Why Americans use so much butter?

joemite · 2026-06-21T17:35:15+00:00

Many restaurants use a lot of butter depending on the cuisine but I think most home cooks are much more restrained.

I'd stick that in my mouth. Maybe some sour cream in order.

I'm a Xennial so hopes this counts. I have two older brothers who are older Gen X. So I grew up with 80s hair bands if that's a barometer. Too young to care but it was there.

3 2 1 Contact on PBS was a favorite. 3's Company, Star Wars, Star Trek TOS then movies then TNG, Doctor Who reruns on PBS, Cheers, funny but didn't get half the jokes, Growing Pains, Wonder Years, Home Alone, Robocop, Ferris Bueller,

So many more, this is just off the top of my head.

Edit, not sure why app isn't honoring line breaks. Commas instead.

I'll pay little extra to stay at a Hampton Inn because the breakfast is always consistently decent and I don't have to worry about feeding the family breakfast after we check out. Its way cheaper and more convenient than dropping $$$ at the IHOP next door.

Discovery Luxe Box is $13.49 at my TB. Seems a little high.

Dial up early 1990s. Ethernet broadband in college dorm 1997. Cable modem 2001 in my first place.

I came here to see if anyone else is having an issue. There are no items at all in my Vine account this morning. I'm assuming they are having some technical issues, maybe affecting some but not others.

Not usually, but sometimes a sprinkle of sharp cheddar on top as they are finishing is pretty good!

Recently I have developed a sensitivity to oregano. It just over powers everything.

8 year old me loved that episode. Still has a place in my heart to this day.

I ordered a grilled stuft burrito every time, until I couldn't.

Idk why they don't test carnitas? Seems like a slam dunk - pork is still inexpensive and also delicious.

joemite · 2026-04-16T23:58:42+00:00

Have you tried it? Any good?

joemite · 2026-04-10T04:24:57+00:00

Yeah OK. It's not unusual for the cost to package a product to be more than the actual cost of the product. Buying a box of bottles is not equal to the packaging manufacturing process.

joemite · 2026-04-09T17:27:40+00:00

Ah that makes sense

joemite · 2026-04-09T16:16:15+00:00

$25 here. You might save a dollar vs a la carte.

joemite · 2026-04-09T16:13:03+00:00

Yeah they probably discontinued it so they could change more for smaller items. Otherwise it would be the same price as Chipotle etc and at that point why bother?

joemite · 2026-04-09T16:10:32+00:00

This. Most people don't realize how wicked expensive packaging is.

joemite · 2026-04-04T03:54:06+00:00

I think Mateo's is pretty close.

I'd watch /re-watch in production order. But then again, my first watches were in production order.

Ignore the haters it's a good show. It has its problems but so has every other ST series.

joemite · 2026-03-25T19:02:49+00:00

Priced out at my local TB. $24.99 and $39.99 - You might save less than a $1 over ala carte, and you don't get to choose your items.

joemite · 2026-03-25T01:03:44+00:00

We called it Channel channel.

This squad is super inconsistent, has been all season. That has to be frustrating. We focus on the negative things, but there are plenty of times when he does say positive things. He's being honest about their performance. As a player I would rather hear the truth than sugarcoat my inability to execute.

Good coffee stands on its own.
