Crock-pots suck. I made that pretty clear when I called them "the most despicable appliance in culinary history," and I stand by the sentiment today. Thing is, I received some significant blowback for that post. You crock-pot clingers just couldn't accept that your beloved plug-and-go appliance might actually make you a bad person. Which it [...]
You have a craving only a fried chicken sandwich can satisfy. To your left sits a Popeyes. Just beside it is a Chick-Fil-A. Either restaurant will satisfy your need. But which one does it better?

Then, I throw in [...]
