Why do people insist on making videos where they are eating food on their bed? Who eats full loving meals on their bed??

That Chinese takeaway video, she appears to have picked all the onion and pepper out of the chicken bits and chili fries, ensuring the blandest, brownest eating experience possible.

It's known as chip shop curry and is a reasonable medium curry. It usually comes with some veg in it though when ordered from a Chinese.

And I'm afraid that is salt she's sprinkling pouring on there.

That is 1000% absolutely definitely salt. So much salt.
Thing is, Conor's plate is horrible as actual Chinese food, but probably pretty tasty as crappy post-pub 'chinese food'. That kind of curry sauce is nice in its own weird way.
Hers is just disgusting.

She's Scots, I'm Irish, so our food packaging is pretty similar - most salt comes in tall plastic containers with that little liftable spout thing, sugar comes in paper bags.
No way that is anything but salt.

It loops the application of whatever it is, so it's half as much as it might appear to be. And maybe wherever they're ordering from uses really low-sodium soy sauce.

I'm more offended about eating on the bed.

I'm 43 years old and I will happily chow down on tacos in bed. If I screw up and drop some food I can just swap to clean sheets. I normally don't have to because I don't eat like a gross monster.

I assume you also have issues with the cultural favorite "Breakfast in Bed?"

MSG got a bad rep so a lot of Chinese places I've seen specifically advertise that they don't use any MSG.

Maybe this person thought that was a con rather than a pro.

I may eat in bed once and a while, but it is a shameful thing, and sleeping on crumbs is the price for my sin. The biggest worry is if some liquid spills, it may seep through the sheets to the mattress, and then there ain't no real cleaning you can do for that.

Eating in a car is fairly shameful as well. Like sure you can do it, you really shouldn't, there's a lot of stuff that's hard to clean in there that Will get messy. I don't get why people would proudly film themselves doing it.

Desert Bus posted:

The most logically acceptable gross no effort place to eat in shame is over a sink, but if you have a chair anywhere, just sit in that you weird loving animal. The absolute worst time to eat in bed is late at night when you have no time to clean up your awful mess before you sleep in it. If you've just decided that you're too lazy to not make a mess, make your mess in the least immediately vital area.

Logically you could even sit on the toilet to eat, since the bathroom is easier to clean, but there are other gross factors that would complicate it.

Your posts are contradictory because no one who eats loving tacos in bed 3am is then going to change the sheets if they spill anything so have fun sleeping in a puddle of salsa.

Do you get out of bed to procure/make the tacos and then get back into bed or do you keep tacos next to your bed??

3am is like, prime living time for me. The world is dark and quiet and no one is awake to question my decisions. If I wanna change my sheets at 3am I can and will. I've only had to once from food, after I dropped a meatball. midnight to 5am-ish is the best time of day if you can manage to get it for yourself.
