What the gently caress kind of Chinese buffets have pizza? Unless Chinese pizza is some sort of white person slang for like, scallion pancakes or something.

Edit: I'm not sure if this is AFP or just FP, but it made my chest hurt and oh god the sodium.

Any large one anywhere. Some kids and adult weirdos will refuse to go unless there is bad pizza, terrible French fries with off-brand ketchup, and chicken nuggets. Then you lose a whole group because one person doesn't like (won't try) any of the "foreign food"

this is an unbelievably tired joke but in this case its true. A remote rural town I lived in had some liquor stores and an Indian restaurant all run by an Indian family from New York. Why the gently caress they left new york and settled there is beyond me, unless they were hiding from somebody. One day I saw that the restaurant had a lunch buffet and I couldnt believe my luck finding an Indian lunch buffet in this poo poo smear of a town. Well I went inside and guess what. The buffet had fried catfish, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, boiled green beans and other hick food available in half a dozen other places around town. My suspicion confirmed, no Indian food on the buffet because it would attract zero customers. The only regulars at this place were guys who would sit at the bar and pound bud lights where their families wouldnt think to look for them.

Another time I brought my uncle along as help on a work project and we ate at the little chinese buffet in town. He didnt know what to do with himself because he was almost 70 and had never had "Chinese" food let alone Chinese food. Thats why rural Chinese places have pizza chicken nuggets and fries.

It's not exactly a common thing in Japan but it isn't that rare either. The chickens for it are raised safely and it isn't dangerous. I don't know if it's any good but it's a thing.

I went back and checked, and the article is from last summer--not sure why they just tweeted about it. That said, a single person eating raw chicken is one too many people eating raw chicken. Gross.

As mentioned in this thread before, it's hard to get past the visceral this is not safe reaction to chicken sashimi or sushi. When I saw it (maybe twice in about 25 years), it wasn't straight-up raw, but it was definitely uncomfortably rare. The Japanese folks I was with acknowledged it was a thing, but were not exactly anxious to try it. It seems to be more common in some areas (known for their chicken) than in others.

Have a gross pic from Wikipedia. This is ready to eat:



There isn't enough grated garlic in the world to make that okay to me.

eta: Apparently there are 500 cases of food poisoning a year in Japan attributable to chicken sashimi (not just salmonella, but also Campylobacter infections), and there are no food hygiene standards for its preparation (it boils down to "Chicken? Cook it"). Sign me up!

I wonder if that rate is unusual. Unless what I've read is wrong it's not that chicken is inherently more dirty/dangerous than other meats, it's just the factory farming system makes gross birds. I've seen articles on chicken sashimi places where the chef raises the chickens himself and they're clean and fine. But any form of raw meat is going to carry a higher risk than cooked, even if it's still pretty safe like raw beef.

The article mentioned chicken being smaller and harder to clean than larger animals like pigs and cows, which lets bacteria, etc. hide out in nooks and crannies and survive the cleaning-prep process.

Chickens are vile creatures that lead lives of sin and only once they've been cleansed by purifying flames, or "fried" in biblical terms, should they be eaten.

Chicken sashimi is pretty good. It's washed and dried so it's not slimy. Thigh meat has a texture that's rather close to fatty tuna. I wasn't a fan of the gonads but the liver was nice.
