Nobody, and I mean nobody, puts ketchup on a hotdog. Except I've noticed a troubling trend amongst younger people and kids doing so.

i used to...and some times still do but a very small amount...other wise spicy mustard only and lots of it

most Philadelphians do not get it with Whiz

That's a relief.

yeah usually its American or Provolone..though there was a place i used ot get mine that had a Whiz looking like cheese..but they also had american that was also melted that looked..had Whiz consistency..was amazing..

usually its like i said American or Provolone then you have to chose fried onions or not ..anything more and you really ruin the sandwich

Not to be too blunt or simplistic but the comparison really just sort of naturally falls into dichotomies

Art                                               Noory
Good                                             Bad
Interesting                                     Boring
Intelligent                                      Dumb
Engaging                                       Oblivious

Hope that helps

Pete's right. Why dump on him for asking questions that everyone else asked when the drone videos surfaced? Sounds like Art is still bitter over how the affiliates bottomed out when muh Heather took over - as if anything could have been done to prevent it. Also, hot dogs.

Can't blame Pete... the guy got the chair pulled out from under him like the rest of us.

And Art's response is to act like a six year old in a sand box.

Art does sound like he needs a good PR person

Interesting. You mean white processed cheese slices or trying to thinly slice a block of cheese? I never enjoy that as much because it just doesn't get melty enough for me.

The only difference between the "white" and "orange" "cheese" is dyeing, I imagine?

Cheese food product

Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product, according to some regulatory concerns a few years back. Same with Velveeta. Cannot use "food" in the labelling anymore.
http://www.farmanddairy.com/news/fda-warns-kraft-about-using-mpcs-in-cheese-products/123.html
For those interested here is just some of the regulations about types of "cheese:"
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPart=133

(As I've mentioned before in rants, there is almost NO aspect of your life, business, or activity that the government hasn't some regulation or law about and they increase all the time by a stroke of a pen, often without anyone even voting on it.)

Awesome, I figured she would be. They really do it up right and it raises a lot for charity and brings in money for the town.

It can be an eye-opening experience browsing the CFR, especially the FR around holidays because Government regulatory branches often announce "changes" on a late Friday etc. I'm still amazed that people think Congress makes laws. Well, they do, often unfortunately, but the real good, crazy stuff is in the rule and regulatory process. That's where the pay-offs, regulatory capture, graft, corruption, waste, and Big Brother-ism is.

I always considered Velveeta liquid plastic...try this...let it dry! Better than any thermoplastic around...

I recall that Norry has some frequent quack on who claims that Crisco was originally intended to be lubrication for marine vessels' engines and then re-marketed for food cooking when the lubricant didn't work in that capacity. I think it was the veterinarian who can solve all your health problems, and even sexual orientation I recall, by nutrition. If it is a true story that would be funny/scary.

Could be. Listerine was originally a re-marketed floor cleaner that didn't sell well.

Ha. I recall seeing old ads for Lysol for use in "feminine hygiene" around places about shocking ads of yesteryear.

Lysol is the go to cure for toe fungus.

I like fancy cheese as much as anybody, but there are some melty things Velveeta does better than anything else.  I think much of the original issue with labeling was because adding the waste whey back into cheese was seen as a shifty business practice. a way to cheat the consumer.  Taken as what it is, mostly milk and whey, it's really not that bad.

Vicks Vaporub also is the cheap cure, so I hear.

"The mass is stirred and heated until a temperature of about 145 deg. F is reached, and is held at that temperature for at least 30 minutes. The whey is drained off and the curd removed and placed in forms and pressed. The shaped curd is placed in whey and heated for 3 or 4 hours, and may again be pressed. It is then stored under conditions suitable for curing."

Yeah, it was also sold as a treatment for the clap. It was originally formulated as a surgical antiseptic, then later they tried to sell it as a floor cleaner and then finally hit upon Listerine. There's a very funny and informative series out there called Adam Ruins Everything where he shows a skit of what the 1920s marketing meeting must've been like:

We've got to convince Americans that they're dirty, filthy pigs

That is an interesting story...I'm not sure about that..most of the processed vegetable fats were meant to replace butter (margarine) or were what is called, "high ratio"...that means you can mix higher concentrations of sugar into the processed vegetable fat, than normal fats like butter or lard...makes for a sweeter product that has a longer shelf life...

I've never seen an American-made gammelost, but it's nice to know we're covered.  I'm surprised they don't mention the need for a generations-old box that grows the best mold, the comb used to work the hairy growths back into the lump, and the temperature of the hayloft you bury it in.

Speaking of odd things, there was, maybe is, a big regulatory/industry "fight" over oleo (margarine) products and butter in the past. With regard to coloring, pricing, and setting people against each other due to industries in their area/state. And not just in the US. There were/are bans, laws, regulations, etc about it dairy industry vs others etc.
ps: my granddad said they used to eat lard sandwiches back in the day, I don't anyone does anymore?
