No. We *always* make sure there is a second unopened jar in the pantry. It is something both I and Logan eat a *lot* of. -- nm - Spawn Apr 29, 08:04
Not criticism, but this is exactly my wife and MIL’s soviet mentality. “There’s a shortage? Better get some. Not sure when it might be back.” -- nm - mafic Apr 29, 07:48
The plants closing is causing me angst. I want to run out and buy chicken! - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 06:55 35
- Please don’t go to the grocery store if you don’t need to. More panic buying is just going to make everyone miserable. -- nm - Qale Apr 29, 07:16 4
  - agreed. I did like the direct produce pick up thingie. They put it in my car for me. -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:18 3

      - LOL! pretty darn close to the truth -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:43
- how much chicken do you currently have? (you probably don't need chicken) -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 06:59 28
  - six blister packs of thigh fillets, buried deep in the freezer is probably a frost burnt breast or two -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 29, 11:05
  - 12lbs. So I need to figure out a plan for tomorrow’s meals. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 07:39 1
    - heh-heh... -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 07:45

  - I think 2 breast, 1 pack tenders. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 07:09
  - Is this a poll? 5 breasts frozen and the leftovers from Monday's rotisserie which is going on tomorrow's nachos. -- (edited) - znufrii, silly old man Apr 29, 07:05 5
    - Nacho Rotation: Threat Level - Orange. -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 07:18 1
      - We’ve experimented with leftover chili instead, it’s not as good. -- nm - znufrii, drinking an 18 year-old scotch Apr 29, 07:27
    - Nacho rotation? -- (edited) - sycor Apr 29, 07:07 2
      - Rotisserie chicken on Monday, leftovers get used for nachos on Thursday. Repeat. - znufrii, drinking an 18 year-old scotch Apr 29, 07:12
      - I'm using left over Mexican meatloaf crumbles for today's lunch nachos -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:10

        I'm ridiculously bad at meal planning. I don't know how y'all do this. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 07:21 7
        
        I literally had to start with printing out a monthly calendar and write out what I was going to make each day on a four-week cycle -- (edited) - znufrii, silly old man Apr 29, 07:46 2
        
        Well, I certainly have time for that these days. Maybe I'll try that. - loosilu Apr 29, 07:52 1
        
        Sample week - znufrii, silly old man Apr 29, 08:11
        
        years of dieting and the Keto (off/on) for a year and a half - taught me how to make more than one meal out of a dish. - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:31 3
        
        Here comes my practice, I guess. My biggest problem is thinking of what to make. - loosilu Apr 29, 07:33 2
        
        cooking for one definitely has its own set of challenges. -- nm - znufrii, silly old man Apr 29, 07:48
        
        I google a shit ton of recipes, then youtube how to make stuff. You will work on it. make 1/2 the suggested amount - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:45
        
        I understand this completely. :) -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 07:19 1
        
        :) thanks to sycor too -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:21
    - So YOU'RE the real reason for the chicken shortage. -- nm - bacon Apr 29, 07:10 1
      - heh - stores are full of meat ( chicken included) - I don't know how that is possible. Cause its Texas? local farms? hell if I know. -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:11
    - You do not need chicken. Might need some beef though. - sycor Apr 29, 07:07 1
      - trust me - I don't need that either. -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:12
- I have 5 chicken breasts currently. For 2 people that's 2 meals. I definitely need more chicken. -- nm - sycor Apr 29, 06:59
Not a substitute for PB but I love cookie butter. Biscoff cookie butter is amazing on an English muffin. - sycor Apr 29, 06:53
Make some satay! -- nm - Reagen Apr 29, 06:41 2
- I have never made satay. I think it's time. -- nm - Andie Apr 29, 06:46
- this is the plan. -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 06:42
Nope. As long as you didn't go overboard. We didn't NEED TP. But since it's still so hard to find we bought 1 package just in case. - sycor Apr 29, 06:36 1
- I get at least 1 pkg of TP whenever I can. -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 06:42
I made do with almond butter for a bit. Then we fortunately found some PB. - Dark Callisto Apr 29, 06:35 9
- girls..girls! try the almond butter/coconaut butter mixture -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 07:13 3

    - I dislike coconut or I'd try it. - Dark Callisto Apr 29, 07:58 1
      - no salt? You are a purist! -- nm - Pippy- Bingo Caller to the Stars Apr 29, 08:12
- I like it ok but not "three times the price better" - Reagen Apr 29, 06:40 1
  - Mmm...that sounds good. -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 06:41
- which do you like better? -- nm - Diva Apr 29, 06:37 2
  - Oh, peanut butter easily. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 29, 06:41 1
    - Dave loves the sunflower seed butter you can get at Bulk Barn. I am a PB purist. -- nm - Andie Apr 29, 06:50
