To be fair, it's not as bad as he did with his other videos where he lasered a steak or put a potato through the dishwasher or put an egg through a sauna or ironed a chicken or toasted a steak or every time he tosses some poo poo on a campfire with no goddamn idea of what he's doing or used a loving children's lightbulb EZ Bake Oven. Like if it was just a gimmick video of honestly trying to cook food in weird ways it'd be one thing, but it's not. He's not even very good at the normal human methods of cooking.

Wasabi the J posted:Honestly I want to see how people who "didn't cook" lived throughout history. There's a reason that for 200 years, Paris bakers had their vacations regulated to make sure that they don't all go on vacation at the same time. Bread was a major part of the diet, but like gently caress is everybody going to bake their own. A good baguette you can just nosh down on from one end to the other. I also kinda like stories about automats, which basically functioned like fast food but with even less human interaction. There's stuff about how people from all walks of life ate together at them, since there were plenty of different priced foods all available at once, but after fast food supplanted them, there wasn't much point to the whole gimmick.

Tomatoes are kinda weird, unlike most fruit. I guess the closest is bell pepers, since you eat the colorful plant fiber in the same way, but then instead of cutting out or around the seeds, you just eat the seeds and the weird seed slime that they're suspended in along with. Makes for some inconsistent texture. Tomatoes are complicated. Still, a tomato slice is real good for broadening the flavor of a sandwich and getting a little more crunch. There's something about newer varieties being less sweet because the red coloring is prioritized, giving the tomato less chlorophyll for creating sugar, Whatever. Anyhow, content.

Most leaves with strong flavor get ground up and used sparingly, I don't get why cilantro just gets piled on like a maniac. Imagine eating a whole salad of cinnamon sticks. I've had some things with cilantro in them used sparingly that dissolves into the rest of the flavor profile rather than overpowering everything. Raw celery and cucumber have a similar effect of hijacking the entire flavor of a dish. Bell peppers are fine. Yellow bell peppers are distinctly Not pineapple, but being yellow and sweet they confuse me sometimes, even though there's a spice twang instead of a sour twang.

yeah I eat rear end posted:honestly I hardly ever eat them, they're like the ultimate low effort food, for when I can't be bothered to do anything better. Well, actually they'd come second to the true "I currently don't give a poo poo but don't want to feel hungry right now" meal of plain unseasoned white rice I eat sometimes, because with hot dogs you need to remember to buy a bun/bread. Yeah it's bland and mildly unpleasant, but it's edible. much like rear end. I used to eat plain tortillas as an emergency food. The moisture and texture is nice, but the flavor is mostly blank so that after you've shoved a few down your mouth, you have almost no memory of that happening. It's not a great way to live.

zedprime posted:Heated in a pan/hot pressed and you are nearly to tortilla chips and is a common snack for myself because store bought packages usually come with 500% more than I need for tacos or whatever. I haven't done it for a long while, but generally the idea was wanting something cheap with no preparation involved to shove into my mouth like an animal. It's not bad to have a nice humid tortilla, but it's real close to just taking a spoon to a bag of flour.

I wound up going lunchless for a fair amount of middle school and high school. Not because of being actually unable to pay, but because after I ran out of money in the prepaid account, it took me a long while to remember to ask my parents to put more money in (which was either genuine memory issues or weird shyness about dealing with my own suffering, I don't know). I don't know if there were actual programs to deal with that at my school, I just took the hunger and maybe hunted for some quarters to use in a vending machine. That's probably not feasible these days, between less cash floating around to be dropped and higher prices in vending machines. It's insane that there's an elaborate system to establish a debt for kids and then shame and punish them for that debt, as if school cafeterias really need to watch their margins to maintain a profit. I guess at least it can teach kids that the world outside school is also filled with cruel institutions that want to gently caress them into the ground.

Noslo posted:I'm adventurous, but I gotta say no thanks to maggot cheese Not really. If you think about it, most fermented foods already rely on much smaller wriggling little creatures eating and making GBS threads out the food item. Alcohol is a waste product. Maggots are just a larger version of yeast. Kinda reminds me of how fugu is risky to eat and there are non-poisonous pufferfish out there, but what gives pufferfish the taste that people love is the deadly poison.

BMX Ninja posted:Eel is an acquired taste I think, but they're pretty great when prepared any other way except jellied. There's an eel fishery about 20 miles from me that exports them as a delicacy all across Europe. And so a bunch of the fancier restaurants around here often have eel dishes on the menu, usually with produce caught the same day. I've never eaten eel, but what stands out to me is just how much blood they had relative to their size in one youtube video on London's oldest fast food place. The final product doesn't look too attractive either, but that's not the eels' fault. Mashed potato and ground beef pie in a green sauce in bad lighting just looks kinda sad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogfyJICT9aI And of course, the reason it really struck me how much blood they had when they were butchered was because I had gone down a youtube hole of videos of seafood being prepared, often in little street stalls, mostly on this channel. I watched more invertebrates like crab and snail, but even the big ol' fish didn't have nearly the amount of blood eels do. I'm sure most mammals and birds are full of blood too, but I just haven't seen those. Content warning: Like I said, animals being butchered.
