What problems have you seen with, let's say, a Wolf Gas range, 30", 4 burner, with no electronics?

The whole Daitch thing might really have been a secondary name? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Food_Emporium

All I worry about here is the bad pizza.

Who else rips all these out upon receiving the magazine? Along with all the fold-over cologne and perfume ads, which basically stink?

Don't read the newspaper, ladies.

"Imagine there's no heaven..." It's easy if you try...

ADDENDUM: Pro review, on Serious Eats... https://slice.seriouseats.com/2010/01/the-bronx-louie-and-ernies-great-sausage-pizza-white-pies-pelham-bay-bronx-nyc.html

When one "dines out" for only the second time in eight or so months, might as well be at... At least in their lovely backyard. This is known, in NYC pizza parlance, as a half sausage. You don't have to say cheese, you don't have to say pizza, you don't have to say pizza pie, you just say: "Gimme a large, half sausage." And then wait in that backyard, with your diet coke (I WAS DRIVING), wife and friends (who, since they tend to not eat too much sausage, ordered their own mushroom (a mistake, imo, but who am I to argue?!)), to enter pizza nirvana, burnt roof of mouth included.

And at least one sane cook.

The pig probably wasn't that happy either.

I seriously have no knowledge of Daitch? I certainly remember the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company!

We're talking about home cooking here, not prepping greens for 75 meals in a restaurant, or cooking green beans for a catering event of 1,000 people. And here at home, I'm pretty sure that I precisely control whatever cooking, blanching, shocking I happen to be doing.

Oh god, I'm never leaving my house!

And everyone, I mean everyone, would be healthier is this stuff made up a bigger percentage of their diets.

Keep digging - never know what one might find! California gets in on the act: Never forget booze... Or BBQ... They are all delicious! In 1940, anyway... Yes, Good Housekeeping was on top of its game: A few Italians snuck in: A few really old ones:

Strip steak with pan gravy, tater tots, roasted cauliflower. Za'atar pita crisps and céleri remoulade served but not pictured.

I remember Grand Union! (And Food Fair, and HIll's (that was my place of employment while in high school and once old enough to have a job), and King Kullen, and...). those were the days! Except if you were a first born child.

Our first spin together... I’m a simple vanilla, Philadelphia-style ice cream guy. The Whynter spins fast...I mean the dasher spins so much faster than my old Lello Gelato junior. Makes sense, I guess. Good ice cream, no crystals.

What is lasagna, if not macaroni and cheese?

They offered so much less for me when I was a kid.

I have actually taken the classes and been "certified" by City Harvest NYC. They collect unused food and redistribute. They take people shopping and show them how to make smart choices to feed families on these limited amounts of assistance. They give cooking classes. Unfortunately, COVID came along here too. But at some point, I hope to be able to volunteer.

I think this totally starts to get into areas best left unspoken here. But yeah, the whole system is fucked up. Let's not even start talking about how much food is thrown away every day.

I have one of those - but I wanted to do this slow roast thing in the CSO, since it's less to mess around with and clean up.
