An alternative to popcorn ... & something related to waffles ...

I apologize to those that actually somewhat kept up with this blog. Life happens, as many people say, and the time to update this has been rather scarce.

But nonetheless I come today with TWO different items of interest (or at least I hope it's interesting to you). :)

First off is popped sorghum. I know that doesn't sound appealing AT ALL, but from what the site says, it is delicious, and of course, nutritious.

Sorghum is a type of grain, that usually is plentiful in various African nations, and is the 5th most produced grain in the world, following corn, rice, wheat, and barley.

At Popghum, they say that their product is like popcorn, but better. They offer flavors as simple as plain, to as fancy as Caribbean Adobo and Ethiopian Berbere!

I will probably buy some in the future (when money is not a major object), because it looks very interesting hehe. :)

WAFFLES. They're delicious, correct? Of course they are! But what if you could do a little more with them. Like eat them fresh from a place that specializes in them? OH YEAH.

Shaky Alibi is a little place in Los Angeles that specializes in waffles. A wafflerie to be specific. They have the good ol sweet breakfast waffles, but they also utilize their waffles in sandwich form, where they are sliced in half, and one has the option of adding certain meats and cheeses in it for a customized sandwich.

It's like the Monte Cristo but better. :)

I will eventually visit this place in the future.

If anyone out there tries the Popghum, or goes to Shaky Alibi, let me know how it all is ok? Thanks everyone!

Keep on eating y'all! ^__^
