This entire premise is wack because yes, bread rice and basically anything edible by humans has varying degrees of chewiness. Al dente means toothy and still slightly firm, not "raw pasta out of the box."

China invented pasta so they know best. We prefer "q" which is bouncy and pleasant https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/04/world/asia/taiwan-food-q-texture.html

There's nothing less pleasant (well, except maybe undercooked rear end) than undercooked pasta, so I'd rather cooks err on the slightly overcooked side.

Anecdotes are not the plural of data but, when at a sleep-over with my grade-school bestie the babysitter put the pasta on and then took us to the video rental shoppe there was a debate, came back late and it was slop just gone and we had to eat it, before watching a VHS tape A VHS TAPE! slathered in red sauce

Gripweed posted:Junk mail should be illegal especially the stuff that looks super official like you're getting a letter from court, or the ones with fake credit cards and fake checks in them. I mean, if they want to sell me on their scam loans, starting out with deception isn't the best way to do it. Do people just say "oh you guys, you got me, I thought I was getting my replacement credit card but I guess I have to take this 20000 dollar personal loan now since I spent this time opening it" or what?

That reminds me of an unpopular opinion that makes people say I like overcooked food: scrambled eggs/omelettes should have some browning on them and not be runny. It's just better that way, to me.

It's just better that way, to me. Technically speaking you should never eat runny eggs at all, ever. Eggs host salmonella so it increases your risk of food poisoning. I feel you on the scrambled eggs or omelette end of things but dippy eggs are good stuff.

I'm reasonably certain that eating like that on the reg will shorten your life but the number of those I eat will definitely be greater than zero.

Either way it depends on what turns you on, if you know what that is, and if you dare to seek it out. The actual physical sensation is secondary, if I'm in the wrong headspace, can barely enjoy it and have trouble coming even once.

Taco Bell is cheaper and better tasting than most other fast food options, and the fact that it's not "authentic" Mexican food is completely meaningless.

Gripweed posted:Taco Bell is cheaper and better tasting than most other fast food options, and the fact that it's not "authentic" Mexican food is completely meaningless. I actually do hate when people judge food based on “authenticity” Especially when it comes to say, chinese or mexican food in North America or indian food in the UK. It’s adapted to local ingredients and tastes but most of the dishes were in fact invented by immigrant chefs and are very often still made at restaurants owned and operated by immigrants or their descendants. Seems kind of insulting. And US-mexican dishes in particular are often descended from mexican-mexican dishes that the border moved over.

I've only had taco bell once in my life because my parents absolutely hated mexican food. I like mexican food a lot, but the taco bell I had that one time in college was just "ehh". Not nearly spicy/flavorful enough. As an adult I just don't go because when I get a mexican craving I'll just go to something like Moe's. No drive-through but it's a lot better, even with the obnoxious "welcome to moes" they force all their employees to shout out every time the door opens.
