Yeah, Technivorm has great coffee makers.
To me, MB is one of the best supermarket chains in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Great service.
That must have been how my aunt learned her coffee-making method. Contrast my great-grandfather, who my mother claimed, liked his coffee strong enough that the spoon could stand upright in the cup. A slight embellishment.
That’s kind of how the guy at the coffee shop in town here makes it.
I see what you did there:
“filter out”
Serious, folks this is the most frivolous lawsuit I have heard of in a long time. Market Basket is a great super market chain. I shop there personally. They are less expensive than going to Costco, BJs or Walmart. I have no relationship to them other than a customer. They crush the competition around here in New England. Their prices are typically 25% or more cheaper on the exact same item as Shaws or other competitors.
In addition, they are a family owned business that has a great profit sharing plan for all of their full time employees. There is a reason why you see name tags of their employees that say 25-35 years. It is a great company to work for.
Apparently it’s how you word your product and not the truth behind it...
Thanks. My situation is that I’m new to coffee drinking. I never liked the taste when I tried it as a youngster and never took it up so its a bit odd for me to start when I’m in my 60s. I only started because it’s been said 1 or 2 cups a day has some health benefits. Not sure about that but it’s out there. So I forced myself to drink it straight black. Then I drowned it with cream and sugar for a while but I’m back to straight black again. Instant because it’s the simplest and I’m not sure I’ll detect any difference in my taste buds for brewed but I’ll take your word and give it a shot so to speak. I may do a side by side test to see how it is with me.
Reminds me of a billboard campaign years ago for Fosters beer. Lots of images of Australia and the word imported emphasized. So I picked up a can and in fine print it says brewed in Canada. :)
Before or after Market Garden?
I don’t approve of litigating jokes. Community consensus would show any sane person would know the bananas car offer was a joke.
Defrauding consumers by flat out lying about measurable numbers of servings is another thing. Do we want a nation where manufacturers can just lie and cheat? Just weights and honest measures. It’s not like they were just a teaspoon off.
It’s not about the $2.50. It’s about honest trade. We can’t let manufacturers pull this crap.
While some restaurants make a decent cup of coffee finding a place that makes a good cup of tea is nearly impossible.
Even in good restaurants you ask for a pot of tea and they bring you a tepid pot of water and the cheapest bagged tea.
The reason I suggested the french press is that the Aeropress is nearly impossible to find in a second hand store while there is a whole shelf of french presses often new in box.
I don’t think they were cheating.
I guess it all depends on what size cup you use.
Just try walking into a Home Depot and asking for a bundle of “one and a halves by three and a halves”.
Exactly.
Youre right My bad
Yup. But it turned into a Bridge Too Far.
Montgomery’s Folly.
Well they said there were so many rounded teaspoons in the can and apparently there are routinely half that. That’s a pretty big cheat.
You might remember the great Market Basket strike of about 6 or 7 years ago. The workers went "on strike" for, get this, because their beloved CEO got fired by the board. Probably the only time in the history of labor that workers went on strike in support of management. (The CEO ended up not only getting reinstated but he purchased the company.)
Market Basket is a no frills supermarket chain that focuses on value for their customers. They are one of the things I miss most about moving out of Massachusetts.
You mean like Joe Biden saying he won’t ban fracking?
From the first debate:
WALLACE: “You propose $2 trillion in green jobs, you talk about new limits, not abolishing, but new limits on fracking. Ending the use of fossil fuels to generate electricity by 2035 and zero net emission of greenhouse gases by 2050. The President says a lot of these things would tank the economy and cost millions of jobs.”
BIDEN: “He is absolutely wrong.”
FACT: Biden’s energy plan would cost trillions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of jobs.
-Biden admitted he would willingly “sacrifice” “hundreds of thousands” of fossil fuel jobs in pursuit of his anti-energy agenda.
-Biden has made clear – he wants to “end” fossil fuels, saying they would have “no place” in a Biden presidency.
-Biden has said he would “love to make sure we can’t use any oil or gas, period” and that he would “make sure” fossil fuels and fracking are “eliminated.”
-Over 10.3 million American jobs are supported by the oil and gas industry.
-Biden has vowed that there would be no place for fracking in a Biden Administration, saying it would be “eliminated.”
-Biden’s plan to ban new energy permitting on federal lands alone would threaten an estimated 268,000 jobs.
Completely banning fracking would destroy anywhere from 1 million to 19 million jobs.
-Biden has proposed completely eliminating oil, gas, and coal from the U.S. power grid by 2035.
-Prior estimates show eliminating oil, gas, and coal from the U.S. energy grid would cost anywhere from $4.5 trillion to $5.7 trillion, with an average cost of $35,000 per household.
