Chunky peanut butter - generic creamy seems to be fine, but I’ve never had a good store brand of chunky. They are always just slightly off somehow. Most often they’re too dry, but I’ve had some where it tasted like the peanuts were burnt.
Fellow Dr Pepper enjoyer here! 😃 same here, it just has such a specific and indescribable taste and I’ve yet to drink anything that is even remotely close to the flavour of Dr Pepper
Did you know that Dr Pepper was once marketed to also be drunk hot - a bit like mulled wine? Search for “hot Dr Pepper” on YT and prepare to look at your drink in a whole new light.
Q-Tips. Every alternative I’ve ever tried fucks it up somehow. too much cotton that it comes off, not enough and it’s scratchy, cardboard sticks that dissolve the second a single drop gets on them, or plastic ones that don’t hold onto the cotton (which is, as discussed, almost certainly already inadequate), and the weight and balance are always off too. Now, I ain’t trying to impact my earwax here (which is very annoying BTW), but nobody only cleans the outside with the Q-Tip.
They’ve been banned in europe for at least two years now, I only wish they did this with more plastic products. It’s easy to figure out alternatives for most of them
Settle down there hipster. Most peoples’ taste buds werent ruined by having tasted 15 dollar an ounce artisan organic free range no cholesterol soy sauce made by a secretive order of Japanese monks using only the finest water from the fountain of youth. Realistically they’ve got 3 options: store brand, Kikkoman and whatever overpriced soy sauce brand their local store begrudgingly put on the shelves. Theyre not cheap enough to get the store brand but lets face it, in this economy, nobody wants to shell out a dollar an ounce for something theyre going to drizzle over instant rice.
I don’t think anyone is suggesting getting soy sauce made by someone with a handlebar mustache. Just that other brands tend to be way better than the Kikkoman you would find in a grocery store.
Lee Kum Kee for example is often in grocery stores and is way better for about the same price. Kimlan is pretty good. Sempio is way way better if you can find it, which shouldn’t be too hard if you live somewhere decent.
