Hehe, it's okay in rice puddings, but meh everywhere else.

#

when you’re cooking with it and not using it for flavor

#

it’s fine

zealous crown
#

Texture, yes.

@zealous crown I found a source for the fake chicken egg thing. There's a video of some silly putty made up to look like eggs, sold in paper cartons. Somone tried to fry it.

zealous crown
#

Haha, cheers. I'll share that with mom next time we talk.

zealous crown
#

Having said that. I have an obnoxious video of some chinese hole in the wall restaurant owner, going around collecting sewer from manholes, then churning it into oil.

placid terrace
#

Oh that's totally real

#

Gutter oil is a massive problem

zealous crown
#

Ivorian..

placid terrace
#

I'm unlikely to ever go to china, as I've said some unflattering things about the CCP

#

And have no desire to be disappeared into the back of a van

#

But if I did, I'd not touch the street food

dark spade
#

it’s not just the street food

#

They have decentralized agriculture

#

meaning it’s nearly impossible to regulate

zealous crown
#

If you are kidnapped, eating is not optional.

#

Also, 'If you do a reverse image search, however, you will find a link to an article in Chinese published on April 5, 2017, that debunks this video and explains its origins.'

#

meaning it’s nearly impossible to regulate
@dark spade they have no desire to regulate.

dark spade
#

uh

placid terrace
#

I believe the debunking because making fake eggs makes little sense

dark spade
#

okay

placid terrace
#

I mean

#

they literally come out of a chickens asshole on a schedule

zealous crown
#

Hehe, so does artificial rice. But "apparently" that;s a thing as well.

placid terrace
#

Buying a machine to make a thin plastic shell and filling it with something has got to cost more than a chicken

dark spade
#

it’s smaller scale though

zealous crown
#

Not if you consider maintenance and upkeep of livestock compared to machineries.

placid terrace
#

Artificial rice I can see because there are things that exist that kind of look like rice

#

Floor scrapings at a plastic factory, for example

dark spade
#

upkeep of livestock in industrial farms amounts to doing nothing until they die then tossing the bodies and replacing them

placid terrace
#

Particularly melamine

#

melamine is what they were putting in baby food

dusky solstice
#

If you are in China, usually you'll be safe if you stick to places that serve Donkey meat

#

if you aren't in the better off areas

zealous crown
#

Melamine has been widely popular in SE Asia. Not only in the food, but people actually eat off it.

dusky solstice
#

First time I had donkey was in Nevada

zealous crown
#

As in plates etc.

#

Hell, I saw an auntie microwave food in a melamine bowl.

#

aunties*

placid terrace
#

oof

#

melamine is fine until you heat it

#

then it breaks down

zealous crown
#

Mmhm.

placid terrace
#

it's dirt cheap though, and safer than alternatives

#

as long as it's not heated

#

Doesn't cause lasting damage though, so you should be fine šŸ™‚

Neither, you can recieve any O

Ikr. Esp halloumi and parmesan

I am having it with singaporean noodles

Paramasan is the worst

It lasts what, 2 servings?

#

Good choice of noodles btw

zealous crown
#

Depends on how generous you are with it, but yes, super pricey comparatively

#

Thanks. I live to please.

placid terrace
#

Dunno how Olive garden survives without going bankrupt, offering unlimited parmasan

#

hm

#

I bet it's not parmasan is it

#

'murica isn't known for its cheeses

#

a "blend" of romano and parmesan

#

so probably the minimum amount of parmesan as they can put in while still legally being able to claim it has parmesan

zealous crown
#

Hehe funny, that’s what my mum has yo say about the prepackaged garam masalas they sell here. 90% cinnamon, 10% bleargh.

#

Wasn’t there a rumour about Domino’s not using ā€˜real’ cheese?

I think turned out it was provolone.

@zealous crown best pita i ever had was right around here:

Look at that clay oven! šŸ˜ bet that was one hell of a pita. looks at her store bought ones and whimpers

tired stump

the problem is that every other pita for the last X years has paled in comparison

i think the ones at zaytinya(?) were close

i bought like 15 different kinds of curry spices and then i was like "nope" goes to amazon

zealous crown
#

the problem is that every other pita for the last X years has paled in comparison
@tired stump hah I totally get that. I had these amazing falafels in Libya, a long time ago, and haven’t had anything remotely as delicious as that batch.

#

I guess I should be grateful to have had it at all.

#

Does that curry stuff come in paste/powder/sauce?

tired stump

it's a paste in a foil packet

pretty comparable to what we get from the local thai place

then punish the rest by eating their faces or feet

#

I like everything else now as an adult, but not those

hidden quail
#

I like raw onion. Raw baby corn I eat too sometimes

#

Not big corn though

dusky solstice
#

I think my favorite way to eat corn is Elote (or rather Esquites if I'm lazy and doing it off the cob)

hidden quail
#

Elote looks nice

zenith grotto
#

Made elote just the other week!

hidden quail
#

How was it?

zenith grotto
#

So good! Highly recommend trying it yourself at least once.. it’s pretty easy to make.

dusky solstice
#

if you don't have a grill, go the esquites route which you basically take the corn off the cob and cook it in pan before mixing everything together

hidden quail
#

I'll have to give it a go

gloomy glacier
#

i've been looking at images, and have to admit... definitely worth a try

zenith grotto
#

I’ve never made it esquite style..pretty much a sweet and savoury corn salad though šŸ˜‹

#

Delicious on-the-go lunch

dusky solstice
#

What's nice about the Esquites style is it easier to make family style while taking up less room at the serving table. Also you can get a bit... fancier and more control with the flavors since it easier to add other seasoning, different cheeses, etc..

hidden quail
#

Does parmesan work fine with it?

dusky solstice
#

yeah, any salty cheese works

#

I do a dairy free one for a few friends that uses Nutritional yeast, extra lime, and salt

zenith grotto
#

^^^

#

We don’t eat dairy. I made a cashew Parmesan

#

šŸ‘Œ

dusky solstice
#

and if you want to go full vegan, replace the mayo/butter with Toum

#

which is basically vegan mayo, aka aioli with a lil lemon juice

#

and uses garlic instead of egg as the emulsifier. Also known a Lebanese garlic sauce

zenith grotto
#

^^ did that 😯

#

Don’t eat egg either

#

Lol

dusky solstice
#

If you can find it, look for Elephant garlic. It'll make your Toum almost neutral flavored so it closer to mayo than a garlic sauce if you ever want a more neutral base for things

zenith grotto
#

I use soy milk and Dijon mustard as emulsifiers in my aioli

#

Never thought to use plain garlic

#

Could have some tasty outcomes

gloomy glacier
#

@zenith grotto no dairy by choice?

dusky solstice
#

@zenith grotto that's what makes it aioli, no eggs, and using garlic

#

then it becomes Toum by adding a lil lemon juice and water

zenith grotto
#

@zenith grotto no dairy by choice?
@gloomy glacier yessir

dusky solstice
#

moment you add eggs, it no longer an aioli. "Garlic Aioli" and the likes you hear in the US was a marketing thing

zenith grotto
#

Fair point.

dusky solstice
#

That said, a mayo will make a better base for a wider range of sauces than an Aioli would

#

given its neutralness

zenith grotto
#

That’s pretty much why I’ve made mine without garlic I guess

#

If it needed to have garlic. I would add it afterwards

Heh, don’t bring this up in front of my ma.

Well, who knew google was going to be a thing back then

Funnily enough in my father’s days in univ, using a calculator was considered cheating. Hell, I had to learn sin, tan, cos using a logbook and ruler. Fun.

I would not even know where to start

ooh

my lack of culture is showing

zealous crown

I am just pleasantly surprised you didn’t zoom in on the stray nailpolish.

I absolutely did

#

I'm just too polite to mention it šŸ™‚

#

thought it was a hangnail at first šŸ˜›

zealous crown

Yeah, no.

placid terrace

I'm not sure my attempts at painting a nail would be any better

#

Strongly suspect they wouldn't be

zealous crown
#

Hehe, hey, now! I am proficient at it, tyvm. I just had dogs jumping on me and then a racoon walked in..

placid terrace
#

a racoon?

#

I thought you lived somewhere outside of london...

#

do we have racoons?

#

or just you

#

or are you not here right now

zealous crown
#

I was fibbing! There was no dog! I am shit at being a girl, kthx. Are you HAPPY now?!

placid terrace
#

You actually had me googling if there are racoons in the uk

#

you could have run with this

šŸ˜›

zealous crown
#

Speaking of London, I once saw a squirrel have a chicken drumstick from a bin in Hyde Park. Almost turned me back to religion, that.

Ohman, I shouldn’t have stopped you.

I actually found this too

#

excuse "The Scum" link

zealous crown
#

Heh, someone l2<>

#

Ooof, sun. Yeah, they will be all over that kinda story. Racoons flashing and sexually harassing the elderly near Cornwall!

placid terrace
#

Well. I'm hardly one to criticise anyway, I'm shit at being a girl too.

zealous crown
#

I bet you are more nimble with false lashes than I am. Delicate :x

placid terrace
#

I've never tried, but I suspect I'd end up gluing my eyes shut

zealous crown
#

Hah, that would be a fun way to meet your colleagues.

placid terrace
#

Which'd be another couple of pages in the chapter of my medical records labeled "eyes"

zealous crown
#

Eeesh! That bad, eh?

placid terrace
#

WELL

#

I was born with wonkey eyes, so surgery for that

#

(they're now straight)

zealous crown
#

Heh, thanks for the disclaimer.

placid terrace
#

but the one that was wonky doesn't work quite right, so spent a lot of time at the eye hospital having it examined

zealous crown
#

Was the corrective surgery necessary or aesthetics?

placid terrace
#

aesthetics

zealous crown
#

I see. How old were you, if I may ask?

placid terrace
#

<1 year old

dusky solstice
#

you don't have the eyes, I don't have the ears, they made a movie about us

zealous crown
#

Wow. Did not know they offered smthing like this on the NHS. Quite shocked tbh.

placid terrace
#

oh it was NHS yeah

#

it's a cosmetic procedure, but it's one that is funded

#

and the younger the surgery can be done, the better the brain adjusts to the new direction the eye points in

zealous crown
#

Yes, I am just surprised they didn’t think it through. Didn’t think you could correct this by simply performing an invasive surgery.

#

Ah. Hm. Okay.

placid terrace
#

sometimes the surgery doesn't work so well, but it did for me, I've got a couple of degree deviation remaining

#

which, most people have anyway

zealous crown
#

Fair enough. So long it doesn’t cause you much discomfort. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being crosseyed. Then again, it’s easy for me to say I guess.

placid terrace
#

nope, no discomfort at all

zealous crown
#

Ahhh, hence the ā€˜obsession’ with eyes.

#

fixes the bulb hovering atop her head

placid terrace
#

but it didn't end there šŸ˜›

zealous crown
#

No, please, continue this riveting tale.

placid terrace
#

I didn't really wear glasses when I was little, so I just used to get my face close to things I was looking at

#

So, I've had removed from my eye

#

Lead solder

#

Pencil Lead

zealous crown
#

What..

placid terrace
#

Cactus bristles (not like from a giant cactus, a furry one)

#

Bleach

#

... I think that's everything

zealous crown
#

Wait, you went THAT close to these items?

placid terrace
#

oh yes

zealous crown
#

I..

placid terrace
#

I wear my glasses full time since I was about 15 though, so fewer accidents

zealous crown
#

Uhm. Why didn’t you stop when you could feel it against the lens..?

placid terrace
#

oh it wasn't like I poked myself in the eye šŸ˜›

#

The solder, I was tinning a wire a few inches from my face, the solder splashed

#

pencil lead snapped off and shot straight in

#

Bristles landed in my eye due to a breeze

zealous crown
#

What were you soldering?

#

I have way too many questions!

placid terrace
#

Bleach, I was cleaning a toilet and a single drop sniped me

zealous crown
#

Your reflex to blink must be super slow, man.

placid terrace
#

It was a timer circuit at school

#

I hadn't considered that

zealous crown
#

Oh, in class, okay.

placid terrace
#

The solder was the worst one

#

It was rosin core solder, and the rosin kind of fused to the cornea

zealous crown
#

You don’t say! Fortunate you can still see anything.

#

Ohmygod..

placid terrace
#

There's still bits of it there

#

I had a couple removed ~5 years ago

#

they've formed like, calcifications on the surface

zealous crown
#

Of the cornea?!

placid terrace
#

yup

#

harmless, but the optician just went "huh there's something on your cornea", grabs a pair of tweezers and starts scraping my eyeball

#

2/10, do not recommend

zealous crown
#

Wtf!

#

That’s way too casual.

#

Ohman, just reading all this has started to make mine water. I think now they are scared.

placid terrace
#

Ohh and then

#

You reminded me

#

XD

zealous crown
#

Anything else happened to the windows of your soul?

#

Heh yes?

placid terrace
#

So, I tried contact lenses one time

#

Just the once

#

So much pain

zealous crown
#

You did not sleep with them on!

placid terrace
#

they shrunk on my eyeball

#

turns out, I don't make enough tears

#

and the ones I do make, are low quality

#

so the lens was drying out

zealous crown
#

Wow. Roboparamed

placid terrace
#

So now I have artificial tears to carry with me

zealous crown
#

I honestly have never heard such a thing before. So technically, to make lenses work for you your tearducts need to be looked into or just have a tube splash your eyes every few mins.

placid terrace
#

Had the tearducts looked at, they're working

#

just rubbish

zealous crown
#

So how about eye infections and stuff?

#

Are you more prone to those?

placid terrace
#

I've had conjunctivitis a few times yeah

#

but not frequently

zealous crown
#

Yikes. Yeah, those are not fun.

placid terrace
#

Once every couple of years if that

zealous crown
#

You have come a long way, my friend

placid terrace
#

The optician I see remembers me, even though I only go once a year

#

Says my eyes are "interesting"

zealous crown
#

Heh, you spayshul

#

I hope it’s not just some bloke at Specsavers

placid terrace
#

No, it's a she, and I go to a private optician

#

not that spec savers aren't private

#

but

zealous crown
#

Heh you go to posher ones

#

I gitz u

placid terrace
#

I actually see an optician rather than the optician's assistant, as happens at specsavers

zealous crown
#

Yup. When my mother was visiting a few years back, she kicked up a fuss because she had to see the paramed instead of the GP

#

Then I took her to Specsavers, and she grumbled the entire time, throughout the whole process, about inadequate medical service sigh

placid terrace
#

Sounds high maintenance!

zealous crown
#

Spoilt. Developing nations tend to have great medical care at a cheaper price. A root canal from a proper dentist in Dhaka would cost you around £150. With after care services.

placid terrace
#

Wow

#

That's cheaper than NHS prices

#

It's about £300 for a top tier procedure

zealous crown
#

I think I paid £35 here for the x-ray alone.

#

Mhm. Also, all this waiting around for MRI is nonexistent there. I think it’s again around a 100quid or smthing for one. Same day report and everything. But then again only 30-40% of the people can afford this, so not really progress.

placid terrace
#

yeah, I guess accessibility is the thing

#

I might not be able to get a same day scan, but I don't have to worry about the cost

dusky solstice
#

I grew up on Canadian border, I used to earn money driving Canadians into the US to get treated

zealous crown
#

Exactly. NHS is awesome. Shame it won’t last much longer.

dusky solstice
#

They come into the US, get treatred/tested, and not pay the bills because people don't realize that you don't have to in the US

zealous crown
#

Why the US? Isn’t it more expensive?

dusky solstice
#

Canadians realize thoug hand take advantage

#

instead of waiting potentially months, they hop over the border, get tested and just not pay

zealous crown
#

They can get tested w/o insurance or cash?

dusky solstice
#

yep

zealous crown
#

Damn. Would have thought they would clock onto that.

dusky solstice
#

nope, the law requires they treat you regardless

#

and medical debt is not bankruptcy protected

placid terrace
#

well, anything that hastens the collapse of the US healthcare system can't be a bad thing

dusky solstice
#

@placid terrace want to know something though, and why people like AOC and Sanders are corrupt as hell

#

they want universal healthcare, so do i

#

we already have the funds for it. We are #3 in the world for federal tax spending on direct healthcare, yet we only cover about 1/3rd because of red tape3

#

We don't need to institute increased taxes, we just need to actually spend it directly

#

it is corruption that is preventing coverage

zealous crown
#

Well, yes, of course

placid terrace
#

lack of definitive government for the past decades as well, it's difficult to deliver change on the scale needed when the house and the senate have opposing goals

zealous crown
#

Why else would the same drug cost 10x more in US than in India. Also, they MUP the shit out of tests and treatments.

placid terrace
#

R's had it, but squandered it with infighting and doing what R's do best

zealous crown
#

Mhm. And it’s late..

#

Like super late. Have to be up in 5h.

placid terrace
#

Ooops

#

you should go sleep then

#

so should I, but we both know I'm not good at doing things I should

#

Hope you have a good one. šŸ™‚

#

Night. Cover them eyes.

placid terrace
#

NIght!

The drug costs 10x more becuase there is no protection for creation in India

Avoid dairy. The cough and all.

placid terrace

aside from cheese, I don't eat much dairy anyway

zealous crown

Oh right, black coffee always.

placid terrace

never really liked dairy milk so use oat milk instead for cereal and things

Also, I do like the stir fry mix from the supermarkets. A lot more convenient.

it's not awful, but I wouldn't say it tastes much of thai

That’s fair enough. What do you prefer with your stirfry? Chicken, beef, prawns..?

dusky solstice

Stir-fry, Oyakodon, fried rice, those gonna be your quick ones

zealous crown

Unless you have to cook the rice as well

placid terrace

Generally beef, but chicken is fine too

#

I did chicken today

dusky solstice
#

Pork and Beef gonna be the easiest to get quality in 10 minute sin a pan

#

Chicken because of the way the skin is tends to take longer to do right

If you don't mind Quinoa, make a big batch of that, it holds up in the fridge for awhile then do a fried rice take with that over a few days
