Its not no flavor. The various light aromatics usually kept in by the rind (and the cause of why ripping open an orange makes the smell jump everywhere: theyre quite volatile) get destroyed or lost during various processes to store/concentrate/deaerate etc. Itll still taste like oranges, just not fully and completely like one because youre missing all the olfactory portion of the taste.

Panfilo posted:In addition to Orthorexia, I think these raw foods people may have some undiagnosed illness which they are convinced is cured by eating raw /gluten free/etc. I mean that's the only thing I can think of. All the militant vegans/raw food/paleo adherents I've ever met could indulge in their myopic diets specifically because they live in a modern industrialized nation with a food system built on the back of global trade and all of the human and environmental exploitation that comes along with it. They also live in a nation where they have access to (and can afford) quality multivitamins produced by big evil corporations to cover up the holes in their lovely diets. It has everything to do with how much better they are than the rest of us. There's also awesome vegans like dino. who are totally not part of that assessment. That Fit Vegan Ginger girl vanished from the internet a while ago - I hope that means she's undergoing treatment for her eating disorder. She made a 'cookbook' that is just as horrifying as you can imagine.

I really hate people who go to a Cambodian or Vietnamese place and are all "CHOPSTICKS PLEASE I AM SO GOOD WITH THEM" when I'm pretty sure the answer in Cambodia and Vietnam is basically "shove it in your foodhole and get out" Like there's chopsticks or there ain't, yes they keep some for people like you, you are trying to eat non-sticky rice with chopsticks, you are going to ruin your shirt, I hope you do. Not all Asian countries use chopsticks! If they give you a spoon, use the spoon. You're like 30, you know how to do things.

The accepted method of eating non sticky rice with chopsticks is to hold the bowl to your mouth and use the chopsticks as a shovel, it's totally a thing and I don't get why this is suddenly something to ridicule

How are you supposed to eat Pho if not by using chopsticks to lift huge tangles of noodles into the air at full arm extension and drop them sloppily into your spoon

Depending on the country, you eat some things with chopsticks and some things with spoons and even forks. One of the only things I preferred about living in Korea over living in Japan was getting to eat my rice with a spoon. Also, in Thailand, you're supposed to use your spoon to cut things and your fork doesn't go in your mouth. You use the fork to put food on your spoon.

LITERALLY A BIRD posted:I had a friend who could eat cooked apples but not raw ones. Or maybe the other way around, I don't remember. Anyway that's my story I'm this person, though not literally. I'm not your IRL friend. A lot of raw fruit gives me digestive murder in the same way as lactose intolerance. Allegedly it has to do with the fructose concentration which is harder to digest than glucose and if you don't have the proper enzyme you don't digest it, but your gut bacteria does just as it does with lactose. Both are sugars that are a step above the absolute simplest which is glucose. So you get the same discomfort as lactose intolerance because it's essentially the same thing. Cooking fruit breaks down the fructose into glucose for you. Apples have incredibly high fructose concentration so they're often the worst fruit for a person whose liver doesn't produce the proper enzyme. Or at least that's what I'm told. And yes, I am both lactose and fructose intolerant. My liver is garbage.

She made a 'cookbook' that is just as horrifying as you can imagine. No, she just set all of her accounts to private. I saw a recent picture of her, she is still the same size and is apparently still obsessed with the gym. Also, not to be a bummer, but a lot of anorexics will make food deliberately unappealing because either they don't plan on eating it or they want to eat it but they don't want to feel like they could finish it.

Probably not all that weird and I haven't tried it with booze yet but one I like goes like this; One can of lemon lime soda(probably would do a little less if one were to add booze) Orange juice(exact amount to taste) A splash or two of grenadine(mostly for color, but it definitely tastes better than without) Properly mixed it has the color of and tastes a lot like one of those sherbet pushup pops

On the topic of cocktails, I had horchata with dark rum recently and that's a tasty drink.

Yeah there's pretty much all kinds of cutlery in Malaysia everywhere. Most places will have backup cutlery in case you dont know how to use what's provided. Also in Indian places it's bread to handle food, then you wipe your hads on it and eat it. yum. Now what's up with metal chopsticks? I've never even seen those around before I started eating Korean.

Last Christmas we drank a ton of Snowballs (advocaat + Sprite), which were awesome. Drinks that were okay, but possibly only because I was already tipsy: peppermint schnapps + milk; straight creme de banane; akvavit + Coke Bad ideas: that time my roommate used leftover eggnog (with lots of rum already mixed in) to make mashed potatoes; a Christmas house party where we ended up mixing "cocktails" in my buddy's beer bong that consisted of whatever was left of the other drinks (peach schnapps, the aforementioned eggnog, Bud Light, blue curacao, mulled apple cider, grenadine, possibly Bailey's?, probably other crap I'm forgetting)
