Say it with me. “All food is ethnic food.” 👏🏽

[Eater @Eater]

The Momofuku chef recently called the ethnic aisle “the last bastion of racism that you can see in full daylight in retail America” https://t.co/ARAaHm3oU8

I'm here to tell you that @taraobrady's basic great chocolate chip cookies, as discovered via @Food52's Genius Recipe podcast, are the best, fastest cookies that you can get in the oven this week. This version made with half wholemeal/half @durrowmills organic sprouted flour

Help is urgently needed in Pakistan. After a devastating monsoon season, one-third of the country is underwater and more than 1,000 people have been killed. The humanitarian crisis grows by the second, with 33 million impacted. Please give today.

We don't pay enough attention to incel violence. The killers openly talk about being inspired by others in the movement

@artipatel Not if they’re well made, the biggest thing is where the tow box hits your flesh, lest it hits that sweet spot of pain. There is less pressure than expected but some of the low ones can chafe. I’ve worn them for events, and way more supportive than a shoe without the platform.

@fuggirls I will henceforth imagine him as Teacup from the Good Place with Michael doing the honours.

@madlenrene You’ll find it in my newsletter, as mentioned!

[Tara O'Brady @taraobrady]

I published these in my newsletter the other day, and realized I’d never introduced them here. Low-effort (no mixer) oatmeal cookies that taste how we hope trail mix would. Crispy, lacy edges and a tweedy middle; imagine a silk dress peaking beneath a houndstooth coat.

[Tara O'Brady @taraobrady]

@MMacDonald_Tax That makes my day to hear it! Thank you.

Michelin Guide is good for tourism. But ultimately it's an opaque, elitist system that rewards precisely the kind of chef behaviour (abuse, wage theft) that needs to change in the restaurant industry.

The grocery store gave old Easter chocolate out as a Mother’s Day gift … and I’ve come to the startling realization that mini eggs are large-format Smarties.

@hey_jeska Done!

[Tara O'Brady @taraobrady]

@estarLA Truly appropriate.

The discussion of the personhood of a pregnancy is meant to distract from the personhood of the one who needs the abortion.

I've had bap + banchan every day since this conversation, it just put me in the MOOD. TY @Chatelaine for working with At The End Of the Day. And to Diana and Mama Lee for reminder there's always time to reconnect with culture through the ppl we love https://t.co/CHHFXxXvi1

@randolph5of5 @soulphoodie This is the definition of resilience.

If you’re not exploding your butter every time you attempt to melt it in the microwave, can you really say you’re truly living?
