Rather than being placed under lock and key, it was revealed that the recipe was placed in a family scrapbook, written on the back of the last will and testament of Ledington's aunt, Claudia.

I thought Ts was teaspoon and Tbs was tablespoon…?

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Another argument for using weight.

What are you, some kind of European?

[–] Mr_Blott 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah we even have metal spoons here

[–] Zier@fedia.io 2 points 3 months ago

It's usually Ts, Tbs or just T (upper T) for Tablespoon. And tsp (usually lower t) for teaspoon, sometimes Tsp.

[–] DocMcStuffin@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I've never seen Ts used. Usually big T is shorthand for tablespoon and little t for teaspoon. So, plural of tablespoon? Also, I don't have a 1/3 tsp measure in my kitchen, but 1/3 Tbsp = 1 tsp.

The main argument I'd have against Ts for Tbsp is if you look up a recreation they're using tsp for most everything.

So what's the correct recipe?

Edit - ah, I see what yous are talking about. Doesn't matter whether it's teaspoons or tablespoons, I suppose it'll be the same!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It does matter, since it's being mixed with 2 cups of flour.

[–] Mr_Blott -1 points 3 months ago

If only there was a way to translate the nincompoop US measurements

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I've always been told big T is tablespoon small t is teaspoon.

What it's not just Chicken, Grease, Salt?

So on that note:

Sanders sold his "Kentucky Fried Chicken" company in 1964 for two million dollars.

Until his death in 1980, Sanders, always wearing his white suit and black string bowtie, worked as a spokesperson for the company he founded. But he wasn't pleased with the taste of his famous chicken and gravy. In interviews, including in a 1970 New Yorker article, he was so upset by the quality of the food that he would tell reporters that the gravy "ain't fit for my dogs." In fact, he was so open about his disdain for the alterations made to his signature recipes that KFC sued him for libel in 1978. The suit was eventually thrown out.

"How dare you be honest about what we've done! We gave you money, so we own you!"

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Their chicken has definitely gotten greasier over the years. Probably because they're always lowering the quality of the meat that they purchase. Now they are super fat, hormone laden chickens.
