I put pickles peppers on pizza... haven't tried pickled cucumbers though.

yes. it's good.

I'll bet that's good...it makes sense from a flavor perspective.

I tried fried pickles for the first time recently. They were a lot better than I expected. Really good.

Fried pickles are wonderful.

Shaf, if you're going to start saying things like pickles on pizza makes sense "from a flavor perspective" I must insist that you start spelling it 'flavour'.

According to the Texas Department of State Health Services, the word "pickles" only refers to items made with cucumbers. This has prompted a lawsuit:

That reminds me of the Louisiana incident where a homeless shelter was obligated by health inspectors to pour Clorox on around $8,000 worth of venison that had been donated, because deer is not approved for commercial fabrication and distribution in LA, and there was therefore no way to know how the animals were killed or butchered (despite being broken down by a facility that was licensed by the state to do that stuff for other - presumably legal - animals). Sort of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Wasn't there a recent fight over "milk"? They defined it as cow's milk being the only thing that can be called milk?

I want to say the FDA is currently looking into making rules about whether the plant-based fluids made from almonds, rice, soy, etc. can be called "milk." There have also been lawsuits about whether skim milk can be called skim milk. For example, Florida had a law that said you had to add vitamins and other ingredients back into skimmed milk in order to call it "skim milk," and some farmers sued them and won:

something something nipples something almonds, Focker

I tease my wife about almond "milk" all the time. My sons and I don't like the taste of almond milk, but my wife loves it. Sometimes she can trick the kids into drinking chocolate almond milk, but they'll soon wise up.

I do find it funny that farmers are trying to eliminate the word "milk" from almond milk, but coconut milk has had a long run without any complaints.

Coconut milk hasn't been cutting into their sales, so of course they don't take issue with it.

Any Traeger users here? Metz & I bought one and have used it a few times. Pork butt, ribs, and pork tenderloin so far. Not a bad turnout out of the bunch.

Stop pooping.

What's the appeal of almond milk over soy milk? I've been drinking Silk soy milk for about 9 years now.

For me, I need to avoid anything soy - causes my autoimmune issues to flare up. I think it can affect those with thyroid issues too.

Isn't there something in soy that contributes to man tits, as well? Or am I making that up...

Soy contains isoflavones that mimic the effect of estrogen on the body.

My youngest is lactose intolerant, and he drinks almond milk.

My twins go through a gallon of skim milk a day.

I was first exposed to soy milk in Afghanistan. Many of the other Marines wouldn't go near the stuff because they thought it was bottled estrogen.

My moobs are fantastic, and they're real.

And just like that.... "Almond Breeze milk recalled for possible real milk contamination"

hah

I switched to unsweetened vanilla almond milk for my coffee a couple of years ago. It's good, and better for my digestion.

We usually get the ol' Wal-mart brand of it, so no worries about the recall.

"They're real, and they're spectacular".

If I must endure Seinfeld references, I insist that they be canonically accurate.
