Celeriac is the shittest vegetable. Imagine the taste of celery but with the consistency of potato or swede. Nightmare stuff.

I'm glad that I'm normal and so can enjoy the normal tastes of normal foods and know that coriander is good, cucumber is OK, sprouts are fine and celery is disgusting trash.

What is celery even for? People keep putting it in stews and stocks and stuff, and I'm pretty sure that they would all be improved by just not adding the celery in the first place.

As the thread's resident food expert, I feel I should weigh in: broccoli good, sprouts good, coriander bad, celery good if cooked well (like in gumbo)

Always found it weird that Celery is one of the major allergens but I've never met anyone other than me who has an allergy or intolerance.

Sprouts, broccoli, coriander, cucumber and celery are all good imo. I made braised celery recently, came out pretty nice. Celery simmered in garlic and stock.

The thing that ruins food for me is cumin. Awful sweaty taste. Annoyingly I can detect minuscule quantities of cumin or cumin-like flavours.

Cumin definitely has to be used intentionally. It's not just a "chuck it in" type of flavour.

Was recently reading that Brussels Sprouts taste different now than a decade or two ago, they have bred out the slight bitter taste it used to have.
Celery is great for a soup or stew as a filler that doesn't alter the taste much.

I WON THE BETTING POOL ON TESSAS THIRD STUPID VOTE AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS HALF-ASSED TITLE

I am so loving upset, At the next election I will basically have 3 brands of Tory and 2 brands of racists choose from (You could easily argue for adding the Torys into the racist pile too)...

Who on earth am I supposed to vote for? I want the Tories gone so badly and that means voting Labour but I honestly have no desire to put Starmer in power, especially after he unironically praised Thatcher publicly.

I wouldn't stress too much about it, if someone tells you you have to choose between getting hit in the face or the dick it doesn't become your fault that someone is hitting you in one of them.

Who are the racist parties in your area? Not sure whether Reform or BNP-Lite will stand in mine unless you include PC because they're nationalist rather than racist?

I'm going to go either Green or Plaid Cymru (though they're a nationalist party), more because I think it's time the big 2 (for some reason the LibDems fail to impinge upon my consciousness) had a psephological* kick in the goolies.

*not sure of a better word though not sure this is a correct use.

Weirdly, you can at least credit Thatcher for having a plan she was working towards. It didn't work, was needlessly cruel and has had a crippling decades-long impact on the country as a whole, but she actually believed that her job as Prime Minister involved having a long-term plan.

What can you say about Starmer? The man who's reneged on every promise he's made since declaring his interest in running for Labour leader? The manifesto - when it arrives - won't be worth the paper it's printed on, or the hard-drive space on a server. Just pages and pages of bullshit spelling out one core message:

The Yorkshire Party, Reform UK and the Tories.

I just cant. I wouldnt normally feel too bad about voting for Yvette Cooper as my local, I always had a reasonable amount of respect for her, but shes definitely not my brand of Labor either...
