Good morning
Used up
L'Oréal Tru Match Pressed Powder. I was using this to set my under eyes. I have dry skin and powder accentuates my lines so I really have no business using powder. Have more settings powders in drawer - Laura Mercier, IT, Bare Minerals, ELF
Sunday Riley Good Genes. I like her products and would repurchase. Have other moisturizers in cabinet - IT Olay Clinique ELF. I like to rotate
Tossed L'Oreal Lip Gloss. Was spongy. Didn't like it
@JeanLouiseFinch @amyb Bobby Flay's videos make me anxious. I downloaded his app and scanned my pantry. Per him I would have to throw away 95% of its contents. I deleted the app. He persuaded me to buy date syrup from Trader Joe's. Still unopened

@scatcat FlavCity is not Bobby Flay. It's Bobby Parrish.

Bobby Parrish has no background or training in nutrition or food science. His wiki page says he went to the best culinary school in the country, but doesn't mention the name of this school. I went to Johnson and Wales which I regard as the best culinary school in the country but NECI and CIA alums beg to differ so did he really go to culinary school?
He's a guy with a camera and lots of opinions. I have lots of opinions. Maybe I should get a cute kid and a camera too.

I hear you @scatcat @JeanLouiseFinch
I take Bobby with a HUGE grain of salt now. Not that I don't believe in many things. But so much doesn't suit my lifestyle vs. his (obviously wealthy)...I'll never be the purist it's his business to be. I'm not gluten intolerant or lactose intolerant as he and his family is. I'm never going to buy the amounts of things he does from all those expensive websites he gets paid to promote.
Do I think there's sense and value to some of his info...yes. I love to see good deals on healthy foods I already buy...however...he shops mainly at Cosco....but I don't belong nor do I live near a Costco. It is 30-35 min. away in both directions from me. I don't need to buy in bulk either. So there are great deals there, and if I wanted to belong on average I'd probably go maybe once a month....but probably won't.
I pick and choose from him, and other healthy sources I've followed, including my own good sense...for years.
His app. I downloaded it early on, the first iteration of it...never worked for me in the store. In fairness, the kinks were not worked out and a new version came out right after, I have yet to upload it though. I do want to, as with you, I've been curious to go through my cabinet. Although...like you...I won't be tossing 95% of my food!!
I've deligently read labels for years. I watch fats, sodium, sugar, chemicals, oils. Eat fresh as much as possible, organic dairy and chicken always. Organic wherever possible. Non-processed diet.
I do my best.
I bought Bobby's first book a few years ago and sent it back. Way too complicated with all kinds of ingredients not in my pantry.
Too much. Works for him and his family, and it's his, very lucrative, business/lifestyle. Mine, I'll stick to doing the best I can with common sense and my budget!

@scatcat FlavCity is not Bobby Flay. It's Bobby Parrish.
How kind of you to correct me. Yes - Bobby from Flav City. He used to live in Chicago now moved to FL. My mistake

Not much!
Just my usual Neutrogena Make-Up Remover Wipes. I have to say that I appreciate the new juicier wipes and that they are a biodegrable plant based wipe. I no longer feel guilty using them as much as I do!
Happy New Year and Be Safe, Be Well! See you in 2023!
