Reduced TG this year. Just kids and d-i-l....all tested negative within a day or two. Shrimp and artichoke dip Football Roasted dark meat...SV Breast...gravy (converted a turkey-hating dil) Sprout/cranzin/onion thing au gratin pots smoked yam stuffing (but unstuffed) jalapeno cornbread (made by the son) pear tarte tatin

And "sinful" and "decadent" remain negatives in my world.

ooey-gooey barf

Nor was Pepin unless he sneaked into a chef job late in life

Perhaps when applied to people the 'ie' grates?

The "ie" ending grates. Its over familiar and has a negative sound to my ear. Commie, bolshie, groupie, zombie....

To me, craveable is one of those BS food writer terms that is way over-used by unoriginal Instagram writers. Should be suppressed

If the majority rules in language then all the quaint British expressions are rendered meaningless.

Chef is one of the many words whose meaning has been degraded. The overall trend saddens me. Somehow in 2020 notorious equals famous when it used to equal infamous.

Stale bread chunks are a reward for Henry the airedale. Come when I call there's bread in it for you.

I see it in resumes all the time. Its a black mark. But its part of the general misuse of words and trend to hyperbole that is rampant. Is any dish in a diner/drive-in/dive truly amazing?

What does OED know about BBQ? Is there BBQ in the Oxford where they make the dictionary? I think not. And, being serious for a moment, common usage (as opposed to original derivation) usually determines a word's definition according to those who compile dictionaries. So all of the aforementioned definitions are correct in the places where they are used actively. And context matters too. If you offer someone in NC a BBQ sandwich, they'd expect pulled pork...in TX probably brisket.

Gotta put those treacherous bastards on a sheet pan and even then...

Fresser, I believe. Pedantic, I know.

a new one has appeared recently...crave-worthy.

Curate this!

Amazing, to die for, fat is flavor, reduce down, layers of flavor

The cretins at our local Acme Market keep running sales on things that they cannot restock. Morons.

Problem is the panini thing takes up too much space and who eats panini all the time? I've inherited a few crock pots. Want one or two?

Whats the advantage of this slow behemoth?

Yes. Its the Breville one, so its better. 😉

Induction plate and panini press are also unused things.

He knew my parents

Exactly. Whats the rush? So we eat a little later.
