Dr. Praeger's Organic California Veggie Burger [+] For veggie burgers these are pretty good. "Carrots, peas, zucchini, onion and spinach are just a few of the veggies in this classic plant-based veggie burger..." You fry it six minutes per side. It's a bit fragile but if you're careful the burger stays intact and since it's fried it tastes fairly good.
Movie - Hyena Road (2015) [/] This is a Canadian film about a Canadian unit serving in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Their main assignment is to make sure the Hyena road is built and to do that they have to befriend the locals and deal with Taliban insurgents. Our hero Warrant Officer Ryan Sanders (Rossif Sutherland) leads his sniper team on missions to protect the road while secretly romancing Captain Jennifer Bowman (Christine Horne) who I guess is his mission operator. The main plot becomes trying to befriend The Wolf (Aqqalu Meekis), a retired and still legendary Afghan who fought the Soviets and is no friend of the Taliban. Military Intelligence officer Captain Pete Mitchell (Paul Gross) recruits Sanders to help him find and talk to the Wolf... Small budget with some good action scenes. Not especially gripping though; took me a few sessions to watch it all the way through.
Netflix Movie - Blade of the 47 Ronin (2022) [-] A sequel to the Keanu Reeves movie though wasn't really necessary. Rebellious girl Luna (Anna Akana) is the last descendant that can wield the magic katana to kill the Big Bad. Three female samurai are tasked with protecting her... It's got a made-for-tv low budget quality so unfortunately the action is not really cool.
