Going to Omaha for the weekend, with a brief foray to Lincoln. I was really looking forward to going to Maggie's Vegetarian Vittles as a food destination (even though semantically "vittles" has the curb-appeal of "slurry"). Putting my word fussiness aside and checking out the menu, I can tell this place is big on mouth appeal. But what kind of establishment in what kind of city keeps zero hours on the weekend? Bullocks. Maybe I’ll see what the deli at Open Harvest is dishing up instead.
While I' m kvetching.. I never get anything at a S'bucks that I don't see deriving from actual ingredients I can recognize before my very eyes.. a friend in the know once scared the bejesus out of me with stories about what goes into the flavor sprays and premade syrupy mixes. So I had all last night as I lay twitching in bed at 1 a.m. to reflect on the "chai" I was surprised to see distilled to some liquid essence and dispensed from a plunger that I nevertheless consumed. Exactly how many parts per million caffiene was that Monsanto cocktail?
