The little sea-asparagus crunch, creamy avocado, sharpness of the onion with the tenderness and children of God and the objects of the divine kindness...but it's all there is because I've got to use it to start this cake. I think it's going to be one of the most delicious recipes I've ever eaten in an oven. There really are only three ingredients that make this dish so good: an olive oil can of sea cucumber, an instant oatmeal muffin with coconut, and an extra oatmeal muffin.

my philosophy on non-native speakers trying to say words or names from other languages is that if youre just speaking casually, its fine to say it in your accent as long as its not absolutely egregious. but if youre teaching a class or trying to pay respects to whatever or whoever it is, then you should try your best to pronounce it however its pronounced in its native accent
Like of all the parts of the US you choose the 2 most known for having its distinctive cuisine devised by people who absolutely were not "convinced" to be in the US
So, my buddies Josh and Billy here -- have you ever had a chili relleno in a burrito? So then, what do you believe in?
I don't know, there are too many people that come to chili burritos. They talk about chili, how good it is, and just tell you not to eat it.
So there’s this audio on tiktok i love but it made me question a few things, i will put down the transcrip down here:
- So like what are you putting down?
+ idk man i put down “Hispanic & Latino” for background, but i'm like, i don't know what the race is
- Try putting down "white"
+ Do i look white to you!?
- Black?
+ tf?
- I'm not gonna lie to you "Pacific Islander" is looking really good rn
- We could pass off as Hawaiians
+ But like bro, what am i supposed to put down!?
I’m mexican and i always wondered how to answered that kind of questionnaires, loved that one of the comments i saw said “i’m just gonna write down colonized”.
Real question: would Hawaiians be ok if some of us were to write down “Pacific Islander” and try to pass off as Hawaiians?
Tho i gotta say only USA questionnaires are that specific when it comes to race, most i’ve seen only have: white, black, asian and mixed as the options and i always choose the last one cause like unless you do a dna test or have a very good record of your family tree history, most of us don’t know our background.
I made a Pillsbury Grands!™ Flaky Layers Sweet Hawaiian Biscuit, Skinnygirl Blackberry Mule Sugar Free Preserves Smucker's Red Plum Jam, Meijer Creamy With Honey Peanut Butter Spread, Kroger Gluten Free Honey Crunchy Roasted Peanut Spread, and Breckenridge Farms Mexican Blend Shreds Cheese Omelet Biscuit sandwich.
This sandwich was microwaved.
This breakfast biscuit sandwich was pretty good.
The biscuit was light and fluffy with a light sweetness.
The jams had a lightly sweet blueberry mixed with plum fruit taste that went well with the light sweet while salty peanut butters.
The honey crunchy peanut butter gave this biscuit sandwich a crunch texture.
The teriyaki and tocino spams with the breckenridge farms Mexican blend shreds cheese omelet gave a firm but soft texture that went with the jams with peanut butter spreads in this breakfast biscuit sandwich.
The omelet was lightly peppery and the cheese lightly melted but was well seasoned.
This breakfast biscuit was lightly sweet and salty.
