Food & Drink - 14 December 2006

My wife doesn’t care much for the taste of booze of any kind.

She normally has a screwdriver with like half the normal amount of vodka, and still says they are too strong, or a slow gin fizz. She often complains they are 'too heavy' she hates the taste of rum so that out.

I'm trying to find a drink with a little kick to it but not one that’s noticeable.

Any ideas?

i find a bunch of recipes online for taco bake, but none of them are even close to looking like the one from old el paso, i know i could buy a box and make it from there but i want to try making it without.

If you are used to putting it in a dishwasher, this might seem like a silly question, but I have always washed it by hand... so that's why I am asking...

I need a good recipe for chocolate rum balls that have a cake consistency, as opposed to using those crushed wafers, which I don't like very much. Thank you!

Why are Kosher Dills called kosher dills? Is it kosher salt? Or is it because they are approved kosher?

Jewish kosher laws mean no pork products, I think. And kosher salt means it's pure salt, not mixed with iodine. Because God hates iodine, you bunch of iodine eating heathens.

So what the heck?

I also thought about adding marbles as an alternative.

wouldn't that be funny?! you could put some funny stuff in spaghetti sauce....m&m's, orange slices, scrabble pieces would be fun, starbursts....maybe I'm alone in thinking this would be funny.
what would you put in your sauce?

I was raised in Pakistan for 16 years (after which I moved to the US). During my stay there, I'd accompany my grandmother to the open market to buy fruits, veggies, grains and meat. And it always fascinated me, the meat stalls especially. I'd see a chicken being slaughtered in front of my own eyes (the butcher slit its throat and tossed it into a large barrel, letting it die on its own before getting it out and plucking the feather with its own hands). This other time, I saw a butcher pick up a chicken's head and pushed it inside out to reveal its brain *gag*. And I'd see goat's head lined up on a table, although I have no idea how people could eat that, really.

And despite seeing all that, although I felt sick I never felt sorry for the animals. Don't get me wrong. I'm a pretty emotional person. Suffering really gets to me. But why don't factory farmed animal make me feel bad for them? Why can I just go on and eat meat like nothing's wrong while so many people are so affected by it?

I need some recipes for a low calorie russet potato soup that doesn't require a ton of ingredients. I prefer something totally meatless---no chicken, turkey, beef or pork stock.

I will be going back to pressure cooking which is a safe, fast & fantastic way to cook. This time I will go for an electric programmable cooker. Can anyone give me their experience with this particular type p/cooker? The convenience factor of it turning on/off etc. & maintaining pressure automatically sounds just great. Input on this particular type pressure cooker please and give me brand, model, capacity and cost too if you can..
