Got Milk? was part of a 1993 American advertising campaign to encourage the consumption of milk. It worked as many American adults consume milk. However, many non-Americans say that only babies and young children should be drinking milk.

I drink milk. Not every day... When I do, it's usually Organic 2% or Lactose free 2% and recently a grass fed variety. In my refrigerator are other milk substitutes, Soy Milk, Almond Milk and a new favorite: Oat Milk. The drawback to the oat milk is it's high caloric content. Something like 130 calories per serving, where Soy Milk is around 30 calories.

"Got Milk" ads were retired many years ago:

I never really knew what it was meant to be a foodie, rarely heard it when I was working but retiring changed the game. Until Mic mentioned one of my foodie blogs did I realize I was a foodie, a small shock to the system but now I brag about it. What I don't mention is a I'm a lousy foodie but I love it anyways.

Since retirement I've experimented on many new recipes and unknown foods to me. My most recent find is BACON JAM. When I learned to make candied pecans it was like a crack addiction to me so I have to exercise discipline, it's harsh but I do it.

Bacon Jam is like a crack addiction on steroids. I'm not going into anymore detail, google or better yet you tube it for recipes or info (I only look at healthy ones)

For Mic's sake and all his pizza talk I gave in last night and made a cauliflower crust, loaded the toppings I love and shocked myself at how tasty it was. I might try and make that again next year or if I make another I am going to use sliced tomatoes instead of the sauce with fresh mozzarella glopped on. Oh Mic my San Marzano plants are showing off their little babies, so far so good. The cherry tomatoe from 3rd generation of growing itself yielded a nice yield then died.

Cheese sauce has been my nemisis - Twice I tried a recipe using Sodium Citrate. In the video the sauce comes out smooth like a pouring nacho cheese sauce. Mine comes out in a glump, a tasty glump mind you but extremely unappealing visually. I stuffed a glop inside a burger and it was delish! I'm not touching that Sodium Citrate again.

That's it folks - Bacon Jam is my new thing and it spicy hot so quite a few friends can't handle it but my bro will kiss my a** for some.

I know what I like and don't like when it comes to foods. With limits, I'll try new things from time to time. It was time to buy another package of Italian bread crumbs and Panko style came into my radar.
Without a doubt, organic chicken breasts dipped in eggs and rolled in Panko then pan fried was 'totally awesome man'




Unlike the photo, it's best to cut the chicken into thin strips so the Panko covers every piece!

Every 4th of July Nathan's Hot Dogs has a contest on Cony Island. Joey, the undisputed king of hot dog eating was the 13-time champion setting a record of consuming 75 hot dogs in 10 minutes.
He broke his record by consuming 76 hot dogs in today's competition.

Joey "Jaws" Chestnut does it again!

Okay, I sold my house that had possibly the best mangoes in the land and I didn't have a clause in the contract granting me free mangoes for the next 50 years. Very sad about this, I am.

However, another source came up as someone with a large tree and a commercial duty food dehydrator. I'm getting fresh mangoes and a bag or two of dried fruit strips.

It's mango season!

One of my coworkers from a previous job raved about the Miami mangoes and offered to pay me for some. I refused to accept money. After moving, haven't talked to her in more than a year. I sent a text Mangoes? and she replied "sure" so we met up in the parking lot of a local pharmacy and under the lights I held out a bag of mangoes as she pulled up.
With a Hispanic accent I said: "You got da money?... I got da stuff"



I got home and a few minutes later she texted: "OMG!!! They are so sweet, thank you so much :-)

It's evening... Time for a spicy crispy mouth watering evening snack !!!
I am missing Fuchka soooooo much !!

With the exception of fish skin and chicken feet, I eat all the Chinese dishes put in front of me. I do have my limits. I'll tolerate bitter melon if it's cooked with something else. Chinese vegetables are fine, including bok choy and some decedents of spinach and broccoli.
Unless tofu gets diced and cooked with meat, it's on my 'do not eat' list.

I didn't complain (too much) at dinner tonight as tofu was in a sauteed vegetable salad and repeated a line from the movie The Three Faces Of EVE... Mommy, don't make me kiss a dead person!

Wearing a mask in public places in Omaha will be a choice and no longer a legal requirement starting midnight Tuesday.

I gotta admit, it does feel a bit awkward to walk into stores or restaurants without a mask on after 9 months of doing so.

Art and I went to have fried chicken today, 15mins drive from our house.

Nothing fancy, just raccoons ( and cats too! ) watching while we eat.









We didn’t have any dessert there coz we have got these muffins waiting for us at home! Courtesy from my Malaysian girlfriend who brought them to our house right after she baked them!



She gave us 6 blueberry muffins. Art and I each had one right away! We went to have fried chicken and as soon as we got home, we had another 2!

When I was a kid, I adored the taste of a hamburger. It was simply awesome. Over the years I lost my love for the hamburger. How did this happen? Were my taste buds changing, or has the hamburger changed? For years I believed that I had aged and my food preferences had matured.
Then in the 1980's I found myself living on a farm and running a small beef cow/calf operation. I had 2 Angus, 1 Hereford and 2 Charolais cows. I would go to livestock auctions to see what was going through the ring and one day an incredible Angus cow was brought out with her fat little bull calf. The cow was not for sale but the calf was and the cow was brought out to show the lineage. I was the winning bidder for the calf which kind of surprised me to be so lucky. I concluded none of the big buyers present needed a bull calf that day. The truth was elsewhere. When I got the calf home I put him in the barn (it's good practice to keep a new animal separated from your herd in case he has cooties) he began eating hay immediately. This was odd because he was too young to be eating hay already. He also seemed to be coughing quite a bit. Not wanting to take any chances with infecting my herd I hauled him to a large animal vet in my Chevy van. He was found to have pneumonia and was infested with worms which was what gave him his nice round appearance, he was also about 6 months old, not a month old like I thought. This explained the hay eating. Thinking back I remembered something I observed in the auction ring but disregarded at the time. The mother cow was avoiding the calf totally. Apparently she had never even seen this calf prior to being brought into the ring with him. The other, far more experienced buyers didn't miss this fact and withheld bidding. They could see the scam the auction was perpetrating by offing this runt on some shmuck (me) and I couldn't. WTH, I grew up in midtown Manhattan I had a lot to learn about cattle farming, apparently I needed educating about livestock auctions too.
