the raid 2 is more of a conventional kung fu movie where everyone can fight a little or a lot and know what they're getting into, and the raid is police gruesomely stabbing poor people

help me out here? is it salty? fishy?

I'm very poor and live in a landlocked area, seafood is a literal luxury

they're little watery balls that pop when you bite through and they taste mostly salty and a little fishy, but the salty taste tastes like the sea and not just salt.

there's different kinds of fish roe but the actual caviar as most people know it is hella expensive so most of the time it's caviar substitute.

i've had russian blinis (aka crepes) with sturgeon caviar (aka the snooty kind) and man it's really good

especially if you're wasted on rooski standard and russian energy drinks



that's like the most cultural snobby food experience i ever did experience and it was awesome because a lot of my fellow packaged tourists were too hesitant to just start mashing it into their mouths and guzzling the free vodka shots


i guess i'm not that good at culture but it's delish

it's actually even more hosed up than that. the host could be bulimic, but the real good poo poo is happening with the audience: the people watching this pay for it - and they do it either because they are super lonely and just want someone to eat with, or because they are currently dieting and eat vicariously through the host. there's probably also some hosed up sexual aspect to watching a young woman eat a lot of food for some viewers, idk

she seems to be a competitive eater?

quote:

Kinoshita has also been featured on Japanese television program “Oogui” (大食い), where she travels to various restaurants around the country to eat enlarged portions of various restaurant’s signature dishes.

?!?

edit: lmao

A Japanese woman managed to scoff 137 bananas in a row - but her impressive feat ended up sparking a diplomatic row with Chinese people.

Yuka Kinoshita is known for consuming large quantities of various foods in one go for her YouTube channel.

But the food fan came under fire because she was eating bananas from the Philippines.

China is currently in dispute with the Philippines over banana production.

depends on the chippy, depends on the time of day. a good one will cook to order but when they're busy might have a few bits of fish pre-cooked, but they don't sit around for more than a few minutes.

the main difference is whether or not they use frozen fish, because that poo poo just doesn't work. also the hipster idiots who insist on making bad beer batter and pissing about with the chips. they got that poo poo right a hundred years before you were born, stop thinking you can improve it.

(also for some reason a lot of chippies have godawful pissweak vinegar, if it isn't clearing your nasal passages at 20 paces it's not fit for human consumption)

its generally sexual, i think? i dont rlly understand why but lets not pretend ppl arent creeps.
i can kinda understand the streaming a meal to like, eat with other people, i guess, but the way it gets weird y'know? weird specific foods and huge amounts and ughhh its creepy as poo poo

echinopsis posted:

well this is legit horrifying
here it's always cook to order, usually the fish are stored in a fridge/in ice but not frozen
i mostly order barramundi - its available fresh even inland, all the fishing lakes are stocked with them and they're super easy to farm, but usually on the coast pretty much anything is relatively good, at least in smaller cities? haven't had fish in sydney yet

fish and chip shops here don't often have vinegar here, but quite often we get a lemon and a lime with the order?
more places could do with spices/herbs to order. there was one place i used to go to up north where everything had herbs and spices on, + lemon juice, it was *perfect*, but its hard to find a place willing to do more than chuck stuff into a fryer and dust whatever they dredge up with chicken salt.

i'm not so sure about that. i mean, i just assume there's a large creep contingent with anything internet-related anyway, but i know it's popular with teenage girls (often on a diet) who will then watch another girl eat. basically what i'm saying is that it's hosed up on many levels

as goddamnedtwisto said it depends on the place usually you can tell by the price, if its £10+ its gonna be the real deal, much less than that and they are going to be cutting corners somewhere. kind of a shame that fish and chips have become a 'luxury' takeaway option, the real food of the people these days is super cheap fried chicken.

are you in London or something? Costs about £6.50 diwn here in wales, and that's fresh cooked. they even have a little whiteboard with when it was caught & the name of the boat, tho they could be lying out their arse for all i know.
