For me the only real tomato soup is the tomatoey broth from a pot of sweet & sour stuffed cabbage... sweet is some raisins, sour is the juice of one lemon, secret ingredient is a small can of V8. I've never tasted any canned tomato soup even worth doctoring. |

As Charlotte is dieting to lose just a little for the Navy, we got indunated by well meaning but clueless people on Keto Diets. It's the new mellenial thing. The idea is you can eat 3,000 calories a day (ok, exagurating) but if none are carbs you ose weight. Sorry, it's not that easy. If you take in 3,000 calories a day and burn off only 2,000 then you will gain weight. If you take in 2,000 a day and burn off 3,000 a day, you will lose weight. 'Keto diets' work by reducing your total calories just like any other once you work the math out. They mostly remove the calories from carbs and leave the rest the same. |

Do you think food is any different? yes, by a long ways. most people eat a lot more over-processed foods than they used to. his point is well supported by reading labels in the pasta sauce aisle in a normal grocery store. it's not just pasta sauce, but almost every item inside the aisles (around the edges you find dairy, meats, fruits and veggies). songbird |

HFCS is cheap so they use that over cane sugar. With ice cream and some soda, cane sugar is superior because of the flavor. Sugars are often added to make things taste sweeter and sell more product. It just does not belong in some places in any form. Many food processors are truly evil with ingredients not needed except to enhance profit. |

We don't buy many processed or prepared foods. We tend to cook from scratch with fresh or frozen foods and some canned goods. I had tried some prepared pasta sauces and was never impressed. A couple minutes of chopping and sauteeing and then adding a jar of passata is usually better than anything commercially prepared and sold in a jar or can. A while ago I was introduced to the organic marinara sauce at Costco. I usually have some on hand and sometimes wonder if that little bit of work I go to is worth it. > > it's not just pasta sauce, but almost every item > inside the aisles (around the edges you find dairy, > meats, fruits and veggies). > > There are entire aisles of grocery stores I rarely even walk down except as a short cut. For instance, most of the grocery stores around here have a frozen foods section with pizzas, lasagna, meatballs and other various Italian entrees, chicken nuggets, fish sticks, waffles etc. Every once in a while I have to make a point of checking them out just so I know what is available. |

You get needled quite a bit for posting ingredients, but, it shows why we should do real cooking unless you want to join rec.junkfood.chemicals. Today I'm making dinner for six and there won't be any chemicals. Beef, sweet potatoes, green beans. Butter, salt, pepper, garlic. Wine, iced tea, lemon. Sure, I eat junk at times, but very limited. |

Our menu for the night is pretty well set. We are doing a prime rib of beef, garlic mashed potatoes, beans, squash, gravy and Yorkshire pudding. There will be some horse radish. Dessert is chocolate eclairs. I made the choux baking yesterday and my wife has iced the tops and will fill with whipped cream shortly. She will also be serving some of my leftover Christmas fruit cake. We plan to have some wine with it. Other than the wine and the horseradish, we will be preparing everything ourselves. Ooops... I forgot the fresh rolls that we picked up at the bakery this morning. |

Do you think food is any different? Yes, food has greatly deteriorated, along with taste expectations... most people nowadays think shit tastes wonderful, their taste buds have migrated to their rectum... eat enough fast food you too will contract chronic TIAD. Restaurant food was better 20 years ago... was much better 60 years ago.... even your favorite Golden Arches burger was far better quality way back when it cost 15¢. I can still remember when house-made tube steak from a neighborhood German butcher shop was better quality than what today's most expensive steak houses serve. There will always be those who willingly drop a C-note on a crappy steak dinner and rave about it no end... The Emperor's New Clothes is timeless. Today people have grown accustomed to air travel on a measly bag of peanuts. I remember flying with a voluptuous stewardess bringing me a scrumptious meal... I don't fly anymore, I don't want some faggot bringing me peanuts. Truth is when you bought a computer 20 years ago it ran for twenty years. Today computers have lots more technology but you're lucky if they last 2 years. I knew right away that computer longiviety was going downhill fast when their steel cabinets and chasssis became plastic. I remember flying TWA, their Tourest Class was more posh than today's First Class, and air travel meals were superb |

And I'll forgive them the cockroaches if they and their excrements don't end up in the food. But because they're so focused on cheap, their meat's the worst industry meat, their vegetables are the cheapest probably GM vegetables, their fish is dank basement grown basa and their prawns are chicken manure fed from Asia. I'd rather pay a bit more. |

What I took out of the freezer was not bean soup at all but beef stew. Grrr... So I am cooking some small red beans. I cooked rice yesterday. Will make a salad with bacon in it. People can pick and choose what they eat. Pot roast tomorrow. |

Not a single one of food items will look the same; similar maybe, but not the same. The only folks, besides Orientals, that I see eating with chopsticks are the locals trying to impress other diners. Chopsticks do not make the food taste any better than using a fork nor does it make your dining experience any better. |
