You need to try strawberries from other countries. It's not all the same. US strawberries are usually little sour and finding sweet ones are difficult even in peak season. Strawberries in Korea and Japan are so much better. If you ever visit, try the strawberries there if it's in season. I think you'll be shocked at the flavor difference. You'll realize this is what strawberries are supposed to taste like, sweet and juicy. Not sour and bland like US strawberries. Of course, you'll pay arm and a leg for any fruit there. But things like strawberries are worth the extra price.
Question for the koreans: do you guys eat jacked-up stuff only if it comes from the ocean?
I work with deer mice and our primary projects involve "reproductivity"...so we're working with mouse sperm and oocytes on a regular basis.
If I shipped some mouse ovaries, testicles, semen, eggs, etc to you, would you guys find a way to eat them?
Koreans are the Italian and Irish of Asia. They live in a peninsula like Italians, love food and romance. They're pretty creative with arts, music, and film. They can be very violent and hot tempered and drink alcohol like fish. But they're not savages with no taste.
They'll practically eat anything from the ocean. But they expect fresh seafood. Most seafood restaurants will have tanks with live seafood onsite. They use the whole fish. They throw away the bitter organs, use the head, bones, and tail for broth, and eat the flesh. They do it right. Sperms and eggs are part of the fish and add great texture and taste. What you might consider gross is just seafood.
They don't eat mice. Not that I'm aware of. But I'm sure if you marketed it as some sort of health food, they'll eat it. I've learned people will eat anything if you tell them it's good for them.
purple kale
all the trendy hipsters are, or soon will be, foisting this weed upon us all. Resist.
I forgot about kale. Definitely a trendy and overrated weed.
too often people want to toss it in salad, raw. Savages!
Kale chips can be pretty good. I got some free range, organic chips from BigLots recently, and they were excellent, but spendy for BigLots. Wasteful packaging too. I wouldn't have wanted to pay full retail.I like kale but similar to Avocado, certain people think it needs to be in everything. Kale usually needs to be boiled or sauteed vigorously to remove the stink, but too often people want to toss it in salad, raw. Savages!
The only time I use it is in a quick and cheap ginger/garlic chicken stir fry that I make with red peppers. Sometimes I use bok choy or brocoli, but I will also use kale. just depends on what is available when I'm at the store.
Probably want to cross Asia off. Africa too. Germany, Hungary, Austria, France, Iceland, Scotland, England, Finland, etc.
Fuck it just stay home and eat fruit loops
this thread is single-handedly keeping ATOT alive
We're getting old so all we do is complain about is food and home stuff.
In that other thread we're talking about how it sucks being old!We're getting old so all we talk about is food and home stuff.
See?Sushi
They can be very violent and hot tempered and drink alcohol like fish.
Lobster. While delicious, Absolutely not worth the price. I'd rather have shrimp at a fraction of cost.
The ultimate xxxxxx (usually Mexican food).
Ultimate or super to me means bigger. You can get a regular one or pay a dollar extra for a super or another dollar for the ultimate but they are all the same size (they just put more ingredients and less quantities of each).
Pizza
I hate this fad going around making everything into a burrito.
It's not a new invention if you wrap a tortilla around it and you also just ruin what pho is all about, the broth.
