Is it shallow, or petty, to decide based on name alone? Yeah, pretty much, but there’s probably something, a product or service or site, that the name has made you gloss right over it or jump to it ASAP.

    I avoided the Instant Pot for a long time because it sounded cheap and all those functions couldn’t possibly work well.

    I was wrong. I was so wrong.

          Let me get this straight, this machine makes yogurt but one of the ingredients required is yogurt? That’s revolutionary.

            You need like two tablespoons of yoghurt per liter of milk. Just cook the milk beforehand and let it cool to about 45°C. Mix in the yoghurt and put it in an oven with the light on for a few hours. Voilà!
