Could #candy prices be falling?
It's been a bit of a rough time for the $49 billion confectionary industry given the high price of sugar, which reached 45.75 cents per pounds as of last November on the New York futures market. Today, prices are down to 36 cents per pound, and could drop another 10 percent. That's driven by a pretty great crop this ye...

Here's to the Golden Arches
What's wrong with this picture? The fries are golden, HOT and plentiful. The burger is fresh, and "fits" the price point. The answer is. Nothing. There's no problem with this. The problem with a fast food burger is it doesn't have the ambiance and "experience" of the high-brow $15 burgers and resta...

Pizza Corner, Casablanca and the ND WinterShow
It was around this time 7 years ago Pizza Corner (FROZEN) sold out to Bernatello's. Wow time flies. Like most I'll still agree the "old original" frozen pizza was better. But the "new" isn't to bad. It really isn't. Trust me...it's okay to say you like it 🙂 What hasn't changed? The in shop Pizza Co...

Is inflation causing you to make choices?
How do you fight inflation? Stop buying. Shop smarter. When Diet Coke hit $13 for a 24 pack regular price and eggs are $.50 each for $6 a dozen I asked myself. What have I done personally to reduce my personal cost and budget? I've intentionally shopped around even more looking for the best price of the staples. I have...

Tubby Burger. Still the best #burger of all-time?
Few things in life remain constant. Most change with time and so do the memories. Usually not as good as when you were a kid right? My childhood home in Williston is much smaller than I remember. That hill by the pool? It's more like a speed bump than a hill. Years ago at the ND Winter Show in Valley City the first foo...

The bacon cheese burger on a budget
No denying my affection for a hamburger. Over the years I've quit fighting the desire to really try much other than a burger when we go out to eat. I've blogged often about my favorite area burgers--to many to relay again--but recently I've rediscovered the discount burger. In times like these why not? Trust me I'm sti...

I'm not much of a traveler and specifically I don't consider myself a "foodie" Never have and never will. Intentionally driving to eat at a restaurant isn't much of my way to roll. One of the 5 best burgers...

Moorhead DQ: Home of the worlds largest Dilly Bar!
Did you know the world largest Dilly Bar is in Moorhead, MN? The Moorhead DQ is a throwback to the old time ice cream shop. If you turned on some Bryan Adam's Summer of '69 you'd have a hard time convincing me it's 2022. Honestly without comparing I'd say even the prices are a little easier on the pocket book than most...

What fast food do you miss? McDLT
Growing up in LaMoure the closest fast food restaurant was about 50 miles away in Jamestown for McDonald's. You might be surprised in a world where people commute more than an hour each way that trips to Jamestown, Valley City or Aberdeen were rare. Every few months? So a stop at McDonald's for a kid felt like Christma...
