"Cinnamon Toast Crunch releases 'Cinnadust' seasoning blend to sprinkle on your ice cream"

Peaches and Aldi's: "Outbreak Investigation of Salmonella Enteritidis: Bagged Peaches (August 2020)"

Just a suggestion regarding safety, but you should move that away from the house/any structure. One major flame up and there goes the house. Just sayin'...

Sorry to ressurect such an ancient topic, but I just viewed this mini-documentary on YouTube. Now I am sooo hungry! @Kim Shook, have you ever had the box lunch from Sally Bell's? The URL for those who can't watch the embedded video: https://youtu.be/FVm0CaOxEQY

Regarding the Cole Slaw, our local grocery stores sell "Angel Hair"-sliced cabbage in their produce sections. Like the similarly named pasta, it's finely cut. I much prefer it over the regular slaw sliced cabbage they sell. Less chewy. Sounds like it would be perfect for your slaw. Thanks, David!

I was a little taken aback when I saw Jacques toss the corn cobs into the trash. I half-expected him to say to save the cobs for corn stock. Guess he needs to read eGullet more.

CBS Sunday Morning did a recent story on vanilla: "The flavorful story of vanilla" https://youtu.be/3di0eG1XFus The link for those who can't view the video.

Thanks everyone for the feedback and suggestions! @blue_dolphin my mom would sometimes use the country ribs in her oven-cooked sauerkraut if the price was low enough and she couldn't get a decent pork roast. Just delicious... @Dave the Cook Thanks for the discussion link. In that discussion, @Smithy mentions that country ribs don't have much fat. I have found they (mostly) have a strip of fat along one side. When I bake them in the oven, I stand them up on their side (sometimes adding crumpled foil balls between the strips to help keep them standing on their sides) so the fat strip hopefully bastes the meat as it renders during cooking. It's quite unctuous!

I think I know the answer to this but would like to her your opinions... I like the Country Style Ribs that our local grocery stores sell (not sure if that cut is national or just from California). They tend to be on sale quite often. The issue I have been having is that they tend to be tough to chew. My mom used to parboil country ribs in a pot of water with lemons, then finish them off on a grill slathered with BBQ sauce. I don't own a grill so that option is out. I bake them in the oven in a foil lined 13 x 9 pan at 350°F. I put a rub on them and cover the pan with foil for about 30 minutes, then remove the foil cover and put BBQ sauce on them and return them to the oven for another 30 to 45 minutes depending on the thickness of the ribs. But, like I said, they're quit chewy. I'd like to see if I can get them to be more tender. I think the answer is to cook them low and slow...perhaps a 250°F oven for 2 to 3 hours. Would that do the trick to make them more tender? Or is there a better method? A pressure cooker is not an option since I don't own one. Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

"Hershey’s Is Making Sugar Cookie-Flavored Kisses This Holiday Season" I am not a big fan of "white chocolate". But I think I would try these (okay, maybe try one and take the rest to work so someone else could eat them ). If anyone sees them in the stores, please post.

So Lays has introduced 4 new "Flavor Icons" (click): - Nashville Hot Chicken Flavor - Kettle Cooked New York Style Pizza Flavor - Carnitas Street Taco Flavor - Philly Cheesesteak Flavor I tried the Carnitas Street Taco Flavor. While it seems to be missing the meat, of course, I do get a big taste of cilantro and a hint of cumin. Kind of salty, too. The flavor is supposed to be based upon the Carnitas Tacos from the El Torito's restaurant chain (the El Torito's restaurant here closed years ago). Overall...meh. There might be a tiny kick of spiciness but it's nothing major. This made me miss the old Snyder of Hanover's Steak & Onion flavored potato chips which were so salty but soooo good. Anyone else try the new flavors?

From the USDA: "FSIS Issues Public Health Alert for Meat and Poultry Taquitos and Chimichangas Containing FDA-Regulated Diced Green Chilies That Have Been Recalled Due to Possible Foreign Matter Contamination" The article posts the specific products recalled.

I've posted this previously around here somewhere, but sheet pan roasting carrots with cumin gave off the most delicious aroma while they roasted. And yet when I had them with my supper, the cumin was barely there. Odd, to say the least. Yes, thumbs up on sheet pan roasted carrots.

Just a thought...if it's the flavor of celery you miss and not necessarily the crunch, you can always use celery leaves and not the stalk.
