Dining Out, & Food & Drink, really don’t deal with cooking, only eating. OK YAHOO, get with it please & put a cooking catogory up here.
So for my cooking question, I am soaking lima/butter beans and the skins are pealing off & they look like crap. I have not even cooked them How do I cook dried beans and have them turn out like the ones in the can with the skins still on and not falling apart?

i’m looking to buy a new set of pots and pans and want to get what the restaurants use. whenever i watch a cooking show it seems that they all use the same type. obviously stainless steel and with a blue-like handle that doesn’t cover the whole handle,just the top half. anyway,what would u guys recommend. hopefully it’s not expensive and where would i get them? restaurant supply store?

Is the McDonald’s food chain the best America can offer? Who can compete with the McDonald’s “restaurants”?

McDonald’s production costs are probably the LEAST of any restaurant–even lower than the H&H (Horn & Hardart’s), which used to serve great food for the money, which is probably why the H&H was superseded by the more profitable and less expensive chain, McDonald’s! The burger places put the H&H’s out of business, and the best survivor of these burger places is McDonald’s. WHY CAN’T U.S. CATERERS COME UP WITH A BETTER SOLUTION THAN McDONALD’S? Is America still the greatest country in the world as reflected by its restaurants?
H&H’s hamburgers were REAL MEAT AND NO FILLER! Okay, so they had a bit of gristle, but they were really tasty! And what has become of Tasty Cakes and Pies (from Philly)…the old days were much better when FOOD WAS FOOD! And how dare you talk of burger restaurants–what concerns me is the American CULTURE! America should be a shining example to the REST OF THE WORLD!
