What are you eating?

Basque baked cheesecake. I’ve somehow managed to overcook the top slightly whilst very slightly undercooking the centre, but I’m still here for it.

I tried Lucky Charms for the first time today, having seen a single-serve packet on the shelf in the supermarket on my way into work.

Not. A. Fan.

Like, ok, I somewhat enjoyed the Star Wars vibe of it turning the milk blue. I can get on board with that. But marshmallows for breakfast, America? Why all y’all gotta be putting marshmallows in everything? I was eating it, and I knew it was very sweet, but I only realised how much sugar when I left my spoon on my desk whilst I logged on and the blue milk residue on the spoon set into a very thin icing. That’s too much sugar.

On average, Americans consume 126.4 g of sugar every day. 2.5 times the WHO’s recommended maximum for a 2000-kcal diet, and 23% more than the next highest, Germany, and 35% more than the average Brit.

Well I’d assume that’s because if you’re not drowning something in maple syrup, you’re serving it with marshmallows.

A common holiday side dish is sugared sweet potatoes topped with marshmallows.

I hate that. It's so disgusting.

My grandma also would make a gelatine mold with fruit and vegetables in it and top it with a layer of marshmallows.

Just be thankful you've not been subjected to potted hough (jellied sheep head/various other bits).

Jellying meat should be illegal.

Ever tried burnt cheese cake? It's really good. Much easier to make and it has a unique flavor.

Oh wait, that's probably what you meant. Yeah, I don't know how one fucks that up.

So while browsing through Reddit today I stumbled upon a post in which someone created a website that extracts the necessary ingredients and directions from an otherwise unnecessarily lengthy food blog: https://reciperetrieve.com/home

Same thing happened to me, actually. My father (a man, I might add, with whom I have little to nothing in common), used to grow weed in the basement of the house when I was a kid. When I was 15 though, he and his 19 year old girlfriend left edibles out on the kitchen counter and when I got home from school, since he wasn’t there to warn me, I ate two unknowingly and ended up high out of my mind. I was so scared, because I’d no clue what was going on with me for the first 30min and had zero tolerance for weed whatsoever. I’d a midterm the next day and, obviously, studied not at all that night. So, yeah, I tend to avoid brownies now.

I need some shrimp tacos in my life right now. All I really had today is candy. Mainly small bites of chocolate bunny, fruit roll ups, blueberries, and a couple of halo oranges. I've had my sweet fix today. My mom gave me a massive Easter basket and I have no kids to share with the little shitheads.

Is your keyboard glowing?

Reese's Peanut butter cheese cake my roommate made! I guess fat me and wants the whole thing… I compromised and got 1/8 a pie.
