unclevlad Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Mmm...true enough, I suppose. I think it's why Subway's running their current, VERY!!! expensive ad campaign pushing a "refresh." Whatever...but they're paying Steph Curry, Serena Williams, Megan Rapinoe, Tom Brady, and Charles Barkley (voiceover only, but still). SERIOUS cash had to be dropped on that lineup.

unclevlad Posted August 6, 2021 Report Share Posted August 6, 2021 Yeah, Brady's inclusion is pretty bizarre, as is his choice to appear. Side note: I can't imagine why they don't let Charles Barkley appear on camera............................ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjack Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 Invoking the name of Tom Brady still has a lot of juice here in the Northeast and especially here in Boston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 Back to foods ... Because things are in season, I made fresh green salsa last night. Fresh tomatillos, an anaheim pepper, two jalapenos, a clove of garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, juice from a lime. Whir in a food processor until it's all fine bits. Chill in a glass bowl for a couple hours. This version had very little heat (I may have to upgrade to a serrano next time) and was quite sweet.

Dunno what you have available, but down here the long greens vary from quite mild to moderate. That might raise the baseline a bit. Alternately, drop the long green and make it 4 jalapenos.

Cancer Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 The long green does add sweetness and not much more. That isn't needed with in-season tomatillos, so I could have it left it out. At other times of the year it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcw43921 Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 I think there have been chocolate (or chocolate-flavored) sodas before--it's just something that didn't quite catch on. I'd look it up right now, but I'm in the middle of looking up something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s as nasty as it sounds, but some people love it. Grailknight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their success rate doesn't have to be high, and there are people foolish enough to fall for it..... But hey, there are Jelly Belly flavors out there that are as bad. That also reminds me...a couple weeks ago, pretty much 1st of August...the main Albertsons I use for a majority of my shopping, had cleared out their summer seasonals stuff. In its place...the first cases of clearly-marked Halloween candy. <sigh> Next trip is tomorrow; it'll likely be fully stocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
