Go for a walk. It works way better. And far less aggravating.

I live in the city. Walking here aggravates me on a daily basis and starting up arguments over pineapple pizza with randos on the street never ends up being nearly as entertaining as it is here.

"HEY! I'm WALKING here! What's wrong with you!? Put some pineapple on your pizza!"

No argument here; the bread was delicious too. I know a lot of delis will sort of phone in the bread, because a lot of customers don't pay close attention to it. "I'm not here for the bread," they probably tell themselves, "I'm only interested in meat and cheese. And maybe a half-gallon of that mayonnaise that people in the Pacific Northwest like to slather on everything." But this place--this little unassuming Hawaiian food truck in Southeast Portland--didn't phone anything in. Their sandwich buns reminded me of those Hawaiian rolls that used to be popular in the 80s, chewy soft and yeasty with just a hint of sweetness, brushed with butter and lightly toasted...

Dangit. Now I'm hungry and lunch is FOUR HOURS away.

You mean it's the deli who is tracking me wherever I go and not the government?!

What was it that Mama Snarf always used to say to me? "Snarf, you illegitimate halfwit. Get yer Mama her Night Train

Yes, but in the "I didn't comment" thread, pineapple on pizza was being used as a code for things the moderators didn't want us to talk about. And the fact that the code wasn't used very well and there was too much understanding made the mods feel the old thread wasn't helping people get along on the forum. Thus that thread was shut down and we're now here.

The real Pizza Gate!

This is the first time I've seen the word "cromulent". It seems to be close to the Swedish word "lagom".

This is what Chat GPT had to say on the subject:

While "lagom" and "cromulent" may seem similar in suggesting adequacy or appropriateness, "lagom" is a real word deeply rooted in Swedish culture emphasizing balance, whereas "cromulent" is a playful, made-up word from "The Simpsons" used to humorously suggest something is acceptable.

I love PUDC. I grew up on it. Cooked pineapple is lovely. But you don't eat it warm. I mean, who eats ANY cake warm?

Dude. You are just wrong here.

Hot PUDC is yummy. Also good done with apple. Or banana rum cakes. Never minding all sorts of steam cakes.

I love PUDC. I grew up on it. Cooked pineapple is lovely. But you don't eat it warm. I mean, who eats ANY cake warm?

America's Test Kitchen, on PUDC, says, "Serve warm or at room temperature."

Betty Crocker says, "Serve cake warm or cool."

Fannie Farmer says, "Let cool in the pan 10 minutes, then turn out onto a place, fruit side up. Serve with whipped cream if you wish."

Better Homes & Gardens says, "Serve warm."

New York Times Cooking says, "Serve warm or at room temperature."

Bon Appetite, "Serve warm or at room temperature."

My copy of the Joy of Cooking has disintegrated from use, But I expect it'd say much the same.

So, lots of folks eat it warm.

Monsters, all.

Monsters, all.

People seeking the fine temperature contrast of PUDC and ice cream are not monsters. It is a perfectly cromulent sensory experience to desire.
