@Norm Matthews interesting selection of Chips. i see three type , all corn ? Corn chips are the best ; regular , BBQ ( those being ' curls ' AKA Frito like ) and flat corn ? I avoid chips like the plague. I can't stop eating corn chips too bad Tj's or else where doesnt have a lessSalt-WhyNotAddYourOwn style of corn chip.

now now not to Rain [ more snow , CR**AP ] on any ones Parade well , Ill get my coat and say thanks but pls consider PotChips w less Salt

I think is was a joke.

@weinoo a great saucier it is. I also have the medium. My sister had the Large but I gave that away to some of her friends. Penzey's these days is easier for me to get than P from Spain.

If I can remember , guac. Ill look for two avocados etc haven't made that in a long time TJ's sampled http://freezermealfrenzy.com/2018/12/trader-joes-coconut-shrimp-review/ I don't care for coconut shavings , a texture thing I like coconut flavor though these were pretty good. with some Sweet/Hot Chili sauce https://www.thedailymeal.com/eat/most-popular-trader-joes-item-america/022519

@Desiderio is that chocolate on the top ? if so , was there any inside ? and what keep the chocolate from melting and sliding off ? best looking PaC Ive ever seen and Im a bit of a connoisseur of the PaC if i say so myself.

@gfweb Interesting very well written book : " The Snowball " https://www.amazon.com/Snowball-Warren-Buffett-Business-Life/dp/0553384619 See's story is in there and very interesting. lots of food ref : Warren Buffet : " I don't eat anything a 2 your old wouldn't eat "

@SLB I feel for you. I also have attended meetings but did my best not to initiate any my self some time ago. an interesting study , w snacks of course from @Anna N might be this : do these meetings accomplish more than the " standard " of its Place and Time ? or do they decide to review the next time They Meet for more Snacks ? I know where Id be putting my vote. just saying

@Kim Shook take a look and See too bad they don't give you a sample of your choice ! which they did to me so far back when time do change generally not so much for the better but some times locally good enough ?

@Kim Shook nice. very nice good for you A long long time ago there were two establishments that have Changed : https://www.mariecallendersmeals.com and See's https://www.sees.com back then , not so much better than now BTW there was a MC actually shop near by that made there most of their Pies you took the aluminum pie container back and got some sort of rebate for it vey delicious fruit pies w very nice crust fresh indeed same for See's jut saying

@adey73 thank you for the tip. I say two vids : Chicken and Bread that's fine since the original Anova Crew did very well on their efforts and merged w a a very lage For Profit syndicate I don't mind they deserve it Bora Bara etc but now its a bean counter situation this that and more for the beancounter I dint mind they count the Beans but more often than not the BC miss the long term goals : An Anova Combi Oven In Every Kitchen and Anova will leave the Chicken up to you. Id shudder that these days THe Bean Conters love their Optoins so they might make the new Anova Oven by subscription Only\ Look Out For that cheers

in MA the 3 buck Chuck is very harsh on the Palate

Fried Bread is undeerappreciated and lethal.

i would never mind those bars over cookies.

CA is much more efficient on its added-on costs here in MA , its at least $ 1 a bottle for a handler that never handles the bottle. but has outstanding connections to Our Fine State Legislators. this is true.

never give up steam. its all about the steam . and a sealed oven for Fresh Bread , toasted , Toasts-SelfSteams.

@adey73 I was unable to view your vid is there a different ref. ? thanks

@blue_dolphin thank you for the MTG tip the BTB may work for some , but it sounds like a SaltLick just saying. so I hemmed and hawed , waddles and widdles and decided to try the MTG sample pack. this stuff looks more suitable for a sauce dans le pan than a stock. some rarefied flavors etc. looking forward to them

salt is simple : if you can get something commercially made with less salt , rather than more , for the same eventual flavor then Less is More. almost all commercial products have huge amounts of salt in them as thats what the consumer has gotten used to. commercial soups are a standard for way too much salt / can. no one would currently buy a can of commercial soup , bad , good or outstanding w 50 % less salt in it. commercial products are sold based on the salt content.

im going to have to look into BTB for the beef. TJ's has some Beef Boxed , ill see how much salt it has in it. salt is the Killer , one way or another.

this sort of thing came up on another thread . and I couldn't find a thread on SoupBase , Stock and Gravy base. do you use these concentrated items ? Ive been using https://www.soupbase.com/Soup-Bases/departments/1/ for years. in the past few years , the lower salt versions : https://www.soupbase.com/Low-Reduced-Sodium-Bases-Gels/products/6/ all of these products , including those dry or wet sold in the supermarkets have a lot of salt in them. Salt is not problem for me now , but might be eventually and it could be for most of us. the lower salt versions allow you to add more ' base ' to get to your '' salt point ' the Roasted Chicken and Turkey I like a lot. the Beef to my taste had too much tomato paste and Id like just beef. this company has periodic sales , by signing up for their email you hear about them, . usual free shipping , or a certain % off. I keep the jars in the freezer downstairs , and the one's im using tightly sealed in the kitchen Refrig//Freezer. I use a lot fo 4 x iPot'd plain stock , turkey and chicken , from frozen now made w just turkey or chicken bones , carcass etc and no seasons I add a little of these products to get the seasoning that suits me. I do not work for the company. so ..... do you use products like these ? Im always game to looking new products. these , to me , are much better than what ever you can get in a grocery store. Ive had most of them over the years. the Bacon is literally to die for. just a bit its salty ! deduced salt Ham [ an Oxymoron ? ] is also interesting.

@Duvel Cheeks ? nice I don't suppose any pis of the butcher shop might be posted ?

@Chris Hennes we differ and that's fine

P.S,: nice expertly trimmed of the exogenous fat ! nice again

@Duvel so much WoW so delicious Im sure Id like to ask you to discuss privately how old are those Ox's? no matter its just something way back in my mind An Ox not so Oldy still make Fine Beef Tail Soup or Ragu cheers
