Africa's most popular noodle is here in The USA. Actually, it has been here in Asian markets for decades. Now, it's sold at Costco. That makes it mainstream.
Costco also sells goats. And at a very reasonable price, considering that they are shipping it from Australia. I haven't bought it yet. Not because it's not sustainable to buy Australian goat, when I live in California. But because i just can't eat that much before it spoils.
So that means we are eating Indomie. The #1 noodle in Africa. It must be good, right?
Good or bad, I didn't know. What I did know was that it was very expensive. A lot more than Maruchan. Does being expensive make it good?
The verdict? My verdict is that it's okay. It needed meat. For that price, I probably will not buy it again. I could buy Maruchan, and mix it with soy sauce, sesame oil, chili pepper flakes, or whatever other sauces.
I bought the truck new. I am the original owner. The key fob finally gave up. Shocking how long the original factory battery lasted. And it was a generic brand.
I have bought very expensive jump pacs in the past, which were big, heavy, and had a huge battery. I've bought modern lithium battery devices. I've seen how smaller units were anemic, and just couldn't jump a big engine. I've seen it when the batteries reach the end of service life, and can no longer take a charge. As we speak, I've got three useless bricks that need to be recycled.
Quite possibly, one of the best I've ever owned over the years is the NOCO GB150. This will jump start anything and everything as far as passenger vehicles, and it will keep going all day long. Here is what they don't tell you. It charges with a micro usb cable. You supply the power supply adapter. If you only have a 5 volt 1 amp power adapter, you will be charging this for about 18 hours.
Had some rain yesterday. However, only in the afternoon/evening. Today no rain predicted. So, I won't get wet at church.
Just think if every company made you buy the charger for their items. Wait, EV companies already do that. Never mind. Wonder if Hertz will give me one of the 20k EV's they are getting rid of?
It's ham day. I now have a stack of slices and a mound of chopped ham. In addition to about a gallon of pork stock. The best part is picking the scraps off the bone and the bone marrow.
Since you are the ham expert in the chapter, I have a question for you. I received a can of chopped pork from the food drive this past food drive day. Since pork is ham, why is it not advertised as chopped ham? Is there a difference between chopped ham and chopped pork, or are they the same? I have not opened it to use yet but was just wondering what it is that makes them say chopped pork instead of chopped ham.
I think technically, ham is the leg, butt is the shoulder, bacon is the belly, etc. If it's not from the leg, it's just chopped pork, not chapped ham. I have no idea what SPAM is, or how it fits into labeling laws. Although I'm probably wrong. Maybe it's just marketing. I doubt if the worldwide pig farmers association will file a suit against the cannery who produced your pork product. I just hope that they don't come after me for slander.
That Girl once told me about where she is from, there is no middle class. There are rich people. There are poor people. The difference being that either you hired people to work for you, or you were hired to work. The people who hire other people, lived in nice big houses, where they hired more people to do the work around the house. And that existed at every level of their society. Even in the small villages, the merchant class such as shop owners, restaurateurs, trades people, etc, did not work. If you owned an auto repair shop, you collected profits, and hired mechanics. Then you go home, and you have your housekeeper, cook, gardener, et cetera. You were a boss. You didn't do the work.
If you worked, you were poor. The people who were lucky enough to work in restaurants, were lucky enough to take home scraps which would otherwise be thrown away. Such as the bones leftover from making soup stock. So here is my midnight snack. The leftover ham bones from making a pot of pork stock. Picking off every last bit of meat, gelatinous collagen, and marrow.
Happy Monday Nor-Cal. I will eventually use the chopped pork in a meal with cut green beans and fruit cocktail. However, I have a bunch of other food items I received from the food drive.
To celebrate the holiday, I changed the oil in the truck. I checked my records. Last oil change was March 2022. The same time I installed the Optima battery. 1700 miles of stop and go, short trips. The oil drain plug valve is paying off. Nice and clean. I should have done that to every car, decades ago.
