Nutrition. It’s sometimes embarrassing how much I don’t know about nutrition. So far, what I gather is that taste and health benefits are inversely proportional.
My wife is pretty health-food conscious, so I’m confident she points me in the right direction. But I’m like Bill Cosby with chocolate cake. Eggs! Milk! Wheat! That’s nutrition!
Your recipe includes Rohypnol?
To be picky it is the first full moon after Mar 21 (the equinox can happen on the 19-21) – And it is calculated differently by Eastern Orthodox folks.
Rabbit hole:

I am content not knowing how sausages are made.
I’m much more interested in conceptual knowledge than factual. I like knowing how things work, whether it be car engines or the large-scale structure of the universe. I don’t necessarily care about any one specific engine or any one specific universe.
All conceptual knowledge requires some facts to back it up, like (for instance) the names and properties of the particles. But quite a lot of facts are totally disconnected from any conceptual knowledge, like the names and properties of various celebrities. I have no interest in these, and frankly wish I could erase the stuff I’ve learned by osmosis to make more room for more interesting things.
Electronics.
As a geek of many disciplines, both in depth and passing fancy, I occasionally have involved myself in things that briefly associate themselves with electronics, or even the more accessible Arduino / Raspberry Pi / programmable boards movement. I am happy to never figure those out, and leave them to their own hobbyists.
Technically it’s on the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the vernal equinox. However, the vernal equinox is defined as March 21st regardless of when it actually occurs. And the full moon is defined as the ecclesiastical full moon which is the 14th day of the month of the ecclesiastical lunar calendar. The days of those months roughly alternate between 29 and 30 days. (There are 235 months in 19 regular years).
No true astronomers need to be consulted to determine the date (though they did help set up the system).
The Easter (called Paschal) full moon can fall on any date from March 21 to April 18. So Easter can be any date from March 22 to April 25. It will be on April 25th in 2038. It won’t fall on March 22 until 2285. It was on my birthday, the year before I was born, and hasn’t been since. It will again on 2027; I plan on making that.
So yeah if you don’t want to know all that, it’s fine.
I’ve built two electric guitars - Telecasters in all ways except having the Fender logo. I soldered stuff but have no clue what I was doing. Electronics are a mystery and the fact I got them both working great is gobsmacking to me.
I had career employment for 15 years in IT. Installating, configuring, troubleshooting and fire fighting. That was enough. Nowadays I have a reasonably high performance workstation at home but have zero interest in how it works or current PC technology. I am so happy to just be a dumb (well, not too dumb) user.
And related, I am happily ignorant of internet social media.
On the last twelve or so Easter Sundays, I’ve sent my brother a text message, “I have risen” first thing in the morning. No idea why I started nor why I continue.
How hot dogs are made
See, I’m the opposite. I like to know what burned, how many died and how the traffic is going to get worse on Broadway, and I could care less about national news. I’m not even sure if Bush got re-elected last November.
Dennis
whats in the infamous jack in the box taco and how they make them … I don’t even think god himself wants to know whats in those things … that’s not to say I wont polish a dozen or so off in the right condition
“I am risen” would be more accurate, if you’re playing off the Easter saying.
Indeed!
Got it in one. 
You didn’t miss anything. Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush isn’t up for re-election until 2018.
My family laughs at me for never knowing when holidays are coming (“What? Thanksgiving is next Thursday? I’d better get a turkey!”).
One time I realized what my problem was and replied “If Jesus hadn’t risen from the dead, I’d know my holidays.” As a kid, my teacher couldn’t explain when Easter was, so I gave up on all holidays. And frankly I now have a mental blind spot, where even if I was given a wall-sized infographic on “When Easter Will Be Next March or April” I would promptly forget it.
And this is antithetical to every other area of my life. I over-analyze and make up mnemonics for everything. Music, electronics, dog breeds, Star Trek/Wars/Lord/Search, Post-WW2 Micro-cars, taxonomy of dinosaurs and Pokemon…
Oh, and astronomy: I don’t understand why my wife doesn’t even want to remember the order of the planets (and who doesn’t have the major moons of Saturn at their fingertips?)
But Labor Day? Martin Luther King Day? Not even going to try…
When computers first become everyday common, I made a pact: I would learn how to work them, but I’m damn if I would ever learn how they work.
I tell my Intro To Computer Graphics students that’s okay. So many of them worry that they can’t learn Photoshop because they, in the words of one hippie dude, “don’t understand computers on the insides”.
I asked the class to name NASCAR drivers. Everyone at least knew Jeff Gordon. Then I asked them to name anyone from his pit crew…
