Well nothing kitchen related (still looking) but a couple of computer/network items are making their way to me - Anova, KitchenAid and other well-known brands are also discounted

@Smithy I know where Minnesota is, but you could check on Amazon US
Amazon CDN Prime Day:
Considerably cheaper than "Hotlogic"

@lemniscate "I bought a Breville BTA730XL"
After a number of toasters over the years, I would rate this as one of the best, if not the best I have had.
They have really gone up in price since I purchased mine in 2020 (CDN$88) , now they don't seem to be available on Amazon.ca directly (CDN$165 + $20 import fees) I hope yours was a lot cheaper 😃

Not to split too many hairs, but I think it's important to recognize that, beyond the brine injection, the chickens have a rub which contains salt, so there is a disparity between the salt in the meat and the salt in the skin.
Which is why the skin tastes salty and the meat doesn't

I guess since I seldom (if ever) use the app, it had probably lost the connection and I never noticed (or cared?)

Why does it matter?

Full sheet pan - 26 x 18 - not much use afterwards?

WARNING! WARNING!
I do tend to wander off the beaten track on my inet travels
It's a rabbit hole as to how I ended up here:
https://disgustingfoodmuseum.com/most-disgusting-foods-in-the-world/
This is not a "click" to see funniest content!
Century eggs would be the only selection that I might see on someone else's table, having heard of them previously
An interesting side route not to be extensibly explored, but might be found on Google maps 🥸

Since I seldom (if ever) use the app, mine needed to be updated - maybe that's why I got an email

How will this affect vegans?

Received an email today from Anova informing me of an update to their oven app:
"A new update just went live for the Anova Oven App. This app update is the first step in our transition to a new cloud infrastructure — with a mandatory Oven firmware update soon to follow."
"When to update: It's very important to update your app to version 1.1.0 or higher before our new Anova Precision™ Oven firmware goes live in early July.Why: If you fail to update your app ahead of the firmware release, you'll lose connection with your oven from your mobile device — and nobody wants that."This info seemed to be lacking in background about the new firmware (what to expect) and sounded rather ominousJust an aside the app update went very smoothly with none of the connection issues I had experienced in the pastpAnyone else received this info? and what do you make of it?p-

As to "bare bones" noodles - any one tried HAIKU Ramen Noodles - definitely cheap from Amazon

Air Fryer preprogramed settings are just programmed in suggestions - personally I just choose "Air Fry" and choose my own temp and time

I think a "Variety of colours" may be limiting - (hey, if you're in Canada, says so in your profile!)

It's for a family of three. DD, SIL and my grandson.
Largest one possible and don't choose the "oven type" - racks have to be re-positioned and allow food and coatings to fall through, they claim a larger volume but the reality is different - "Instant" makes one that I would recommend
Prices have gone up by about $CDN40 since I got mine!!!

After all these decades of not having one, I finally got a brotform.
With your "username" I would have thought you would have chosen a French banneton 😃

They work for me - fold bag and slid the gripstix thingie between the fold - think of a "U' and pokie thing goes between the arms of the U - easier to do than explain - there must be a video

I noticed this afternoon that Cooks Illustrated gave their award to the APO.
In July of 2021 they panned it as a "Smart Oven" saying it was "Not Recommended" (full review is paywalled)
Flash forward to Jan 2023, it is now "The Best Countertop Steam Oven" and as the "Winner" and "Top Pick" was "Recommended" (again, full review is paywalled)
I guess the passage of time has modified their results
One point, it seems they still can't get the Bluetooth connection working - unless I'm mistaken the APO is WIFI not Bluetooth, at least mine is WIFI!

Mine was shipped out of Toronto, assuming they are still maintaining that hub, it shouldn't take long (this was some time ago though)

Anova Precision Oven: Features, Accessories, Troubleshooting, and "Should I Buy One?"
in Kitchen Consumer
Posted
Further to my earlier post about updating the app, now it's the firmware's time
Mandatory oven firmware update!
*Anova is updating our cloud to improve our oven performance. This requires a mandatory firmware update from all Anova Precision™ Oven owners — but first, your app needs to be updated to version 1.1.0 or higher.
*Please note that this is a mandatory firmware update. Past Aug 15, 2023, you will not be able to remotely monitor or control your oven if you have not installed this update.
How will this change my interactions with the Anova Precision™ Oven App?
*Communication between the app and oven will be faster than our current infrastructure allows. This means changes to cook settings made on the app will appear nearly instantaneously on the oven, and vice versa.
