maple bacon seems like an easy and perfect flavour to get right, it's probably just maple flavouring and hickory smoke

Like the meat flavoured crisps that are also vegetarian.

Like the meat flavoured crisps that are also vegetarian. well sure, i did say maple flavour. but the hickory smoke is probably real because it's cheaper to produce than to try and synthesize something. generic meat flavour is usually some sort of umami source like a hydrolyzed soy or something speaking of which, this was a favourite thing growing up which actually used dehydated cooked chicken powder as a flavour but i dunno if they still do

Some one out there has a cold fusion reactor in their basement but they're using it to boil water for personal use.

Failed Imagineer posted:I imagine the NHS isnt much interested in prescribing Not sure how it is in England but up in Scotland my GP didn't know what semaglutide was and suggested that I simply "Stop drinking alcohol and start walking ". She had the same response to me asking if it might be wise to use a CPAP machine to help with my sleep apnoea in the short term until I got some weight off. Anyways I got off booze completely, switching it for medical cannabis on my own initiative (with a little advice from some folks on this forum) and started doing walks, I'm now 3 stone lighter + no more sleep apnoea but I do wonder if that kind of response (even if it is technically "Good advice") is common when they have about 10 minutes to talk.

The ALDI over the way have the 'festive' crisp flavours in, and it's hard to pass by a bag of the Spicy Chorizo and Turkey Flavour (also cans of mini Twiglets, but I suspect those will be more divisive)

Only time I had more than that was when I said I was just having insomnia at the same time as a migraine and I just wanted like a week of sleep meds to get me through it, which he was happy enough to prescribe.

I had an out of season packet of Christmas Pudding crisps the other month. They were absolutely minging, but not quite as absolutely minging as you’d expect.

I have a sleep study tonight, funnily enough. Seems likely that it's apnea, but have to gather the data before they send me off with a CPAP. After that I'm angling for a bacta tank.

I told my GP that I'm drinking myself to sleep because none of the other medications worked and he prescribed me melatonin, which people can just buy in the US.

You can just buy it in Spain too, which means effectively that you can just buy it in the UK because the entire post-Brexit border force has apparently been reassigned to staring at small boats like the EastEnders Brothers for press opportunities.

I was once prescribed melatonin for severe insomnia. After taking it for like two nights it broke the cycle and I was back to sleeping normally. A year later it came back, and as I was explaining to a different GP how melatonin had worked almost instantly last time, he cut me off mid-sentence to say I should never have been prescribed it, and that my options were an email with a link about sleep hygiene or anti-depressants.

Seriously just tell them you're drinking yourself to sleep because nothing works (I went on a bit of a rant) and they will hopefully relent. Say this even if you don't drink, because the NHS is basically being forced to deny treatments if it's psychological, but liver damage costs the NHS more in the long run so they will intervene.

comedy crisps is a good turn of phrase. we use "prank cheese" in my house to describe these products after my sister-in-law ate a piece of maple infused cheddar one year

Guavanaut posted:There's a lot of comments from modern engineers mocking the medieval Levantine steam kebab engine for its terrible thermal efficiency, but I think they missed the point by a lot. Spinning the skewer very slowly next to a red hot piece of metal is exactly what you want from a gyros machine, and using modern industrial efficiency to spin a cold lamb shank at 3000 rpm would just make a big mess that nobody would want to deal with. These people are so backwards they didn't even manage to use thermodynamics to inevitably destroy all life on the planet, with any decision they could possibly make after that fact, being just a tweak on the dial
