Got this Bento system for my wife
Amazon.com: Zojirushi SL-NCE09 Ms. Bento Stainless-Steel Vacuum Lunch Jar: Lunch Box: Kitchen Dining
Really starting to meal prep a bit differently, so far she likes it.

Hah! I just started watching that last night while laying in bed. That lady was rough looking, no doubt. Show seems pretty cool, though. I only watched about 40 min of the first episode so far.

Caught the last half of an episode("Fire"?) because my wife was watching it. Show seems to rely a lot on "feels" without backing any of it up. Michael Pollan is involved, so that shouldn't be surprising at all. Sure, demonize animal farming, I'll certainly agree how they treat the animals is deplorable. But don't plead with the viewer to go back to humane farming while conveniently ignoring that the current population is not sustainable under those requirements.
The irony was so thick when they had Paul Rudd's distant cousin butchering that old pig. He was going on about how going to your local butcher, you could do so much more with your money rather than going to fast food joints. He's right, but just as he's ending his spiel, you could see pork tenderloin for sale at $13/lb.
Roast a whole pig, ye city dweller, it'll be great! And also likely impossible in your 5th story tiny apartment.

So someone gave me a cast iron sandwich iron thing. No idea how to use it best. Should I heat it on a burner before putting it on the sandwich I'm cooking? In the oven? On my wife's burning hot ass?

When i was a teen working at Mcd's, sometimes I'd pull the evening shift, and by then it simmers down. This 30something girl was nasty. (of course, I'm way too young at the time to understand stuff) She'd have scabs and blisters on her mouth, i have no idea wtf they were. We were part of the grill area, a lot of times I'd have the manager come over and say
"Lanx, this customer wantsYOUto make his big mac", at least 2/3x a night, and only if this girl was working too.
Yup, even tho we were in the back making food, some customers probably saw her scabby self and say "nuhh, uh"

Wasn't familiar with him before, but after watching the first three eps (Abbo lady was indeed a bit of "whoa") I'd be on board with that. He's very much in the same grain as that Jamie Oliver guy, in my opinion. But at least the Oliver guy is being misleading from a place of relative knowledge, while the Pollan guy is attempting to display it from a state of implied ignorance.

I still haven't had time to make this but I got my sister in law to make it today. It takes half a day to make which is a downside, but I'll be damned if this isn't the best lasagna I have ever eaten.

I'm now halfway through the 3rd episode and it's like the first half of the episodes are pretty interesting and then it gets really preachy and loses me. It's too bad, as the show has really nice production value. I just wanted it to be more about food and cooking and less about the problems of the planet. I have no previous experience with Michael Pollan.

Talking about cooked? I just watched the first episode and I can swear some of that footage is straight up stolen. I feel like I've seen it before.

Here's another. Just a plain chocolate and peanut butter swirl in the middle.
