Food & Drink - 15 March 2007

Everytime I go out for Chinese, I order a combo meal with Pork Fried Rice, Chow Mein, Fried Shrimp, either BBQ pork or Sweet and Sour Chicken. The meals always come with Egg Flower Soup. I love BBQ Pork and the Egg Flower Soup, but I no longer like the other items I mentioned above. I really don't like Egg Rolls either. I order these combo meals because they sound good in my head, but I'm always let down when it arrives. What are your favorite chinese dishes? What makes your favorite dish special?

When you cook with your slow cooker, does the lid pop like it's going to blow off?

This is my first one. It burns everything so I'm trying to figure out if it's defective.

How can I cook chicken breast so it will shred?

I am making it with mole sauce (from a jar, unfortunately not from scratch) and it says to cook the chicken before heating it up in the sauce.

What should we have from the Chinese?

Hey guys and girls, how are you all?

Tomorrow me and family are sitting down to a new movie, and we want CHINESE FOOD! lol. So, we're pretty new to this whole game so we need advice on what tastes best! We've had the basics like rice and chow mein but other than that we're virgins to the more, shall we say, vibrant side of the menu.

So what do you guys recommend? Describe the tastes, the pleasures, the absorbing qualities you get from eating such fantastic meals.

(And finally, what the hell are the point in prawn crackers? They don't taste like anything!?)

Thanks.

Why does my crock pot burn every time I use it?

I follow recipes to the tee. Every recipe I've tried - from several different cook books - has burned. I live at a high altitude. Could that be the reason? :(

Kind of dumb question question.(doesn't mean it deserves a dumb answer)?

Is there a way you could brew a beverage that looks and tastes like beer but doesn't have alcohol?(not a virgin martini or whatever you people call it) I'm doing a science project and I have less than a week and am pretty desperate. Since that would probably be a hit with parents of teenagers maybe I could get like a C- or something.

Sunflower seed stuck in throat!?

I was eating sunflower seeds, and a piece of the shell got stuck on the left side of my throat! Right away I felt like throwing up, but nothing. And I ate 3 banana's and lots of water, thinking it would push it down. I need some help! Everyonce and awhile I get a sharp pain from it! I'm pretty sure it's not the entire shell or seed, just a little sliver. I'm really scared and I really want to get it out. Please Help ASAP!
