smash Posted February 17, 2014 at 10:51 PM Posted February 17, 2014 at 10:51 PM Here in South Africa, we call the crock pot a slow cooker. It is a lovely thing to have. You're just about guaranteed that you won't burn your food, which suites me down to the ground. Sharon 3
flutefreak Posted February 17, 2014 at 11:25 PM Posted February 17, 2014 at 11:25 PM Man are we bored or what talking about chips and crockpots! I love it though. Perhaps we should start a thread in off topic and share crockpot recipes, I have a few but need more. 7

Yes, I'm pretty sure Crock-Pot is a brand of slow cooker, but it become synonymous with the slow cooker itself (at least in the US), like Band-Aid for that type of bandages.

CelinesDIVO5 Posted February 18, 2014 at 03:06 AM Posted February 18, 2014 at 03:06 AM Yes, I'm pretty sure Crock-Pot is a brand of slow cooker, but it become synonymous with the slow cooker itself (at least in the US), like Band-Aid for that type of bandages. The difference between a slow cooker and a crock pot is that the crockpot is electric. You plug it in rather than putting a slow cooker on the stove. 4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL54qnRGM2gMatthew Charles - "Fix You" - Live at The Stonewall InnStonewall Sensation - Season 15Originally written and performed by Coldplay
littleames Posted February 18, 2014 at 06:42 AM Posted February 18, 2014 at 06:42 AM (edited) one bag is black while the other is orange. Several years ago they changed the flavour of the BBQ chips and then a few years later brought back the original flavour so they now have 2 kinds. At least they have 2 kinds over here.I mainly only buy the black bag and sometimes I buy Golden Flake's Sweet Heat chips lol. But yea, the black bag is what I've seen her with. it feels so weird havin a conversation about chip bags Edited February 18, 2014 at 06:42 AM by littleames

The chilli slaw dogs you're talking about, is that like a salad, made from thinly sliced cold cabbage, carrots and mayonnaise all mixed together? But you would then add chilli? Then you put that on top of the hot dog? We call what I explained to you, coleslaw. We can like order that if we buy KFC, or other fast food outlets. Sharon

It's a hot dog topped with coleslaw and chili. I enjoy colloquialisms. They are the "eyebrows" of any language. The nuance or local flavor added to the spoken word. It's my hope to travel and visit local cafes just to hear peoples stories and views on life in general. The fact that I can communicate with virtually anybody now still "blows my mind". Imagine trying to do this a few decades ago. Randomly dialing phone numbers and introducing yourself. 2 Better the pride that resides in a citizen of the world, than the pride that divides when a colorful rag is unfurled. Neil Ellwood Peart
ehild Posted February 18, 2014 at 08:16 PM Posted February 18, 2014 at 08:16 PM Rather than quoting everyone and their mother...... I absolutely love my crock pot!! I love coming home to an awesome meal that's already done. I think we should start a topic for recipes (or maybe a sub-topic?). And chili slaw dogs are amazing, too!! 3 ~Liz"Please don't make your career your life. Let it be your passion, let it bring you pleasure, but don't let it become your identity.

I know, it is absolutely amazing what we can do, the technology is fantastic, within a couple of seconds, we are in touch with people from all over the world. Nice to be able to talk like this in general, about all kinds of things. It's really cool!! Hope your dreams come true to visit all the places you wish to go to. Sharon 1
