I try to only eat eggs on the weeks that they are healthy and not the weeks that they are killing you.

Grilling and smoking give you cancer, too. Interestingly, you can make a filter out of a type of kitty litter that not only dramatically cuts down on cancer-causing chemicals in smoked food, but also makes it taste better

I have just discovered that greek yogurt can basically replace mayonnaise for me entirely. It won't make a massive change, but I don't view mayo as the healthiest thing to eat so I'm glad to cut it out.

The slight tanginess and creaminess work really well.

It also makes a better sour cream than sour cream imo. And it’s cheaper.

Do you guys soak your rice 30 mins before cooking? Does it give it a better texture? This is the first I’m hearing this

Mainly because I enjoy the ritual of it, I’ve never tested whether it makes a difference Serious Eats posted:What about soaking? Soaking rice is supposed to be a useful method to reduce cooking time by facilitating water absorption and starch swelling up front. To test this concept, I cooked soaked (2 hours), rinsed, and unrinsed samples of rice using Souza’s method. In comparison to the rinsed rice control sample, the unrinsed rice was stickier and more dusty tasting. The soaked rice was softer and showed less distinct grains than the control. I attribute the texture of the soaked rice to an increased water-to-rice ratio: After weighing the drained soaked rice prior to cooking, I found that the rice absorbed up to 15 percent of water by weight. Was soaking worth it here? Not in this case. I don’t think it delivered a significantly superior result for the amount of time invested.

Do any of ya'll pre-make veggie dressing? Like, I'm eating more and more stuff I just mix with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then bake. Any reason not to just whip up a bottle of that dressing and store it at room temp?

If it’s only oil and s&p I don’t really think you’ll be saving that much time by batching it. And then you’d have to worry about spice distribution. It’s a lot easier to get the right amount of salt and pepper in the right places if they’re not suspended in oil.

Hello everyone I am a time traveler from the year 2123 here to tell you all that in the future most animals have been destroyed by diseases and now we eat cricket as our main source of protein They come in many delicious flavors. This one is curry flavored. Cricket is dried and powderized, no discernible body parts   Your future culinary destiny awaits!

The cricket/bug thing is funny to me, because I'm not that opposed to eating them at all and have frequently been kind of interested in seeing if I'd enjoy a bug based dish. It's not really that gross to me or anything. But the people trying to sell them as the food of the future also simultaneously charge a fortune for it and tbh it's not all that appealing. The gas station across the street from me briefly had an entire stand full of bug based snacks like chili lime crickets etc. and I didn't see a single one of them ever move. I asked the clerk and she had never seen anyone buy one and she said no. The stand has since disappeared. But it was also like $5 for half an ounce of dried crickets. They try to sell it as some cheap sustainable protein but at this point in time I honestly don't see how it's viable or anything beyond a novelty/ gross out thing. Cricket evangelist companies can't seem to source them at a sane price at all. A+ cute dog btw.

it makes sense that the economies of scale are just not there yet when it comes to making bugs to eat in countries that don't eat a lot of bugs. just looked up cricket flour on amazon and it's multiple dollars per ounce lol there's also ways various bugs fit into sustainable food production that don't ever involve mass producing them, just using them as a way to recycle agricultural waste. like i was watching a video of a coffee farmer in Indonesia who had a terrifying bug-tent where he'd throw spent coffee cherries and inoculate them with soldier fly larvae, not because anyone's eating those flies but because their maggots would consume the spent fruit and then chickens turn the maggots into calories and fertilizer eke out fucked around with this message at 14:33 on Jan 20, 2023 |

Yeah exactly. I could see it shifting somewhat in the direction of being affordable if demand increased, but it's just funny to me how companies are choosing to market this stuff. I've read and listened to multiple interviews with cricket producers and they always try to sell it as this thing that we should get used to now, because eventually it's going to be the only option or something. I'd just like one of them to actually explain the logistics of a world where it makes more sense to farm 5000 crickets over a single lb of chicken, beef or pork because thats what it takes to make a pound of cricket product (which currently costs $40-$50). Submarine Sandpaper posted:Wait until this guy learns what a shrimp is. Not sure how this relates at all to a post where I'm saying I'm interested in insect based foods, but the outrageous prices don't line up with the narrative the companies that produce them are pushing, but ok.

Because they're bugs OP. Once people figure out grubs are delicious and can overcome eating a cricket taco, they'll be more widely available than in larger cities or some professional sports arenas. Who hasn't had a chocolate covered ant? I thought that was a part of childhood.

You can also just go out and get bugs. You don't need to buy them from a startup or something.

The biggest dumb thing with eating crickets is that they're still less sustainable and healthy than lentils and lentils are delicious.
