TY Both. Im glad to see "e-ma" mints have none...

Maranatha is a popular brand name of organic nut butters

Im on Weight Watchers and I save up as many points all day just so I can fit in an Almond Butter and Jelly Sandwich every night... YUMMY! I will admit to being an addict. But its good for you. My favorite brand is Maranatha. I even bought a stirrer for it http://www.witmerproducts.com/pbutter.html Who shares my AB passion?

What is the Japanese word and characters for ASPARTAME/NUTRASWEET?

Sara Moulton was a very knowledgeable person, YES. But, I also thought her annoyingness factor was too high. She apologized too much for touching the food and banging the utensils on the bowls and her on and off smile was distracting... And everytime she cooked turkey it was "Turkey-Lurkey" She could be as plain as a Quaker or ugly as a horse and flat chested and Id have watched her religiously if she wasnt so annoying... She also chewed with her mouth open...

So.... Who has this years KFC Christmas page?

I hope I dont sound uncaring or bigoted against ALL poor people (cause Im not) but one Christmas I bought my, how shall I say, Welfare Abusing Drama Queen, "I have Expensive Tastes" ex sister in law and her hubby, a nice bottle of Gourmet Balsamic Vinegar and Extra Virgin Olive Oil for $50.00. Only to have her "forget" who gave it to her 6 months later and tell me (while sitting on my couch) "Last Christmas someone gave us vinegar and oil and we tasted the oil and it was rancid already in the bottle, we threw it out!" I doubt HIGHLY, that Williams Sonoma would sell already rancid oil...

Okay NO MORE KABOCHA SALAD!!!! Ive eaten kabocha every day for 2 weeks. It is too darn good! Im so stuffed! How can it be so low cal and so bulky?

I was at Target today with my son, and of course when you are at Target or Walmart with a kid you must buy them something! (LOL) So after steering him away from XBOX and Wii land, I got him over to the Magazines and thats near PC Software and I noticed all the new Cooking Games they had... Titles like: Chocolatier Fast Food Tycoon Burger Island Roller Rush (Drive-In Eatery) Diner Dash: Flo on the Go Restaurant Tycoon Restaurant Empire Cake Mania I, II, and III Diner Dash 2 Coffee Tycoon (Im sure Starbucks started this way!) Coffee House Chaos Do any of you buy these and try them out prior to getting a restaurant of your own? Or are they just too campy?

Is Methocel the same thing as Cellulose Gel?

Thats the way I was taught too, and the way it says to use it in a few books I have.

I am constantly intrigued by HACKING things. Even though I never truly hack anything, I just read about it and gain knowledge I think things like Molecular Gastronomy are fantastic. I recently read about a 3D SUGAR PRINTER! It makes 3D sugar candy shapes I knew I just had to inform you all about it. http://www.candyfab.org What food hacks have you found?

That last post made me go on a googling tangent: http://www.inthe80s.com/food/index.shtml Cheese Kisses! Tuna Twist!

I love nutter butters but have never seen their wafers....those look sooo good, even tho the picture is like 1 inch :-p Where do you usually find them? ← All the supermarkets near me have always sold them since I was a little girl... I always peel them open, plop all that PB Cream on a plate, eat the wafer part, then eat the blob of PB Cream... mmmmmmmmmmm I have a package for my son at my house right now: http://i1.tinypic.com/80mbe4i.jpg

Nutter Butter Cream Patties!!!! Wafer Style, not sandwich style http://shop.acmemarkets.com/shop/assets/pr...04400000699.jpg

Thats the picture yes. But she posted the actual recipe once and it had sugar. I love it! Im on Weight Watchers (Actually the much more efficacious Wendy Plan) and Kabocha Salad is 1 point if made with Splenda and Lite Mayo. So I wanna make it that same way as Kris did but with my adjustments.

I have searched several ways but can not find the Kabocha Salad recipe that Torakris makes. Anyone know where I can find it?

I am turned off of ever tasting Quorn, due to reading this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusarium_venenatum If anyone can dispute or back it up Ill be appreciative

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Are there any NON Soy TVP meat substitutes?
