SubG posted:I think the house preparation in GWS is to clumsily wound the lobster before vivisecting it, rough chop the meat for some reason, then poach in butter until rubbery. I'm not a fan of wounding so I do what I normally do with foods that move: stick it in a burlap sack and swing it relentlessly at a wall. Still trying to defeat my old enemy Jell-O

As an adherent of New Nordic Cuisine I'dont want to destroy the natural and delicate flavours of the lobster by cooking it. Instead I consume it still alive and twitching, shell and all.

mich posted:He is saying that wishing people couldn't have dogs is ironic given how just as annoying and disruptive children can be in public to the people who are not their parents. Generally when children are annoying in public you can blame it more on the parents, just as when dogs are annoying it is seldom their fault but due to having bad owners. Actually I had just gotten home from a bar were we sat next to some hipster couple who brought there yelling loving kid and then had the gall to complain about all the silent (and cuter than their kid) dogs that other people had brought. What I am saying is that I hate kids and love dogs.

Well you're allowed to feel that way. A lot of kids are awful. But let's not get into a debate about the finer details here. SubG posted:That's dumb.

Hey, Phummus, I'm in Ontario too, on vacation with patents, having done family reunion stuff for brother's 40th. Had good lunch in Collingwood today. Wife and i just took on parents at scrabble. They were winning. We got a J with the last letters. We made JOINTED on a triple to finish and win the game. Very satisfying way to end.

The last 8 or 10 times I've drunk red wine (basically during the last couple of months or so), I've had a bad reaction to it, getting nauseous and a rash - what the hell? I've got no reaction to white wine... Can you all of a sudden become allergic to red-wine? Also - the kids had a summer project.. sorry for the lovely cell phone pics.. She is clearly considering the jugular! And done!

Vegetable Melange posted:sulfites are used in both red and white wines during cold stabilization. It could be a reaction to wood tannins, which are more prevalent in reds. That was the word I was looking for! Tannins, misspoke earlier.

Then I should have the same reaction from anything that spends some time being stored on wood, right? I will test this by drinking copious amounts of Whisky now. Also, if I am to be referred to as a piece of female clothing, I would prefer it being some sort of small clothes rather than a blouse.

I was one of those kids that had a full checkerboard on their back at the allergy test, but now the only thing I still avoid is fluke and flounder. Just be careful in case you get respiratory problems, HH. Those can get serious quickly; I should know, given that flounder sent me to the ER 3 times.

No, the tannins come from the non-grape plant matter that is present when the grapes are being squeezed/fermented. Red wines will have more of the stems and even a few of the leaves present during the pressing and first fermentation, which is where tannins come in. Which is not to say you shouldn't drink a lot of whisky!

Apparently there are tannins in stems but not in wood barrels hint: there are tannins in whisk(e)y, it is what gives it it's color (although lesser whiskies get their color from E150a)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_wine_headache Not conclusive, but they say tannins are a possible culprit. California reds also tend to be higher in tannins than French. I once went to a wine festival in LA and ended up getting a hangover without getting drunk.
