      from a culinary perspective, margarine is a lot better for pastries. I dont know about the usa, but it is still very much wildly used in Europe in many, many high class bakeries. Are you saying that because its unhealthy? Tough shit. Thats really ironic coming from an american. Probably 90% of american food is unhealthy lol. Whats a little margarine next to your 600 calorie diabetes inducing muffins, donuts? Or the mountain dew with 46 grams of sugar? Its nothing. Almost everything is fine to eat if you do it with control, and live a balanced life.

      ​​@Casey Morris exactly. Americans have no idea the amount of poison they knowingly and happily eat. They've been eating cancer causing food coloring such as yellow 5 blue 3 etc ( which only now In 2023 got found out and banned in some candies), a good 20 years in the making. The laws in america are also retarded. For example, super expensive stores such as wholefoods or traitor joes sell fake organic stuff. Say ketchup is organic, has 5 ingredients. Out of the 5 vinegar can be organic, rest is not. American law allows this to be called now organic.
      In Europe this is banned, because the EU cares about people. Cancer causing food coloring also banned.
      Americans think Hershey's are the best lol. Chocolate made with water 😂 they got no idea how good a swiss or German chocolate is made with alpen milk. Oh, and those same Hershey mershy chocolate? They've found guess what? Cancer causing metals in them.
      I've carefully read and checked most cereals in the isle in america, and found that most of them had ingredients that are connected with hyperactivity with children
      The American " cheese"? That yellow plastic thing? Yeah, it's banned in my country in Europe because it doesn't have enough milk content to be called cheese.
      Any kind of bread you buy in america from Italian stores to target are sweet. Like cake. Oh, and they contain something called " ready sponge" which is a filler that basically makes the bread rise much faster than yeast, again, cancer causing.
      So many more bullshit you wouldn't believe it. They knowingly and happily poison themselves. Ignorant cucks.

      Yes, my family’s first microwave in the 70’s had a “DING!” sound. I remember it being considerably smaller than the ones we have today - it sat on it’s own stand. It had 2 dials iirc, and was very quant looking. You could watch one of the dials (that was set for time) slowly turn back to its starting point as the microwave cooked, like you can an old school kitchen timer (which coincidentally also had that kind of “DING!” when done!).
