Sounds like a lot of trouble when I got a McDonald's 3 minutes away from my apartment. :P

Pizza Rolls are amazing. I love the Supreme flavor. I try to limit myself to once a month or so because they're loaded in transfat, and I eat so darn many of them in one sitting.

I love pork bolognese on pappardelle. Pappardelle is super easy to make at home, since all you have to do is roll out the dough and cut it into thick strips. No pasta machine necessary (though it helps to get it thin enough).

You might be better off using crushed tomatoes. 10-15 minutes is an awful short time to cook whole tomatoes. Make sure whatever whole tomatoes you buy don't contain calcium chloride. Calcium chloride is in many diced tomato products. It prevents the tomato from breaking down as quickly.

I hope I get stuck in front of Big_Al some day, so that I can laugh in his face when he scoffs at me ordering a McRib with no pickles. To think that not putting a pickle on a sandwich is going to throw the entire McDonald's kitchen out of whack is a bit psychotic, lol!

Keep fighting the good fight Kenji. Love it!

I hate the oversauced gravy style enchiladas a lot of places try to pass off as "Tex-Mex". I like the more traditional Mexican versions better.

It's also worth pointing out that, contrary to popular belief, enchiladas are NOT Tex-Mex in origin.

I'm ashamed that Dr. Pepper went with such a dumb, sexist advertising campaign.

Popeye's is far and away my favorite fried chicken joint. Spicy dark with a side of jalapenos ... the red beans and rice are mind-blowing and the cajun fries rock my world. God, I'm salivating now.

I can't bring myself to try their chicken nuggets. Getting chicken nuggets at a fried chicken place is like ordering mac and cheese off the kids menu at a restaurant.

Texas State Fair or bust!

They just aren't that good... same reason we don't have pumpkin flavored milk shakes year 'round.

Pork chops tend to be very lean... that runs counter to the very first paragraph suggesting rich, fatty meat be cut with a nice vinaigrette instead of being doused in a rich sauce.

I suggest rewriting the introductory paragraph with something that actually matches the recipe.

What's with the onslaught of "20 Best X in Y City!" articles? Seems kind of silly... 15 best cupcakes in SF? 10 best cheesesteaks in Philly? I guess that doesn't get you the page clicks a 20 page slideshow gets...
