Shenandoah Farms Ultimate Chocolate milk. Found in Northern Virginia. Absolutely the best Chocolate milk I've ever had and I've been around some.

Allegro spicy marinade in flank steak is money.

Used Zatarains sausage once in red beans. Absolutely disgusting.

Try this on flank steak if you can find it. I usually make my own marinade for fajitas and carne asada, but this is really good if you are short on time.

You’d be surprised, or maybe not, at the unfortunate amount of people who see any food with an association to Louisiana and automatically just call it “Cajun.”
