@alice Years ago my lovely bride made mashed potatoes for dinner. "We ran out of milk so I tried something different..." PSA - French vanilla creamer is *not* a good substitute for milk in mashed potatoes. Thought my younger boy was going to hurl.
And this is why I do the cooking in our house.@JamesMDonohoe @alice One word:
Butter
Two words:
MORE butter.
9 words:
There is no such thing as too much butter.

@rozeboosje My lovely bride is a Georgia peach so being from the south I would have assumed butter was her default choice (second only to deep frying everything in sight), but alas, no.

@alice Reminds me of this lol.
@theorangetheme @alice the funny thing to me, a person with the same (thankfully mild) allergies, is there are some really good commercial substitutes for egg nog now. They use gums for thickened and other industrial scale modifications it is not worth attempting at home. Just go buy it once a year like everybody else. I put it in my coffee.

"I didn't have heavy cream, so I substituted mayo. It tasted weird."

"This recipe looks so good, but I didn't try it because I'm allergic to peanuts."

@alice
I used have a food website and this is why I stopped reading/replying to the comments people posted on my recipes.

Related but not...
Dipshits that leave a one star review and say "I bought the wrong size."
I love the reviews on eham.net. not only do the allow a star rating and text, but they also ask how long you've owned the item.
I hate reviews that say "I just got my snaffleblarger and haven't opened the packaging but I LOVE IT!"

And this is why I do the cooking in our house.@JamesMDonohoe @alice years ago I moved into a new flat and invited my then girlfriend, now wife round for dinner. Realised at the last minute that I didnβt have a potato masher, but decided that I could simply use a food processor instead. Thatβs how we discovered the difference between purΓ©e and mash. She will never let me forget serving her βpotato custardβ

There was a post that abadidea put up yesterday that I think pairs nicely with this - especially the third one, where there's no earthly reason to leave a review lol

@alice i saw a fondue recipe review where they substituted the gruyere and emmenthal with velveeta and then complained that it was not a good recipe
