    Me too - there are some really good ones out there. Sort of sad - the bad reputation they get. But I also love plum pudding (my Dad was British) and mince pie. I started candying my own orange and lemon peel - it’s easy and makes a huge difference (the stuff you buy at most grocery stores is pretty awful).

      Heck, yeah! And your dad being british, I bet you eat plum pudding with hard sauce, yes?

          Whoever did their photos doesn’t understand “canned fruit”. Looks like home-preserved fruit - they should have posted a picture of that godawful canned fruit cocktail. Apparently nobody does frozen concentrate orange juice anymore either Steve has a small glass every morning with breakfast, and the frozen concentrate section in the grocery store has gotten tiny. It’s less expensive and less wasteful (packaging-wise) than those big plastic bottles of juice.

          I adore blue cheese and meatloaf. And the taste of American cheese (though I never buy it).

          We used those growing up. Wow, almost forgot about them. We used an immersion blender to mix up the OJ. Funny what things are normal to you as a kid.

              I eat blue cheese and McDonalds is a guilty pleasure, though their quarter pounders are getting more and more greasy to the point of being hard to eat. I still sneak in one of their sausage biscuits once every month or two on average.

              I don't eat anything else on that list. I suppose I'd eat meatloaf if it were presented to me.

              Only non-witches get due process.

                Guys, this article was a pretty obvious AI-generated content filler. My guess is that the "author told the chat AI to write a list of foods that boomers eat that millennials won't because they are healthier...

                  The blue cheese section has a photo of actual blue cheese, and then says:

                  An ever-increasing number of millennials opt for ranch over this classic condiment due to its unappealing moldy texture.

                  Ranch? - What, ranch cheese?

                        Blue cheese is good but I’ll take Stilton or, even better, Shropshire, any day over Blue.

                            @Catseye3 Yes. Lots of hard sauce. Sometimes the hard sauce all by itself, after the plum pudding is gone. Hard sauce is the BEST.

                                    This is one of my absolute favorite cheeses - (it’s actually 2 together) - It’s called Huntsman - a double Gloucester and Stilton. Can’t find it here.

                                        @Renauda We used to get it for a treat at Christmas when we lived in Idaho. The fancy cheese/wine store in town had a Huntsman with more layers than the one on the website I linked to. I should see if the wine store here could order it for me.
