I decided to take two Hits for the Team. with no coupon ! not to worry . a awarded myself extra Kudos. 1 ) the $ 1 Taco : mine was crispy , not greasy . contents were minimal , but tasted OK. nice crunch on the shell , that had some oil-flavor. very little cumin flavor , just a hint . the sauce was not hot , which would have been nice. conclusion : at my BK , OK for a Buck. 2 ) IF Whopper if you had an App , you could get a IFW and a BeefW for $ 7. I feel apps are like an insidious disease , like the Great Masquerader Itself. the Tertiary Version is a bummer , the books suggest. Al Capone found out HimSelf they did their best to hunt around on the cash register for the $ 7 , but no-go . two whoppers at one sitting would have been problematic ,and after that Delicious Taco , ............ I always order extra tomatoes , and pickles. some nice char-flavor , but not as much as the beef W. condiments make the items at BK for me this was a decent ' burger ' the beef W would have been beefier, duh ! near the end of the burger [sic] there developed some vegetable flavors : dried green peas as in split ( green ) pea soup , but w no ham flavor whatsoever. all FastFood has a pronounced lingering aftertaste foe me. this after-taste was not unpleasant unless you can't stand split green pea soup , with no ham nor any other flavors in the soup. over all , not bad at all . this burger costs $ 1.00 more that the beef version. Id say , after the curiosity for something like this gets sated , its going to be a minor item on the menu at the same price , possible a different result. the CattleMen's Assoc. and AgraCon have nothing to worry about here at BK. in a few minutes I going to have an icy cold Hoponius Union , in a frozen glass as a personal reward : and I am looking forward to it !

@Kerry Beal the butter chicken looks exactly like TJ's it does the job from time to time.

based on your observations above its possible that the initial graph-line shows you what the program is going to do and the bar-graph shows you the progress for that program. a nice feature but probably neither is a reflection of measured tempature inside the pot ? still nice to know when one wonders what's going on and an approximation until the end of the program.

when is the NATIONAL SNEAK SOME EGGPLANT INTO YOUR NEIGHBOR’S PORCH DAY ? that one is going to be very popular.

I think that's a feature only w this newer model and beyond. the current top model is the 15 psi model https://www.amazon.com/Instant-Pot-60-Max-Electric/dp/B077T9YGRM/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=ipot+pressure+cooker&qid=1565268940&s=gateway&sr=8-10

Nice I dont understand the difference between just the line-graph and the line-graph w the bars underneath it did you do something to get the bar graphs ? and what do they add to the information ?

Ill look into them then

nice review thanks. Ill await some coupons and then look into this.

don't forget the GTA and the LunchLadies !

Subway jumps on The Wagon : https://www.theverge.com/2019/8/7/20758429/subway-beyond-meatball-marinara-sub-meatless-restaurant-testing-us-canada are these chains terrified of something ? a week or so ago the WSJ had an article on BYND. it for some reason didn't make it to the On-Line versions. if you read the WSJ , aside from the Murdock #@%)Y_#)%Y@#&^% , somewhere in the middle of articles their is a line or two that's worth thinking about. in the article , they quoted the CEO/Etc. essentially they or he said every thing is Sooooo Rosy. etc then they quoted a restaurant chain CEO that serves the Burgers. I am not quoting exactly , but it said , more or less traffic in the restaurants was way up , because people were curious about the burgers. the boil italics is mine. as the burgers are more expensive than beef , a pocket-book issue that a trump card I see penetration in the Markets having a limit , at some point. interesting to see when that is.

I love trying prepared curries , such as the above too bad , they all seem to have way too much NsCl

The Week isn't over yet But Im very pleased you will both plan to be back next year. as always thank your for including Us on your Trips

yes indeed. Id like to try some Old Beef Blade Roast ? Outside skits ? sirloin flap meat ? Im in no hurry , as its not likely to happen , any time soon.

this isn't really new , but it made it to the WSJ https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-new-trend-in-steak-old-beef-11564997401?mod=searchresults&page=1&pos=4 or , due to pay-wall ; google The New Trend in Steak: Old Beef for review purposes : "'Steakhouses looking for the next big thing are hoping to lure diners with a new hook: old beef. Traditionally, U.S. restaurants have served meat from cattle that are no older than two years; older animals can be tougher and more susceptible to disease. But the meat tends to have a richer flavor. Taking a cue from restaurants in Spain, especially the Basque region, where “vaca vieja” is a tradition, more U.S. restaurants are putting old beef on the menu.'' ""Bazaar Meat in Las Vegas was one of the first U.S. restaurants to offer older cows when it opened in 2014. Most diners still order the younger steak, says executive chef Alex Pitts, but interest in the older offerings has grown, now comprising about 15% of steak orders, says Mr. Pitts. "" "'At Corrida in Boulder, chef and co-owner Amos Watts started selling older beef last year. The 8- to 12-year-old angus tomahawk ribeye sells for $110 a pound. To make it more tender, the steak is dry aged, a process which helps break down the meat."" "" Because older cattle is at higher risk for disease, U.S. government regulations require meat processors to remove the spine, brain and other tissues when slaughtering cattle older than 30 months. That can make it difficult to find plants willing to process older cows, says Jordan Beeman, who runs HeartBrand Beef, a ranch in Flatonia, Texas. "" has anyone tried Older Meat ? or has a place where it can be purchased and cooked at home ? Pretty Pricey it seems the usual more flavorful cuts on an older steer or cow , shoulder , etc would ideally lend themselves to SV as at least an initial part to the cooking.

@ElsieD pleased your a home safely Im sure so is Zeus ! and again , thai you for the menu's and taking us along ! MC says , pls say hello to Zeus.

of note : https://thetakeout.com/review-burger-king-taco-1836957917 and BK supposedly Aug 8th or so , nation wide , will have ImpFoods ' burgers " w their App ( and Apps are eveil BTW ) you can get one Beef Wopper , and one fake Wopper and perhaps they are not labeled as such ,and get to decided so much for Sweden being the Index I guess

@TdeV outstanding ! lamb 133 F until tender ! nice. I can't really say if 130 F is tastier that 133 F but you seem to have the right idea ! i something think that Pasteur HimSelf might have found 1`25 F the Pasteurization Point would have been nice but he really spent his Early , and Later dates with A Wine Problems may personal beverages later ..................

for me , lossing a pound or two is not difficult at all. I was doing well , long term , no issues , just putting a bit less on my plate then there was thew HeatWave1 , then the HeatWave2 then I discovered TJ's Wraps , and delicious Chicken in Tubs. ! weather is a bit cooler here its easy for me to mis breakfast so we will see. Populations Studies are notoriously difficult to design , and enact. these days , there is so much ' monetary ' pressure on studies , no Cabal wants to loose its Free Time on the Trough. it might be sugar in soda , or what not. this is a bit off track , my apologies. that being said , different genetic groups , might be , well , different.

@liuzhou your dinners at home , and meals in restaurants are always interesting Im wondering what the Gravy FR lasted of ? brown meat gravy ? something else ?

as in all things : how much more is ' soft release ' going to cost you ? can you easily afford the difference ? I haven't had any problems w puncture but its rare what I vac has bones. its easy to double bag from time to time. I personally have not done ' delicate fish ' Id look at it that way.

I guess Im the odd man out i think it makes fine gravy , and sometimes a nice ' dip ' for sandwiches on the other hand , for fresh beef i almost always use 130 f for Corned Beef , 140 , and for chicken and turkey 142 not much liquid in the bag , and not a lot of solids. I think you get those solids at a higher temp.

I was more interested in autophagia and its possible health benefits from 14 hrs of fasting weight loss is a very different matter. its not complicated : eat more calories than you use , wt goes up etc.

@shelby what temp do you smoke at ?

Ive been interested in fasting for a while there are said to be some health benefits. an article in the WSJ this weekend renewed my interest : https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-fasting-cure-is-no-fad-11564676512?mod=searchresults&page=1&pos=1 google : tThe Fasting Cure Is No Fad this might get around the pay-wall in essence , for reviweq purposes : ""Fasting is one of the biggest weight-loss trends to arise in recent years. Endorsed by A-list celebrities and the subject of a spate of best-selling books, it was the eighth most-Googled diet in America in 2018.'' ""There are different ways to go about it, but I advise patients to omit either dinner or breakfast, so that they don’t ingest any food for at least 14 hours at a stretch. That makes lunch the most important meal of the day. It also reduces the time spent each day processing food and lengthens the period devoted to cleansing and restoring the body’s cells, both of which have positive health effects.'' ""Adopting this technique is not as difficult as it may seem. If you sleep from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m., you’ve already fasted for eight hours. Now you only need another six. It’s healthy to avoid eating late in the evening to let your body burn energy from food rather than store it, so if you eat dinner by 7 p.m., that’s another four hours. For breakfast, you can limit yourself to coffee or tea (maybe with a small piece of fruit) and make lunch your first proper meal. By that time, you’re clearly beyond the 14 hours and don’t need to restrain yourself: You can eat until you are full."" ""There is a logic to it. When we eat, our body releases insulin. That disrupts the process of autophagy (from the Greek, meaning “self-devouring”), by which cells deconstruct old, damaged components in order to release energy and build new molecules. Autophagy helps to counteract the aging of cells and builds immunity. Fasts stimulate autophagy and allow the full molecular process to take place, as a team led by Frank Madeo at the University of Graz in Austria found in 2017.'' ""asting also can contribute to brain health and happiness. The neurobiologist Mark Mattson, who retired this year from the National Institutes of Health, has demonstrated in experiments for two decades that nerve growth factors contribute significantly to brain health and positive mood. He also found that fasting, restricting calories and exercising spur distinct increases in the best-known nerve growth factor, BDNF.'' etc very Interesting I think. does anyone follow this method , which seems benign ?
