Nobody cares about food.

Banana nut icecream from the US Navy in 1945, usually made on submarines. Max Miller finds it very tasty.

Went to the grocers this morning and decided to walk by the eggs, which is something I haven't really done the past four years or so. (Thanks, COVID! Thanks, TRUMP!) They were adozen large for 99 cents!

I'm boiling four eggs now. Going to have two for lunch, with the other two going in the fridge. I picked up some extra cheese to make a couple small omelettes on Tuesday or Wednesday, and I'm planning a potato frittata on Friday. Egg week!

McDonald's has finally got the memo that their food is even too shite for junk food, and wants to improve it.

So internally a program named NEXT has been launched in June 2026. There are four areas of focus, one is centered on improving chicken, beef and beverage quality at scale. It should include new sauces for chicken, improved McCrispy platform, a broader McCafe refresh an seasonal refreshers.

I wonder how this is going to turn out.

Yum, I'm thinking about making myself a spinach and bacon omelette tonight.

I’m eating some smoked oysters from a tin, along with crackers and a little lemon juice.

I remember when I was young, my mother would eat canned crab, shrimp, and smoked oysters. Consider them as small luxuries. Keep in mind, she also ate squeezable log cheese and drank tang.

Anyway, the tinned oysters make for a good late night feeling peckish snack
