ve been hooked on 1836 Farms stuff since last Fall, namely their chocolate and coffee offerings. … Continue reading
Pry to be eaten first, Nov. ’22 edition
Given his aristocratic (and racist) nature, I don’t think HP Lovecraft would’ve found the humor in this prank. The person who also did this titled it a Turkraken because the general public isn’t knowledgable of the Cthulhu Mythos. Not a … Continue reading
Today in weird EU food (April 2022)
My friends in the Netherlands are now on vacation! Another great trip to Euro Disney (insert French-accented laughter). They drove this time which meant they drove through Belgium’s lamest, most annoying, goody goody region, Flanders…stupid Flanders! Meanwhile, Jeremy sent a … Continue reading
Ginger-Zed Men!
To all you Mills and younger, these cookies represent Zed, Sean Connery’s character in the cult movie Zardoz. They are not Borat cookies with the swimsuit in the wrong color.
Why I never went to Larry Flynt’s house for Thanksgiving
It’s because his household never serves turkey and ham is more of a Christmas thing.
Upgraded to Executive Level at Costco!
Jennifer finally added me to her Costco card so I don’t have to keep borrowing hers and putting my thumb on the photo to “trick” the cashier. Yeah, one actually bothered to give me the third degree! While we were … Continue reading
Some changes on the breakfast sandwiches I make
Last month I started imitating a TikTok movie Jennifer showed me how to make those delicious yet pricey breakfast sandwiches you can buy at Starbucks. Recently, I ditched the ciabatta rolls. They’re too leathery to eat most days and they … Continue reading
September’s demo of my cooking prowess
Jennifer is a TikTok addict much like she remains loyal to FeceBook. Personally, I find TikTok to be another steaming pile of shit filled with confessionals (don’t care), murder-mystery storytelling wannabes (don’t care) and my favorite thing to hate on, assholes … Continue reading
My favorite non-buffet salad with iceberg
This was the culmination of a few things on my last big spending-for-supplies trip. Not just the food, but a really good set of knives to put these ingredients together with less fuss. Again, everyone who didn’t know me very … Continue reading
“Microwave Safe” my ass
I tried to nuke some hot dogs for a quick lunch because it was new comic book day which eats up the bulk of my time off. While I came back to the microwave to get the meat ready for … Continue reading
Yee Haw! (still not a good foreign policy)
I’m surprised the “rabbit” didn’t need an ambulance from my weight on its back. Obviously it’s fake but the jackalope is the main attraction at this bar named after the mythical creature. Given how crappy the service and dirty the tables were, … Continue reading
My first attempt at “fancy” cooking in a while
Yesterday, it was my turn to resolve dinner because Jennifer got a one-time gig to administer CV-19 vaccinations; I think she inoculated over 300 people too. I wanted to try something different instead of takeout. Plus I’m trying to impress … Continue reading
