    Shocking that 4 states have zero. I would have guessed only Wyoming.

      Wilmington DE certainly has more than 100K in the metro area but I guess they mean city proper. .

            I don’t have the time to research it, but I’d bet that Morgantown, WV is over 100K if you count college students. Maryland having 2 cities with 100K? Baltimore, of course. Columbia, Annapolis, and Frederick should all be there as well. My bet is Gaithersburg and Germantown will push it as well…

              They could be wrong about Columbia or nitpicking the fact that it’s not a proper city

              . Looks like they aren’t counting students.

                  When a Mexican restaurant does ramen ...

                  mexican-ramen.jpg

                  I went into a new (at least to me) Mexican restaurant and surprised to find a ramen dish on the menu. First time I have ever sees a ramen dish in a Mexican restaurant. So I tried it. It looked scary red, as if it's going be off-the-chart spicy hot, but turned out it's quite mild. Flavorful, yes, but not spicy hot.

                  It's shredded beef on top of ramen noodle in deep red broth, served with two birria rolls on the side (beef and cheese inside). The birria rolls were supposed to be crispy (I believe), but they were somewhat limp and soggy, so that's a bit disappointing to me. Still tasty though, and the ramen itself was certainly mild and interesting.

                        Interesting except I don’t think there’s any meaningful sense in which China is still communist.

                          Agree. And I would say that DPRK is "probably" more communist at now than China, at least when looking at state control of industrial and retail things. For some reason, they disappear from being communist between 1992 and 2009. #shrug
