I cant decide if I can just never get lentils to be the way I want them or I dont know how lentils should be when properly cooked.

A conundrum.

I, for one, have ordered bougie garbanzo beans.

When times are hard, we eat more beans. And it's happening again now — NPR

The fiber craze is pushing more people into the broad world of beans, as the U.S. bean industry looks to double American consumption of pulses by 2030.

Katsuobushi (Dried Bonito Flakes)

Katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) is more just the key ingredient in making dashi soup stock. Rich in amino acids, it's also great for onigiri rice balls, salads, noodles, and more!

Maybe also Japanese-inspired nachos or fries? Onigiri? ...Deviled eggs?

That reminds me of an amazing dish my buddy and I had post-Phish MSG show at 1am, okonomiyaki fries: Kewpie mayo, tonkatsu sauce, furikake, togirashi, bonito flakes.

I occasionally will post about the unhinged billboards near ORD. Today’s winner:
Rosatti’s: no hair, just great pizza.
This is like something out of Detroiters. I was not thinking about hair in pizza until this billboard and am now grossed out. The idea was that the Rosatti family is all bald men but instead I am associating their pizza with hair.

Poor man's okonomiyaki. Make an omelet (add flour and thin with water or broth then season with pepper/salt), add cheese/protein, swirl some kewpie on top and add it to the top.
