Sweet and Salty

Food without salt is hopelessly boring. Life without sweetness is life without pleasure. To eat something sweet and salty is a complicated taste sensation. I believe that at the apex of all culinary sophistication lies the tasty conundrum of a sweet and salty life...

Improve crap yogurt packages...

I don't understand why they don't improve yogurt packages so that they don't splash when you open them. Yogurt that is sold in a small plastic container and sealed with paper at the top will splash on you unless you unseal it very very slowly. At the very least, there should be a warning written on the seal telling us to hold the yogurt facing the opposite direction before we open it.

I've opened yogurt packages from many different companies as a test at normal speed and the results were the same. Drops of yogurt splash all over. I think it is time a patent is created for a yogurt package that doesn't splash. It's annoying and it doesn't make sense to me why companies don't improve it...

If a light food product you buy in the supermarket means a product with less calories, then you can turn every food into light food by adding water to it. Most calorie measurements in food are based on samples of 100 grams, so if you add water the 100 grams become 200 but the calories stay the same or are less as percentage of the overall intake

Products I can think of this can apply are alcohol, beer, wine, yogurt, soups, milk shakes, ice cream, coke etc

The taste might be diluted but will still be the same. If you turn normal food products into light ones this way, you will also be saving money as light products are usually more expensive compared to the original ones!
