Duckbag posted:Chili without beans is weird to me though, where is that common? It is here in Texas. My family is from up north, so we've always put beans in chili. Down here, everyone tries to pass off greasy meat chunk soup as chili and it sucks.

That kind of chili works well as a condiment. Also http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Chili_con_carne

In Texas, our Chi'Li is a hearty and spicy meaty dish, as befitting a warrior preparing his path to Sto'Vo'Kor. If you want bland plant nodules with your meal, have some women prepare it in a separate bowl so that it will not sapp the vigor of those about to achieve glory through conquest.

Duckbag posted:I know Hasperat is literally just those tortilla wraps people serve as finger food at parties (at least that's what the prop was), but the mention of brine and the existence of "hasperat souffle" makes me picture it as one of those simple but challenging regional dishes that people associate with good home cooking. The whole conversation Ro has where the guy complains that no one makes it as spicy as the stuff he grew up with made me think of chili, or kimchi, or similar food where every family has their own special recipe and the store bought/replicated stuff just isn't the same. I always pictured Hasperat as being slightly fermented flatbread with a tangy flavor like sourdough or injera and plenty of spice. I'd have to assume based on context that the hasperat is not the tortillas but the filling (like the hummus mentioned above), and the tortilla is just the traditional delivery mechanism. Presumably you could serve hasperat over chips or on a bun or even on top of *gasp* meat.

My mothers chili was Texas style with beans. Hail Satan.Railing Kill posted:*Sees that this has already happened At some point Alpha became less of a "canon and canon only" wiki and more a "well it's not non-canon!  " Someone compared it to Wookiepedia at some point and yeah, pretty much.

I've come across chili without beans in the Midwest. There are people out there who insist chili is made without beans, and adding beans makes it chili WITH beans, which certainly won't beat my prized chili recipe of drowning ground mystery meat in sugary bbq sauce and a dash of cayenne pepper that sure is spicy for a white person! They also like to serve "Mexican food" with this beanless chili on it, which I can only assume is a translation error.

It's amusing to me that the engineering night shift is considered so lovely and terrible that whatever loser gets stuck with it is allowed to eat and chat with their buds over the intercom. If I remember right even Spock was all "drat Jim, dude just got the hell out of that post, you're really busting poor Riley's nuts here"

Riley is probably my favorite worthless crewman in all of TOS. The fidgety dude form Corbomite Maneuver and the world's worst psychiatrist from Dagger of the Mind are also strong contenders, but nothing beats the sheer gusto with which Riley takes to being space drunk. Also his singing. I'd count the third security officer to get vaporized by Nomad as being most incompetent (because seriously, how do you not see that coming at that point?), but, eh, it's not like redshirts are really people.

Seeing that screencap reminds me of how funny it is they put spray bottles everywhere in TOS, because I guess spray bottles looked super futuristic to 60's eyes.

There's a little side puzzle in the Star Trek 25th Anniversary game to figure out how to kill as many redshirts as possible.

The best part was there would be multiple ways to kill the redshirt in each episode. I can think of, like, three in the first one alone off the top of my head. And one of them was incredibly sadistic.

I always wondered what the food situation on the TOS Enterprise was. All I can think of is Trouble with Tribbles where Kirk uses the food processor to get his chicken sandwich and coffee (with extra tribble), but ST6 shows an actual kitchen.

There's a cook that calls up to the bridge in Charlie X, but by the time David Gerrold was working on The Trouble With Tribbles he was told by Gene Coon that there was no cook on the ship.
