Halloween Peeps! (click) (eG-friendly Amazon.com link): Not a Peeps fan myself...just posting this for those who do enjoy the chewy sugar bombs.

Lordy...a co-worker brought in some "fun-size" Butterfinger candy bars (packaged for Halloween). The co-worker said they didn't taste right. I explained how the company that made Butterfingers had been sold and the new owner "improved" (ha!) the recipe. The co-worker left them in the break room where I am certain they will be eaten by the unsuspecting. Definitely not a Halloween "treat".

Stumbled upon this afternoon. Slightly more expensive... Melissa Clark's "In the Kitchen with A Good Appetite: 150 Recipes and Stories About the Food You Love" Kindle Edition $3.99US (eG-friendly Amazon.com link) Use the "Look Inside" feature and scroll all the way up to see the list of stories/recipes.

My brother grows his own chile peppers and also grinds a lot of the dried peppers into flakes which he hands out as gifts to family members every year. They tend to be quite spicy hot, hotter than the chile flakes you can buy in the stores. I gave him my food dehydrator years ago to dry his peppers, but now he doesn't bother with it. Once he reaps the peppers from the bushes, they go into a flat wicker basket in his kitchen to air dry. The wicker basket allows air to circulate around the peppers so they dry and don't get moldy. Plus he will stir the picked peppers up once in a while to promote even drying. Then when he goes to grind up the dried peppers into flakes using a dedicated electric coffee grinder, he does it outside (very important!) while wearing safety goggles so the fine pepper "mist" generated from the grinding is prevented from causing him to tear up. The first time he ground up peppers, he did it inside his house and it was as if someone had set off a tear gas bomb inside. Live and learn.

Found this afternoon... From the chef/owner of the famed Atlanta restaurant and Food Network competition winner Suzanne Vizethann's "Welcome to Buttermilk Kitchen" Kindle Edition $2.99US (eG-friendly Amazon.com link) Use the "Look Inside" feature to see the list of recipes.

Some new (and old) offerings in the new month...

M.F.K. Fisher's "Here Let Us Feast: A Book of Banquets" Kindle Edition $1.99US (eG-friendly Amazon.com link) These two cookbooks have been posted before: Grace Young's "Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge: The Ultimate Guide to Mastery, with Authentic Recipes and Stories" Kindle Edition $1.99US (eG-friendly Amazon.com link) Use the "Look Inside" feature to see the list of recipes.

I stumbled across food videos by Tasty. They output a no-nonsense video, speed the video up to compress time (and get through the boring parts) and provide the entire recipe with a link in the description below the video. I usually look at the running time for a video and if it takes 20 minutes, I usually pass it by since I don't have a lot of time for viewing. The Tasty videos are brief in comparison and show the recipe/cooking process in very little time. Works for me. Here's a link to their YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJFp8uSYCjXOMnkUyb3CQ3Q

Kim! I am so sorry they turned out to be so...fake tasting. You would think by now with all of the different limited editions of Oreos that they've put out that "fake" won't cut it. Plus, it lessens the brand's reputation in the long run so you think they would know better. But thanks for taking one for the team!

Sorry for the double post but I found two more... The first cookbook below was posted a few years back. The second (by the same author) is a new find...

Wait a second...I am counting more than six French fries in your servings there. Does @Shelby know about this? Thank you all for your ongoing cooking trials with your respective Air Fryers. It is immensely helpful to see what is working and what needs more adjustments.

A rose by any other name... "Kimchi's new Chinese name has become the epicenter of a cultural war ... again"

Yes. Walmart has had the Candy Corn/Marshmallow Pumpkins "Autumn Mix" on sale the past few weeks. The Halloween candy likely isn't far behind.

"Oreo’s New Apple Cider Donut Cookies Just Hit Stores To Fast Forward Us To Fall" If anyone sees them in their store, please take one for the team, try them and please report back.

You can also ask Presto themselves (click). My mom had a Presto pressure cooker she received as a wedding present over 60 years ago. She needed a new rubber seal and contacted Presto. She said she was amazed they had the seals in stock. It's worth asking...

Hamburger and Hot Dog buns this time... "Voluntary Recall of Hostess® Hamburger Buns & Hot Dog Buns Due to Possible Health Risks" Batch numbers and dates are listed in the original linked-to article.

Sold at Whole Foods, Meijer and Food Lion and other supermarkets... "Avanti Frozen Foods Expands Recall of Frozen Cooked Shrimp Because of Possible Health Risk" Sold under different brand names, the recall article has a long list of impacted products.
