The "Green Monster" in Birmingham...

[luv2cook]

While "inspecting" the test kitchens on our tour, we happened upon a can of..........you just won't believe........you better sit down-well, okay, you are sitting.......
Okay. We'll tell you:

KRAFT GRATED PARMESAN CHEESE IN A CAN!!! (2)

Can you believe? Well, it gets worse!

FRANZIA (WINE IN A BOX.)

IOHO (in our humble opinion) Lynn B, SusieO and I think the green can takes the cake (italian creme, Lynn B says) <snicker>


as a side note, SusieO has incriminating photos that we will hold for ransom...unless our demands are met http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

Oh, hush! Get them using the good stuff for every test and we may not be able to afford our subscriptions -- or find the recipes through all the ads. http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/wink.gif

Look at it this way, they save time and money, wine in a box won't go bad as quickly for the bits they use here and there in recipes, and if they test a recipe and get good enough results with the ordinary, imagine how happy we'll be with the extraordinary!

Can anyone tell I'm not accepting complaints today?

Oh my word! The test kitchens have what! Never mind ransom pictures....kidnap that darn green monster and don't leave a ransom note! Shame, shame to test kitchens! (*waving my spatular at them*) http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

I can maybe understand the wine in a box for the reasons Beth gave, but I dont go for the green can!!!!!

Oh gosh I laughed so hard there's tears streaming down as I was telling DH of the updates of CL trip and finding of the green can. He asked what there was mold? I explained it was "the green can cheese". He just said "Oh this must make your day a good laugh early in the morning".
Gosh guys wish I was there.
Seems you guys enjoyed good food and the July issue http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif Wow!
Keep having fun and keep us posted
