There’s no frosting on the cinnamon rolls. It’s good. I promise you it’s good. It isn’t gonna change your life but I swear it’s good. it’s better than the nonsense they do in Ohio with fuckin spaghetti.
I have put my waffle iron through more shit than it should reasonably be able to handle. I used to have parties with friends where we would get fucking plastered and try waffling everything.
The waffle all the things craze started shortly after, a cosmic coincidence if ever there was one.
Anyway here’s some reports.
First, we used a shallow style waffle maker. Mine was a cheaper Cuisinart but I think any would do.
Bad corn bread mix is elevated in the waffle maker but really fucking good corn bread is better prepared the traditional way. I used famous Dave’s as a nice middle ground cornbread batter and it made a fantastic base for chili.
As did cheap tube cinnamon rolls. Cinnamon rolls and chili are a staple where I’m from and trust me when I tell you that waffling them and serving chili on top absolutely elevates the dish.
Tater tots, covered in cheese, and cooked from frozen on the waffle iron are absolutely the best version of tater tots. This is the one thing we did every single time. You gotta abuse the poor iron closed but it’s worth it.
Bread is just toast in the waffle maker, a bad version of toast. Anything you see that says put something in bread and put it in the waffle maker has been disappointing.
Fried mac and cheese bites, similarly, are not improved by the waffle process.
Pierogi however, are absolutely wonderful but not necessarily improved enough to be worth the effort. Unless you’re alone and somehow only want like 4.
Lasagna was the last item my poor waffle iron waffled. The HR Geiger abomination that came out of that poor machine was absolutely fantastic. Alas my poor iron never came clean again. It was a fitting send off.
I used to have a buddy that would rubber band on weight watchers.
He’d do it for a while, lose an astounding amount of weight, stop, gain every pound back.
I have no idea if he’s still doing this but it was like a 2 year cycle. Spend a few months thinking about going back on, decide it was worth the money, get on, do great for 6 months and then get tired of it, or get a craving for something, and that would be the end of it.
Honestly the system would work if it were manageable long term but from what I’ve seen there’s just no preparation for getting off of it. You’ve gotta get to a point where you can handle gaining a few pounds every now and again, and then lose it again and do maintenance until the next event where you’re going to have something bad. WW seems to expect you to stick to their meal plan permanently and that is frankly too fucking restrictive to last.
But no one lost 50% of their own cells, so clearly if it’s alive and can be classified as a single organism. Is the gut micro biome an independent body of organisms, or is it just like any other organ of the human body, and thus would have been unaffected by the snap?
Either everyone lost almost exactly 50% of their gut biome, or, about half of all living organisms lost 100% of it, or, no one lost any part of it. Those are the only three possibilities.
The more interesting question is were viruses affected? Or did the magic stones not consider them life?
I was one of the very small number of children that bought that bullshit, that all drugs are bad and what have you, but even I thought signing that pledge was kinda fucked up. Like you were required to sign it, we didn’t have a choice.
Look, unless you’re renting it out, your house isn’t an investment. It grows in value and that’s nice, but you’ll spend more on maintenance and improvements than it will increase in value.
