Do food writing fads annoy you?

The one I find annoying is when they say that food melts in your mouth. I know that has been around forever but unless its Ice Cream or chocolate, why would it melt in your mouth? Or like cuts like butter, but excuse me, have you ever taken a stick of butter out of the freezer and tried to cut it? it has a very short time frame when you can actually cut it without it falling apart. OK, I said my peace for now. :)

Question of the Day: Brownies -- fudgy or cakey? Nuts or no?

Trader Joe's. What are your favorites from this store?

Trader Joes, they have the best nut selection there ever, all kinds of mixes with dried fruit, raw, roasted, salted, unsalted nuts of every kind there. Reminds me that I am almost out.

They also have many things under their own name that are most times better than what they are imitating. :)

Roadfood Roundup: Illinois

When you walk past Garrett's you are drawn in like a magnetic force. The smell is so delightful that you don't mind waiting in line at all. All of their popcorn is wonderful. The difference is that you can eat this popcorn tomorrow and it still tastes wonderful.

Question of the Day: How do you store your butter? In the fridge, out on the counter?

I keep mine in either the refrigerator or the freezer. I am always afraid it will spoil on the counter. If you have ever been the victim of food poisoning you never put anything on the counter that is perishable. Probably is perfectly safe, just not something I would consider.

Do you like 'chunks' in your ice cream?

I like some weird combinations in my ice cream. I love mint pieces and chocolate chips, not fond of nuts, but I love apple pie, or brownies or anything you would normally put over ice cream, I love to freeze it together and have it frozen. Strawberries, blueberries and baked apples are good in ice cream too, you should really try it. Some time when you have a hot brownie with ice cream on it and you cannot finish it (I know, doesn't sound possible) put the rest of it, in the freezer all smashed together and have it later. It is yummier than you would think. I am not really sure if they are weird combinations but I like them.
