“If that‘s all a little opaque to you, you can always subscribe to the second theory, in which the cofounder of Costco threatens to kill his own CEO over hot dog prices.
[…]
“ “I came to Jim once and I said, ‘Jim, we can‘t sell this hot dog for a buck fifty. We are losing our rear ends,‘” he said. Sinegal, a billionaire, replied: ‘If you raise the effing hot dog, I will kill you. Figure it out.‘”

Quick chapters. Fairly interesting. Oddly, not as cozy as I‘d anticipated.

Planck suggests eating real, whole foods, including pasture-raised beef and chicken, plus butter, cheese, and eggs from those animals. She also suggests that raw milk is as safe as pasteurized milk if it comes from a reputable supplier.

I use butter from grass-fed cows and imported from Ireland (imagine the price going forward with the crazy new tariffs).

She does a huge data/info dump throughout. Often, my eyes glazed over. 😵‍💫🙄 Overall A-.

TheBookHippie I love that butter too! 5d

Anyone who remotely cares about how food is sourced, grown, or made should read this book.

A new way to eat BLTs…taco style. Loving this recipe! Via NYT Cooking. I wanted avocado on the side. I also sprinkled on some garlic because I‘m a garlic freak!

Gin‘s proverbial clarity, like a prism of clear glass, refracts a rainbow of historical color.

Not a recipe from the tagged book, but I went to the farmers market today, and it‘s supposed to get cold again this week, so I made soup. Now I don‘t have to think about dinner.

Booksblanketsandahotbeverage Yum! I love soup 1w

Lcsmcat @Booksblanketsandahotbeverage Soup is the only reason to be happy that it‘s getting cold again. 😂 1w
Lcsmcat @Susanita @dabbe Thanks! Except for the white beans it‘s all from our local farmers market (last year‘s tomatoes from the freezer, everything else fresh.) 1w
Leftcoastzen Looks like great soup! 1w
tpixie Lovely! Is these a recipe? Or did you just work magic? 1w
Lcsmcat @tpixie It‘s a bit of both. I looked at a couple of”beans and greens” soup recipes and then modified it to use what I had on hand that needed to be used up. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1w
tpixie @Lcsmcat a real chef! 1w
Lcsmcat @tpixie I lay no claim to that! But shopping the way I do , mostly at farmers markets, has forced me to be a more creative cook, because I start with the ingredients and go from there. 1w
tpixie @Lcsmcat ok! Creative cook! 🧡🧡🧡 Making life healthy and fun! (edited) 1w

The Man Who Ate Everything | Jeffrey Steingarten

I wanted to start into something culinary, when I get the free time over the coming summer, and figured reading an anthology of food essays by Vogue food writer and critic Jeffrey Steingarten would be the best start. The panoply of food he discusses (paired with his tried and true recipes) is mind-boggling and drool-inducing: from sourdough starter and Sicilian granita, to Tunisian bkaila and a good apple pie (hint: never use cinnamon).
