    In-N-Out Burger

    "In-N-Out Burger Debuts in Colorado, Sparks 14 Hour Wait Times" Not much of an article except for the tiny photos of the lines of cars. The mania for a hamburger with history goes on...

  6. "Nigella Lawson butters her toast twice, and Britain is really angry about it" The Brits are in an uproar, supposedly, over this gilding of the toasted lily. As if the excess of butter is abhorrent all of a sudden.
  7. "FSIS Issues Public Health Alert for Chicken and Pork Tamales Containing FDA-Regulated Diced Tomatoes in Puree That Have Been Recalled Due to Possible Foreign Matter Contamination" Specific products impacted all have "Tucson" in the name and are listed in the article.
  8. Regarding the video, whoever edited it left out the money shot...slicing the baguette open to reveal the crumb. Or slathering a slice with some nice French butter or brie.

  18. Here's the manual for your toaster found through Google: (click) This sounds like your issue but I don't understand what it's saying. I hope you're able to find a solution.
  19. Currently snacking on Blue Diamond Gourmet Almonds: Garlic, Herb and Olive Oil (click). They're an impulse item I bought at Costco this past weekend. I was prepared to hate them....but they're really good. And the more I snack on them, the more I want to continue to eat them The herb blend reminds me of the herb crust my family's yearly Christmas Prime Rib roast. I was surprised the almonds were skinless. If only I had noticed the picture of the almonds on the front of the bag. While the garlic flavor is subdued, I believe the herb in the forefront is Thyme. I'm not a fan of Rosemary which is what I figured they would taste of, but was happy to find I was wrong. Two thumbs up for these almonds!
  20. Two finds...one by an author familiar to many eG'ers: James Beard Award winner John T.

  23. Thank you for that. I learned something new today! edited to add: It looks like the measurements in the Williams-Sonoma cookbook are in both Imperial and Metric.
  24. Two found this afternoon...one is kind of "Sandra Lee-ish"... "Williams-Sonoma Cooking at Home: More Than 1,000 Classic and Modern Recipes for Every Meal of the Day" Kindle Edition $2.99US (eG-friendly Amazon.com link) The "Look Inside" feature is useless...the pages shown are blank.

  25. Oddly, I couldn't find a corporate web site for the maker of these... Open Nature Pita Chips with Sea Salt I think they are much better than Stacey's Pita Chips. These chips are quite sturdy and don't break if you're using them to eat a rather stiff hummus. Plus, they have a wee bit of fiber, as well. Win-Win.
