Would you ride it?

E: are buses any safer over there than driving anyway? I mean with the whole walking to a stop, getting on and off and crossing the road and so on.

I would, but I'd be terrified the whole time. I really WANT a scooter, but Mrfishback is not a fan of the idea. I can't say that I blame him; I spent fifteen minutes this morning looking for my HDMI cable and it was in my pocket.

The buses are actually pretty good. The drivers are safer than most.

It's a 40-minute walk to my workplace, and there's a moment every morning where I think, "Gee, I really almost just died!" but tbh it's a better kick in the pants than a cup of coffee. I love China, but the roads will probably kill me.

Ah! I stand corrected. Still, my point stands that a major magazine publisher shouldn't be churning out pix worse than what my 2010 Virgin pay-as-you-go phone could.

Not to mention, entering "bottom round roast" in their search box yielded me a peanut butter and jelly tart recipe :psyduck:. I'm sure that would make for some AFP (if you tried to incorporate your 3 pounds of beef into it somehow). C'mon, Epicurious, get yo poo poo together.

Authenticity with purists only goes so far when the cost of a can of kidney beans or uncooked beans is dirt cheap, I've worked overnight at work, and really would like my one bowl of food to fill me up in one go.

So a few weeks ago I was visiting Japan and when I passed a Burger King there I couldn't pass it up to sacrifice myself for the AFP thread.

I present you the kuro taisho burger. http://www.eataku.com/post/127577935674/burger-king-japans-black-burgers-are-back


It pretty much looked like on the ad, so that was a big plus.


And taste wise not that bad. Just your typical bland burger from BK.

The hashbrown was ok, not really my top choice of stuff to put into a burger. The black sauce had a fishy aftertaste but I assume it came from the squid ink.

The aftereffects of the burger were much more interesting as my poop really did turn to a really dark greenish color. Also my left middle finger swelled up really bad and I couldn't really bend it for a few days, tho that may have been the insect bite that I got there at the same day.

I remember when the "controversy" over the green poop first appeared. I'm pretty sure the black color was just achieved by pouring on green food coloring until it was oversaturated to black.

File this one under the "would, but dear god the picture sucks" category.

I like to cook, and epicurious.com used to be my go-to when finding a recipe. The site has gone to complete poo poo since Bon Appetit magazine folded, as evinced by this result I just got while searching for inspiration for what to do with a bottom round roast.



Really? This is supposed to be a recipe by Mario Batali. The picture is a blurry, poorly composed mess of beef, too-shiny sauce, and "garnish? never heard of it". I expect this crap from "cooking 4 bae" tweets, not a Conde motherfucking Nast site.

Not the most horrifying thing we've seen itt, to be sure, but it's truly anti food porn for me. I WAS inspired --- ie, horny to cook, to go with the food + porn analogy --- but now I'm totally turned off and angry.
I posted about this earlier in the thread, but Cook Pad has a similar problem. It used to be a site for simple, wholesome Japanese recipes, but it's since become home to the most Midwest white-bread, soccer-mom/trailer trash dump meals. I trawl through it on the slim chance that I'll find something good, but mostly it's for thread content now.
"Pork Chops with Tarragon Onion Gravy"

And an explicable side of instant ramen.

"Fresh homemade tagliatelle"


"Slightly(????) Savory Snack"

Wanna know how to enjoy this? Dip pieces of white bread in egg, pan fry them, then top with lovely mozzarella. Eat and cry.


Just cookies made with boxed cake mix, but you couldn't expend the effort to at least plate them before taking a crap picture?

By meat sauce you mean ground/minced meat.
