His standard for being labeled a Nazi is one Hitler fails prior to 1939. They might as well have a sign with bold print proclaiming, “I’m not to be taken seriously.”

One of my personal favorites is seeing salt advertised as being non-GMO.

My wife and I pick a country each year and plan our Christmas Eve dinner to make of food from that country. This year we picked The Gambia so it is going to be domoda (peanut stew) and thiakry (millet couscous pudding).

I love winter. Cold, dark, and snowy are my jam. To be fair this may be an ingrained coping mechanism from growing up in Alaska.

One of my stranger experiences as a cashier was watching someone waiting to be checked out change their mind and start trying to abandon some ground beef among the candy bars at the checkout. Apparently handing it over to me didn’t occur to them. At least when I pointedly offered, “If you don’t want that I’ll take it.” they handed it over.

Thankfully no kids in the mix. I can imagine how that complicates things.

Oh, I agree. If I use a recipe regularly I’ll often convert it or if I’m creating one from scratch I’ll usually just have everything by weight from get go.

P.S. Nothing makes me annoyed at a recipe faster than seeing something like 2.5 cups of chopped broccoli.

You’re welcome. A nice resource for a bunch of other ingredients for baking is this one from King Arthur Flour.

1 tablespoon of butter is ~14 g. For a more complete conversion (with respect to butter): 1 stick = 0.5 cup = 8 tablespoons = 24 teaspoons = 113 g.

A cup in US Customary is 237 ml (often rounded to 240 ml). Americans don’t exist in a world where they have to play “is this cup US Customary or different measure also calling itself a cup measure?” as all their measuring cups are going to be in US Customary. Butter usually comes in quarter pound sticks with teaspoon (4.9 ml) and tablespoon (14.8 ml) measures printed on the wrapper so you can just cut a hunk of the appropriate volume from the stick and if you were using a measuring spoon to measure butter you’d use a level measure to create consistency and not just let it heap up.

Note: I prefer weighing ingredients and in metric at that. I’m just answering your questions.

Meijer and Walmart store brands of cheap ass white bread are 22 slices, Kroger is 21, and for a name brand example Sunbeam is 22. Nicer bread like Pepperidge Farm or Brownberry/Oroweat tends to be in the range of 16 slices per loaf (baring the thin sliced stuff) though.

Indeed. I can grab a loaf of cheap white bread from my local grocery store for under $2 which is cut into 22 slices.

I’m using Liftoff but you can do it with the website too. The option shows up on the sidebar of the sub on Lemmy and on the drop down menu on Kbin (the circle with the slash).

I’ve started blocking shit posting subs. Nothing against a good shit post but it cleans up my feed without having to resort to subscribed.
