I was taught that potatoes should be stored in a cool, dark place, e.g. in a paper bag in the pantry...never in the refrigerator. Same for tomatoes.

My mom taught me to cook. My first few recipies were from the Betty Crocker book. I made pizza many times, but it was a sort of "pan pizza" with a crust made from Bisquick, adding canned tomatoes, sliced ham and covered with cheese. It sounds terrible today, but as a kid I didn't know any better. I also would make a "Strawberry Pie" that was a filling made with Jello and frozen strawberries, poured into a grahm-cracker crust (store-bought) and topped with Cool Whip. That doesn't sound so great either, but it actually tasted pretty good.

These days I make my own pizza dough and use fresh ingredients...I'm all grown up now.

I made this last night and it was excellent. Simple, clean and very tasty!

Sounds terrible. I don't see the point of all that ketchup; it's certainly no easier than opening a small can of crushed tomatoes and one of tomato sauce for a much better dish.

It's safe to conclude that it is a sign of gentrification, but also of the larger trend, more or less nationwide, of expanding food choices. My local average "supermarket" now stocks dozens and dozens of mustard varieties that were never there when I was a kid. And stop me about the vinegar choices...just endless. It takes up nearly an entire aisle.

No, not this one. Try the burger served on a split glazed donut.

Doesn't look terrific in the photo, but I will go give it a try and report back. I am a Cassells fan from way back, but I guess they've slipped. I need a new hero.

In 'n' Out fries: kind of limp and greasy, if you ask me. Good burger, though.
