Whenever WWI is brought up and how bad it was I like to think how poignant this moment is
This stuff is awesome. You don't know how good bread can be until you're walking back out of a dark alley with a loaf from this place in your hands.Bread is actually underrated. Nobody but me actually understands the depths of bread's benevolent goodness
I always judge an Italian restaurant by their bread. While I don't expect the same quality as in Italy.....if your bread has the consistency of a doughy cloud and produces zero crumbs ....your license and Italian card should be revoked!Bread is actually underrated.

It is such garbage. I love the ones where it is mixed with olives from all corners of the globe. Most of them are fake. My bike chain's oil is more pure...It's also downright ridiculous how good real, high quality olive oil from the Med is compared to the pig juice you get in stores here.

Good olive oil can be a tough find here without breaking the bank. Balsamics can be equally tough. I go to an Italian importer on 9th street in souf Philly for my Italian products. Place is called Claudios. DiBrunos is overrated and expensive...It's funny. I can pine for the meats, meat products, cheeses, and oils of the Old World. And think we have such trash here.
And yet I've talked with a few people from abroad who, after staying here, admire and miss our unlimited variety of shitty snack foods and condiments.
I accidentally (as opposed to deliberately) broke the carafe for my coffee maker so I'm reduced to drinking... tea, until Amazon comes to the rescue.
I have done this countless times lol. Thankfully Target is just a 5 minute drive awayI accidentally (as opposed to deliberately) broke the carafe for my coffee maker so I'm reduced to drinking... tea, until Amazon comes to the rescue.
I had to bring yellow mustard with me to France. Not for me, I hate the stuff. Nope, for my French in-laws.It's funny. I can pine for the meats, meat products, cheeses, and oils of the Old World. And think we have such trash here.

Amazon came through, new coffee maker arrived this afternoon so I only had to miss my morning coffee. I can live with that.I have done this countless times lol. Thankfully Target is just a 5 minute drive away

I'm a Keurig guy, because I hate the planet, but I have one on the kitchen and one in the Love Room, so I never have to go without.
I am too, but I love the planet - I use one of those reusable cups. You should try them. The generic ones can f*** up in the Keurigs, but they have one of their own that works:

How can you sleep at night knowing that you are destroying the sea ice that the polar bears need to survive. HOW?I'm a Keurig guy, because I hate the planet, but I have one on the kitchen and one in the Love Room, so I never have to go without.

Mustard as a seasoning for grilling a burger actually works well to keep it from being too dry. Learned it from a Mexican gf back in the day.Maybe? But ironically they consider it extremely exotic. You might know this already, but it's common in France to use a little dijon mustard as a condiment for grilled and roasted meats. So now you can imagine how said yellow mustard would have been utilized, because they generally don't put mustard on sandwiches, but rather butter or mayo.
So, yep, a dash of yellow mustard with their roast beef.

Love caramelized onions....even if my stomach sometimes can't handle it along with the grease.Or you could also do what I do: put a huge dollop of caramelized onions on it.
