The best Dr Pepper was that limited time I guess berries & cream flavor they did of it for a pretty good while, I'd kill a man in cold blood if it'd put me in supply of that again.

Bring back Josta. If you are going to re-release a lovely crystal pepsi clone the least you can do is re-release the purple proto energy drink soda.

Adam Ruins Oatmeal is excellent: -Steel cut, non-instant -1 Tbsp soy sauce -1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil -Scallions for some crunch The Twitter thread suggested I add some sauteed spinach and a fried egg. They were correct. I also added a slice of turkey bacon and like 1/5 a jalapeño, fried. Also good choices.

So it's just congee? Sounds good to me. You can add literally anything to it. Only thing missing is some grated ginger. Mu Zeta has a new favorite as of 17:29 on Feb 10, 2019 |

Congee was one of the comparisons drawn in the aforementioned Twitter thread. I'll have a look at a recipe for it later. I only had "instant" steel cut available, but it still turned out amazing and I'm gonna make so much more of this stuff.

the only good oatmeal for me is plain, salty oatmeal. no sweet poo poo put in it. same goes for meats. i dont want your loving 100% sugary steak sauce on my perfectly cooked ribeye, nor do i want the most bitter steak sauce globbed all over it. just let me eat the meat as it is. and another thing: I hate smoky meat when it's not perfect. when it is perfect, it's a nice hint upon the baked flavor of the meat with the spices and all, but when its not its like i'm eating edible coal. i do not want to eat coal, that's what I learned from my first and fifth christmas celebrations

No, he's quite correct. gently caress sugar in anything it doesn't need to be in. There is no goddamn reason to put it in three quarters of the things the American sugar cane and corn lobbies mandate it be put in.

Idk that you read the other 3/4s of the post bc I agree with you And in defense of america’s candy bread, people exaggerate it like it’s some vision quest to get regular non-corn-syruped bread. If you care at all there’s plenty of actual decent bread. You just have to look at all instead of grabbing a package- you may even have to slice the loaf yourself  Unless you’re one of many americans whose circumstances prevent that and just wants some loving bread for easy meals. In that case, you know her real issue- the glorious free market Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 22:18 on Feb 10, 2019 |

there's a good reason that the gluten free fad became a thing. Everybody feels rundown and tired all the time. Everybody wants an excuse, something they can do to feel OK. Stop eating gluten, start drinking smoothies, do whatever "yoga" is, etc Of course the reason everyone is rundown isn't because of their personal day to day decisions, it's a systemic problem.

Everyone shits all over La Croix and the insufferable hipsters that latched on to it are terrible but the flavored sparkling water craze of the past few years helped me quit soda when literally nothing else would work. I spent years trying Mios, plain water, diet sodas, whatever but with those Bubly/La Croix drinks I haven't had or wanted soda in over a year. The main criticism seems to be how lovely they taste but that's usually down to the person being a sucrose golem that needs liquid diabetes to survive. Once you adapt to not ingesting a pound of sugar every day the taste is pretty great and soda seems so sugary it's disgusting. The best are the wholefoods brand though, which doesn't help the hipster image.

Netflix should make streams where they have a set schedule of stuff playing 24/7. So instead of looking for something to watch you could just turn on the documentary stream, or the comedy stream, and watch whatever's on.

I like the idea, but if it was anything like the music streaming services I wouldn't be a big fan of it. Like pandora sometimes gets things right and plays a new song I haven't heard and like, but I skip more songs than I listen to. I feel like a movie stream that guesses what you want to watch would be the same way.

I would agree but that means turning on the comedy stream means a good chance of Seth Rogen or Kevin Hart movies playing and I'd really rather avoid that

I wonder if Netflix wouldn't do that because it just doesn't give them enough data. They want to know exactly what title you clicked on, how long you watched, did multiple sittings or all at once, etc. Just putting on a stream in the background means an unengaged viewer and probably uses up unnecessary bandwidth. It's not like they can serve up ads during these marathons.

I wouldn’t compare a Netflix Random to the music equivalent. TV just gets used a different way. Like, my one big criticism of being streaming-only compared to classic cable is there’s no equivalent to just turning on a half decent channel and having it go. Streaming and podcasts, which are my go-tos now, well I’ll end up half-listening to something I actually am interested in and having to rewatch/listen later. With good old cable I could do whatever while having my cartoons/star trek/sci fi originals/mantracker/etc just play on the day’s shows and watch, listen, or ignore without missing anything. If I could just hit a genre, select movies/tv/mix, and get a random spew of content with ads I’d use it for sure when cooking, painting, cleaning, etc Also, literally everyone should get spotify premium. 90% of music I would ever want, on demand, for the cost of one fast food meal a month.

There are 264 episodes of Frasier. they could have an hour long Frasier block on the comedy channel every day and only go into repeats after four months. There is so much content out there, dude. Seriously. But of course everyone's definition of good is different. Some of it you won't like. Some of it you will. Some of it you think you wouldn't like but if you watch it you find out it's not bad. One of the benefits of my streams idea is that you'd be exposed to things you wouldn't normally select for yourself.
