I like to respect the cultural identity of dishes or styles; but I reject cultural ownership of individual ingredients. Like, you can put things on "noodles" without needing the permission of someone Italian. :p

Making a Ninja Chicken tonight. I season and air fry a whole chicken in my Ninja foodi and it's absolutely delicious! Seasoned crispy skin and tender chicken. Also making my home made rice-a-roni (not using store bought) and also making broccolini.

It's all in my head.

I really hate picking up a loaf of bread baked at the store's bakery, and with 8-10 slices left and not even a week at home, I SEE SPOTS OF WHITE AND GRAY AND GREEN MOLD OVER ALL THE REST OF THE BREAD.

Are they playing catch the loaf before dropping them in the wrappers? Have they not cleaned the slicer since 1983?

Dinner tonight: cheese on toast and wine.

“But isabeau” you ask, “what ever shall you eat for desert?”

Why, sour sugar-sprinkled jujubes, of course.

Cheese and wine sounds good!

This is the kind of lawsuit that, in theory, can have a domino effect on restaurant advertisement because Burger King is not the only place that does this by a long shot. And it's not just fast food restaurants either.

But the lawsuit faces an uphill battle to say the least. Barring things like showing ingredients that just aren't in the product at all, or not giving customers an advertised number of individual items, American courts have for the most part historically given restaurants a blank check to deceptively advertise the size and visual attractiveness of food items. They're allowed to, say, assemble burgers differently from how they're actually served or use smaller packaging for the advertisement that makes it look like the food is bigger or there's more of it than they actually get.

It is odd the way they are distributing it. It is only available in one store in Portland, on the west edge, which is part of an Oregon chain called Market of Choice. They have 11 stores specializing in local foods. I've never heard of them. If you want one here is where you can get them.
