I get genuinely irritated when people claim to be allergic to MSG.

You know what also irritates the ever-loving piss out of me? The need to have flavoured EVERYTHING. No, I don't need wasabi, or BBQ on my almonds. Salt is fine. Roasted is fine. PLAIN is fine. They're loving nuts. Eat them. They have a boat-load of taste to begin with. I also don't need my soy/almond milk to be flavoured with vanilla. SILK I AM LOOKING AT YOU, YOU FUCKS. Even their unsweetened and plain ones have vanilla in. Why is that necessary? Trader Joe's has an unsweetened unflavoured, but I'm living in America's taint. The nearest Trader Joe is a 60 mile drive. No thanks. Someone in chat mentioned that they're now adding poo poo to applesauce. APPLE SAUCE. It's apples, goddamnit. Why does it need to have cherry vanilla flavour? IT IS FREAKING APPLE SAAAAUCE. Cinnamon I can understand to an extent, but how loving long does it take to shake on some powdered cinnamon. Come on, people. And yoghurt. Listen, I'm sure that people are addicted to sugar, but the poo poo you buy in the store does not taste like yoghurt. It tastes like sugar and cloying choking sweetness. It's loving vile. I've eaten yoghurt all my life (that my mother would make every day). I still make the stuff at home. Frankly, the stuff from the store is utter and complete poo poo. Now they're selling artificial flavour for WATER. Hnnnnngggggg This is never going to end is it? Soon we're going to have to have flavoured SALT. Oh wait.

I just bought skirt steak from a very very shady looking hispanic market for $5.35 per pound. Please pray for me. Is it proper to warn my guests or should they just assume any food I prepare is suspect?

Can someone my age or older back me up on something? The other day I was talking to my GF about red pistachios, and she thought I had gone crazy. In her hippy-dippy upbringing in the 70s, she never ate anything but uncolored pistachios, whereas where I grew up they were ALWAYS dyed bright red. The ones they sell at the supermarket these days are no longer stained, so I have no proof. Fuckers would stain your hand red! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-TCvaNuKNQ

Who wants a single tortilla, anyway? Or you can just combine four ingredients and use an electric tortilla press, which exists already. The Rotimatic is far more exciting, IMO.

Who honestly has a hard time making tortillas. Takes like 5min to throw the dough together, and another 5 to make a dozen tortillas.

For some reason, people think tofu is a meat replacement, and only eaten by vegetarians because they're craving meat. People think tofu is somehow similar to meat in any way other than also being full of protein. I don't get it.

It seems like an obvious mistake to make if you are uninformed about tofu and vegetarianism I see, that makes sense. I guess because I grew up eating tofu as, well, tofu, I think of it as its own food first. TVP is better as a meat replacement, texture wise, but the name creeps people out.

Back in 2008, I managed to find unflavoured soy yoghurt at Dean and Deluca's (seriously, that store is amazing). I made a batch of yoghurt from it with soy milk & coconut cream (for the added fat; the best yoghurt I've eaten was from buffalo milk, which has way more fat than cow's milk). I've been keeping that culture going ever since. I keep a small amount in my freezer in case of disasters or emergencies. EDIT: Jesus gently caress that thing is going to be $$$. quote:We’re still working out the details. The machine is expected to cost under $300 and the pods will cost less than $1 each. dino. fucked around with this message at 13:07 on May 31, 2014 |
