I actually find it really easy to imagine Katherine Hepburn saying all that. Actually, Katherine Hepburn as a gangster lead in a lesbian pulp novel sounds like the kind of over-thought fanfic you end up reading at 3am over a pancake combo.

Katherine Hepburn and Ingrid Bergman as two sides of a gang war in a lesbian pulp movie. Humphrey Bogart’s there too. He doesn’t get either girl but it’s still nice to have him around all the same

I want to go back to why they grow rhubarb in a dark room in the UK. Here in  we grow it outdoors and it seems to work fine? Or is it like robins, where two roughly visually similar but biologically very different things are called by the same name?Thank you in advance. I knew a dude in grad school who was from Nottingham and who said he had worked at an underground mushroom farm on the edge of Sherwood Forest. I don’t want that to be fake

Supposedly it grow larger in no or low light. No idea if that's true. Edit: they explain it under "cultivation" on this page. I guess the aren't grown inside entirely. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhubarb_Triangle Air Skwirl has a new favorite as of 22:44 on Dec 25, 2020 |

They grow outdoors/in light as normal for a while, and then they shove them into a dark shed. Plant goes: Oh! It's dark here! I should try to grow out of here. And they dedicate most of their resources to just growing as hard as they can in the hope that they can reach some more light. Otherwise they'll spend their energy and resources growing their root system to get bigger and better for the next hear. Basically they're tricking the plants into growing the parts they want to harvest, instead of the roots. And since they'll have a couple years of energy stored up in the root networks, they can grow pretty quick when they need to. It just sounds like magic if you disregard the part where they grow the plants for years in normal lighting,(thus giving them an energy reserve) and then just pop 'em in the dark to get as much rhubarb as possible. e: A lot of plants exhibit this behavior, because it understandably helps when other plants grow above them and cast shade. Ever had a houseplant that grows really tall, with few leaves, while one of a same type in the window is pretty squat and has a ton of leaves in comparison? That's the plant trying to reach more sunlight, and burning all it's energy on growing tall. SubNat has a new favorite as of 22:58 on Dec 25, 2020 |

Thank you! So, why don’t we do it in the US? We seem to grow enough rhubarb the regular way. (Disclaimer: I hate rhubarb so honestly don’t pay attention to it.)

Forced Rhurbarb is a slightly different product, in the UK its almost exclusively grown in a single area. I would guess there's no market for forced rhubarb in the US, hence you don't grow it.

Go to any of the LAN threads for states in the south, BBQ is going to be the most divisive topic you can throw out there. People have opinions about BBQ, and those will not be shaken.

Brisket is the state food of Texas. There exists no acceptable version that results in whatever that is. A shameful meat.

Every part of every country has a dish over which the natives will engage in fisticuffs while debating the True and Honorable preparation of it. Everywhere has its own equivalent, and in most of the southern US it's BBQ. That tweet may harm his re-election chances.

The only thing I will argue about is that a grill should not be called a barbeque. Sorry Canadians.

Here in Sherwood forest is actually a bit of a distance from Nottingham but the city has many many caves so it's quite possibly true. Nottingham caves are great to visit it you ever go there.

Different growing techniques make different products. Something you may be more familiar with is cannabis. Controlled cannabis in a darkroom with clear light/dark cycles vs outdoor cannabis are very different. There isn't a "better" one they are just different and people will pay a premium for both depending on how you swindle them.

That meat hasn't been grilled. It looks oven-cooked, based on how the sauce has coagulated and the lack of mess on the dish. I've had oven-cooked ribs that aren't a monstrosity before, but there's no saving those. It does look like meatloaf recipe ... on ribs. Worse, the tray these were baked on wasn't good enough for serving them and they decided upon an even fancier piece of glassware.

The dish is way too clean for that. It was baked in a dish *like* that dish. Possibly identical. But it was transferred to that dish.

My understanding is that the hardcore revanchist faction in Texas is mostly neo-carpetbaggers. Indigenous Texas politics is weird as hell and absolutely Republican, but the new strain builds off that and like all new adopters takes the cowboy Texan aesthetic and Republicanism to the nth degree. That's Cruz's base and presumably this dude's as well. So, he needs to do a BBQ. That his BBQ is an offense to proper Texans doesn't matter, the fact that he is doing a BBQ is sufficient for his base.

Pretty sure it was baked in that dish, it was put in the oven raw, without any sort of sauce or seasonings, then cooked uncovered until any color was removed from it, then topped with the sauce, maybe pure ketchup, maybe a heavily ketchup based barbecue sauce mix, then put back in under the broiler for a few minutes to extract any remaining moisture. I can feel it.
