Data Graham posted:Exemption for "human" or no? OK, yes, if it's something that you find immoral, or if it's poison, or if you're allergic to it, or whatever, fine. If it's just something that's perfectly edible and doesn't violate any deeply held convictions but is something you wouldn't normally eat, you're a child. If you take a bite of some unknown food, like it, and ask what it is, don't stop eating it because it turns out to be insects or testicles or whatever. You just found out that something you assumed was disgusting is actually nice, that's a good thing.

ErIog posted:Doritos are substantially different from regular corn chips to the point that I'm confused why you would think I meant "corn chips" when I said "Doritos," specifically. I didn't say "corn chips" in general. Different brands of chips vary in flavour and saltiness, there's nothing particularly unique about Doritos. Also salt is delicious.

Aesop Poprock posted:Yes there is? Doritos of any kind are generally covered in a "cheesy" dust that you don't get from any other type of chip. they're very different from a standard potato chip or even other types of corn or tortilla chip What? Plain Doritos just have salt, no cheese flavour. And cheese-flavoured corn chips are not unique to the Doritos brand.

big mean giraffe posted:I'm really interested in where 'down here' is that didn't have regular tortillas. Fo3 is wrong anyway, we've definitely had tacos and tortillas for a lot longer than 7 years. Also, flat-bottomed tacos are a gimmick that one company does, not some weird Australian way to make them. And I don't know what he means about Mexican food not being big here, because just about every supermarket seems to have a "Mexican" section. Even if the pre-packaged spices in "taco kits" or jars of salsa or whatever aren't "authentic" it's not like you can't get the ingredients to just make stuff.

Unsure about the vegan ice cream though, so substitute real dairy for it and it's golden. "Banana ice cream" is literally just frozen, mashed bananas. It's not ice cream, but it's not anything bad. The bit I'd question is why are the passion fruit skins in the bowl?

The correct way to cook hotdogs is to stick them in boiling water until you think they're probably hot enough, and preferably get them out before they split. They're garbage food, they don't deserve anything more.

Well, now I'm even more confused. I had assumed that if any sort of cake would be a generic "white" or "yellow cake" it would be a sponge, and the pictures in that article seemed to confirm that, but then it says "White cake has a very light, almost sponge cake-like texture, whereas yellow cake has a moister and denser texture." Then again, it also says "Wedding cakes are frequently white cakes" and wedding cakes are fruit cake, so who even knows what it's talking about.

And the last time at my then girlfriend's house because, "You may think you don't like fruitcake, but that's because you haven't had my mom's! It's amazing! Trust me, just try it! My whole family loves it!" It was just as bad. Fruitcake should be banished from this earth. Why couldn't Hitler have done something constructive and direct his hatred towards that? empty sea posted:I've had fruit cake exactly once, at Christmas in Newfoundland. My boyfriend's grandma had soaked it in rum for a month or so and they lit it on fire for dessert, then served it with clotted cream. It was loving delicious. Warm, dense and deeply flavorful with chunks of fruit, a hint of rum in the heavy cake and then the cream added a nice finishing touch. I don't know if she bought some store cake and then soaked it in rum or made it herself but goddamn ya'll.

Murphy Brownback posted:Dark chocolate is fine but there's something wrong with you if you can't appreciate the taste of good quality milk chocolate (i.e. not hersheys). Milk chocolate is mostly just sweet. I don't mind milk chocolate, and it can go nicely with nuts or whatever, but on its own it's just not particularly good. Dark chocolate is actually nice enough to eat by itself.

Tonight's dinner.   I didn't want to go to the shops, so I just had a look at what was already in the house. Frozen vegetables, chicken nuggets, some grated cheese. Add some milk, herbs, garlic, tabasco. Good enough when I'm just cooking for myself. Tiggum has a new favorite as of 10:51 on Jun 10, 2015 |
