And how would microwave pancakes work, exactly? Would you still have to flip them? You know her son bought her that microwave for Christmas, and she thinks maybe if she uses it every day he'll visit more often. Every time they talk on the phone, she goes and on about how much she loves the microwave he bought her.

Crow Jane posted:The midwest is basically one big starchy wasteland. There was an episode of Cutthroat Kitchen that was all grandmothers, and the final challenge was pies. One of the sabotages that a contestant got was having all heat sources removed except microwaves. I can't remember if she won, but she did successfully bake a pie in a microwave by using a ton of very short nukings and stirring in between each so it would all heat evenly. Turns out that as a grandmother cooking in a small house for a lot of people, she had become extremely adept at using the microwave for everything.

kith_groupie posted:I'm always struck in this thread by how starchy these meals are. Potatoes AND pasta? Bread AND mashed potatoes? I'm a fatty myself but I always try to limit the starch to one aspect and have plenty of veg and protein. Anyone else constantly icked out by how much starch people seem to eat? eating them to excess is a problem "lol who puts a slice of bread over another slice of bread!?" and now i want to make beef stroganoff with scalloped potatoes

Turns out that as a grandmother cooking in a small house for a lot of people, she had become extremely adept at using the microwave for everything.  The "heat source" (Magnetron) in a microwave only has two states of on or off. When you set the power level to something less than 100%, the microwave is just turning the magnetron on and off accordingly.Now, I personally do not own a microwave, but reheat leftovers at work, and I typically double conventional times and run them at 60-70% power depending on how dense what I'm heating is for the same reason of allowing the heat to transfer more evening.

Toast sandwichquote:A toast sandwich is a sandwich made by putting a thin slice of toast between two thin slices of bread with a layer of butter, and adding salt and pepper to taste. Its origins can be traced to the Victorian years.

I spent few weeks in a hospital recently, and the food was interesting to say the least. Here's a full album of the delicacies: https://imgur.com/gallery/dbQ2Q

Probably a dumb question: Why aren't hospitals of all places serving healthy food, especially to recovering patients? I've never been in a hospital for any real length of time. Or do IV drops provide most of the essential nutrients? I know the cynical answer is probably gonna be 'cost', but still.

I like to start and end my day with a half loaf of bread. If I get hungry after that, I'll have 4, 5 pieces of bread and maybe a few slices of bread

mng posted:Probably a dumb question: Why aren't hospitals of all places serving healthy food, especially to recovering patients? I've never been in a hospital for any real length of time. Or do IV drops provide most of the essential nutrients? I work for a company that sells to hospitals, ACOs and physician groups and I can confirm, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that "cost" is the one and only factor involved beyond "what is the bare minimum that will not kill people". Imagine the most cut-throat business imaginable and then imagine that there is constant pressure to pay your physicians ever increasing wages because of hyper-inflated costs of medical school, you are constantly harangued by boards of directors and outside market pressures to constantly update your technological portfolio, usually to the tune of several hundreds of thousands of dollars, and also you are now being legally required to accept a whole bunch of lovely people who now have government "insurance", which is causing a lot more people to engage the system than before and the government insurance usually only pays a fraction of the cost and tells the hospitals to suck it up. If you ever see a hospital gouging costs for a person with private insurance, the main reason is socialized healthcare. And greed, but mostly socialized healthcare. This is not a judgement statement, just a reflection on the current situation.
