Difference between: sun-dried tomatoes and dehydrated tomatoes
Sun-dried versus dehydrated tomatoes – what’s the difference? Which one should you use if drying your own tomatoes at home?

Difference between: water bath canning and pressure canning
Disclosure: This is a longer post, because I’ve added some vitally important information on the safety of canning.
Canning can be intimidating. If you screw it up, you could end up with botulism, a rare but deadly form of food poisoning. You even have to consider the altitude you’re at when canning.
But, there are really specific, detailed, free guides available. It’s actually not that hard.
The first thing – or one of the first things – you’ll want to consider when canning is which canning method you need to use, and there are only two to consider: water bath canning and pressure canning.

Difference between: mouthfeel and texture
I first learned of the term “mouthfeel” in The New York Times article “The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food.” Then, it came up again when I was reading, Salt, Sugar, and Fat.
When we started our Game Night Food Competitions, I used “mouthfeel” as one of the judging categories. My husband at one point asked if we could have “texture” instead, and I balked.
It occurred to me people really don’t know the difference, and clearly, they need to.
