@Aqua-Letifer I'm ashamed to say I sometimes peck at it disconsolately while I'm waiting for the check to arrive.

Picking at it releases more of its mold-smelling foulness, which encourages projectile vomitus. To be avoided.

I like 'em both. Which one depends on the flavor and texture of the foods accompanying the slaw.

Otherwise I agree with Jolly.

Yup. Both are fine.

Mrs. George likes the slaw from KFC. I know, I know....

So she’s the one…

@Jolly is right about putting slaw in a sandwich, and you want a mayonnaise based slaw for that, but eating on the side with a slab of ribs? Give me vinegar…

Oh come ON, man! No!

We've recently gone to KFC for the first time in 20 years - there's one round the corner from where we live, and it's actually surprisingly good.

Also, you can feed a family of 4 four for $40, and have enough left over for lunch the next day, which is way cheaper than even McDonalds.

[LuFins Dad]

Ok. Next important stuff question… How strong do you make your coffee? Do you use the full 2 tablespoons per 6oz? Or less?

It's still way below my minimum shit food threshold. Chik-Fil-A is as low as I'll go out there.

Oatmeal is even cheaper, and you don't need an inorganic chem specialization to understand what you're ingesting.

@LuFins-Dad

I don't drink it. I never acquired a taste for it.

[Mik]

No idea. Whatever is in the Keurig pod. But I make it with the strong setting.

Bro, if I is, you am as well.
I also like oatmeal.

Of all the sheerly revolting foods on earth, cooked oatmeal is IMO at the top of the list. Ghastly stuff.

[Mik]

Oatmeal is only as good as the trimmings, but there are varying qualities of the base oats.

I question your ability it make it. It shouldn't be soggy.

I make coffee with 1 tablespoon of grounds per cup. French press, vigorously stirred for a minute before plunging.

I had cream of wheat last week for the first time in decades. Made it with milk. Special treat. Mostly had it with water as a kid. Milestones like that make you realize how far you’ve come in life.

Similar. I use a 15 ounce press/mug.

I put 2 ounces of coffee in that.

During my childhood, my stepmother (German born) didn't know how to make oatmeal. She'd do whatever to it in the cooking pot, and then when it was ready to be shifted to the eating bowls, she'd scoop up a spoonful of this gelatinous goop and hold it over the bowl until it fell off and landed with a wet-sounding glop. This could take a full 20 seconds until the horrid stuff released itself. Then she poured ice-cold milk over it. The mounds of gray oatmeal would loom up out of the milk like doughy tumors.

I'd have rather starved.

I have seen preparations that looked palatable, But it's too late for me.

[LuFins Dad]

I like steel rolled oats with blueberries and walnuts. No sweetener necessary…

[Jolly]

Wouldn't that be steel cut?
