of severe drought, some Texans from Arlington were laying fiber-optic cable for TV reception in front of my house. We got into a chili discussion. They told me that they couldn’t find any decent chili in our area, and they...

I am convinced the chicken would have tasted even better if I ate it out of a box. Am I wrong? sounds like the "Fiber None" commercial... you have to eat the box to get the fiber... hehe

I've been thinking about this issue because the time of year where we are endlessly assaulted with gargantuan celebratory meals is almost upon us. If you have a big meal coming up that evening, conventional wisdom would dictate...

Thanks for the ideas.. they both sound amazing & I’m definitely going to try them soon. I've never had bok choy, so I’m excited to try it out. I ended up making a spicy asian coleslaw that my co-worker recommended. It...

No, they’re not the same. Oats that are like “flakes” are rolled, which is additional processing. Steel cut oats look like tiny little pellets almost. They still have the hull which means additional fiber, which...

This product is not even remotely similar to saffron. I have bought it, used it and found it to have no flavor, just color (actually, worse than just color, the fibers have a chewy texture that does not go away after cooking)....

Your frozen mango drink sounds great. I've made a number of frozen drinks using fresh or thawed mangos in the blender, and the only problem is that the long fibers of the mango fruit tend to separate out and clump together in an...

i know this isn’t much help, but i've seen voskos at pretty much all the whole foods locations in the greater los angeles area. in fact, i just saw it in santa monica about 20 minutes ago. ask your local whole foods to order...

“Charlie's taken care of the check.” The 6 course dinner I just had at Chaz was on the house. At that point, the least I could do was to leave a $40 tip. I've been a regular at Chaz over the year and a half since...

Guess you could... as with everything depends on freshness off fish. After all, much of the top sushi in Japan comes off of frozen tuna, although they tend to freeze the things as soon as they stop wriggling. Similarly i seem to...

My wife is an avid baker whose birthday is soon approaching. She has never expressed much interest in Silpat, but I just noted in Leslie Brenner’s “The Fourth Star,” (BTW this is a great read about...

I need some assistance from folks who've been to more than 1 steak house, and recently. I was recently in one, and the knife on the table intended to cut the steak was serrated. This struck me as entirely the wrong kind of knife...

don’t much care for. But by the time I've daydreamed my little woodlands at home scenario the bowl has been et and I am happily full and dare I say it again, fiber-y.

I've had mixed emotions about the place since it opened. Went a few times and left less than impressed. Not being a beer drinker, I felt the selection produce and specialty foods were not desirable enough to get me to drive...

I've had it and I love it! The chicken tenders taste just like chicken that is a little dry, but I assume any diced frozen chicken would be dry. The ground beef version tastes more like ground turkey or ground veal. Both are much...
