The Copco casserole dish is hilarious! HOW COOL!!!! You should have fun

cooking in a pan like that!

I am a Pampered Chef consultant...and in September, the Stoneware is on sale.

How do you all feel about that??? I would really like to replace my aluminum

pans with the stoneware ones.

Any pros or cons??

THANK YOU!

Avery,

Well, will you tell us which pans you've got your eye on, and we'll

all discuss? Which pans have you tried so far?

WAPF recommends PC in their propaganda. I have a PC loaf pan I

bought at a flea market but have never used. Perhaps you're thinking

of a 13x9 baking pan? Loaf pan? Fluted? Gonna do some

baking--muffins? P-P-PIE?

Whoa, sugar monkey grabbed me in his stinking hairy grip and tried to

whoosh me off to his candy-kingdom!

pros: well, it's stoneware: beautiful, good browning, heat-holding,

everlasting.

cons: pricey

problem with sticking/releasing

I know in Cook's Illustrated the Pyrex always scores higher. The two

seem to perform as well but Pyrex is cheap and Pampered Chef is not so

they award points to the Pyrex.

So, how do you get stuff out without it sticking to the pan?

It'll be nice to replace those aluminum pans but you can always use

parchment and liners. I have heavy aluminum cookie sheets from Costco.

If it's a baking stone you have in mind, the PC ones seem a little small.

What are the pans, though? I thought they only had non-stick stuff.

Steph,

Oh, I get you now. As I understand it, Avery wishes to replace her

aluminum baking pans with stoneware baking pans from Pampered Chef.

Maybe " pans " is the wrong word.

Oh, like the 13x9 type things? Okay. Yeah, go with Pyrex. But, the

PC pie pan is awesome.

Well I ain't TB, and am probably the least qualified on this list to

talk about this subject, but I thought the PC stuff was great.

Admittedly I didn't pay for any of it, but I thought it was pretty

darn good stuff.

I am in the sense that I can't really engage in a thread since huge

gaps of time pass between responses from me these days. Thus my

silence on the evolution thread on this list and a couple of others.

Talk to me about Superfood, if you please; I'm almost out and don't

know if I should re-up.

You think it has adequate vit K and folate? The label doesn't list

the nutrition.

I don't know off the top of my head. I don't have a bottle in front of

me but if k and folate aren't listed then you will probably have to

look up the nutritional breakdown of each individual ingredient to get

your answer.

That said, I didn't realize how good Superfood was for me umtil I

stopped taking it and immediately noticed a difference. And since I

never found a vegetable I didn't like unless it was in a salad or a

root vegetable, Superfood meets a real need for me, especially now.

Also with food from the sea, brix is generally not a problem. So while

I might put it together a little differently if I was making it

myself, I still think it is a fabulous addition to a dietary regimen

for most people. It sure beats the days when I used to take all those

superfoods (and some others) separately. That was a chore.

Since you consider it " a fabulous addition to a dietary regimen " am I

correct in assuming you're not concerned that the Red Star nutritional

yeast in Superfood may be a potent source of MSG?

as this bit of promotion implies:

oh, and thanks for the reply.

Not particularly but that doesn't mean I can't be convinced otherwise.

I like Dr. B but I take exception to some of the things he says. The

Daystar article itself is IMO poorly written and full of non sequitors

and other logical fallacies

At any rate, I have toured Schulze's factory and seen how he makes his

Superfood, and was satisfied at that time. We did have a debate about

live versus non active forms of yeast at one of his seminars, the live

version being popular in Europe apparently.

What would be helpful I think is to find out what portion of his

Superfood is yeast versus the other ingredients. It would also be

helpful to talk with those who cannot tolerate Superfood and/or who

have split with Dr. Schulze, like Sam Biser, who helped make Dr.

Schulze a household name in some circles, but whose wife could not

tolerate SF and he has since split with Schulze. But more on that in

an upcoming post.

I should also note I will be in California in October and will be

paying a visit to the good doctor and his warehouse and checking

things out again. In the meantime I will revisit the issue of msg as

time allows.

The article is on the corporate website of a company with a competing

product, and the issue is whether there is MSG from nutritional yeast

in their competitor's product. So, why didn't they simply send a

sample of the Schulze product to an independant laboratory for

analysis and then post proof that it does contain MSG if the test

comes back positive? That they only imply that there's MSG in the

Schulze product instead of actually proving it tells me that it's just

questionable marketing hype. The Daystar site also claims a vegetarian

diet is healthier, and they recommend eating soy (their words: " Soy is

a wonderful choice, providing excellent quality protein " ). So, I'm

left with the impression that the Daystar folks are not a very good

source of health information.

And, speaking of free glutamic acid, if it is present in things like

soy sauce and Bragg's liquid aminos, wouldn't free glutamic acid also

be released in the body when soy is digested?
