310. SWEET POTATO FRIES

Instead of salt, hit them with a tiiiiny pinch of sugar and cinnamon out of the oil.

312. GOYA REFRIED BEANS

If you are picking up some Old El Paso or some other brand refried beans...STOP. Goya is the one true bean. I don't care what you pick, original, chorizo, chipotle, all are amazing. The chipotle itself is an amazing spicy flavor, and the chorizo goes great on breakfast tacos. Heat up a can, slice up some avocado and put it on top, and you're in for a treat.

313. The Chips & Salsa at Jose Tejas My co-workers & I eat here several times a week, and we'll say "leave the chips" at least once. They come right out of the oil, too hot to handle sometimes, thereby holding the sea salt we invariably shake on them cling nicely. And the salsa is a nice medium level of heat. It grows on you, and if you're not careful, you can eat so much of it you'll be too full to attempt your entree.

314. Steve Raichlen's Chimichurri Sauce I know I invoke the Raichlen way too often, but the man knows how to make barbecue. What can I say? His recipe for chimichurri sauce calls for 8 - count 'em, EIGHT - cloves of garlic and a fuckton of parsley. With just the right mount of red pepper flakes and olive oil thrown in. . . there are few things that can top a steak better.

315. Steve Raichlen's Black Magic Finishing Sauce Not only is this stuff delicious, but it's so fucking easy & practical. You combine 3 types of vinegar with soy sauce and put it in a spray bottle.

That's it. It keeps fucking forever (because it's just VINEGAR & SOY SAUCE), and all you need to do with it is spray it on otherwise un-messed with meat towards the end of the cooking time. No marinating, no pre-rubbing, no injecting. . . perfect for a weeknight grilling session. The man is a fucking genius.

316. Reddi Whip Extra Creamy Is fresh home made whipped cream better? Mmmmm. . . . maybe. But this stuff is so rich and just the right amount of sweet I may never try my hand at whipping the cream myself. The perfect topper for any ice cream sundae.

317. David's Sunflower seeds
I've been sitting at my desk eating out of this bag all week. Salty as hell, and more work than they are food, they're the perfect snack to keep you from eating much worse for you snacks.

318. Pillsbury Simply French Bread

And it's just that, French bread. But it's perfect with spaghetti and since it has ingredients I can actually pronounce, I don't feel as bad when I eat it. Plus, it's a fuck load easier and less time consuming than making my own.

319. Over sized Hershey Kisses

Now, while I am a fan of regular Kisses, no doubt, there is something special about Christmas through Valentine's when you can find a one pound Hershey Kiss, freeze it for a couple hours, then sit down with a cold root beer and a movie while punishing yourself with a huge block of chocolate. SO GOOD.

I wish they did this shit with Reese's PB cups. I'd house like four of those things and then die of a massive blood sugar spike.

320. Hussar Style Pot Roast The recipe's in one of the Uber threads, if you care to peruse. Suffice it to say, it's a slow boiled bottom round roast, with pockets cut into it, said pockets stuffed with a mixture of butter, bread crumbs and grated onion. Particularly if you like onion, it tastes every bit as good as it sounds. Pair it with egg noodles Polonaise & some boiled, buttered carrots, and it's good enough to be one's last meal on earth.
