How does that make it easier? Now there are four lovely plastic dishes to handle instead of two, so simple. Unrelated to whatever they're trying to 'fix' there, that is the dryest looking rice I've seen in a while.

Trader Joe's doesn't really cater to people who buy in bulk. Their target customer is a college student or young adult in a tiny apartment who's only buying enough for one or two meals at a time. The bigger grocery stores, at least here in California, all have discounts when you buy by the dozen/half dozen.

This lifehack is venerable enough that it's mentioned in the Bible (to emphasize the fact that the wine Jesus made from water was real top-shelf stuff and not the sort of half-assed plonk that a lesser deity's kid would conjure up).

There are plates in the picture, so I guess this is a hack for the three people on earth who make terrible reheated tv dinners, but then upend them onto a plate for serving. Cutting the various containers apart would make it easier to upend each individually, so they look nice on the plate.

Speaking as a person who has done so, yes, yes they do. Saves you a chunk of change too (about ten bucks). It's not actually 2 dollars anymore in most places (it's been 3 for a few years). Usually they have a massive stack of 12 bottle cases behind the registers. A lot of local cheapo restaurants around here buy it by the case as their house wine.

Tiggum posted:I feel like this is maybe a location-specific thing, because here in Australia you can buy perfectly good wine for $5 or less for a bottle, but I guess in some places cheap wine isn't a thing? Nobody would buy "cooking wine" here because every supermarket has cheap wine you can buy to drink, and there's no "wine that's too poo poo to drink that you can buy under-aged" because that's ridiculous. One of the best things about living 15 minutes from the heart of the Hunter Valley Vineyards is this, there's always someone offering a deal on cleanskins for <$5. Also, Australia, home of the goon bag.

I'd like to propose a "Soda Hack". Want to add your favorite fruit flavors to your coke? Buy some soda stream soda syrup and add a splash of that to your favorite cola.

Fact of the matter is most people can't tell the difference between a 100.00 bottle and a 10.00 bottle. Just copy the expensive label and paste that poo poo on. Wow everyone with the perception of having spent thousands of dollars getting them drunk on rotten grape juice.

This one's good if you want to trick people into thinking you have rare and exotic jewelry. It's similar to this:  quote:Use a brown paper bag, you weirdos. That's for the homeless.

I'm assuming they mean in your socks in the DRAWER, not the socks as you are currently wearing them, same with the shoes. If that were the case the conversation would go like this: "Give me your wallet or I'll kill you!" "I can't, it's in my shoes." "It's in your what? I'd NEVER have thought to look there!" *kills you* edit: But then again, I'm sure people actively breaking into your house will already think about searching through the house they are burglarizing so it's a moot point either way.

Instead of going to the beach, stay at home and watch The Beach instead. At a real beach, you can't walk around in your undies, drink cooking wine out of a glass bottle, or see Leonardo DiCaprio get really stoned #lifehax
