When I saw it on TV, they showed the cooks actually spreading lard on the buns to dress the bread before assembling the burger. :wow:

It was quite unsightly and unappetizing.

It's Wednesday... That means marinated salmon and Haiga brown rice... :victory:

Speaking of roast beef....I like Applegate Farms Roast Beef. It tastes great :victory:

^ Hmm, nice.

Whole Foods or online only?

I don't buy it very often but yeah I get it at Whole Foods. It's pretty tasty, man. I also like the Italian Roast Beef at the deli counter at Bristol Farms. If I go to other markets I usually just pick up turkey for sandwiches.

You are like in health zen. I must aspire to greater heights, but in the meantime. :drink:

But that's only the stuff that I mention... Not some of the crap that I do eat on occasional binges... Like the Hebrew Nationals and pizza on Super Sunday. :beaten:

HAHA. No I decided to get a "genuine" coffee cafe latte. It was good too. :)

EDIT: I am not a big drinker either...probably first coffee drink in years, literally.

Tell me about it: I've had one cup of coffee my entire life... And it was awful.

I'll stick with o-cha, thank you very much. :victory:

Haha...I feel ya...coffee is cool and all but some people guzzle that ish like I used to guzzle down sodas....like it's going out of style.

Urth Caffe is super famous for their coffee so I wanted to try it at least once. I confess I like the Green Tea Latte a bit better and I know it has less caffeine in it so I like the idea of it a bit better.

I will say this you would probably like their Matcha Green Tea Latte or Matcha Green Tea Espresso drink!

Maybe... But they sound like trendy drinks... I'm too old school. :beaten:

Hehe. Obviously the healthiest is going old school. Hot water and tea.

Yup, though I've never had the tea from a tea ceremony, the way the froth it up with a bamboo whisk... Looks fascinating.

That's Matcha Green Tea powder they use. I had it prepared like that only twice. Not a tea ceremony but prepared the same way nonetheless.

Most recently, last October when I went to Kyoto.

The only other time I had it was at Urasawa in Beverly Hills, back in September 2008.
