(*stockphoto*stockphoto*stockphoto* Someone forgot to remind Sean to tell Kerry to mention to me to remember to bring my camera with me that morning. This is just the photo from last year's visit. *stockphoto*stockphoto*stockphoto*) https://persysplace.com/ Place: Persy's Place Location: 3198 Cranberry Highway, East Wareham, MA Hours: open at 7:00am every day of the week Meal: (me) Banana Split Pancakes; a side of hashbrowns with pepper Jack cheese and jalapeños; and, to drink, a cuppa (and one-and-a-half refillas) maple-flavoured Coffee (perhaps, New England Coffee? I have never bothered to ask) (Truthfully, there were just too many of us at the table for me to remember what everyone else had ordered that morning; besides, they are all free to write their own silly li'l 'blog-things for what they had for breakfast.)
(I bet you were not aware that both Paul Wilchinskyand Charles Dawson Butler were originally from Cape Cod.) If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Persy's Place For reference to the above sub-titular remark, it looks like I also had eaten at Persy's Place (see last 'blog-entry from Wednesday, July 25th, 2018) on a Tuesday during my previous two visits to Wareham. I probably would have gone later in the week, anyway, but my cousins Cindy (née Sammarco) and Carmie (still Sammarco) and his wife Helen (now Sammarco; don't know her née-name) and my Aunt Jean (mother to the two aforementioned Sammarcos, but now last-named Abruzzese) were in town and suggested this place for breakfast that morning. Additionally, two of my brothers, Kerry and Sean, joined us all for the meal. You can forget about me listing any other good ideas for breakfast at this place. They probably have the largest breakfast menu in all of New England. It is almost impossible to make a decision for what to eat. You are best to just close your eyes and point to something on the d*rn menu... and, even then, you will still have to choose two sides (which they call "Druthers") from a list of twelve! Trust me, just get their very good cornbread (which is a large enough portion to feed two people, anyway) and totally wag-it on the second side choice. I do like that they offer breakfast potatoes two ways: as homefries or hashbrowns.
(This photo is courtesy of my brother Kerry who took it with some kinda newfangled mobular-device-contraption. He then forwarded a copy of it to my electronic mailbox. Amazing! I have no idea how all this technology-stuff works.) Because I did not even want to attempt trying to make a futile decision on what to get for breakfast, I ordered this meal off their weekly/monthly specials menu. It was the most disgusting-sounding dish on the menu; so I knew I would love it. I can not believe that someone at the table dared to offer me some maple syrup to pour over the pile! I think Sean and/or Kerry mentioned that the mess on my plate should have had both whipped cream and a maraschino cherry on top of it to make it an official Banana Split. I told them not to be ridiculous, even I would never put whipped cream on my hashbrowns (of course, I have no problems with maraschino cherries on my potatoes... oooh!... and maybe some crushed peanuts or walnuts, too, Snorky). I do not remember what they actually called their amped-up hashbrowns, but this was a very smart way to go. While the jalapeños were not of the fresh-sliced variety, they were not overly vinegary either (I imagine even the persnickety son of NASA Astrophysicist Dr. John C. Brandt might not have minded these). Plus, after the over-the-top sweetness of the pancakes (this main dish should come with a side of hypodermic needle full of Insulin), the spicy, savouriness was a more than welcomed option. Initially I was going to order my potato side with homefries; however, when we were first seated our waitress told us that they were working on making more homefries for the morning and they would not be ready for about ten minutes or more. By the time our entire table (finally) ordered, the waitress said the homefries were now available. No matter, I still wanted to check out the hashbrowns all (pepper) jacked-up. Not that I really needed any extra condimentary supplements, but I think from past visits that Persy's Place has at least Tabasaco®Brand Pepper Sauce (Original Red Sauce), Frank's®RedHot®Original, and Huy Fong Foods, Inc.Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce.

(No official-type Web-Site.) Place: the Purple Rooster café Location: 105 South Street, Plainville, MA; phonicular contact: 508-316-1550 Hours: open 9:00am Wednesday to Friday and 8:00am Saturday and Sunday; CLOSED Monday and Tuesday Meals: (me) Butternut Squash-Potato Pancakes with pepper jelly, two eggs over-medium, and English muffins; (Cam and Kerry) Blueberry Banana Bread French Toast; (Sean) Beet & Onion Hash w/ Turkey & Bacon on Grilled Cheese; and to drink (me) orange juice (I did not notate what everyone else had to drink, there may have been some glasses of milk and Coffees)
(Only 'cause fat Lowell and the boyos do not offer a Y*nkee Rooster song. Besides, I have it on good authority that both Emmylou and Bonnie are big fans of Butternut Squash-Potato Pancakes with pepper jelly. I am pretty sure ol' fat Lowell woulda eaten anything put in front of him, too.)[2] Well, colour me Purple and call me "Harpo", Miss Celie! I would not ever have thought that one could find a Breakfastary Starting Rotation-worthy restaurant in the thriving ultra-megalopolis of Plain-ol'-ville, Massiechoosetts. (To paraphrase Hobson from the 1981 movie "Arthur": "Thank you for a memorable morning, usually one must go to a bowling alley to eat a breakfast of your stature.") But I was proved completely wrong on my very first day of vacation Back East last week. Wow, what a great little find in the Purple Rooster café! (Thanks for the suggestion, Sha!) Both the menu fare (with many st*pid vegetarian and Vegan options) and the atmosphere (laid-back, comfortable, and eclectic) coulda been something you might easily expect to find in the Haight-upon-Ashbury. Our entire group had ordered off their weekend specials menu, but there were still many other great options off their (pretty extensive) standard printed menu: several Pancakes selections ~ especially their Signature Flavors: Bacon & Apple(not for the Vegan at heart, though); Almond Joy (they do not list the ingredients, but I am assuming these would probably include almonds, coconut, and Chocolate); and Banana Walnut; several French Toast selections ~ also under their Signature Flavors (however, this was not underlined on the menu for some reason): Cinnamon Apple; Nutty Monkey (probably another banana-walnut selection?); S'mores; and Banana Crème Stuffed; The Matty ~ 2 fried eggs, fried bologna with cheese on a toasted Portuguese sweet roll with warm apples or homefries (not st*pid vegetarian- nor Vegan-friendly); It's Not The Matty, It's The GG ~ 2 scrambled eggs with spinach on a sweet roll with warm apples or homefries (now this one is st*pid vegetarian-friendly, but not for our Veganite friends); The Hawaiian ~ 2 eggs, grilled pineapple and honey ham on a cinnamon toast with warm apples or homefries; The Neil ~ 2 scrambled eggs with spinach and onion with sliced tomato and avocado on toast with warm apples or homefries; several versions of The Breakfast Bake - Comes with Toast~ homefries topped with scrambled eggs and your choice of style below: The Mexican (black beansalsa and cheese); Steak Bomb (steak, peppers, onions, mushrooms, and cheese); or Veggie Lovers (spinach, br*ccoli [which would have to be excised for me, Newman!], tomatoes, mushrooms, and cheese); and they even have a separate section under Potato Pancakes to include: The Ally (2 scrambled eggs with Feta, olives and tomatoes, 2 Southwest Potato Pancakes with toast); Original Potato Pancake (offered as 1, 2, or 3 pancakes); and Southwest Potato Pancakes (also offered as 1, 2, or 3 pancakes; they do not specify what makes these southwesterly, though). And that is only about half of their menu!
(Ha! I just love how my eggs were juxtapositioned right on top of the Rooster on the plate and you can only see his little feats sticking out.) My breakfast was rather simple, but it was also rather simply very good. I am always a big fan of any good Kartoffelpuffer type dish. I enjoyed these even more so with the interesting added ingredient of butternut squash in the mix. The only two minor quibbles that I might have were that the English muffins were just the pedestrian fare like that Mr. Thomas guy makes and the orange juice was served straight outta a 10-ouncer plastic bottle. That was all okay with me, anyway; I used some of the good hot pepper jelly on top of the faux crumpets and that helped a lot, too.
Now, I did not really poll the rest of the table on their intake (Who cares if they liked what they ate or not? I paid for the entire d*mn meal, anyway!), but from the looks of all the licked-clean empty plates, I assume they enjoyed their meals as much as I did. I know that I would have liked both of those other weekend specials myself, too. I think that both Cam and Kerry commented that the French toast would have been even a bit more better with some sliced bananas on top to go along with the blueberry compote on the side. I did not ask for nor see any condimentary supplementation that they might have had to offer. None was really needed for my meal this morning, anyway. glen Bacon Scale rating: Butternut Squash-Potato Pancakes with pepper jelly ~ 7.0 ___________________ 1. https://www.plainville.ma.us/

Airport Breakfastary Food - Part IX San Francisco International Airport (SFO) (Saturday, 8/17/2019)
https://www.flysfo.com/content/y*nkee-pier[1] Place: Y*nkee Pier® Location: Terminal 3, Boarding Area F near Gate 72, SFO; phonicular contact: 650-821-8938 Hours: open daily 5:00am (or so they say; I got there around 6:30am and it looked like they had just opened for business for the morning) Meal: GreekScramble~ eggs scrambled with spinach, mushrooms, red onion, Feta & tapenade, served with home fries & choice of toast (I chose sourdough); to drink with the meal, a large glassa orange juice; and, to drink afterward while walking around waiting for my plane, a medium cuppa Peet's Coffee®Yosemite Dos Sierras https://www.peets.com/coffee/dark-roast/yosemite-dos-sierras-organic
(I do not know if either Sir George Ivan or Maurice, the Space Cowboy,[2] like Feta and/or spinach, but they were playing both of these songs on the house-stereo while I was eating breakfast.) I really enjoyed the geographic irony of eating at a place named Y*nkee Pier® when flying out of San Francisco heading towards Boston. Of course, I was half-expecting to find a seafood restaurant in Logan Airport on my return flight called "Dock of the Bay" or such. They actually offered a decent variety of breakfastary items, even for stupid vegetarian-types. Ferinstance: Tofu Scramble ~ egg whites scrambled with tofu, mushrooms, spinach, green onions, served with home fries and choice of toast; NorCal Scramble~ eggs scrambled with tomatoes, avocado, salsa verde, cumin sour cream, served with home fries & choice of toast; or maybe even Cinnamon Raisin French Toast ~ with fruit compote & pure maple syrup.
(The tops of the tables caught my eye as they were cartography-themed. Mine happened to be of the Monterey Bay/Monterey Canyon area.)
All in all, this was surprisingly a very decent breakfast. I was not really expecting to like a dish from an airport restaurant-kitchen as much as I did. It was served more in a frittata-style, which is nice. One of the nicer surprises was that the topping was made of an authentic Kalamata olive tapenade. However, if I had one small quibble (a quibblaki, perhaps?), it would be that they should have used tomatoes instead of mushrooms in it; that would have been a bit more Greek-y to me. Their version of homefries were extremely good, too. For condimentary supplementation, Y*nkee Pier® had Tabasco®Brand Pepper Sauce (Original Red Sauce), Tapatío®Salsa PicanteHot Sauce, and Cholula®Hot Sauce (Original) (but just one bottle that was semi-hidden in with a bunch of other condiments). I used a good amount of their Tapatío® on the potatoes. (just a bit of a) Strange Coffee Interlude I was hoping on finding a less ubiquitous Coffee purveyor than both St*rbucks and Peet's®, but SFO's Terminal 3 really lacked in choices. So, I just went for the worse of two evils and ordered whatever they were serving as the drip-Coffee choice at one of the Peet's® in the terminal. Me: "What blend do you have this morning?" Clueless Baristette: "Dark Roast!" Me: "Yes, but which specific blend or roast are you offering this morning?" CB: (has to go look at the bag of whatever blend/roast they have brewed... then just shows me the bag) Me: (thinking "Really?!") Glen Bacon Scale Rating: GreekScramble~ 6.5; Peet's Coffee® Yosemite Dos Sierras ~ 6.8 ___________________ 1. Okay, so maybe you will need to replace the "*" in that URL with an "a". I just did not want to be caught using any overtly vulgar language in my personal 'blog-thing. 2. It took me a bit to recognize this song. You know you are getting old when it takes you a minute or so to remember who the original artist of a Classic Rock-and/or-Roll song is.
(Yeah, so there is no cover photo of the restaurant this morning. There was a construction scaffolding blocking the entire front of the building.) Place: Joe's Coffee Shop Location: 6134 Geary Blvd (between 25th and 26th Avenues); phonicular contact: (415) 668-9382 Hours: open 7:00am Sunday to Saturday Meal: Vegetable and Cheese Omelet~ tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, bell pepper, and spinach, served with hash browns and toast (where I went with sourdough again today); and a large glassa orange juice to drink
(Now I kinda wish I had ordered a side o' beans with my breakfast... [actually they do not offer these as a side on their menu, but still...]) I went back to Joe's Coffee Shop (see last 'blog-entry from just Saturday, February 2nd, 2019) this morning. This was actually my back-up "Plan B from Outer Space", Mr. Wood. I originally was planning on going back to Lincoln Park (Golf Course) Restaurant; however, they were not open at 8:15am when I had walked "all-the-way-over-there" (it is a full two blocks away, after all). They are supposably open on Saturdays and Sundays at 8:00am for breakfast now. Just-in-case they were not open, I had it in mind to simply head down to Joe's Coffee Shop (which was a whole 'nother nine blocks away, fercryin'outloud!). Once again, I sat at their diner-counter, and, once again, there was Premier League Football (which looked a lot like Soccer, if you ask me) on the telly: M(anchester)UN(ited) v. CHE(lsea). I did not stay until the end of the match, but ManU was the first to draw blood (Goooooal!) with a Penalty Kick-thing while I was eating breakfast.
There was nuthin' fancy-shmancy about this meal. It was just your basic, good ol' diner-fare kinda omelette. I am not sure which type of cheese was in it, but it was a decent, melty kind ~ probably Monterey Jack (it was definitely not any tasteless, useless 'merican "cheese", which was what I was fully expecting). The hashbrowns were very good ~ crispy-crunchy ~ just the way I like 'em. For condimentary supplementation, Joe's Coffee Shop offers Tabasco®Brand Pepper Sauce (Original Red Sauce), Crystal®Louisiana's Pure Hot Sauce, and Huy Fong Foods Inc.Sriracha HOT Chili Sauce on the counter top and tables. I used a little of my own Old St. AugustineDatil Pepper Sauce (Thanks,Greg & Cindy!) on the omelette and H*ll's KitchenSmoky Bourbon Hot Sauce (Thanks, Mom!) on the hashbrowns. I also made sure to use a good amount of my new The Spice & Tea Exchange® Florida Sunshine Spice Blend (Thanks, Cindy!) all over both the omelette and potatoes. https://www.spiceandtea.com/seasonings-blends-rubs/grinder-blends/florida-sunshine-spice-blend.html Glen Bacon Scale Rating: Vegetable and Cheese Omelet ~ 6.0
https://www.itsjane.com/location/jane-on-fillmore/#breakfast/ Place: Jane~ on Fillmore Location: 2123 Fillmore Street (between California and Sacramento Streets) Hours: open daily from 7:00am Meal: Raw Sprouted Black Rice Porridge ~ almond and coconut milk, chia seeds, coconut crunch (which was basically granola and dried/roasted coconut meat), goji berries, fresh kiwi[1] (served warm upon request)[2]; a Citrus Brioche for starters; and, to drink, a cuppa their own Bread & Butter blend/roast Coffee (for some reason, this location does not do single-cuppa pour-overs like they do at their on Larkin Street location)
(I will let you try to decipher the hidden juxtaselection with this classic [but sounding overly corn-ballish today] 80's EweToobular song/video. And, no, it is not because Johann/János Weißmüller was a big fan of either goji berries or kiwi berries. [Although, I did not even consider the whole "Edgar (Raw Sprouted Black) Rice Burroughs" connection.])[3] To make it a compleat Jane kinda weekend (see 'blog-entry from just yesterday, Saturday, August 3rd, 2019), I went back to their on Fillmore Street location. Once again, I sat upstairs in the loft-area, overlooking the mounted Bison-head. (Jane, is that you?!) (Because I am basically lazy, I did a "cut-'n'-paste" job from yesterday's 'blog-entry, just deletising today's meal option.) There are still a few more good breakfastary ideas (even for st*pid vegetarian-types with reading-comprehension problems): (the simply-enough named) Egg Sandwich ~ on your choice of housebaked sourdough, multigrain bread or baguette with homemade tomato chutney and Cheddar cheese (where I would have to go with the "Add Avocado" option; ha! "tomato chutney" and "Cheddar cheese"... "What are two things you will never see or hear at Ronnie Mac's RainbowRoom? for $200, Alex." ); Avocado Mash ~ avocado, cracked black pepper, soft boiled egg, pickled shallot and jalapeño on house sourdough (basically your ubiquitous "Avocado Toast"); and Dragonfruit Smoothie Bowl ~ dragonfruit, pineapple, banana, ginger, coconutwater, blueberries, raspberries, hemp seeds, flax seeds, cocoa nibs, goji, mulberries (that oughtta be enough d*mn berries to hold over both Captain Parmenter and Maria Halle). ("Okay, Brian. We get that you are too d*mn lazy to actually re-type the items, but did you really have to include the same st*pid jokes in each description?" Well, yes, I really did have to!) Additionally, they offer a few different salads (not on the breakfast portion of the menu) that I am sure that I could have a poached/soft boiled egg added atop to make a bit more breakfastarily-sound. Ferinstance: Rainbow~ shredded carrots, cherry tomatoes, marinated kale, avocado, cucumbers, baby spinach, housemade hummus, tahini dressing (Hmmm?! Seems to me that their "Rainbow" is missing something yellow, blue, indigo, and violet, though); Freekeh ~ kale, sprouted mung beans and black lentils, currants, green onion, mint, sunflower seeds, cumin lemon dressing (just be forewarned, if I do ever order this salad, I will more than likely have to go with the titular joke "Get your Freekeh on!"; sorry, them is the rules); or Fiesta Rice Bowl ~ red rice, chipotle roasted carrots, black beans, avocado, red pepper, romaine, mango salsa (vegan) (Hmmm?! Looks like this salad has just as many colourscovered as their Rainbow salad; maybe they shoulda called this one their "MexicanRainbow" salad). (Thankfully, neither of these salads have any m*udits lardons listed as an ingredient for me to accidentally overlook.)
(Trust me, the Citrus Brioche really did taste much better than the cr*mmy photo above looks.)
Like yesterday's breakfast salad-thing, this was all pretty basic and simple. All in all, I liked it well enough. There was a decent amount of kiwi berries diced up on top as well as some goji berries. I hate it when "eating healthy" actually tastes good, too! (But, thankfully again, there were no hidden m*udits lardons for me to pick out this morning... ) The Coffee was also very good this morning. I have had their own blend/roast several times before, anyway. It is just not as flavourful as the Kenyan Coffee from yesterday morning, though. Because this was a sweet, not savoury, dish, I skipped any additional condimentary supplements. I did notice that this location offers both Tabasco®Brand Pepper Sauce (Original Red Sauce) and Tapatío®Salsa PicanteHot Sauce. (You know, I almost thought about using some of my new The Spice & Tea Exchange®Florida Sunshine [Almost thanks, Cindy!] spice grinder-upper-thing on it... almost... with its list of ingredients as "sea salt, orange zest, green peppercorn, ginger, lemon zest, lime zest, and rose petals" it really mighta notta been that bad of an addition.)

St*pid, useless botanical pointer of the day: Like the goji berries in the dish, kiwifruit are actually berries, too. 2. Of course, I went with the warmed-up option, but not before giving the poor counter-lady person a bit of a hard time while ordering. Me: "... and the Raw Sprouted Black Rice Porridge, and a cuppa Coffee." Poor Counter-lady Person: "Would you like that warmed up?" Me: "Of course I would like my Coffee 'warmed up'. Even better, make it 'hot' if you can do so... " (I made sure to keep an eye on her while she was pouring my Coffee to make sure I did not get the deservedly-so "Friends"-type "sneezer". I have no idea what she told the kitchen-staff to do to my bowl o' porridge, though.) 3. Ha! I even still possess the Maxi-Single 45rpm (as in vinyl-record) version of this silly song.
https://www.itsjane.com/location/jane-on-larkin/ Place: Jane~ on Larkin Location: 925 Larkin Street (on the corner of Cedar Street, which is really just a two block long alley in the 'loin) Hours: open daily from 7:00am Meal: Breakfast Frisee Salad ~ frisée, arugula, chive, lardons[1], radish, rainbowcarrot, soft boiled egg, shallot vinaigrette, toasted baguette; and, to drink, a mighty fine cuppa (done in the single-cuppa pour-over way) Campos® CoffeeKenya Thirikwa Gakuyuini AA (try saying that ten times fast... or slow, even) https://us.camposcoffee.com/product/thirikwa-gakuyuini-aa/
(There is no EweToobular juxtaselection with this song/video; I just woke up this morning with the song talking in my head. I have no idea how little Davey Burns and the rest of the Speaking Faces feel about lardons or Kenyan Coffee, though.) I have been meaning to get back to Jane (see last 'blog-entry from Sunday, April 14th, 2019) for a while now and finally made it back to their "on Larkin" Street location this morning. There are still a few more good breakfastary ideas (even for st*pid vegetarian-types with reading-comprehension problems): (the simply-enough named) Egg Sandwich ~ on your choice of housebaked sourdough, multigrain bread or baguette with homemade tomato chutney and Cheddar cheese (where I would have to go with the "Add Avocado" option; ha! "tomato chutney" and "Cheddar cheese"... "What are two things you will never see or hear at Ronnie Mac's RainbowRoom? for $200, Alex." ); Avocado Mash ~ avocado, cracked black pepper, soft boiled egg, pickled shallot and jalapeño on house sourdough (basically your ubiquitous "Avocado Toast"); Dragonfruit Smoothie Bowl ~ dragonfruit, pineapple, banana, ginger, coconutwater, blueberries, raspberries, hemp seeds, flax seeds, cocoa nibs, goji, mulberries (that oughtta be enough d*mn berries[2] to hold over both Captain Parmenter and Maria Halle); and Raw Sprouted Black Rice Porridge ~ almond and coconut milk, chia seeds, coconut crunch, goji berries, fresh kiwi (served warm upon request).
This was basically a big bowl o' rabbit-food... with two poached eggs... and a whole lotta dead, decaying porky-butt bits... (D'oh! See, kids, this is where it pays to read the entire d*mn menu ingredients. And by "... a whole lotta... ", I mean, there was probably enough dead, decaying porky-butt bits laced into it to sate even Rudy Smith's bacon-appetite... possibly... ). At first, I looked at the dead, decaying porky-butt bits and thought "those are some pretty strange-looking rainbowcarrots... " (of which, I was happy to see at least three different colours of carrots: your basic orange, some purple-looking dealies, and some golden ones). It took me a good five minutes to pick out as many of the offending offal as possible (thankfully, they were pretty large dead, decaying porky-butt bits), then I had to make sure to pick around any that I may have missed... Sheesh! (another not so) Strange Coffee Interlude Jane's standard drip-Coffee, Bread & Butter, is a medium-dark roast blend that they produce locally in San Francisco; I have had it several times before and wanted to try something different. The Coffee that I had this morning from Campos® Coffee as a pour-over is probably a visiting-roastery kinda-thing. I do not think that I have ever had this particular brand before, but I really enjoyed today's cuppa. While Kenyan Coffee ain't exactly Ethiopian (I noticed in their online menu that they do offer an Ethiopian, too), it is similar in flavour. For condimentary supplementation, Jane ~ on Larkin has Tabasco®Brand Pepper Sauce (Original Red Sauce), Tapatío®Salsa Picante Hot Sauce, Cholula®Hot Sauce (Green Pepper), and Huy Fong Foods Inc. Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. I skipped using any of their bottled hot sauces (though I did entertain using some of the GreenCholula®) because I was given four new spice-grinder-things from The Spice & Tea Exchange® (Thanks, Cindy!). I used some (at first lightly, then, after taste-testing it for picanteness, a bit more) Pirate's Bite (Prepare for a Bite!) on top of one of the poached eggs and half of the salad and some Earthly Delight (A Robust and Hearty Seasoning) on top of the other poached egg and the remaining half of the salad. Of the two, I think I liked the non-salt-based Earthly Delight a bit more. However, do not discount the peppery-flavour (black peppercorn, white peppercorn, bird's-eye chile pepper, chipotle peppers, cayenne pepper, Datil pepper, habanero pepper blend, and Scotch Bonnet pepper[3]) of the Pirate's Bite, me matey! https://www.spiceandtea.com/ (We even have one of their shops locally here in San Francisco in some place called "Pier 39"... never heard of that place, though... ) Glen Bacon Scale Rating: Breakfast Frisee Salad ~ 6.4 (this rating does not reflect all les m*udits lardons in the salad, which, of course, was not their reading error); Campos® CoffeeKenya Thirikwa Gakuyuini AA ~ 7.2; The Spice & Tea Exchange®Pirate's Bite ~ 6.7; The Spice & Tea Exchange®Earthly Delight ~ 6.8 ___________________ 1. Contrary to popular belief, "lardon" does not mean "un végétarien st*pide with a reading deficiency". 2. Well, botanically-speaking (which is not another "stupid, useless cunning linguist pointer of the day"), the only true berries in that mixture are: banana, blueberries, and goji berries. 3. Datil chillies, habanero chillies, and Scotch Bonnet chillies are three different cultivars of Capsicum chinense. https://www.worldofchillies.com/Chilli-plant-varieties/Chilli-plant-varieties-Chinense/Chilli-plants-Capsicum-Chinense.html (Also, speaking of botanicals, chilli peppers are actually berries, too.)
