+1
It wouldn't be my preference to serve pulled pork as a wrap; but, the
American (or any) cheese on pulled pork is just WRONG!!!! IMHO.

Here's my favorite picture of Chinese bacon, those crazy Chinese:

Things may be looking up! I count 8 different kinds of bread on the
sandwich menu at his previous restaurant, including a house-made
focacia and brioche. And yes, a flour tortilla wrap is available.

Fried shaved bologna with cheese sauce sound good. Better than just
frying a thick slice of bologna.

Here, the grocery stores donate all returned shelf-stable items to the
food bank (even non-food items). So they probably get a little bit of
a write-off, and somebody will still probably get to use the item.
It's part of the cost of doing business.
 
We also get stuff from Costco and Sam's club that's returned. And
most of it is non-food items. Everything from drones to 12x12 tents
to inflatable king-size mattresses. And yes, even that $1,800
stainless steel gas grill and smoker because a $2 wheel was broken.

Yes, it's policy at all stores here. All food items that leave the
store never go back onto the shelf. It's less liability to donate it
"in good faith" or throw it away.
 
I can picture somebody like Kuthe canning rabbit and deer turds and
then putting a black eyed peas label on it and returning it to the
store. That would be really bad publicity for the store, but not so
if it came from a food bank.

Measuring cups are NOT for measuring weight. They are for measuring
VOLUME. Whether it be glass, plastic, or metal, 1 cup of chocolate
chips or 1 cup of oil is the same volume in all 1-cup measures. And
it's not intended to weigh 8 ounces (except in the case of water).
 
Speaking of density, I can't believe some people are so dense and that
websites are going out of their way to propagate that density.

It's probably a deadbolt that requires a key on both sides. In that
case, she should always have a key available just to get out the door in
case of a fire..

But make sure you grab the graphite and not the black powder:-)

Oh, heck, somebody is watching Food Network. There was something
similar last week, maybe from a food truck, maybe from one of the
dives. Find out who it is and revoke his TV approval.

Aren't there two schools of thought on the subject? You can always
have coleslaw on the side. I like coleslaw with it (no preference
between on the plate or in the bun - I like it both ways)... but mine
is made with a sweet & sour dressing (not a creamy one). The idea of
putting Southern style pulled pork dressed with BBQ sauce in a
tortilla wrap is just plain weird. Carnitas, yes. BBQ, no.

That's one way of taking advantage of the smoky atmosphere in many
Chinese cities!

no, that is pretty much all episodes.
 
No, the one where some society lady was trying to make the moves on Doc,
he accidentally runs over her dog, wraps it up and brings it to her
during a soiree and tells her "sorry, it was an accident. I believe it
your responsibility to deal with it now."

I missed that one. I binge watched the first couple seasons but have
not seen any more of it in ages.

He accidently backed over the dog that was sleeping underneath the rear
of his car. He didn't do it on purpose. Don't read more into what he
wrote. This happens way too often in this group.
