I don't think he's asking if it'll kill him, he's asking what he can do with plain ground beef he's already cooked.

Thanks for the attempted save, but no.

Look, I KNOW its fine, it smelled fine, 4 day thaw is no big deal, etc. etc.
I was just curious about exactly how I might die if I were to eat seriously rotten beef.

Like, I know how you can get sick from contamination from someone not washing their hands, or making GBS threads in the fields or whatever, but what if I had otherwise clean beef, and just left it in my fridge too long? What's the poison?

The big one with ground beef is E Coli but there's a huge variety of foodborne illnesses.

you can fake sour cream by curdling cream with an acid somehow

otherwise if you have something cultured like buttermilk or certain yogurts you can make your own on the counter in a day or two with cream.

you can sub with yogurt most times as well

Sodastream is easy but really screws you on the refills. I think it comes out to almost the same as just buying soda in the long run.

I strongly suggest getting a food grade co2 tank and a pressure regulator. It’s like $200 up front but after that it’s pennies per liter of bubble juice

$115 for me + $35 per tank refill, 18 months going and still on my first! Serious Eats build guide



  • Cheaper than a sodastream after just one tank.
  • For some, more important than price is you can go up to 60 psi vs SodaStream's 15 psi. Regular soda or soda water is anywhere from 18-35 psi depending on brand, so SS will always seem substandard.
  • It's also more flexible - SS's design of their pressure relief gets clogged in the open position if you try to carbonate non-water (wine, juice, cocktails), causing you to not even reach 15 psi any more.
  • More convenient than buying soda if you don't care about brands. Try different simple syrups and citruses!

The only four downsides I can imagine:
  • Hesitation of housemates to bomb-looking thing
  • If you treat it wrong, it is a bomb
  • You can rupture bottles if they're super weak like normal water bottles or degraded soda bottles
  • A slow leak in an enclosed space (e.g. a car on a long drive) can lead to dizziness / blackout / suffocation

If you're smart it's basically no risk but it's worth the word of caution I think.

e: another tip: charge a 2L plastic bottle, then decant into a glass swingtop bottle or two. The carbonation easily escapes plastic over the course of a week but not glass!

Oh yeah, if you're building a system I'd find your gas source before buying a tank. Your vendor may just want to give you an already filled cylinder instead and you just return and replace that with another each time instead of refilling your own tank. Most gas vendors I've been around prefer this system. In that case it's about $40 cheaper than the list posted above.

Ideally you want to buy a "5 pound" CO2 cylinder.

I currently have a very very old small 4 cup cuisinart food processor. The plastic is completely yellowed but the motor still works fine. The issue is that the little plastic bit holding the cover in place is almost fully worn away. I've thought about getting a replacement bowl, but its expensive and honestly I kinda want a bigger model.

Here's the catch - I need to be able to have both a small bowl for things like marinades as well as a full size bowl which i'd be using for things like cutting zucchini and whatnot. Preferably it would be able to handle a dough as well. (I may have just spent like half an hour kneading some pizza dough) I saw that the current 13 cup cuisinart model has a small bowl attachment but I can't seem to find any video or review of the small bowl attachment. Does it work without leaking? Also, any other options for food processors that either take multiple bowls or have an attachment?

what you want is the 14-cup cuisinart. if you absolutely need something smaller use your blender; you can successfully make sauces with down to about 1.25 cup of ingredients in this food processor. unfortunately i can't recommend the 14-cup without reservations: be very careful with the plastic bowl and lid parts, theyre fragile and very expensive to replace.

My wife suddenly needs to be on a diet free of folic acid. The doctors gave us a very vague list of things to avoid.

List of poo poo we can't eat posted:

Avoid these foods that are high in folic acid:
Legumes:
 Black, kidney, navy, or pinto beans
 Black-eyed peas
 Chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
 Lentils
 Peanuts
Grains:
 Fortified breakfast cereal
 Fortified oatmeal
 Wheat Germ
Fruits:
 Oranges
 Orange juice
 Strawberries
Vegetables:
 Asparagus
 Avocado
 Brussels sprouts
 Broccoli or Cauliflower
 Corn
 Green peas
 Okra
 Spinach, Kale or other dark leafy vegetables
Meat:
 Liver

poo poo we can eat in very small quantities posted:

Limit the amounts of these foods; eat only small amounts:
 Bread/Rolls Grits
 Crackers Flour tortillas
 Noodles Cookies
 Pasta Rice

These are basically a list of the things my wife loves to eat which means she's gonna have a really lovely time for a few months. I'm hoping to keep her spirits up by cooking decent meals in spite of this. Has anyone had to deal with this dietary restriction before? The internet is full of suggestions for exactly the opposite of what we need.

Looks like potatoes aren’t on the list!

Beyond just the obvious stuff like fries, mashed potatoes, potato curries, potato salad, etc... Potato starch is great for battering/frying stuff instead of wheat:rice flours.

Edit: Eggs also appear to be absent from the list and low in folate (that’s the same thing right?).

That’s a brutal list at first glance, but I’m pretty sure that I would love to have a doctor tell me to eat more meat, eggs and potatoes.

Double edit: Mustard is also super low in folate. Eat super mustardy potato egg salad all day err’day.

I think searching for paleo stuff (nomnompaleo is good) will get you pretty far in terms of what you can do with meat, just swap out vegetables/fruit for ones she can do. Searching for gluten-free might also help with stuff like swapping out enriched flour for almond flour. Quinoa, barley, wheat berries are good functional subs for beans, rice, or pasta.

If you're worried about sodium, drink less of the broth after (though there is still a good amount of sodium in the noodles themselves) but recognize you are still going to be exceeding your RDI and if you have health issues that require low sodium then don't do it too often.
