Field Liverwurst Review
My mom used to make me braunschweiger and mustard sandwiches to tote to school on occasion. Braunschweiger is a Midwestern term for liverwurst, which in the south is also called “Kentucky Pate.” The sandwiches were a respite from the steady diet of bologna, PB&J, and that crappy lunch meat that came in plastic packages, ham,… Continue reading Field Liverwurst Review

I’ve puked out a lot of words on restaurant brands in grocery stores, just use our search box at the upper left to find articles on Steak N Shake, Fatburger, and many more like products.

Note the ingredients: Durum wheat… Continue reading Perfect Pasta Meat Ravioli Review

In addition to pizza sauce, they have a number of consumer products including tomato derivatives, olive oils, and pre-made crusts, which I tried previously.

Chicago, IL – Franks Chicago Shrimp House
When you think of “Chicago food,” most likely deep dish pizza and hot dogs come to mind; but a ‘native dish’ in Chicago is fried shrimp, and you’ll find local chains competing for the best recipes and reviews. The oldest, and arguably the best, is Frank’s Chicago Shrimp House, with four locations. I lived in… Continue reading Chicago, IL – Franks Chicago Shrimp House
Ethnic Gourmet Frozen Entrees Review
“Ironically” – where I fell in love with Indian food was when I lived in China for six years. It was available in abundance, and especially on the little island I lived on in the South China Sea. We had a couple of Indian restaurants there, my regular stop was “Toochtka’s”, run by Malloy,… Continue reading Ethnic Gourmet Frozen Entrees Review
