I make a point of checking many Swiss cheeses when I visit the US. Only from top shops, too. They are never the same. Not gross, but lifeless.

Trump claiming the new Nobel Peace Prize recipient called him to say he really deserved it more is a before unseen, deep, deep level of narcissism. Breaking new ground here.

This is a fascinating discovery. It seems efforts to preserve or promote biodiversity in an agricultural setting actually do work.

This is insane. This festering pile is only getting worse. I can’t wait until the mid-terms.

It’s a failed concept. Most I’ve been to are supremely disorganized with second-rate products. That includes San Jose, Las Vegas, LA, Stockholm, London and Munich. Same level of mediocre everywhere.

It’s a no brainer to me. Imagine, Gallo can take credit for saving the planet. The PR would be invaluable.😉

It goes with the BBQ phenomenon, everyone is a grill master, signature dry rubs, serially over salting steaks, endless best steakhouses in the world lists, etc. Steak is everywhere.

Don’t get me wrong, I love a good steak but it’s all the youthful influencer class seems to be eating these days. Can we get some variety please. And when there is steak, of course, there is cabernet. Boring!!
