I love Liz Cook, she's one of the best food writers around.

I've taken it multiple times and it's always a full train.

This is the perspective of someone who doesn't understand how most people in the US live. Air travel is not affordable for many people.

"There is no way you can make a viable passenger route between Chicago and LA"

The Amtrak Southwest Chief exists. It may be subsidized by more profitable routes in the northeast, but it is nearly always full.

This is an all time favorite game from my childhood. It captured my imagination in a way that had a lasting impact. Like others have said, I was obsessed. While the Monkey Island games were my first adventure game loves, the serious subject matter and eerie otherworldliness of The Dig appealed to me at some primal level. The art, the incredible soundtrack, the sense of isolation, even the insane puzzles, all added up to a very different experience from other adventure games of the time.
You can't be serious about that link. It is a quack website that claims that wheat and sugar are harmful additives! It also uses the number of ingredients as a good metric of the healthiness of food.

I don't mean to be rude, but you clearly aren't talking about the same kind of application. I have worked on a SPA before that used knockout and jquery with an ASP.NET MVC backend and Razor-rendered 'templates'. It was a much different beast than an angular or react app.
