I’m Team Tupperware As Serveware. Once we’re done eating, lids go on containers and then straight into the fridge. (Technically we don’t use Tupperware -- does anyone anymore? -- we just don’t like doing more dishes!)
Ahaha yes I think what I have is a mix of Pyrex and those Glad containers the grocery store sells, which I was probably supposed to throw out five years ago but here we are.
Me too. I did pick up a nice set of plastic nesting bowls with matching lids a couple of years ago which satisfies me on both an aesthetic and convenience level.
I'm with you on this! We bought some nice glass tupperware (food containers? It's not technically tupperware as you say lol). Doubles as a mixing/serving bowl then can go straight to the fridge.
Loved this interview!!! I'll admit that I binge watched the first season of The Bear on a Saturday last month (it really is easy to do!). I will say that after working as a server, that show was triggering on many levels, and definitely realistic for how it is in a working kitchen. We never had anyone get stabbed, but someone did wave a knife in someone else's face once as a threat. I also LOVE Virginia's cheese plate, and wish I was in your book club! :D
Loved this episode and have also enjoyed several of Julia’s other interviews!
I work as a civil engineer, and the cheese board story made me realize anew how different the male experience is - when I go to technical society talks, and there’s a charcuterie board out; that thing gets absolutely ravaged within minutes! You gotta be quick when there’s a bunch of young (and older) men around! I know men also have weird diet culture stuff (keto and gains and huel dear god no); but cheese modesty is not nearly as much a thing.
Thank you so much for this beautiful conversation with Julia! I just listened to her body episode with Grace, and I also found it very moving. I’m bi and it really struck a chord with me.
This was a great read. I would love it if cookbook authors/recipe writers in particular changed the language, as Julie suggests. I get really tired of a baking recipe being described as an "indulgence" or "naughty", or some other recipe described as that increasingly meaningless "healthy". Tell me how to make the food, not how to think about it.

You can be in the Burnt Toast Book Club! Virtual so you have to cut up your own cheese but still so fun!
That's right, I forgot about that! And I don't have to "dress up" for that one! ;)

Ahaha, yes, "cheese modesty" is definitely a "socialized female" phenomenon. SIGH.

Oh so glad! I loved their conversation so much.
