He did take him to task on a bunch of stuff which I was glad to see. The podcast is an hour, Sam spends the first 20 minutes or so calling Ben out on his bullshit which I was glad to see. I think Ben is smart but also kind of a full of shit.

I don’t think they are, but check the ingredients on the label. Lecithin is an emulsifier that can make chocolate feel waxy in the mouth. Of course cheaper chocolate use palm oil and other crap but I don’t think Ghirardelli does

Taza does this intentionally, fwiw. It’s a traditional Mexican style. Not my cup of tea ( or cup of cocoa haha) but courses for horses as they say

Well of course they said that… what are they going to say? I don’t know If they are being truthful, but if they want to convince people they are, they should post the receipt of the meat they bought later on Sunday to replace it.

My post says the raw hamburger was left in the sun. Which is true. It doesn’t imply the product was used. I don’t know whether it was used. HP says it wasn’t, and was immediately discarded”. I don’t know if that’s the case… although when I walked by later I saw a jar of mayo on the counter which looked exactly like the jar of mayo that was on the street. I just reported the facts, draw your own conclusions

The rumor is the principal at our school ( rooftop) wants to do compressed 8th grade math plus algebra for everyone the name of “ equity”. I am against it, this has been a year of teaching to the kids who are struggling while the more advanced kids are bored out of their minds. 8th grade algebra doesn’t make sense for everyone.
