We now have snack chip-flavored snack chips (for those that may not know, Funyuns are an onion ring-flavored snack chip):

That’s it. Humans can progress no further. We’ve reached the pinnacle of existence. Everything we’ve achieved so far has led to this moment.

Grocery today. Loaded up on meat as Winn Dixie had pork shoulder blade steaks on BOGO, ham steaks on BOGO, and beef shoulder roast for $5 per pound.

Craig has a dish he makes where he cooks pork chops in with scalloped potatoes and he asked for it to be on the menu so he's in charge of that, other than if he wants the potatoes mandolined. He's not allowed to use it after a couple of bad cuts.

I've been wanting ham. Craig doesn't like whole hams or ham steaks, though he'll eat deli ham. I think it's because his mother used to serve them those canned hams. Craig is just going to have to suck it up and eat ham steak.

Didn't understand a word. But it all sounds dire.
How can we possibly have a chip-flavoured chip, or a ring-flavoured snack chip?????

Didn't understand a word. But it all sounds dire.

I’ll restate it in British-English:

Imagine walking into a Tesco and finding Quaver-flavored Walkers crisps.

Quaver-flavored

That's a non sequitur. A quaver is a musical note, half the length of a crotchet.

That’s pretty cool. They know who butters their bread!

TastyReuben don't they now?!
I've always wonder how much of Hormel's profit comes the 50th State?

"Now, despite Spam’s worldwide fame (Hormel estimates 12.8 cans of Spam products are consumed every second), it’s Hawaii that seems to adore it the most. Almost seven million cans of Spam are eaten in Hawaii every year, more than in any other state, according to Hormel."

I can't put into words how happy I am to have found these:

Those of you who know me longer know that I lament the Dutch stores never selling chocolate with fruit fillings, but it turns out the Polish store does!
It has been 12 years since I had these last in the UK

Single Kroger trip:

Toasty crackers are for MrsT.

This was like an old-school Saturday running around for me - I went to the big Kroger I used to visit for my weekly shops, no other grocery store, then I popped into my favorite pizza joint and had a small pizza and a local beer, then back home.

If you like Sauvignon Blanc, see if you can find some from New Zealand. I found some for my brother one day and it was really, really divine.

 

[kaneohegirlinaz]

karadekoolaid my new favorite wine ...

Our local Kroger's aka Fry's had this on sale for 25% off, I stocked up (a case )

I did a haul from Walmart and Dollar Tree

As I looked at these photos, I realized that DH is not going to want to eat those Real Good Foods Co stuffed Chickens ... they have Artichokes in them, but then maybe if I don't say anything, he may not figure that out
DH opened the Tastykakes today and said that they are stall AND half the size that we're use to dang it all!
The Biscoff cookies are a trial to see if I could use them for my Cannoli Ice Cream Cake "crust" - YUP!
The ground Cinnamon is on the FDA recall list
If you can find these Lemon Dipped Cookies at your local Wally-World, try them!!
Dh is to eat as much "green" as he can handle ...
And then Dollar Tree dups for $1.25, great deals.

That’s some regional shopping there…Tastykakes from Pennsylvania, Skyline from Cincy, pimento cheese is a Southern specialty…a culinary roadtrip!
