Also mint, I think, the aroma is supposed to put things off eating it.

But yeah that thing that makes you cry when you cut it? Doesn't want to be eaten! Amazingly.

Oh sure when I go around attacking people with a knife they're all like "no please don't I have a family" but if that was true why would you taste like pork??? Checkmate liberals.

Every grim dark science fiction and fantasy author has written a scene where the protagonists smell the delicious odor of pork, the fat crackling over the fire wafting through the pines. Salivating, they approach the campsite cautiously when they realize, drat idgaf I'm hungry what's done is done and I'm having some. We will serve the cause of mankind in a different way in the morning after I've had some of this delicious feast.

I heard that burning human flesh was pretty distinctive smell. To the point that one of the biggest crematoriums in california was easily discovered burning bodies improperly by a holocaust survivor.

They start out only a little tasty, but then they get centuries of cultivation to give higher and more potent yields. Agriculture is a hell of a drug.

I don't know if the almost totally fatal poison is weirder than the chemical that simulates pain.

A) All y’all cannibal-curious people in this thread should read the novel A Certain Hunger.

B) The reason German émigrés to the US switched from eating pork Mett to eating raw beef “cannibal sandwiches” is that the US has historically had issues with rampant trichinosis on pig farms, which only really got under control in the last 30 or so years.

Just eat the drat apple skins y'all.

It's me, I'm the weirdo that makes my apples pies, crisps, cobblers, and various other appley baked goods with the skins still on my apples. I like the different texture and taste the skins. Bonus points are that the skins are high in antioxidants and other good for you poo poo.

Depends on the apple, but when just eating an apple as is, the peel has a lot of flavor.

This is fine if you're safely handling and grinding fresh meat, but too many people use store bought ground beef so it's better to just advise against it across the board.

i don't like peel on dried apples. the rest of the time i will happily eat the peel

as His Divine Shadow noted, my apple peeler setting is apparently messed up, and today it didn't want to peel at all so i just left the peel on

here are a couple pieces, see the pointy parts, sometimes they are sharp!

we get an apple CSA so every year we get like 60lbs of apples so we have to do a lot with them, but usually when we peel them we bake the skins with some salt/cinnamon/brown sugar into little crispy snacks that are surprisingly good

Some goon needs to make a new Waffle images, link it to SA membership so outsiders cant use it, and it must be a lot cheaper/easier in 2020 than when Waffle was around. cost wise and load wise (pretty sure these a lot fewer users on here now)

my parents used to do something like this, and when the plumbers inevitably came to give them "the talk" and showed them a football-sized fatberg that had blocked the main drain, they now religiously spread the word and have even worked out how to store used cooking oil and fat for proper disposal. i'm so proud of them

Community sponsored agriculture. We pay an orchard up front at the beginning of the season and then they give us apples at the end.

I like to always bake a few extra potatoes when I do, let them cool, cut them, scrape the innards out and freeze them for potato skins some other time.

Nah, it's mostly water. It evaporates fine, but ideally you'd brown like a third of that amount at a time.
