    While on this subject – my family and I very rarely eat out and it’s been that way since before greedflation hit. I realize that’s not the case or even feasible for everyone. For anyone in a situation where they actually need to eat out (or just really, really want to), start looking at your local sit-down restaurants. Some of them are cheaper to eat at now than to go through a drive through and grab a ‘value’ meal.

      There has to be a recipe for people to make McDonald’s style hash browns at home somewhere. That’s just crazy to pay $3 for something like that.

        They sell them in the frozen section at most grocery stores… Not McD branded or anything, but it’s not like there’s anything remotely special or unique about them.

          Well most folks don’t have a deep fryer at home so how are you gonna bite into it and burn your mouth to hell as a pocket of oil bursts??

              Most potato products air fry at 400 for 12 minutes wonderfully (don’t over crowd). It’s great! There is a difference between brands though, some end up a bit oily after cooking, some don’t. Depends what you like.

              On my list to figure out is tempura and/or wetter things.
