How Are We Coping with 2020? With Food, Obviously.

Oh, boy…

So, 2020 has been completely insane and none of us have known what to do with ourselves. That’s a well-established fact. That will be the subheading to the chapter about this year in history books, or history…holograms, or whatever the hell we have in the future. One of my all-time favorite expressions of what this has been like came from @KevinFarzard on Twitter who said:

Kevin’s theory was bolstered by a whole lot of replies to a thread started later by Franklin Leonard, in which he asked what purchases had been making a difference in people’s lives recently.

There were lots of answers; home improvement stuff, comforts, entertainment, pet adoption, and, oh yeah, food. What do you do when you’re stuck at home bored and anxious? You eat. And you find new, interesting methods of eating that maybe you haven’t tried before. That’s just the American way.

10. Fry me to the moon

Two words so beautiful have rarely been paired.

9. Let’s get this bread

Unsliced bread is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

8. Mixin’ it up

Weird hill to die on, but OK.

7. We all scream

Anything can be alcohol if you try hard enough.

6. Stock up

“Rice is great if you’re really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something.” – Mitch Hedberg

5. Eggcellent idea

Live that farm to table life.

4. Good old fashioned booze

I’m deservin’ a bourbon.

3. Lettuce feast

I’m a little disappointed to learn that an “AeroGarden” isn’t like, flowers in the sky.

2. Sugar and spice and everything nice

I’ll put this on my list of things to try to salvage my mental health.

1. Grill baby grill

OK but the real question is, which one of those stove burners is your favorite?

Personally I’ve been trying out a lot of this great culinary tradition called “ordering delivery.” What it lacks in nutritional value, it makes up for in being overpriced.
I…may need to rethink this strategy.

Have you been trying out any new cooking adventures?

Funny Reasons Why Kids Didn’t Want Their Food

Children. You can’t live with them and you CERTAINLY can’t live without them. It’s the law!

Well, until they’re like 18 or something. And even then they might stick around.

So… can we be honest. Kids are more spoiled today than they’ve ever been, and these Instagram posts prove it. Because there’s NO way my kid (who doesn’t exist) would ever be able to act like this.

But hey, let’s judge these parents! That’s fun!

1. Like, seriously, just untwist them.

It’s not even that hard.

2. OK, we can see how this would be confusing.

Totally makes sense.

3. Eggs must be uniform.

From now on. Get to work chickens!

4. She’s got a point.

I mean, just look at that devious smirk.

https://www.instagram.com/p/3Zy—v0Ed/

5. Million-dollar idea right here.

Spicy grapes!

6. Look, Ma, it just tastes better this way OK?

I’m not surprised you don’t understand.

7. You’re an animal!

Who puts lotion on carrots?!

8. We can see the resemblance.

It’s uncanny now that you mention it.

9. This makes perfect sense.

I wouldn’t want to eat kitty cats, either, Mom.

10. Get this kid some LSAT prep books, baby!

We’ve got some serious logic going on here.

11. Hmm. Who’s gonna tell her?

Not me!

12. This kid might be onto something.

Christmas, upgraded!

13. Circles = far superior to squares.

Everyone knows that, Dad.

Okay, I actually feel a little bit bad about judging those parents. Because how you can deal with these small little people who are so unreasonably dumb?

People say kids are just highly creative? No, they’re not. They’re ignorant and quite stupid.

Get a job, kids! And buy your own food!

What do you think? Should kids have to get jobs when they’re 5 and buy their own food? Let us know in the comments!

Woman’s Life-Changing Cereal Box Storage Trick Is Very Handy

Sometimes, you discover something that makes you say, ‘Huh, why didn’t I know about that sooner?’”

Prepare to have your mind blow, because that’s exactly what’s about to happen with this life-changing cereal storage trick.

Becky Holden McGhee discovered after 40 years that she’s been closing her cereal boxes all wrong (and apparently all of us have?).

Luckily, she shared her new-found knowledge with the internet with some helpful photos and a video. Just check it out yourself:

Had to share this!!!It's only taken me 40 years, but I now know the correct way to close a cereal box.Genius. It takes…

Posted by Becky Holden McGhee on Sunday, 10 May 2020

Here’s exactly how to pull this off at home:

Posted by Becky Holden McGhee on Sunday, 10 May 2020

Um, OK, that’s freaking genius. She’s totally right — it’s super annoying when the cereal boxes just won’t close. Then you inevitably end up with stale cereal down the road.

This trick seems to solve both problems at once!

If you think cereal boxes are bad, don’t even get us started on fitted sheets. Luckily, someone’s figured out how to fold these neatly, too:

And how to properly fold a shirt in just a few seconds:

Or how to fold jeans to save space:

Dang, some people are seriously so creative. How do their brains come up with this stuff? Is it just inherent? A lot of trail and error?

Either way, we’re just glad they share their little tips and tricks with the rest of the world. Thanks, internet!

What’s your biggest storage pet peeve? A cluttered pantry? A mishmash linen closet? A mess under the bed?

People Shared McDonald’s Restaurants That Are in Very Weird Locations

I guess not all McDonald’s restaurants are created equal, huh?
