    Which, in this case, makes Old Faithful into Old Almost Faithful.
    Old Capricious, perhaps.
    Not quite; it goes off within a fairly narrow range but not every hour
    on the hour sort of eruption it had before the quake. Don't know if the latest quakes in CA have affected it any or not.

    There's nothing so enticingly capricious as almost fidelity.

    One food historian/anthropologist, perhaps Evan Jones,
    hypothesized that ketchup was a substitute was the
    lovely bloody juice that naturally exudes from meat.
    That just doesn't sound at all right.

    There are lots of things that don't sound right that
    might actually be right. On the other hand, tons of
    things get written that just plain aren't right.

    He (or she, if it was that Judith person who often
    plowed the same rows) didn't take into consideration
    the possibility that some people might enjoy the
    flavor alteration that such condiments bring.
    Some might. I understand my one (now deceased) cousin would go thru a
    bottle at just about every meal when he was young. The bottles were of
    a smaller size than the ones you see now, but it's still a lot of
    ketchup drowning out any other flavors/tastes.

    In my old age my tastes are aligning more with the
    USA mainstream, and I'll do ketchup in meatloaf and
    on fried potatoes.

    Sounds like the pastry had sat arund too long. It might have been

    I thought the filling pretty nasty.
    The crust was edible then? Usually if the filling is bad, it has also negativly affected the crust.

    They say hunger is the best sauce, but in this case
    it was a pretty pathetic one. The danishlike thing
    was also pretty pathetic.

    Going into what I'm thankful or not thankful would

    I wouldn't mind that much.

    Same here.
    They're a cheapish way of getting a chocolate
    - or at least cocoa - fix without melting in
    your hands.
    Sort of a chhocolate almost taffy.

    Indeed.

    I'd just use cumin and garlic and onion powders. As far
    as chemicals, though, MSG and silicon dioxide are probably
    the most harmful ingredients, and they're not too awful.
    The below recipe doesn't look too bad over all but I'd probably put in
    some ancho chili powder. Looks like it could be easily used for any
    number of Mexican dishes. I think the packaged mix might have a bit of
    corn starch or some other thickener in it also, another reason for
    making my own version.
    Homemade Enchilada Seasoning Blend

    I likely wouldn't bother with the ancho.

    I'd call it Old Almost Faithful and get a lot of "huh?" looks. (G)

    There are lots of things that don't sound right that
    might actually be right. On the other hand, tons of
    things get written that just plain aren't right.

    Leaving us to ferret out which are right, which are pure baloney.

    I'll do a bit on meatloaf & s,p, and onion/garlic powder on the fried
    potatoes.

    Hopefully you weren't too hungry then. (G)

    But is it worth posting, or just the high (or low) lights?

    I likely wouldn't bother with the ancho.

    I like it as a balance to the chipotle. Cumin also helps the balance.
