    I need help finding a dried vegetable product.

    Hey everyone, I trust all of you are well. I really should make it more of a priority to hang here more often. Is there an iPhone app for this forum?? That would ROCK! I need a favor... A close friend of mine just called me and was asking if I ever heard of a product called Caputo's Soup...

    Omaha Steak Company...

    Can someone please post up a review? I've been given $90 in Omaha Steak gift cards for Christmas and I would like to hear from those of you who have used this company's products before I make a purchase. To be honest, I find their lack of meat grading a little weird. I can't find the words...

    Bad Restaurant Experiences....

    Do any of you have a friend who is IMPOSSIBLE to please when it comes to dining out? I have a few, but one in particular who would find something wrong with anything. It matters not. They could be in a prime Chicago steakhouse and be served a perfectly cooked NY Strip with an a la minute...

    Howya doin?

    Remember me? I'm willing to bet a few of you will say (or type) yeah. I upgraded my computer and got rid of AOL. When using IE, this site bookmarks as "Cooking recipes, tips, ideas and more." I musta did it the first day of setting up my new computer and kinda forgot about it. I've been...

    Sunday is my last day of being a short order cook! A few months ago, a job lead came my way from a family friend who is neighbors with a financial backer of this terrific new restaurant opening up in the Southern burbs of Chicago. Though it was quite a far drive for me, I used to drive by...

    Diet Coke w/ Lime

    Who has tried this? I've had two of them today already and I just realized it was what it was - Diet Coke w/ Lime. The can looks almost EXACTLY like regular Diet Coke. After I realized it kinda tasted differently, I took a look. I bought them by mistake and I know for certain I will be...

    Do you know why we clank glasses when we drink?

    You've seen and done it a million times. You've cracked open a few sodas. You've poured a few classes of wine. You've twisted off a few beer caps. You've passed those drinks out to your friends. Inevitably, you've clunked the bottles or glasses together. "Here's to ya!" "Down the hatch."...

    ....is a mere 6 days away. Here's the deal. Every Wednesday before Thanksgiving, my cousin Dean and his wife Holly open their hearts and home to all their friends and have a bash of all bashes. It's kind of been described as the celebration we friends have together because the following day...

    Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook

    Truly astounding. If ever I get to NY, I am gonna try to shake this man's hand. What a cool cookbook. I read Anthony's first book, "Kitchen Confidential," before I ever held a saute pan professionally. I read it while riding the train to cooking school and I always thought the majority of...

    Silicone Bakeware - Why can't I bake in these?

    :evil: I own two silicone 10" cake rounds (actually, they are 9 & 1/2"), and two silicone regular sized muffin cups pans. All are new, red, and are going to be given to my dogs as chew toys in the next few days. I'm not losing my hair, but I have been pulling it out recently. I ruined two...
