What is food: Definition and 178 Discussions

Just wanted to share with you that we can use 1-1/2 c. of Devil's Food Cake mix from an 18.25 pkg. I've been searching all over this week looking for a Jiffy mix and gave up and started searching for a new recipe. Then I looked at the new f/w S/B recipe for Mini-Chocolate Tiramisu Cakes and in...

Hello, I am a new consultant with PC and have a question about the Food Chopper. I understand that the chopper comes apart for cleaning but while I am demoing it and chopping in the lid and sleeve and then I go to pull the chopping part of it off the sleeve the piece that covers the blade...

I have been a consultant for 9 years. Last night was a first. Walked into the house and the kitchen was totally taken over by junk!!!!!!!!! Dirty dishes in the sink, absolutely no free space on the kitchen table. The table fit very tightly in the kitchen, and there was cat hair everywhere...

I think I may have shared about this before, but it is something I am really struggling with...... My boys are adopted out of foster care. They have been with us for about 9 months and are well adjusted. When they came we really struggled b/c they would only eat junk food, and we don't eat...

Help me please! Tonight I'll be setting up a table and speaking with, I don't know how many, people for 15-20 minutes. I'll be inside a Chiropractor's office. I'm supposed to talk about how our products can promote healthy eating. Especially with fresh fruits and veggies now in this season...

Ok, if you haven't seen this on TV check it out YouTube - Slap Chop Commercial "You're gonna like my nuts." LOL!!!!!! :D Anyway, the product is advertised by the one and only Shamwow guy. I really think that guy is annoying and if you click on some more videos off to the side you will...

I don't know if this has been posted, but if you go to the Good Housekeeping website, there is a video of the best food choppers and they rated Pampered Chef as the best. :) It's a really short clip, but still kind of cool.

I'm attending an event on Tuesday to which I need to take German food of some kind. Anyone have suggestions for something quick, easy, and inexpensive? I'd prefer something that didn't have to remain hot. Cold wouldn't be a problem. TIA! Not that anyone asked, but I'm attending an...

I know we use this for tons of recipes, but does anyone have a recipe file that they give out to anyone who orders one? I usually don't, since it's kind of a "no-brainer" type of thing. I usually tell people what they can use it for: nuts, onions and other veggies, chicken, etc. But I have a...

Last night at my very first Pampered Chef show (which went GREAT! :D), I pulled out the Food Chopper and asked how many people had it already. A few raised their hands. Then I asked what they love about it and the first lady I picked said she uses it for everything and loves how easy it is to...

Was there food provided if your meeting was during a normal meal time? For example our meeting is from 5-9 and some have said they were told pizza would be available but i didn't receive any notice about food. The only thing I received was the address...

I have a customer with the OLD style Food Chopper. First, since only one set of parts is listed on the replacements list, I have to assume it id for the CURRENT Chopper. Second, I am not familiar with the old chopper. Does anyone know if any of the parts mix n match? The "inside platic...

I have an Open House coming up and I was wanting to get ideas for recipes that can sit out without becoming nasty. I don't want to spend alot of time during the show in the kitchen. My daughter and her friend (teenagers) will be there to assist, so I will have some help if there are some things...

Ok so I have a host that I work with that is doing a fundraiser on April Fools Day, and to draw in people I was thinking of doing a food subtlety (a food item that looks like one thing but is really something else). Has anyone done one of these with a PC recipe? Any suggestions or ideas?

A lady contacted me and said the food chopper she has had for a few years (< 5) is broken but she doesn't have her receipt. Will PC fix or replace it w/o a receipt?

There is a woman from my church who is a Chiropractor and has her own clinic. She just called and left a message on my phone asking if I'd be interested in doing a table/booth at her clinic in March. She wants me to talk about any of our products that might lead to helping people eat more...

I have an opportunity to do a Health Fair at the end of the month. The table fee is $95 (noon-4pm) which seems to be a bit high to me. I contacted the organizer and voiced my concern over the fee amount for an independent seller. She offered me the opportunity to supply 250 food samples in...

I've got a show next week for a repeat host .. Most of her guests have been to at least 6 of my shows within the last 2 years. She would like some type of finger food for a demo. Any thoughts on what to make to 'wow' this seasoned crowd?

I came across an older thread about a game called the Food Chopper feud. I have a show Monday night and the ladies are all eager to have a great night.
