His parents were going to cater from there but it didn't happen. Knickerbocker and Bushwick are a unique blend of Hipsters and Hispanics. Fewer Puerto Ricans than before but lots of Mexicans and Central Americans. I was on Hart St and Knickerbocker and noticed a tall slender white female. I don't think she was flattered by my attention. Few franchises. Starbucks finally opened on Myrtle and Knickerbocker. Lots of construction on the M. Metal sheets underneath the structure.

Yes, once in a while. Slow pokey ride to Fulton St. Going home at midnight was a trip. Going thru some of the worst neighborhoods in the city, I'd ride in the conductor car. He'd lock himself in until he had to leave to open the other side. Often I'd ride in a train with mixed R16 & R27s. Other than that I'd take the Q11 Woodhaven Blvd Green bus to Woodhaven & Queens Blvd. to switch to the IND to 74th St & change for the #7 That was even slower

Them along with Queens, Steinway, Triboro, & Jamaica Buses being the private bus companies that ran in Queens and parts of Brooklyn & Nassau counties before the MTA took them over. As a kid I'd look at their license plates and they always read "Fran-Bus" not knowing then what the "Fran" meant. Later to learn it meant Franchised.

I went to a small Piggly Wiggly. We have jugs of tallow and lard And, for all of your needs, a can of duck fat. Looks like a whipped cream spray can for those romantic evenings. I guarantee I can find it in those stores that advertise plastic jugs of pigs blood too.

Yet they sell lard and tallow. The Duck Fat mimics luch's claim as well, "keto & paleo". Now if only Winn Dixie would get itself together.

There was no lard to be found at the Shop Rite in New Paltz, New York - I even asked someone stocking shelves and one of the cashiers. I was over in Kingston to look at the Catskill Mountain Railway train and to attend the Model Train and Railroad Show™ and then headed over to SUNY New Paltz to watch them get hammered by Montclair State lacrosse. As an aside, as I drove through New Paltz not far from the campus there was a pro-Palestinian demonstration going on by what appeared to be the student body holding signs and bullhorns and singing songs. ™ I saw the train in layup at Kingston Plaza but for some reason my dates for the show were wrong. The exhibit is scheduled for this weekend but I'll be out in Denver and Vancouver.

By now I'm down to an average of maybe 10 grams of added sugar per day (a can of soda is 40 grams). It took me about 5 years to stop craving a cold can of Coca-Cola. Then another 5 to stop craving a daily half chocolate bar (about 25 grams). But my body became increasingly adept with age at converting sugar to cholesterol, so it was sadly necessary.

Some kosher markets sell it, but most don't. No regular supermarkets sell schmaltz. A lot of the kosher markets in Queens don't carry it, apparently because a significant percentage of the Jewish population is Russian or Bukharian, and it's not their tradition. It's more of an Askenazi or "European Jewish" food. No one sells lamb fat. One interesting thing about kosher markets is the abundance of cottonseed and sunflower oil. They even have a kosher version under the name Geffen.

No exception. When these various fad diets work, it’s because people are watching what they eat so they end up eating fewer calories. Those other effects are because being overweight has many comorbidities. It’s why they keep finding so many positive side effects from Ozempic; it’s just the health benefits of not being fat.

I find it odd that the trendy grass-fed butcher shops are in hipster neighborhoods. One would think they wouldn't care for or support such stores. The Left tends to be vegan. But the hipster neighborhoods support fancy butcher shops. $10/lb grass-fed beef. $16/lb sausage $5 12 ounces leaf lard $7.50 1/2 gallon VAT pasteurized milk.
