They've been stocking these in the vending machine at work. I really like them as a change of pace chip.

Spaghetti sauce derail... I have found my perfect sauce. It is Prego meat or classic, but it is NOT the one in the glass jars or plastic jugs you see at most stores. It is only the ones that come in tin cans. It is definitely a different sauce because normal prego is chunky and the cans are totally smooth which I like (add meat though of course). I make special trips to the dollar store that carries it and load up, because sometimes it I shit you not it is sold out. There must be one other person in town who knows about this secret and buys it out too. Avoid the garlic and herb style though, something very off about it.

The "no difference" between ice cream brands and spaghetti sauce brands triggers me. Massive fucking difference. But ice cream is my jam. If I can't taste the sticks of butter and whole fat cream per bite I don't wanna fuck with it. As for spaghetti sauce, the consistency varies greatly between your main brands. But I'm like lurkingdirk and I make my own these days.

Going to have to agree here massive difference in spaghetti sauce brands. Ragu sucks shit vs Prego. As far as ice cream brand some of them are so fucking shitty now they can't even be called ice cream. As an example Breyers is so fucking shitty these American Inventors can't even label their shit ice cream anymore. I remember when Breyers was actually decent ice cream too.
Also Ice Cream is another reason Publix is the best grocery store on the planet. They make awesome fucking subs, make great ice cream, they are clean, don't fag it up with coupon card bullshit. I feel sorry for you guys without them.

Premade sauce is for chumps, making from "scratch" is really easy. But fuck starting with raw tomatoes, that goes too far.
Can of crushed tomatoes, can of tomato paste, 1 onion (diced), 4 cloves garlic (diced), 3/4lb of ground beef. Salt, Oregano, Black Pepper, Crushed Red Pepper, Paprika, Basil at the finish.
Brown your beef with half the garlic and some salt, once browned add onion and remaining garlic, once onions go clear, add crushed and paste, at spices to taste. Simmer for like 15 minutes. Bam!
Heartburn trick, add a quarter tsp baking soda alongside crushed tomatoes BEFORE paste. It won't change the sauce's taste at all but it cuts the acidity and saves me from heartburn post red-sauce. If you add it after the paste the sauce is too thick and it will foam up and take far longer to dissipate.

I can eat the garbage'iest of foods, drink until my IQ is single digits and be fine. But eat a dinner with lots of red sauce and I'll be poppin TUMS like an opioid addict on oxy.
Also weirdly enough I have no issue with spicy foods and/or alchol mixed with OJ, Lime juice, other acids, it's specifically tomato sauce that does me in.

i developed a phobia about crunchy peanut butter as a kid. back then they used glass jars and i once ate crunchy peanut butter out of one that had a crack in it. i didnt eat actual glass, but when i saw the crack in the jar and was crunchin down on the peanut butter i freaked out. even though they only use plastic jars now, i cant eat anything but the smooth/creamy kind.
The more you know.

But this is Haagen-Dazs we're talking about. It can't be bad!

If Haagen-Dazs can somehow make vanilla ice cream taste incredible, they really are on a different level of quality.After your opinions on RDR2, I'm not sure I can trust anything you ever say again.
