I mostly avoid eating simple sugar unless it's naturally in whole fruit.
My wife made marshmallow cereal bars with peanut butter and chocolate, with the kids helping. Less than 12 hours later, I caught myself mindlessly taking a bite of one.
That put me down the path of finding out if I can make a low-sugar version. First problem is the marshmallows. There basically aren't any sugar free versions, not at the volume needed to make even a small batch of bars.
We saw an advertisement for Burger King's SpongeBob SquarePants promo Whopper. It has a square bun on the bottom, but the standard round bun for the top.
Wife said, "why not a square top bun too?"
I said, "it's not SpongeBob SquareHat. He just needs a square bottom bun for his pants."
Congrats Burger King, you've injected yourself into the national discourse.
The secret weapon of soup making this season is our newly purchased Instant Pot Rio 7.5 quart. My wife used it the first time a couple weeks ago to make quick work of a pot roast and vegetables. This will be the second use.
Iโm soaking beans and chopping carrots, celery, and onions. It must be Winter and time to make soup again! First soup of the season.
I'm putting together an online order for KFC in central Iowa, and coleslaw is unavailable. Can you believe that? I did a quick Internet search, and it looks like there was a recall related to the onions.
I know it's not gourmet, but I love White Castle sliders that you can buy frozen in the supermarket.
There's no Del Taco restaurants in Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kansas, or Missouri, but I'm supposed to believe Del Taco is the best fast-food restaurant in the nation-wide category? Sus.

My wife made homemade ham and bean soup today based on a "16 bean soup starter" bag of dry beans. So good.
This batch had 2 onions and about 5 celery stalks diced very fine such that they disappear in the broth โ it's a way of sneaking some extra fiber into our diet. Other fiber sources include the beans, tomatoes, and carrots.
