Zipperelli. posted:To bring back a topic from the last thread, can someone give me a quick explanation of how people don't get sick eating steak tartar? I always thought raw beef/egg would be a guaranteed trip to salmonella/e.coli town, or did my head just get filled with old wives tales when I was younger? Certain undercooked or raw foods make a good breeding ground for bacteria but they don't inherently contain anything dangerous and if handled, stored and prepared correctly they won't make you sick. You can get chicken sashimi in Japan. *edit* see above

Sakurazuka posted:Poutine has cheese curds, chips cheese n gravy is grated mozzarella because you get it from a greasy kebab/pizza place. Pretty common in the part of Australia that I'm from too. You're more likely to find it in a chip cart outside a nightclub at 3am though.

Xen Tricks posted:Fair enough, I thought there was something you found singularly revolting about it besides it just being a weird offering from a crappy fast food place. I also remember seeing that trend get posted about in this/the last iteration of this topic and thought it was the weirdest drat thing that you Aussies all of a sudden discovered something that had been eaten where I live for, uh, idk like 100+ years? Bizarre thing to become a food fad all of a sudden. Australia is obsessed with American food in general at the moment.

My wife had some leftover condensed milk so she decided to make caramel. It was taking ages on the stove so she popped it in the microwave. where it overcooked really quickly and went a bit thick and sticky like toffee She took it out of the bowl and put it in some baking paper to roll it up for slicing into bite sized pieces. This is what it looked like after rolling up

It's Melbourne. To use your metaphor, the water is in a barrel and the sharks have shotguns.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:The ingredients are listed in order of how much of the product consists of them, and water is the first. Isn't that just because there are many different vegetables in there so no single vegetable is present in any amount greater than the water they're packed in? Like there's way more total weight of vegetables than water?

Grand Fromage posted:I just don't see how you'd cook it properly. Cauliflower + meatloaf sounds amazing but cooked together in a single vessel like that... I dunno man. The cauli would steam inside the meatloaf. It probably wouldn't take on that much taste from the meat but it would cook ok I reckon.
