Target's Market Pantry is my favorite. It's firm and stringy with good flavor.

Cook the Book: 'The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook'

I was always curious about the frobscottle in the BFG, a fizzy drink with bubbles that traveled down instead of up, causing Whizzpoppers (toots!)

Would You Eat Breast Milk Ice Cream?

This milk would be better used by a milk bank for babies with mothers with lactating difficulty, rather than a "shocking" ice cream.

This Week in America's Test Kitchen: Is Imitation Vanilla OK to Use?

For me, it depends what I'm making. If it's custard then it has to be real vanilla paste, same for ice cream. If I'm baking a really light vanilla flavored cake, real vanilla it is, same for caramels and caramel sauce. But if the main flavor isn't vanilla, or if there are other stronger flavors in the product, imitation is good enough for me. I use it in chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, and other cookie recipes.

Yelp

My mom had a review she wrote disappear from the main forum but she can still see it on her profile page, which is disappointing. It was a positive review about her experience purchasing my sister's wedding cake. I hope the star rating for the bakery didn't go down when her good review did.
