Scathach posted:It's a real pain in the rear end. I don't blame people for being weird about unprocessed fruits/veggies and I can kinda see why it makes trying any new food difficult whe the person is an adult. For him it has nothing to do with pesticides, but is likely linked to birch pollen or some other weird pollen. Cooking it solves the problem. Take a big can of these, chop them up, and stir into boiled elbow macaroni. One of my granddad's favorite dishes.

Yeah, if your childhood or young adulthood covered the '50s through mid-'60s, then you ate a lot of garbage canned or frozen food. Transportation and refrigeration wasn't nearly as effective as today, so eating fresh food generally meant you were poor and growing your own garden. Canned and frozen food was a sign you could afford to buy all your groceries instead of growing them, so that crap wound up a sign of success and affluence.

Those things did not taste like jalapeño. They tasted exactly like green bell pepper, so unless there's a jalapeño variant out there designed to taste like a bell pepper, they weren't jalapeños.  Read up on the Texas A&M Mild Jalapeno II hybrid. All of the jalapeno flavor, all of the bell pepper heat.

KiteAuraan posted:So are hot dog tacos. Turns out "authentic" Mexican is pretty drat variable. My concept of burritos and tacos is, they're not supposed to be fancy at all. They originated as whatever leftovers you had sitting around crammed into a tortilla as a cheap filling lunch for workers. Later they became cheap fast food sold from taco carts, initially to workers, but later to the drunken party crowd. And then America became enamored with ethnic street food, and now white people think they're some kind of Hispanic haute cuisine. e. There's still a (dark and shameful) place in my heart for Old El Paso taco kits, even to this day. Also, in my observations of Mexican migrant workers, dudes loving love ramen. rndmnmbr has a new favorite as of 03:36 on May 7, 2016 |

( All offset, of course, by my side of the family, where gravy flowed freely, stuffing abounded, meat came in all types, my aunt believed in delicious vegetable sides for roughage, the closest thing to a store-bought pie was my reverse-engineered no-bake cheesecake (sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, lime juice to set it), we ate like Pratchett wizards (fork, knife, and rammer), and the diabetics stockpiled extra insulin to make it through the day.)

Have you tried it with ginger biscuits as the base? Haven't tried ginger snap crust, I'll give that a go next year. I usually do the standard graham cracker crust, but I've had success with a chocolate chip cheesecake with a chocolate chip cookie crust, peanut butter cookie crust, and an extra-thick oatmeal raisin crust with homemade raisin syrup topping. The lime juice is just because I like the taste, lemon would work just as well. Or... ooo, orange juice with a bit of citric acid powder, I'ma have to experiment more!

I missed out on some prime AFP yesterday. The local Catholic church held a Jamaica, which I understand to be some kind of church fundraiser masquerading as an explosion of the weirdest authentic Mexican street food. And I chose to go buy a mattress instead. But hey, I had Arby's, and that's pretty AFP too.

chitoryu12 posted:It's a little more complicated than that. Antibiotics aren't a 100% good thing for cattle, as it results in antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria evolving more rapidly than they would if the cattle weren't given them so often. They only came into use when the demand for meat could only be satisfied through huge densities of meat animals on farms, which resulted in disease running rampant. To add to this: "corn fed" doesn't mean Farmer John opening a can of Sure Value Loose Corn and dumping it in the food trough. "Corn fed" beef is fed silage, with is basically the entire corn stalk with cobs, finely shredded, packed into a bin and left to rot. Cows seem to love it, or at least they do when they're packed 20-30 to an enclosure wallowing in their own poo poo. (And I'd still rather smell poo poo from a feedlot than poo poo from a dairy, because holy gently caress, dairy poo poo is rank.)

Number 1 Sexy Dad posted:I thought this was the thread where we bitch about food stuff. Pointing out that you want a recipe, yet ironically you seem to be incapable of reading, was bitching about food stuff. Also, it's Kenji, he's a slightly spergier Alton Brown and writes articles for other food spergs. If you are not a food sperg, then Old El Paso puts refried beans is a can these days and I hear that there are such things as "stores" where said cans might be found - although, with your reading difficulties, finding one might be a bit of a challenge.

Way late to Bar-S chat, but I worked in a Bar-S plant when I was 18, for a grand total of twelve hours. The smell inside the building is indescribable beyond "unpleasantly meaty", and that smell sticks to your skin for weeks afterwards. I quit twelve hours into an eight-hour shift of "slamming hams". Pretty much all of the ham products are baked in giant molds. The ham weighs about 50 lbs., and the mold weighs about 25, and you have to slam it down on a table to get the ham out of the mold. I got constant poo poo from the other guys slamming hams because I used two hands to slam one mold, instead of one in each like them. Sorry, motherfuckers, but it's my first day and I'm not pro-wrestler buff like you fuckers are.

There are picky eaters and then there are picky eaters. I won't touch nervous systems or reproductive organs, but I'll eat just about anything else and I'm not afraid to try something I haven't eaten before. One of my uncles, on the other hand, will only eat ten or so dishes that his mother used to fix and then only if fixed by his wife because she slavishly follows the exact recipe his mom used.

Cheesecake chat: one can of sweetened condensed milk, one softened block of cream cheese, mix well. Add 1/4 cup lemon or lime juice and mix thoroughly. Pour into a prepared graham cracker pie crust, refrigerate overnight. Top with your choice of fruit preserves. Also buy bigger pants, you're gonna need them before you're done making and consuming good no-bake cheesecakes. e.

von Braun posted:What, you don't like this scolding hot, extremely bitter beverage? I wish I knew exactly what caused coffee to be bitter, because I want to like it so badly. And I have tried everything under the sun - every manner of flavor from every manner of store, cold-brewed and hot-brewed and middling-brewed, from black to more sugar and creamer by weight than coffee, the cheapest freeze-dried powder to coffee shat out by cats and hand-gathered, hell I even tried it salted on the theory that salt reduces bitterness receptor sensitivity, and none of it worked. Coffee always has a horrific bitter aftertaste that makes me gag. If I knew what it was that gave it that taste, then I could figure out how to chemically remove it. And sure, my chemical Frankencoffee might give me all the cancer, but I could finally drink this beverage that smells so heavenly and tastes so vile.

Grand Fromage posted:(darker roast is more bitter also, couldn't tell if you've tried different roasts) Can't say as I've tried every roast, no, but as many as I can get my hands on, and no, it didn't help. There's just something incredibly bitter about coffee that nothing can get rid of. Hell it might even be psychosomatic, I associate coffee with bitterness so hard that even when it's not bitter it tastes bitter to me because it tastes like coffee at all. I still occasionally get a cup, though, just to smell it. I absolutely adore the way coffee smells. Somfin posted:Okay I can be okay with no pizza rules but there have to be some loving sushi rules Yes, sushi rules are perfectly fine and acceptable.
