Aww, Gary's defensive of Campbell's mushroom concoction.
 
"Water, Mushrooms, Vegetable Oil (Corn, Cottonseed, Canola, And/or
Soybean), Modified Food Starch, Wheat Flour, Contains Less Than 2% of:
Salt, Cream (Milk), Whey, Soy Protein Concentrate, Monosodium
Glutamate, Yeast Extract, Flavoring, Garlic."
 
Not so bad, except for the mysterious "Flavoring". Ground up toenails?

I don't mind unsalted dry roasted peanuts at all, even though I like
salt. They're tasty! I don't want weirdly seasoned peanuts. Or
seasoned seeds (as in sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds; I snack on
those, too). No thanks to Ranch, BBQ or whatever other things they've
come up with. Salt only, please. :)

I agree. And the commercials I saw showed "Mom" serving it to her
young children for breakfast (Nutella spread on toast) before
leaving for school. wow and yikes!

I have never eaten Nutella so I have no idea what it tastes like, but why do
you make it sound so poisonous?
 
Surely it is not or it wouldn't be on sale?

No not true, that is just how you take it because you are offended

Yup you are a theist because you are obviously a liar and just make

My friend has major problems with the crazy old lady next door. She puts
food out for critters. She puts out seed and suet for birds and puts dog
and cat food. That stuff can attract all sorts of undesirable animals.
Last year he went out and got some live traps and caught dozens of
squirrels and chipmunks and relocated them. When she learned that he
was trapping the animals she went postal and said she was going to
report him to the authorities.

Looks like your hope is a valid one. I've had turkey bacon. It's mostly a highly engineered designer food. In the future most foods will be of this nature. You cannot compare it to bacon because it's not. As we all know, I'm not fooled by surface appearances. Rather, it is a meat jerky of some sort that would be great when travelling.

I already said that I think it is turkey bacon, because it has visible
fat on it but it looks exactly like the turkey bacon I see in the
store all the time

Women's Studies and Native Studies seem to be quite popular these days.
There are lots of government jobs that seem to attract their graduates.
I wonder if it has a lot to do with the politics and empire building
that are endemic to universities these days. Things like that used to
be part of the History or Sociology departments. Each department has a
chair, and the chair gets all sorts of bonuses, a bigger office, more
perks, higher salary, more prestige. I studied physiological psychology
and comparative animal behaviour, and my degree is in Psychology. Who
knows what it would be if graduated in 2019 instead of 1974.

Many years ago, you needed no special education, just a little ability
to do a good job at the factory. In one instance, I started in the
office at one of those factories right out of high school. It was
minimum wage, but it was also a path to other jobs in other departments.
I left there as a supervisor over 45 workers.
 
Typical of factories, the workers made enough money to buy a modest
house, drive a modest car, eat well, keep their families fed, clothed
and schooled.
 
In 1970 that company moved south to save money. The number of jobs like
that began to dwindle. The world has changed, be it good or bad, adapt.

That's alright. I have many faces. I can afford to lose one. But it's
true. I work hard. Nothing to brag about, on the contrary maybe, just
a fact.

It's like a big Ponzi scheme. It starts up with one generation. They
pay into a pension fund as they work and they have a bunch of kids. The
kids start working and contributing. The first generation retires and
starts collecting and their kids' generation is paying for it. Then a
third generation comes along and there are even more paying. But then we
started having smaller families. Manufacturing starts going overseas
where the jobs pay less and they don't have pensions. Some of the jobs
are being done by robots, and they are contributing or paying any taxes.

They can go live in a ghetto and resort to crime and drugs, because
they have nothing to lose anyway. And then we spend a lot of money on
a police force to control them and fight the drugs. The Republican
Solution.

Everybody's selfish, but if too many people are too selfish, you get a
disfunctional country.

I have made several different dressing, The one I will list is the
best ever. Yes It is thousand Island, and everyone is like oh great
another thousand island, just another Russian dressing that has been
the same forever.
 
This thousand island will NOT taste like any thousand island you have
ever tried before, there are a few subtle differences that make the
world of difference. I guess if I wanted I can call it
two thousand island. The recipe ingredients must be followed exactly
I would stick with gluten free ingredients, gluten can change the
taste.
 
Thousand Island dressing
 
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup mayonnaise (gluten free)
2 tablespoons ketchup(gluten free)
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar(gluten free)
2 teaspoons sugar(gluten free)
diced bread and butter chips to taste(the more the better)(gluten
free)
finely diced onions to taste(the more the better)(gluten free)
1/8 teaspoon salt(gluten free)
1 dash black pepper(gluten free)
 
If you want to know what gluten free brands I use just ask
 
DIRECTIONS
Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Stir well.
I have found it is easier to put in a sealable container, and shake
the hell out of it.
Some say it is usually best to let the dressing sit for about 20
minutes to allow flavors to meld, but I use it right away and it is
spectacular
 
I have made up to a 4x recipe using 4x all ingredients and it has come
out just as good... and I had eaten all of it within a weeek

Even fresh water fish is better from cold water. There used to be a
trout farm near here. They tasted a little muddy in the summer but in
the winter they were much better.
