I finally was able to find leeks at the grocery store for a reasonable price, since nearly every store near me has them in the "organic super food" section at $5 a stalk.

I turned it into some incredibly delicious Leek and Potato (And onion, I didn't read the recipe closely) soup.

I think I cursed myself, because now I'm going to be wanting leeks even more

For me it was real parmesan. I didn't realise how bad the packet stuff was until I bought a block of aged parmesan, now I can never go back.

The rind goes well in soup stock too

It's like night and day....I don't even think the kraft stuff is parmesan at all really. Still bomb on pizza though

Ever since I worked at a hippie grocery store and was taught about what GOOD fresh organic food looks like and tastes like, it's impossible for me to go back to things like that, or frozen bags of green giant veg, or pre sliced or shredded cheese and so on. I'll still eat frozen pizza and nuggies and fast food but as far as cooking for myself, never again
