Lots of cultures eat larvae/bugs... It's not really that weird in the grand scheme of things. I probably would have been grossed out because a) I hadn't intended on eating them and b) I hate shaved coconut but that's hardly "thread winning" level of gross.

Raw chicken dishes are common in Izakaya-type restaurants. It's delicious and really not a big deal.

Medieval Medic posted:That concept is so pervasive around the world that even in Latin America one of the first questions I get asked is if I eat fish. Perhaps because they are majority Catholic and in Catholicism, fish is not meat. Rats/rodents are also "fish" so enjoy a ton of Cuy. E: beaten like a motherfucker. That will teach me not to refresh.

Isn't that a thistle? For like, Scotland or whatever? E: found it on that blog. Weird. Would the average Victorian-era Brit know what a pineapple was? I still think a thistle makes more sense. MAKE NO BABBYS has a new favorite as of 05:45 on Nov 6, 2014 |

That's so weird. I mean, in Dicken's novels people go apeshit over getting to eat their one goddamned orange a year, where the hell would they get a pineapple? That blog is crazy, though. E: Apparently more wealthy/sea faring Brits have been going apeshit for pineapples for much longer than I thought: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/ptop/plain/A10697132 MAKE NO BABBYS has a new favorite as of 05:52 on Nov 6, 2014 |

Vindolanda posted:If you think that is a thistle instead of a pineapple I'd really question whether you've seen either. Not really. The stylized prints of them are pretty similar and not being personally aware of the Victorian penchant for pineapple as a status symbol, I don't think I was unreasonable. http://i.imgur.com/HdFa8Yc.png http://i.imgur.com/6Z3JBEj.png http://i.imgur.com/L0vgqZQ.png http://i.imgur.com/XRmOD6y.jpg MAKE NO BABBYS has a new favorite as of 15:28 on Nov 6, 2014 |

Pomp posted:I generally find this guy charming in that amateurish way, but sometimes things just go downhill fast with his versions of western dishes. Mayo sauce on pizza is a Japanese thing, it's very popular and common there. Although they use kewpie mayo rather than like, Hellemans so it's tangy.

Yeah, lots of people rinse meats (especially chicken) erroneously thinking it can wash away slime or germs. Instead, they splash ecoli across their entire kitchen and contaminate everything!

Rigged Death Trap posted:My family washes poultry in salt and lemon juice to get that 'tastes like a chicken smells' taste out of it. You should really Google "food safety washing chicken" because it's an absolute no-no. Do you mean you season the chicken?

My mom who grew up on a farm in the Central Valley (CA) and literally earned one of her bachelors degrees in home economics and wrote a cookbook back in the day goddamn loves cool whip (on desserts.) My boyfriend who has been a professional chef for ~15 years, trained at a Chateau in France for a year, has worked at Spotted Pig, Per Se, Daniel and some really fantastic restaurants here in SF goddamn loves cool whip. I cooked both Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners with 4-5 pies each from scratch from my mom's garden/ranch and their ONE REQUEST EACH was for Cool Whip. WHAT. THE. gently caress. I tried to put a dollop of leftover cool whip in my coffee the next morning, thinking it would be like whipped cream, oohhhhhhhh no. Foul. I do not understand. And that's coming from someone who sometimes eats Miracle Whip. Also, Guy Fieri is from my hometown. I'm sorry, y'all.
