I used to do the fake crab too, but then I read the package and realized it's half sugar and potato flour

Beans are great, I forgot about those. I can't bring myself to rinse the ground beef, though it does reduce the fat. My mom used to do that, but she didn't drain it very well or heat it back up afterward. Really, she could screw up boiling water.....I love her dearly, but she's not a cook lol
