I'm the worst about this. My mom and I will try a new restaurant and I'll be talking about "oh this needs acid, that's the perfect amount of heat, blah blah." Meanwhile, I'm over here "cooking" noodles with a pile of kimchi every other day because that's all I ever have in the fridge.

Same. We find restaurants a challenge because at home I make everthing from scratch, including sauces, and it is way above par...but also this week the fridge was low so i had a coffee and a large spoon of those fried dried onions for breakfast

Oh I'm the opposite - I'm not a very good cook because I don't enjoy doing it. I'm pretty good with flavors because I'm not afraid of seasonings, but my knife skills are bordering on Worst Cook in America levels. The abuse I have wrought upon poor, innocent, delicious onions is a crime.

Also, if you like the fried onions, have you seen the jalapeno version? So good. I've started putting them on everything.

Good tip, thanks
