    That's basically a pizza with a side of pigs-in-a-blanket attached to it.

    I approve.

    Finally got around to stopping by the Korean food truck, which is the only Korean food in town now that it exists, and is conveniently next to the student radio station I do a weekly show at.

    $6 for a healthy amount of BBQ pork, salad, kimchi, and a fried egg on top of a heap of rice? Fuck. Yes.

    I feel like I'm going to this place at least once a week when I get back.

    Guarantee you they get frozen dough with it already set up like that so the ground-level mooks in the kitchen don't have to dick about rolling up wieners

    "Dicking about rolling up wieners" is the subtitle to my autobiography.

    It could be snappier, I admit.

    No, no, I think it rolls off the tongue fairly well.

    In other news I hate the "Korean"-Mexican fusion food truck here.

    I'm basically required to buy them when this happens. They are delicious.

    Is cake bad food?

    I'll be making one tonight for a bake sale tomorrow and I wanna post pics.

    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.....



    One of the layers of my cake stuck to the pan and now I have a single layer cake and a bunch of crumbs.

    Best way I can think of salvaging this is mixing the crumbs and making a lumpy frosting (so it's still technically 2-layers).

    I also think this was the same pan that almost fucked over my last cake. Just a teeny-tiny bit got stuck but that was still salvageable, and it had to be ran through the dishwasher twice...

    I loved mixing the buttermilk ranch and honey mustard versions together. Granted, one is pretzel bits and the other is pieces, but its still damn tasty.

    You'd think it'd at least taste like caffeine free pepsi, which is pretty decent.

    Caffeine free pepsi was my favorite kind as a kid. I always though it tasted a little different.

    Do they even still make caffeine free pepsi anymore?

    Caffeine is bitter, I dunno if there enough in soda to matter, so its possible.

    Not authentic enough?

    The Korean-Mexican I got in Baltimore a couple summers back was the best burrito I've had in my life, so it probably just comes down to who's actually doing it right and who's just chasing the trend

    Helps to be in an area with a healthy Korean population, I suppose - growing up in the DC area has spoiled me on Korean

    Get a cookie scoop, roll those up, put a stick in and coat in chocolate. *boom* totally on purpose cake pops.

    As far as I can tell there's no actual kimchi in them.

    I have had good kimchi fries and they are awesome.

    My wife got some funnel cake fries from a food truck the other day. I'm pretty sure it should be simple enough to figure out how to make them at home so I've promised her I'd do just that.

    I don't know about Seattle, but I've found some at my local Albertson's and HEB before. It came in a box and I just grilled them right up.

    Quail is fucking delicious.

    Wait, why the hell is Pepsi making crystal Pepsi when it should be making a run of those crazy bottles from Back to the Future II. This is the year to do that you guys.

    Are you sure you didn't accidentally get a side of disappointment put on instead? But yeah that does seem a bit bullshit.

    Have you found anyplace to get Korean food around here? I know Austin does have a bit of a Korean population as I've gotten lost in a neighborhood before after getting off the wrong bus stop and my sense of direction completely failing me.

    The only way I'm going to eat bugs is if they're processed beyond all recognition.

    Like how I'll eat whole lobster only if there's not the option to have a lobster roll.

    I don't claim to be rational, just give me my highly-processed bug bar with added flavour and let me be in whatever post-apocalyptic / cyberpunk world we've ended up in.

    Nando's is rad

    But is it cheeky?

    Of course it was totes cheeky.

    They were having mad bantz down nandos with the lads.

    I do actually like Nandos. It's a good (not great) meal for the price.

    Though people who say "NANDOS IS THE BEST THING EVER"......I would recommend they try more places.

    I think Nando's is pretty expensive and only ok. Oporto's is better value but maybe that's just an Australian chain?

    Caffeine is bitter, I dunno if there enough in soda to matter, so its possible.

    There is. I'm just... completely guessing here pretty much, but since many colas originated as patent medicines featuring coca leaf extract*, they probably had sugar added to them to make them taste less bitter. So removing the caffeine tends to make them sweeter.

    *: Fun fact: Coca-Cola is the only company legally able to imported to import coca leaves into the United States, since coca leaves are the raw precursors to cocaine. Any traces of cocaine are removed during processing.
