Gah!!

I have another time saver. Marie Callender''s frozen Roasted Turkey Breast and Stuffing. Got everything but the biscuits. You know what? Perfect for a person who will be alone, and prefers it that way.

for myself. I'm invited to my sisters but usually duck it. I don't get along with some MAGAt relatives.

I buy two turkeys and do another in June so I have turkey dinners, sandwiches and soup year around.

I can foresee a 3 D printer loaded with protein, carbs and fats, flavorings injected as the items print, that will produce holiday dinners to personal preferences. There will be no more fights over which animal is served and every kid who wants one can get a drumstick. The only things left to fight over will be politics and which football game is on the tube.

Until then, I suppose all the non cooks out there will buy MREs or go to restaurants.

because there are a few pilot programs out there printing tasteless but nutritious food. Eventually they might get around to duplicating flavors and colors. Right now, it's just shapes.

So i might not be that far in the future. We have to avoid blowing ourselves up, thought.

(and of course some of us are ornery enough tht we'll insist on cooking)

Hey, why not?

It's not like it's real cheese. It would never melt. It would be like fluff on turkey, which could be a southern thing if we pitched it right.
