    PA has state stores. Only recently could you buy beer and wine at a grocery store.

    It feels as if every pub and grill these days has switched to smash burgers, even though a lot of those places don't actually smash their patties.

    I've got like 200 dvds/blu rays that I can't bring myself to get rid of. When I worked at Game Stop back in the day and they decided to pull the plug on them, my store had a sale buy 2 get 4 free. With the power up discount plus my store discount I could get 6 dvd's for like $6. Bought so many it was insane lol

    I just learned about chicken salt from Australia and now I'm interested to douse some fries in it. Basically a seasoning blend with chicken bouillon powder hence the name chicken salt. Sounds great though...

    After all the Five Guys talk in here I ended up making a copycat Five Guys burger for dinner last night. Excuse the chips instead of 15 pounds of fries

    I rarely eat fast food anymore if I do it's usually Taco Bell and for some reason I still have an affinity for McDonald's so I get that too but not much else

    Five guys Cajun fries >>> any shake shack side though. Shake shack burgers are the best fast casual in the country, imo.

    Some panuchos and a salbute from a Yucatecan spot I had recently here in Portland. Was able to go to Disneyland when visiting friends and family in CA and got this birria ramen. [ATTACH] Also from my CA trip. Whenever I visit my hometown, the only food place I get nostalgic for and HAVE to go to is this local pizza chain. It’s greasy but so good. [ATTACH]

    I'm planning to make chicken smash burgers tonight. I'm really looking forward to it. I've only made them once or twice before, but never with this much care. Potato bun, 2 thin patties, cheddar cheese, arugula, tomato, and my signature ranch. The ground chicken I found is 92% lean, so I'm hoping they don't dry out too much.

    So we ended up going back there today haha. But this time we also got some treats to share We got the biscoff milk cake (which was so good! Tasted like a big pancake), the biscoff cheesecake (also good, had a biscoff crust!) and the pistachio milk cake (which also ruled, but didn’t really taste like pistachio?). How great (and tempting) it is to live about a 15 minute drive from this place…

  20. MarkM liked waking season's post in the thread Food 2: Chew Harder.

    I used about 13 habaneros and 3 scotch bonnets, 11 cloves of garlic, 4 peaches (2 white, 2 yellow), half an onion, half a carrot, 3/4 tsp of salt, and a cup each of water and white vinegar. Roughly chopped everything, brought to a boil, and then simmered for about 15 minutes. Blended everything and strained a few times. I followed a recipe for the batch I made the other day and it was not good. Called for 4 tbs of salt and 2 tbs of brown sugar. It was way too salty and peaches are plenty sweet on their own without needing to add any sugar.

    Didnt realize having an opinion that others may disagree with qualified as having a “history of antagonizing”. Kinda funny that on the internet in the year 2025 this was even said.

    So this comment is fine. You're entitled to your opinion. This comment on the other hand is juvenile, condescending, and unnecessary. You're in your mid-40's now and still toxic as hell. You're literally just trying to make someone feel shitty for enjoying something. I started with absolutepunk.net in high school back around 2001-2002. I did the tech roundups for years, and I've been an annual supporter of chorus.fm since you put the program in place. I was truly a ride or die. Hell, I have a Christmas card from you somewhere in a box in my attic. All that being said, I'm 40 now, in a great place in life and happier than ever, and I want no part of this negativity. This isn't about mgk (I didn't say the shit was Shakespeare; I just find it fun). It's about disassociating myself with things that bring me down. We're at the age now where you truly understand how short life is. Time is precious. Anyway, I've enjoyed the past 20+ years on your sites and will look back on them with good memories. I wish you the best, and I hope you find your happiness. Take care, Jason.
