    Let's have a look in the larder... Hmmm... Onions Cucumbers Onions - red ones this time. Carrots - red Onions - Spring (or "Green" the USians call them). Brussels Sprouts Onions - White, sweet Green Beans, Yellow and white as well (frozen). Garlic - whole cloves, powdered, chopped, flaked, you name it, we've probably got it. Red Beans Green Peppers Radishes Lettuce - nice crispy Iceberg, not that other, pretentious, bitter stuff. White Cabbage Red Cabbage - gone a bit dry and brownish - chucked out. Carrots - yellow Bean Sprouts Peas - frozen - the freshest way Daikon Radish Pickled Onions Cauliflower Broccoli Kohl Rabi - gone off, we'll have to chuck them out as well. Celery - also gone gooey - in the same bag as the Kohl Rabi. Potatoes - three different kinds but I don't know the names offhand. Heinz Baked Beans - perfect! Ketchup - well if a US president says they're a vegetable, who am I to argue? No actual Tomatoes as my son is allergic to them - we gave up eating them in support. That's it at the moment.

    - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

      Just made a in-house research about vegetables... I found that we buy a bit less than 17 Kg of vegetables each week... The five vegetables made to the top are: 1. Cucumber 2. Zucchini (of different colors) 3. Potato 4. Carrot (of different colors) 5. Beetroot How're your vegetables?

          17 kg, on how many people? Here's my list of this weeks' vegetables; 1. Ketchup/tomato paste (for fries/pizza) 2. Fried unions (fries) 3. Sriracha (pizza) 4. Garlic powder (anything except icecream) 5. Pesto (pizza)

          "How" they are? Well, the first is happy in a bottle, the fried unions are miserable in a box. The garlic powder is feeling dry, the sriracha is feeling hot.

          Have you ever tried garlic ice cream using fresh garlic chips. The contrast between the cold of the ice cream and the hot zing from the raw garlic is really nice.

                                      Potatoes aren't meat, so they must be a veggie too. Same goes for rice :thumbsup:

                                      But both potatoes and rice are so full of carbohydrates that if you are having too high blood sugar levels, in the risk zone for developing diabetes II, you should not eat excessive amounts of either.

                                        Just made a in-house research about vegetables... I found that we buy a bit less than 17 Kg of vegetables each week... The five vegetables made to the top are: 1. Cucumber 2. Zucchini (of different colors) 3. Potato 4. Carrot (of different colors) 5. Beetroot How're your vegetables?

                                        17 kg!? Are you feeding livestock? The wife and I would be lucky to consume 1 cucumber, 1 zucchini, 2 potatos and 2 carrots in a week. Beetroot, we don't see this often prepared in the US excepting the purple pickled variety that grows in a can. We do like lettuces, peppers, tomatos and onions. How're my vegetables? Waiting for a saute, I think.

                                          I enjoy teasing some parents - usually mothers about corn (i.e. maize): Popcorn was introduced in Norway approx 50 years ago, as a Saturday night snack in the same main group as ice cream and chocolate. Or a special treat in movie theaters. Something that is not very healthy, but we must allow ourself some slight "misbeaviour" every now and then. Lots of Norwegian people/parents still have the conception that popcorn and sugar sweets are equally unhealthy. So I ask these parents: Why don't you serve them maize instead? (We call it 'mais') They look back: I could never make them eat maize as a snack! Sure you can, I tell them: There are special variants that you can fry in a couple tablespoons of oil util the grain pops open and they are crispy and tasty! Add a little salt, not too much, and I am sure that they will love it! Very few parents accept that popcorn and yellow, boiled maize essentially is the same food. But it is. I must add that not one of all my friends can stand this crazy American idea of having butter dripping down on the corn to soak it with butter as it pops. Also, a major reason for popping your own is to reduce the amount of salt to a third of that in pre-popped corn. Rather, try spreading a little garlic granulate and/or ground juniper berries on it immediately after popping. Or experiment with other spices. Even though it is possible to force maize to be unhealthy, if you insist, you certainly don't have to do so!
