No Spoons Allowed

Hi My People.

I’m back. You’re so happy right?!

Sorry it’s taken me a whole week to post. In all honestly, I just didn’t have anything to post about. But now I do.

I want to talk about spoons and the role they play in the act of eating chili. I don’t think that they should have a role at all. Don’t get me wrong, I think spoons make wonderful tools for getting the chili into your bowl, but the job stops there. Chili needs to be eaten with bread. Not bread on the side, I mean replace the spoon with a great piece of bread.

Yes, there are clearly some obvious issues with this method. If the bread bends how do you get the chili to your mouth. If the bread gets soggy, how do you avoid dripping everything down the front of your shirt? Normally, I would say lightly toast the bread so that it’s firm but not crumbly. Well, nothing about life is normal for me anymore. So there had to be a Plan B.

Meet Plan B.

Lakeview Bakery’s Brown Rice Red is the perfect solution. It’s firm so no bending under the weight of the good stuff. It’s dense so no soggy mess down the front of your shirt. And it doesn’t really have any sort of distinct taste, so it won’t interfere with the awesomeness that is your chili. And just think – that’s one less dish you need to wash.

Now, I will say this: I wouldn’t say that it makes the best sandwich bread – for all the reasons it makes a great chili bread. In the grand scheme of things, I don’t really think this is a case of needing to have your cake and eat it to.
