Of course he is! He’s named after one!

Sugar is neutral in PH, but can be used to help balance out overly acidic food. I would be worried that in this case it would just bolster the flavor of the lemon if it is strong enough that you can detect it in the sauce.

Baking soda should work fine and just turns the acid into CO2 and salt, but if it has a flavor of lemon, it sounds like you are dealing with lemon oils in the sauce.

You could try cutting it with some fat (milk, cream or butter), and I would try adding more onion and/or garlic to complement/mask the lemon.

You should probably consider buying a different base tomato sauce in the future.

Cinnamon twists!

Crunchy, sweet, pleasantly dry!

Yup! Fax is considered “analog” where as email is “digital” so the Hipaa/Hi-Tech laws are a lot easier on faxing then emails.

Rant incoming:

“Fast casual” has ruined dinning. The concept is a volume play of moving as many customers as quick as possible while still giving “personalized service” with the least number of servers possible. Naturally this becomes a race to the bottom with “service” taking the biggest hit since it is the most subjective experience and thus the hardest to measure. The worst part is that most American diners we are slowly lowering expectations in which allows for further reductions in service and makes the experience even worse, but “with prices like these, what can you expect?”

The uber rich spending is generally via “business expenses”.

For example: Elon doesn’t own his private jets, SpaceX does. When he takes it down to Hawaii for a 15 minute investor meeting followed by hanging out with them for the weekend at the nicest hotels with all the fixings and flys back, that’s all business expenses that he “derived no personal benefit from”, so SpaceX writes it all off as a business expense, thus reducing their tax burden and he never personally gets taxed for it.

A less egregious example that happens considerably more: a person has a rental property that resides between their normal living area, which they consider the “home office”, and an area of interest they travel too. They go to the area of interest, but make sure to stop by the rental on the way there and back. The milage from the home to the rental is business miles, and thus they can deduct the travel expense from any business incomes.

I am not advocating for any of those, but it doesn’t really matter if these business expenses are legal because the IRS doesn’t have a great way to determine these minor abuses, and certainly doesn’t have the people power to track it down.

The small one with the blanket!
