impressions

Battle Royale - Gory; not my kind of movie. Qiao watched it. I didn't intend to, but was intrigued every time I walked by, so probably ended up seeing about half of it.
.
Chicken-free strips by Beyond Meat - this product was discussed on NPR. I'm not convinced it's as innovative as it was described (there are plenty of other meat substitutes that I like), but pan-fried, the texture really is nice, chewy, and layered, and tastes good.
Carrot brownies - I had an inspiration to shred a carrot into my normal brownie mix. The brownies ended up even softer/gooier than usual. Beyond that, not a big difference in taste. I'll try them again after they've been chilled; they're usually better that way.
