Good thing they are so expensive on Amazon right now. All this talk is making me hungry for them
I have seen those locally! The grocery store Shop Rite near me has them.

I wonder if that brand has the old fashioned type dense texture? It really soaks up butter and broth

I'll be having konjac noodles today, sigh. Tasty but not a substitute for the real drug

Those noodles look like the ones my grandma made! I was always snitching them while they were laid out to dry after she cut them. She cooked them with chicken and we ate them over mashed potatoes. A family favorite!!

I am seriously missing baseball. I guess that's a big essential non-essential for me as it's one of my best tools for coping with anxiety!

I spoke to DS tonight who lives in a different state. He played DnD with friends online last week. He also watches movies with friends online(!)
I have been playing Wingspan with DH and DD and I was looking at their website and apparently an online version is available or will be available soon. I bought the WS board game for DS for his birthday but I wanted to play it first. Now I am hooked so I ordered another one for him. Hopefully they can deliver it to him before they shut businesses down in MO. Then we can play with him and DIL online via Zoom.

Red Vines! I usually don't have an issue staying away from sugar - as long as it's not in the house - but I've been craving these things like no one's business. Coffee is also a must.

This. In boldface and all caps.

Another huge baseball fan here. I think your DH is right. I was hoping they could figure out a way to play with no fans since baseball is not a contact sport, but they do spend a lot of time in close contact in the dugout and the locker room, so it's probably not possible.

It's tough not having any sports at all to watch because it also serves as stress relief for me. And watching old games doesn't do anything for me.

My non-essential essential food item would be Brookside Dark Chocolate covered Pomegrantes! I thankfully bought a huge bag the last time I went to Sam's, which was almost 3 weeks ago now. I'm trying to conserve them.
