I met him at a factory tour that we did outside of Portland. He was so humble and just seemed like a lovely human. A highlight that brings me joy every time I eat his museli for breakfast (70g museli, 70g frozen blueberries, 170g whole milk yogurt)
I love that the company is employee-owned, and he just seems like an overall inspiration in many ways.
- criddell 3y agoAre the blueberries still frozen when you eat them?
- Marsymars 3y agoDifferent poster, but I have a kinda-similar breakfast. I put the frozen blueberries in a bowl in the fridge the night before to thaw, or if I forget to do that just microwave them for 30s.
- pinchy 3y agoI put the frozen ones straight into the pot toward the end of cooking. They thaw quickly and the juices turn the oatmeal bluish. It's great!
- csa 3y agoI let my muesli, frozen blueberries, and yogurt sit for a little bit so that the muesli softens. The blueberries thaw enough during that time. Delicious!
- dhc02 3y agoFrozen blueberries thaw extremely quickly. I put them into refrigerated yogurt and wait about 10 minutes and they're delicious.
- ericholscher 3y agoI use the wild blueberries (smaller) for better texture, and usually just let them sit for ~5 mins and they defrost pretty quickly!
- subpixel 3y agoI bought a chest freezer mainly to accommodate the 20lbs of wild blueberries I freeze each summer. A cup of bloobs with a little granola on top is my daily breakfast. The berries freeze the milk and result in a delicious slush. Oddly the rest of my family prefers other things so I eat them all myself.
- bethekind 3y agoI love the word Bloobs. I'm going to use it whenever I can today
- mastersummoner 3y agoI play a survival game called Valheim, and you can find patches of blueberries to harvest. Whenever I do, I label them 'bloobs' on the map. It's a fantastic shorthand.
- Arrath 3y agoDad? What are you doing on HN? /s Your breakfast is almost the exact same as his, complete with the frozen berries making a milk slush.
