Yeah, raw mushrooms are very different from cooked mushrooms.

Yeah you can see the steam escaping when they lift the cheese. It’s that huge mess of onions and peppers. I really can’t tell if Luis Dejesus was being sarcastic. His other reviews are home depot, mcdonald’s, burger king, and popeyes. I think he is being straight.

My friend goes there once a week, says their regular slices are crispy and good.

I have a friend who build one. She said it wasn’t that expensive. She did however have free labor from a teen aged son. I’ve also seen some plans for a pizza oven based on a modified rocket stove that was supposed to take fewer fire bricks and thus be cheaper. It’s lower on my list than a good permanent BBQ/smoker set up but I wouldn’t say no if I had the space to do it.

A real coal fired pizza oven can get to 800 degrees Fahrenheit. 500 is gas oven hot. Waste of money, that. Use your indoor oven if you want 500.

2987

I bought one of these for a couple hundred bucks on sale.

It works surprisingly well and can get to around 700 Fahrenheit if it isn’t cold and windy out using your standard BBQ propane tank. I did burn myself real good once when I accidentally touched the side. Turns out a really nice Italian style margherita in 5 minutes. I just use premade dough from Whole Foods or Trader Joes.

Other manufacturers have fancier and much pricier small/portable type high temp ovens, but I’m happy with this one.

2988

And that’s the point. If your new oven is the same temp as your kitchen oven, you wasted your money. Unless you just wanted an outdoor pizza oven, then you go girl. :)

2989

Its not just time. The crust just don’t come out the same (e.g., with the nice leopard spots) in a lower temperature oven, even if you don’t mind waiting longer.

Preaching to the choir, brother. I just loved going to a coal fired pizza place, ordering, and getting a perfect bubbly, spotty pizza before I finished my first drink.

OTOH the guys baking them were always looking harassed and sweaty. Much turnover. I mean pizzas, not bakers. :)

2991

I was baking pizzas at home and what I just did was cook the crust 4-5 mins first, then took it out to put the sauce. That makes it acceptably crunchy.

I don’t have any fancy pizza stone or anything.

2992

We got an Ooni Koda 16 last summer and our pizza game has never been better. The stone can get up to 800 degrees and can bust out a Neapolitan style pizza in around 90 seconds. There’s a flame adjustment hack that can lower the temps to do a more NY style.

In researching this more, apparently Dunkin Donuts makes a caffeinated cereal too.

2995

It seems all the donut chains are doing this. In Canada, you can get this:

2996

The picture on the box just makes it look like Honey Nut Cheerios. I wonder if that’s what it tastes like too?

(The Dunkin and Tim Horton’s ones look like Cocoa Puffs).

2997

The whole thing with donuts is the texture, which presumably this cereal doesn’t have. Seems completely pointless.

2998

Yeah the Krispy Kreme one probably just tastes like crunchy donut glaze. Same with Tim Hortons (but chocolate). And the Dunkin ones are based off their coffee drinks (and with caffeine).

2999

Ew, zero sugar.

3000

Caffeine and alcohol. What could go wrong?

3001

Didn’t they already have a drink like this that was banned?

Four Loko?

3002

That’s what I was thinking of. Thanks. If I’m not mistaken they had to remove the caffeine. So how long will this new crap last?
