I typed a long review on how great Renata frozen pizza was and something went wrong posting it. Not doing that again.
Just trust: This is the best frozen pizza I've ever had, try it if you spot it in the grocery store.

If u like sweet potato, just got this @ dat costco. It's pretty good, SUPER STICKY.

It's like sweetpotato jerky but not the fully dried kind. Bit like twizzler consistency, but without the chemical taste.

I don't do sushi that often, but I love it and it was time to make some.

Sushi rice looks amazing (soaked, just before cooking).

Thank you guys

I have to say, it is a lot of effort, I mean, I don't have (yet) rice cooker, so need to do whole process "manually". Washing rice first, takes me like 30-40 times rinsing rice to get it clean (yes tp, like you said - washing rice is a MUST

), then soaking, then cooking, then cooling. After all that, it takes me good 2 hours (depends on amount and kind of rolls I need to do) to roll that sushi. Whole process is exhausting for me, back always hurt, even after losing a lot of weight, still not an easy task for me. But then, my family and I love sushi, this one, home made, so I can do that once every 4-5 months I guess.

True that.

But technology has been harnessed and perverted to dis-educate - and it is becoming harder and harder to discern the truth from the noise.

And educated people, who are best equipped to help prepare their offspring to resist it, are having fewer and fewer offspring.

Trying to learn how to make ramen, but with a Midwest laziness and technique. Started by making a broth from a package of meaty soup bones and the fat and bones from the steak we had on Friday. Then I roasted mushrooms in the air fryer and sauted the bok choy in oil. Reheated the steak in the microwave and attempted to plate the “toppings” on top of the noodles. A shot of sriracha cuz I like heat. The “tare” we mixed into the broth is soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, ginger powder, garlic powder, and toasted sesame oil.

Not looking to be authentic, just yummy. Stayed tuned because next week we’re making Costco rotisserie chicken ramen.

tiramisu may have one of the widest gaps between garbage level and god like taste of any dessert

I'd say likely 70-80% of tiramisu is bad, cakey, mushy, coffee concentrate flavored trash
But then when you have some really good tiramisu that just hits all those texture and taste balances perfect, for me, it just can't be beat.
I love me some ice cream, doughnuts, and cheesecake, but DAMN do I love me some expertly prepared tiramisu!

100% agree.
I had many tiramisu desserts, then for a first time I went to Rome and tried it in some of the best cafe's there. AMAZING.
Then went to other restaurants there and those had them again, midiocre. So it depends where you get it, some may make them terrible, some make really tasty.
I bet I will never have such an amazing one in UK.

Trying out different milk alternatives the next few weeks to see if anything compares to the natural sweetness and creaminess of my beloved Oatmilk.

Pacific Hemp Milk. On par with the thickness/creaminess of oatmilk, maybe more. Although I like higher acidity coffee and notice this stuff really clumps up when added to coffee. Slight vegetal taste, and none of that natural sweetness. I could see using this for cooking though.

Ripple Pea Milk. While I cannot argue with the nutritional benefits from this product and the 0 sugar with the highest protein macros of any milk alternative, I simply cannot overlook the fact it literally tastes like thinned out paint. Ruins the taste of my coffee, and even with the strong flavor of good fresh coffee, I can still taste the paint. Moooving on

Orange Cream Coca-Cola tastes nothing like orange and nothing like cream, damn sure nothing like orange cream. Didn't even finish the 20oz bottle, not worth the sugar and calories for something so bad. And the Blackberry Dr. Pepper tastes like medicine.

Just makes me long for the glory of Mango Pepsi. Along with Pomegranate 7-UP and Coke Coffee, it was one of the only flavored sodas I actually enjoyed. All of which are discontinued so I continue to have no reason to buy soda. Not a bad problem to have, but it is just nice to have the option when you want it.

I love good beer, especially heavy ones, but weak beer is awful and undrinkable when warm.

IPAs and stouts are my favorites, preferably bitter and with lots of hops.

But of common generic beers I think that Pabst is one of the better ones, along with Budweiser. Coors and Miller are the worst.

Back in November, my sister and I found that Fanta Orange here in Europe contained artificial sweetener, so we bought nine types of orange soda and had a taste test, to decide what to drink instead.

Your description sounds like how we thought that Orange Ramune (Japanese soda from Asian food store) tasted like. Nothing like orange. Only vile and synthetic.

Top points went to Lidl's orange soda (Lidl is a cheap supermarket chain all over Europe) and a domestic orange soda called Zingo. We found both just as good, just different. We think that perhaps LIdl's had been made especially to taste like Fanta Orange does.

If you took a real orange and made it a soda, it'd be considered vile too. That's why they use artificial, because real oranges are a mid-tier froot.
