Yeah, I don't know about any health benefits, but water or club soda with fruit or vegetables in it is delicious and refreshing.

There is a reason why our ancestors first used grains for making alcoholic beverages and only later for eating. The world would be a better place if palms grew everywhere so our ancestors could have just acquired an easy source of alcohol without agriculture.

I had Pimms at that place I went with the mason jar drinks last week. It had orange and cucumber slices in it, but it was made with ginger beer which was friggin amazing. Put ginger beer in everything.

I have always wished my love of pork rinds would become socially acceptable, but not like this... I bet those taste like the gross rear end frito lays ones but with more sea salt and rosemary.

This poo poo has rosemary and is $5.49 a bag. Extreeeeeeme snackin', yo." Also, rosemary makes my throat close in on itself, so I consider these to be a downgrade imo

I stumbled across this bizarrely sexually-charged article in which the author personifies various types of grain as men and then introduces them to us, the readers, as if we are being pressured into a blind date.

All the deliciousness of poor people food doesn't outstrip bougie hipster types' intense desire to look down their noses at others. Ever noticed when people like that do deign to venture into a bodega or a small restaurant they've gotta call it a "hole in the wall" or some other passive aggressive snipe?

GOTTA STAY FAI posted:I knew nothing about Blue Apron when a friend of mine sent me a free shipment. It was okay. I still have and use the ice pack and insulating bag that came with it. I don't think I'd pay to have it for myself but I can see how it might be convenient if you lived in a rural area and didn't have access to stuff like shiitake mushrooms and fresh mint. I don't see how it would be any better than just ordering the ingredients online instead

Improbable Lobster posted:I don't see how it would be any better than just ordering the ingredients online instead Eh, it's not really. It's a pricey alternative to it. If you don't cook that often and aren't good with recipes, it's a good alternative. I like how they only send you as much as you need for the recipe, though. So if you're trying some recipe you found online and you buy a package of fresh Marjoram or whatever, you aren't stuck wasting the rest of the herbs after spending $6.75 on a package of them. Sure, you could use those items up on the rest of your meals for the week, but if you aren't regularly cooking full meals, one-off ingredients expire pretty fast.

But if you learn to cook, you will learn things like that every co-op in existence has bulk spices so you can buy exactly as much as you want (as well as some larger chains like Winco).

My town doesn't even have a grocery store and most places don't deliver out here. I could see that being useful if you lived in the middle of nowhere and don't commute into the city regularly if it didn't cost $10 a goddamn serving
