$24.95 divided by 80 hours is $.311875 per hour so this will be far better value per hour than actual food.
Except, of course, nutrition.
But with all the BB diet-specific articles lately, I’m not sure what the BB writers are eating anymore so maybe the candle is a good option.

That is $.311875 per hour that I’ll be saving not pretending to eat Chinese food, though I will continue wishing that I were doing so.

The very first time I cooked with sesame oil, I was amazed. “Chinese food! It smells like Chinese food!”

Cut a thin slice of fresh ginger. Toss in a pot of gently boiling water. Or use some cinnamon stick. Or both.

Each hour that I spend smelling Chinese food increases the chances that I will order Chinese food, so the economics of this candle don’t work.

This will really help with getting the cathartic crying started after the apocalypse.
Though if any restaurants are likely to survive an apocalypse, it will likely be Chinese takeout.

I LIKE MSG! I used to eat it raw as a kid (yes, I was weird). It’s good to know now that MSG is not as problematic as has been thought.
