    I’ll never understand how they can manage to make these pre-mixed liquor drinks so weak, yet they taste so strong. 4.5% is less alcohol than many beers. Are they just putting a teaspoon of liquor in these things and using artifical flavor to make it taste like vodka?

    A good mixed drink should be about 30% liquor IMO. Your average liquor has an ABV of 40%, so unless my math is wrong, at a 30:70 ratio we should be in the 12% territory, not 4.5.












  • Damn, you can get an entire large pizza for $10 at Costco. Granted, your only options are pepperoni or cheese, and the quality isn’t the best (far from the worst, though), but it’ll feed 1-3 people.

    Still, I miss the days when you could a large pizza with unlimited toppings at various chain restaurants for $10. But that was over 10 years ago.


  • Truth. Heart disease wasn’t nearly as prevalent back when we cooked everything with lard. And then Crisco came along, started producing that overprocessed “vegetable oil” garbage, marketed it (and continue to market it) as “healthy”, and people actually fell for their BS. Hell, judging by the amount of downvotes you got, half the public still believes this lie.
