The mpls staple is the jucy lucy. The cheese is pinched closed between the pattys. Its molten goodness in every bite. Be careful though eat too quickly and that hidden cheese shoots out like lava!

Hey now, it's not on the cheeseburger, it's piled up around the cheeseburger.

As for burgers, I always like to put avocado. Yum!
That does sound good!
I like blue cheese crumbles on my bacon cheeseburgers. Adds a nice bite to it!
Also, more rarely, a sauteed portabello cap, fried in the bacon/burger grease and just slapped on top, instead of lettuce and tomato.

Water you drink needs to get up to your body temp, which costs you energy. Specifically, 1 calorie per liter and degree Celsius (This is the definition of calorie). So, drink a liter of 20 C water. To get that up to the core 37 C will cost you 17 calories, i.e. actually lost energy. Water contains no energy to compensate, so 17 calories are taken from you. So far so good.
Now, if you notice, energy from food is measured in KILOcalories, or kcal. Eat a 200 kcal energy bar, and you get 200.000 calories. See why the lost energy is meaningless?

So what you're saying is I need to drink at least 100,000 liters of water a day for my "water weight loss negative calorie" plan to work. I can't see any bad effects from that. I'm off to the lake...
Can't help it, definition of a calorie is one milliliter of water one degree C. So your one liter takes 1 kilocalorie to go up a degree.
The point about lost energy is still not terribly relevant.

You mean to tell me I drank all that lake water for NOTHING?!
Oh god. The turtle urine. So much of it was turtle urine.
I'm going to be sick.
Yeah. Stupid me. Gram, not liter. So it's kilocalorie per degree C. As you say: A liter costs you 17 kcal to get up to body temperature from 20C. Compared to the 1000-1500 kcal you eat per day, it's pretty insignificant. Add in that drinking more than six liters or so during a day is pretty dangerous, and the lake water (and turtle urine) is not the optimal weight loss program.
Incidentally, this is why eating hot stuff compared to cold stuff means a negligible difference for energy content.
Oh, absolutely. You can get less energy that way. However, the core problem is this: Humans are wondrously, massively, amazingly superior at drawing energy from most sorts of organic matter. The energy we get from eating is huge. We don't really eat that much in a day if you go by weight. So cooling all the food might let you eat an extra cookie every few days.

It takes even more energy for the phase change than to warm it to body temperature?
How about freezing all the rest of my food too?
Frozen chocolate bars are less calories than room temperature ones!
of us think we should sell out and write an Eat Everything Frozen diet book. Then we can make the rounds of daytime talk shows and marginally reputable "doctor" shows... and eat the hosts.

MUSIC NUMBER!
♫Oh...
I'd eat 40 oz.
of Doctor Oz,
stuffed with lies
and wrapped in gauze
I'd gorge my fill
on Doctor Phil
even though
he spews such swill
I'd break my fast
on the entire cast
of that Doctors show,
the lousy bast—
ards!♫

I mean it's slightly more valid than "a pie cut in 8 pieces is less calories than just eating the pie"
Most of my aunts and uncles were already senior citizens when I was born (My dad was 56 and my mom 35). I grew up around them and older folks than they and as such I was exposed to "old person smell". I miss that.
I have the PlayStation 4 set up so if anyone wants to play videogames they have to stand up or perch on something.
LOL that's either funny or cruel. I can't decide. But I like it.

I like how players sometimes latch onto a detail early in the campaign and it becomes a vehicle for the most rampant paranoia for YEARS. Like in my current campaign there's two evil halflings who tricked the party into thinking they were benign servants, only to turn on them at the worst possible time. I can already tell that the players are forevermore going to mistrust all halflings throughout the campaign, stewing and raging until no one under 4 feet tall and barefoot is safe from their suspicion and ire.
It's hilarious.

I had a mimic disguise itself as a hammock once. The elf sorcerer would slash apart any hammock he came across in the campaign :)

Ha! I guess you could say he wreaked hammock...
No, wait, can I change that to "Cry Hammock and let slip the dogs of war!"
Hmm. I'll stick with wreaked hammock.
