NATIONAL CHEESE FONDUE DAY Observed annually on April 11th, National Cheese Fondue Day recognizes a food holiday many enjoy. Fondue is a dish of melted cheese or other ingredients, served in a communal pot (caquelon) over a small portable stove (réchaud). Participants then dip the bread into the cheese using long-stemmed forks. Cheese fondue consists of a blend of cheeses, wine, and seasoning. #NationalCheeseFondueDay A 1966 book published in Zurich, under the name "Kass mit Wein zu kochen" is known for having the earliest known cheese fondue recipe. It calls for grated or cut up cheese melted with wine and...

Fifty years after Monty Python and the Holy Grail redefined comedy, stars Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam look back on the freedoms – and limitations – that shaped the film. An independent British comedy made on a shoestring by a television sketch troupe? It sounds like a film destined to be forgotten within weeks of leaving cinemas – assuming it reaches cinemas in the first place. But Monty Python and the Holy Grail is still revered as one of the greatest ever big-screen comedies, 50 years on from its release in April 1975. Terry Gilliam, who co-directed the film with...

The hybrid version of paneer made by the University of Copenhagen researchers. (Credit: University of Copenhagen) In a nutshell * Researchers have developed hybrid protein gels combining dairy (casein) and plant (pea protein) to create a more sustainable, cheese-like product with a texture similar to traditional paneer. * Replacing part of the milk protein with pea protein not only reduces environmental impact but also increases product yield, offering food manufacturers more efficient use of ingredients. * Hybrid cheeses provide a middle ground for flexitarians—those who want to reduce animal products without eliminating them—by maintaining the familiar taste and texture of...

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Beaverton residents are on alert after a cougar was recorded walking through the backyard of a Cedar Hills neighborhood home at 1:45 a.m. on March 18. The sighting occurred 0.2 miles from Cedar Hills Crossing, a popular shopping center in the area. On Thursday, a second sighting was reported a mile away from the first sighting, Deputy David Huey of the Washington County Sheriff’s Office told KOIN. “Today, WCSO received a notice of a sighting near the 13,000 block of SW Foothill Drive,” Huey said. “They are fairly close to each other on the map.”

ARCHES NATIONAL PARK, Utah (KUTV) — A trailer carrying thousands of pounds of shredded cheese split open after the semi-truck hauling it tipped over near the entrance to Arches National Park in Grand County, spilling its contents across the roadway. Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Cameron Roden said the semi, traveling southbound on US-191, veered off the road for an unknown reason around 6 a.m., striking two light poles. The trailer tipped over upon impact and spilled shredded cheese across the highway. All southbound lanes were closed while two tow trucks worked to remove the semi from the scene. Northbound traffic...

Behind that aroma is a complex cheese packed full of flavor.Just because an ingredient or dish is polarizing doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. As a child I didn’t like mushrooms — their somewhat slippery texture can be off-putting — but learning to love them over the years has opened up new opportunities to enjoy a meaty, umami-packed, and versatile ingredient. What would I do without buttery mushroom pastas and crispy fried fungi in my life now? Among the world of misunderstood ingredients, perhaps none is as renowned stinky cheeses. Taleggio, Limburger, Époisses, raclette, and Gruyère are all varieties...

I see there is an idea being floated by President Trump regarding a "sovereign wealth fund" wherein taxpayer monies, controlled by a federal government entity, would be used to buy interests in private business. Trump says maybe the SWF would invest in Tik Tok, and other companies. Someone help me make sense of this: what is this if not socialism, or direct government control of what ought to be a private sector interest. I don't like this idea.

The commercial shows Gemini wrongly stating that Gouda makes up ‘50 to 60 percent of the world’s cheese consumption.‘ Google just debuted a series of Super Bowl ads showing how small businesses use Gemini AI across all 50 states, but the cheese lovers out there might notice something a little off about its Wisconsin one. As spotted by @natejhake on X, the ad shows Gemini AI generating text that says Gouda accounts for “50 to 60 percent of the world’s cheese consumption” — a stat that isn’t quite accurate. The cheese is undoubtedly popular in Europe, but the same can’t...

Researcher Alejandro Marangoni demonstrates the stretchy properties of his team’s plant-based cheese analog. Credit: Alejandro Marangoni Researching the interactions between plant-based proteins and fat matrices can enhance the texture and nutritional quality of vegan cheeses. Plant-based dairy products offer a popular alternative for those who avoid animal products, but manufacturers struggle to replicate the rich, creamy texture that makes traditional dairy so appealing. To address this challenge, scientists from the University of Guelph in Ontario and Canadian Light Source Inc. in Saskatchewan are developing plant-based cheese that closely mimics the taste and texture of real cheese while providing improved health...

A Redditor was stunned to discover that a packet of Swiss cheese contained holes only in the display section visible through the packaging. The user, u/pianoshootist, shared their unusual find in the subreddit Mildly Infuriating, where the post quickly amassed over 40,000 upvotes. "They only put holes in the display part of the Swiss cheese," the OP wrote in the title of their post. Accompanying it was an image of a square slice of Swiss cheese with holes strategically placed along the edge. These holes were visible through the transparent portion of the packaging, creating the illusion of a "hole-y"...

Question for off-road folks. I need to raise the front of the pickup a couple of inches to keep a front trailer hitch from hitting parking stops and curbs when parking. 90%+ of the time the truck is going to be on pavement or gravel. The other 10% is on the beach. The 4x4 accessory shops want to install struts which costs much more than I want to spend. They poo-poo spacers saying it will affect the smoothness of the ride. Do spacers affect the ride on pavement to the point it's noticeable? (posting here because I don't want to...

In a nutshell * Scientists have developed a plant-based cheese using a specific pea protein and oil blend (25% coconut oil, 75% sunflower oil) that matches the texture and melting properties of dairy cheese while containing less saturated fat. * The breakthrough challenges the common belief that high saturated fat content is necessary for proper cheese texture, as the new formulation achieved similar firmness (80 Newtons) to versions made with 100% coconut oil. * The research demonstrates that carefully selected plant proteins can create healthier cheese alternatives without sacrificing the stretchy, melty qualities consumers expect, potentially revolutionizing the plant-based dairy...

Watch this deranged liberal mock a poor woman who is going hungry to make sure daughter eats, all because she didn't vote for the "right" person. However, this story has a happy ending.

Thought it might be nice to have a general chat thread here. If Mr. Jim Robinson does not object, I will spin one up most days. (I don't sleep much so will spin one up about 5 or 6 am Eastern most day -- again only if Mr. Robinson does not object.)
