Cucumber is better than lettuce on a BLT.
Cost per person, $5.10 8 oz of bacon per person.

Simple, effective and delicious. What bread did you use?
This was some kind of sunflower honey bread we got and stuck in the freezer last year. I’m not picky about my BLT bread as long as it’s crunchy.
Excuse me
A BCT
Not a BLT
Almost anything is better than lettuce on a BLT. In my house, the L stands for leaf. Often its arugala (aka rocket), sometimes a power green blend, honestly whatever I have. I’ll have to try cucumber though.
Those fries look like they needed more frying.
That’s what I was thinking, but could be home cut from a potato that isn’t necessarily used for fries. I’m sure I made some in the past like that and they were fine, except for the part where I cut them by hand so they didn’t have great shape lol
Sir, it looks like it needs more mayo.
They were a bag of frozen shoestring fries at a price so low I had to try them. The instructions on the bag only had one method of preparation listed which was baking in the oven at 425 for 12 minutes and rotating halfway through. I thought that was highly insufficient but I was determined to follow the Instructions in case they knew something I didn’t. I also did a small amount in an air fryer for 6 minutes.
Both methods turned out exactly the same. How does that bag not have a deep fry method?
Anyway they sucked. They are also small. Like no individual was longer than 3 inches / 7 cm. Pretty sure that the only effective way to eat them is with a fork. And I should do a little pre cook and then give them a toss in oil before finishing it. Or deep fry.
See my other reply for what went on with these fries
Yeah but no one knows what a BCT is.
Hmmm yea 12minutes is like half of what I do mine these days in air fryer, so defo not enough. Whoever manufacturers those doesn’t have a clue.
We do!
Are we nobody?
I was pretty sure the manufacturer they were clueless when I saw them priced at $1.49 at the most expensive tiny grocery store in town.
I can’t answer that. That’s between you and your therapist or prompt designer.
you cannot just rock up in here and say cucumber is better than lettuce on a BLT, one of the world’s documented essential sandwiches.
you can say you prefer it, you can encourage people to try it, you cannot say it is empirical fact that it is better no ok 👉 out!!
I have a prompt designer? Man, I should fire that asshole. Look at the shit he makes me write.
I do want to try it now. Sliced thin would probably be quite good. But lettuce will still be better, I prefer arugula for the flavor.
Maybe some couples counseling would help?
