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?

Most places that serve it have butchers on hand or have access to fresh beef from a quality farm. If you were getting it from a factory farm then yeah that would be a concern because of the generally gross conditions but there's no inherent risk in eating raw beef that's been well kept/prepared

As promised, I have returned with "bio cheese".



I don't know what it has to do with faith-based fasting, but other than that it all seems pretty straight-forward. Well, except for the "vegan flavours" listed in the ingredients. But whatever those are, they're not animal products, gluten, soy, lactose, palm oil or genetically modified.



What good is cheese if you can't eat it on crackers? And you can eat this on crackers. It's kind of cheesy. The flavour and texture is sort of half way between cheap cheddar (like Coles Smart Buy tasty cheddar) and processed cheese (like Kraft singles). Fairly bland, fairly inoffensive. But I notice that it also claims to be "easy melt", and that seems like a claim that must be tested.



It doesn't look very melted but it turns out it just holds its shape disturbingly well. It's actually very soft, almost liquidy now. It has a very smooth texture, and a more interesting flavour as well, almost like a bechamel sauce.



Straight out of the pack it's entirely unremarkable, but melting definitely improves it. I actually quite like it. I'm impressed really. It's a serviceable replacement for cheese in sandwiches and would probably work pretty well on pasta, maybe even on pizza. I wouldn't go out of my way for it, but I'd happily eat it again.

Did... you make a peanut butter bio-cheese grilled cheese?

Real talk: I eat a few vegan meals every now and then because they're actually made well and don't pretend to be anything else. Except for grilled portabello caps as a burger substitute because it's loving amazing.

That being said, the following classic is not one of those meals:

Also, does anyone have that video of the lady from Boston who made gluten free bread or something, admits it tastes like poo poo, then keeps eating anyway? I love her.

This ladies meal is crazy, but she's 100% self aware about it and seems really cool. I can't really fault her and it doesn't look like it's unhealthy or anything from the look of her

My brother used to eat Spaghetti-Os (with meatballs) for breakfast in elementary school, almost every day. In 2nd grade, he threw up in the morning all over the hallway. My class was next to his and my teacher went to see the hub-hub. She looks at the red and yellow mass of puke that came out, and began deriding him. "Pasta? You had pasta for breakfast?"

That's my Spaghetti-Os story

Our home-ec teacher in 8th grade told us pizza was a pretty good and nutritious breakfast and I loved her for it

I think it's because instead of the lovely Rotel-Velveeta concoction with some chopped spinach in it, they had to microwave a freaking TGIF spinach dip and then add it. Like they went through more work and more money to make something less good.

Yeah its the same reason Sandra Lee is so funny. You're taking an already finished standalone product and adding poo poo that can't possibly actually improve it. It's a "recipe" in the same way that putting together a McGangbang is one

This thread is bringing back memories.

When I was about 4 or 5, the daycare I was at served a disgusting mid-summer "treat" called "Tuna Cone". It was basically tuna, mayonnaise, pickle relish, onions and Dijon mustard served in an Ice cream cone. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures, but it looked about as unappetizing as you'd think.

Considering how sensitive and over-tasting kids taste buds are that thing had to have been every single child's nightmare. No kid likes relish, onions or Dijon mustard. The gently caress were they thinking? Some people seriously just have no idea how to prepare food for children

Bollocks. The only reason that children don't eat the same as adults is because their coddling parents think that they are special unique snowflakes who once turned their nose up at an olive so now only give them fish sticks and chicken nuggets, because relish is just too pungent for my special sweet darling and his delicate tastebuds, get away from him with that bread don't you know that gluten is poisonous we only drink almond milk and eat whole grain bark

Nope. And forcing kids to eat stuff that tastes way too strong to them because you like it is a good way to discourage them from wanting to try new foods. Kids can be receptive to a lot of foods generally considered to be "adult" foods if you don't make it a punishing experience to finish their plates even if they hate it.

My new roommate brought the mac and cheese one when he moved in and I mocked him relentlessly. He used it once and it gave the mac and cheese really shiny appearance and it apparently had an odd aftertaste, possibly because he didn't wash it first.
