You're never gonna get me to not consume sugar. Life's too short to avoid things in moderation.

That's why I always buy the Simply Heinz, made with sugar and no HFCS.

They most definitely do, they use a clamshell flat top that cooks both sides at once.

Just turn the music up

Which fast food places are not using a flat top for burgers? Just Burger King?

Ice cream has to be at least 10% butterfat and 20% milk solids according to the FDA.

DQ soft serve is 5% butterfat so would not legally qualify as ice cream, though it would qualify as low fat ice cream.

I do believe that most soft serve is a similar fat percentage, and also has much more air per volume than traditional ice cream.

Also, I must say as an ice cream aficionado, I do love me some soft serve and I would never disparage it by calling it "not real ice cream."

Sump?

Definitely depends where you are. Lots of big cities, regions, or states will tend to identify as from those places first. Here in Chicago people generally identify as Chicagoan and you'll see many more Chicago flags than American flags. But that's also in part because our flag is the best flag ever.

What do you suggest instead?

Ohhh, POOP!

I think they have alien invasion plans.

FRE SHA VOCA DO

Contrary to popular belief, these don't recycle the same length of cloth over and over. It goes from end to end l.

And yes, I know the solution would be "cook at home!" But that also wastes a lot of freshwater from dish washing

I don't think this is a good point. Just by living you're going to be using resources of some kind, it's simply unavoidable. I would worry less about trying to consume zero resources and more about particularly harmful things, like single-use plastics. Especially since fresh water is not an issue in some places, like where I am.

Honestly, if you're going to a table service restaurant, it might be even better than eating at home. You're not going to get much plastic waste from single use items like you would with fast food, and because of the scale of the operation I could believe that restaurants are creating less waste per meal than individuals cooking at home. Think of a case of chicken breast versus individually packaged ones and the amount of plastic each uses, for example.

Life's too short to fight about arbitrary rules of food combinations my dude. Za and let za I always say.

Whatever you want on food belongs on food!

I agree that a lot of the dialogue is bad. I don't think this is a good example though. Quite the opposite, it's a great scene. Anakin apologizes sincerely, effectively conveys his emotions and why he's feeling the way he is, then both men tell each other how much they value their friendship. It's some great emotional maturity and honesty.

I think we could use more dialogue like this in movies and the real world, maybe we don't have enough of it and that's why it comes off as "cringey" to some.

Anakin was shown defying the Council's orders to go save Obi-Wan in AOTC. Then in ROTS he pushes back on Palpatine to again save Obi-Wan when the ship is going down.

I'm curious what kind of actions you would have shown or why that dialogue is cringey?

Their last interaction before Anakin's fall:

ANAKIN: Master, I've disappointed you. I have not been very appreciative of your training . . . I have been arrogant and I apologize . . . I've just been so frustrated with the Council. Your friendship means everything to me.

OBI-WAN: You are strong and wise, Anakin, and I am very proud of you. I have trained you since you were a small boy. I have taught you everything I know. And you have become a far greater Jedi than I could ever hope to be, and you have saved my life more times than I can remember. But be patient, Anakin. It won't be long before the Council makes you a Jedi Master.

OBI-WAN starts down the ramp, then turns back.

OBI-WAN: (continuing) Don't worry. I have enough clones with me to take three systems the size of Utapau. I think I'll be able to handle the situation . . . even without your help.

ANAKIN: Well, there's always a first time.

OBI-WAN laughs.

They talk for a few more minutes before ANAKIN watches OBI-WAN depart.

ANAKIN: Obi-Wan, may the Force be with you.

OBI-WAN: Good-bye, old friend. May the Force be with you.
