A lot of barbecue sauces have HFCS in them. And Ketchup and salad dressings. It's in everything almost.

At least in these cases, I can understand why - where HFCS is replacing more expensive kinds of sugar, it doesn't bother me as much.

But Wheat Thins? Do not need to be sweet!! Maybe if there weren't so much damn sugar in there to begin with, they could lower the sodium content that's currently overcompensating.

I should start making my own crackers again. They're embarrassingly easy, and I'd know exactly what was in them.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Get some fresh figs (if you can), cut them in half, smear a bit of goat cheese on the cut side, and wrap the whole thing in a slice of prosciutto. Place these on a baking sheet and broil for about 3-4 minutes, or until the prosciutto is slightly crispy.

Sean you can visit and cook for us anytime. Would this work with dried figs?

I can haz new camera! It arrived today and is very shiny! Unfortunately the memory card isn't here yet.

My trench coat has arrived! I am trying to be excited that the cold and rainy weather is continuing tomorrow so that I can wear it.

I don't think so. At least, nowhere near as well. If you can't get fresh figs, get fig jam or fig paste instead, some tortillas, caramelize some onions, and make quesadillas.

I was asking only because I already have some dried black figs. I have done the fig jam, caramelized onion and goat cheese mixture as pizza which is all your fault!

Dried figs don't quite work with the prosciutto wrapped thing, because you want the figs to be fresh and juicy. I mean, I've never tried it with dried figs, but I'm certain it would be a completely different experience, at the very least. Fresh figs are light and juicy, and dried figs would probably only get drier and more like used shoe leather.

You're welcome!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Mmm, food porn. I made country style boneless pork ribs tonight - some savory rub on for a couple hours in a slow oven, then I took a partial bottle of Kraft BBQ sauce, added some hot sauce and orange juice, and drizzled it over the ribs. Then we had some steamed asparagus with it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Dear Lord the sodium levels in American food just about gave me cardiac arrest just from reading the labels. Do the manufacturers imagine they can turn anything into bacon?
