Ketchup slices: shaped like cheese singles but look like fruit leather

Nope; Wander Over Yonder.

It’s a running gag:

To add to @Melz2’s reply, Wander was developed by the same pair who were the creative minds behind Foster’s (Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust), so the similarity is not merely coincidental. Wander is also fantastic (in fact, it was literally too good) and I heartily recommend it.

That, I didn’t know.

:slight_smile:

It really is; I was so surprised, because it aired on Disney XD and I have a serious grudge against that company in general.

Right?

Mustard’s too tart by itself, and mayo can be bland without some ‘kick.’

It depends. Driving some moisture off when cooking things can concentrate flavors. As with dry heat. Roasting or grilling. It also carmelizes and browns thing (maillard reaction). Which brings a lot of additional flavor. But you don’t want that with everything. And there’s far more too it than that. A steak well done is less flavorful than a steak medium rare because there is less moisture. Nothing to carry all that flavor around, and a fair bit of the flavor is in the fat and juices you’ve chased off. Situation where you want the surface dried out and browned but not much else. “Dried out” to the point of this stuff, usually doesn’t go with “more flavorful”. Save things like potato chips, beef jerky. I can’t imagine this stuff is pleasant textually. And dehydrating it to that point will likely make it taste like that other heavily cooked down tomato product you don’t want to put in your mouth straight up: Tomato paste.

I believe that’s for slicing hard boiled eggs. I’m shocked it works on tomatoes. That skin can be tricky to get through without smashing the things. And egg slicers are not sharp. My grandmother uses a model that uses strings. The strings break. She replaces them with dental floss or fishing line.

Packaged mayo yeah. Japanese mayo is bad ass. Home made is wonderful. But I don’t often feel like making it. And Japanese mayo is hard to find without an Asian market nearby.

So I switched to vegan mayo. Most of it is way better than your average store bought. Not quite as good as Japanese but way closer to home made than any of the regular ones on the shelf. Its the weirdest thing.

I get you, if no one else does.

Sun dried tomatoes can be good on sandwiches.

Water can be thirst quenching but dried water not so much.

I can see how you’d think that is a wire cutter; my apologies for not taking the photo from a better angle in the first place. :blush: Here you can see the blades are serrated on one side, and do go through tomatoes in a heartbeat.

Mmm … skin …

But of course …

Powdered water is so-o retro “1960s McDonalds milkshake.”

Have you considered a side-line in online estate sales? Or just estate sales in general? Other People’s Junk is big business. (And seriously, if you ever come across someone trashing something that looks like this, grab it and ping me. https://goo.gl/images/Z46V9K )

Cool machines, I knew they existed of course but hadn’t ever seen one. Glad I clicked on your link :slight_smile: Someone around here had one, I have a pair of socks that someone bought me at a craft show, that were knit on it.

And…we are off topic :slight_smile: I guess there’s just so much that can be said about slices of ketchup. Or anything here, really, without relating to everything else in the world anyway :slightly_smiling_face:
