>the secret to flavor in 99% of dishes is how much fat or salt is in it
Right or wrong?
Yes, because salted butter is the most popular dish of all time.
Fucking dumbass.
>>7795816
no but one could argue its the most popular ingredient

Are drip coffee machines really that bad?
We had one of these in our college club. I don't see why buy this shit, you literally only needs a pan and to make coffee.
>but I don't acess to a stove where I'm pretending to brew coffee
Then get good coffee at house before and/or after leaving. I only drink coffee at home because it tastes much better since I'm using high quality beans.
In my experience, the quality of the coffee is going to be significantly more affected by the quality of the beans you put in. Drip machine or not.
It's definitely drinkable if you can't be bothered to use something else. Just don't let it sit for too long before you drink it or it will burn into acidic piss.

If it has no nutrients, why the fuck are you eating it? What the fuck? No carbs, calories, fat, protein, seriously what the fuck? That's not food.

What are some dishes with only few ingredients where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
I just had a BLT for dinner and was once again amazed at how perfect of a sandwich it it. There are only a handful of simple ingredients, yet when combined you end up with something completely distinct, and absolutely delicious. Sure, some people add avocado, or grilled chicken, but I think a basic BLT is pretty much the perfect sandwich.
Is there anything else like this? Where combining a few simple ingredients creates something transcending? The only other things...

spaghetti aglio e olio
spaghetti carbonara
spaghetti al tonno
risotto
properly cooked fried rice (as in with wok hei)
really, properly stir-fried anything
when I cook for just myself, I do it really simple 9 times out of 10. I think it's worth the effort to limit yourself to just a few ingredients to see how far you can take them.
The past few weeks I've been living off of chicken thighs, broccoli, and rice. If you brown nicely and use enough salt, a protein won't require any kind of sauce or spices to be delicious. I'm not lazy...

I agree with all the things mentioned , my grandmother use to make jersey tomato sandwiches in season just a little mayo sliced tomato S&P on rye use to look at her like she was crazy , but I can't get enough of them once tomato season starts , & as long as you have good quality ingredients your normally good to good with just 3 or four of them , best It hoagie ever is a little mom & pop place that only does two kinds of hoagie IT & a roast beef , the IT has just sharp prov & procutto & tomato on a seeded roll heaven !
>>7795678
I like using spinach instead of lettuce but yeah its pretty godly. all things considered though the main thing that comes to mind would be okonomiyaki but it is far from simple (theres about 7 essential ingrediants, and thats going absolutely bare bones) I think any kind of rice cassarole/soup is probably in there. Dirty rice, red rice and beans, jumalaya.
Are Whole Foods vegan cookies actually vegan? The package I have says sugar and flour in the ingredients
kek who cars they're cookies they're never gonna be healthy
They're actually Polish Sausages but vegans will believe anything you tell them.
>>7795626
>all vegans are vegan for health
listen i 'car' because i do it for ethical reasons
im aware that I probably have practices that are just as harmful to animals as eating a big mac
for my reasons though i won't eat meat or animal products
I don't go around telling others not to (not that I see that as a bad thing)
So I wanna know if the sugar and flour in whole foods bakery cookies are actually vegan
Is there any type of cuisine that you just don't get?
For me it has to be Korean food.
Almost everything is pickled, fermented, or covered in chili peppers to some degree where it's insanely pungent and you can barely taste the original ingredients.
The more normally flavored dishes just taste like shittier version of their counterparts from other asian countries.
And even Korean BBQ, which is really the only internationally popular staple of Korean cuisine, is kind of fucking pointless in my opinion.
Why would you pay extra to go out to eat if you have...

>classic Korean.food-Hanjungsik-01.jpg
Strictly speaking about non-American food, I don't think I've ever tried any cuisine that I didn't love at some point. I love good food. Korean BBQ is overrated where I live imo, but still good.
That said, there's some bullshit going on in the American midwest that looks utterly fucking disgusting.

That's the google images filename you autist. I literally downloaded the first picture I saw.
Are wraps the most underrated food delivery system? You go on and on about sandwiches, 'za, tacos and whatnot. All the while we have the mighty wrap, unassuming and unnoticed.
Why do people think just because people don't like something that it's automatically underrated rather than just shit
>>7795430
Because wraps aren't shit.
I honestly love wraps.
I think people are under the assumption that wraps are always some kind of healthy option (which they aren't, even if the filling is somewhat healthy), but you and put practically anything in a wrap and gobble it down without making a mess.
I used to work at a brew pub type place and have put almost every item on the menu into a wrap at some point, and made myself every possible type of wrap (yes, I even once made a deep fried, buffalo meatloaf Caesar wrap).
>mfw there are never any nice goddamn lagers in any bar ever but there are literally twenty kinds of oatmeal coffee stouts, super-hoppy IPAs and maybe a mead made in Vermont that nobody except fedora dorks and yuppies order
Why don't people brew nice lagers? Lager is infinitely more palatable than an IPA
>classic image.png
Porter > stout > lager > IPA in my experience. Why bother with a lager unless you've tried every other porter or stout on the menu?
Also, I've never had mead, but isn't it kind of grouped up with wines typically? Is its BAC similar to that of a standard beer (5-8%)?
>>7795365
Boston Lager is available at a lot of bars. At least it is here in Texas.

Looks better than those shitty nachos you posted an hour ago.

the nachos were better. And it was 4 hours ago
what's that red shit?
So I never got Papa Murphy's at all. I figured for the same price you could get a pizza already cooked for you, and if you want one at home, you either scratch it or make a frozen one. It seems silly.
But I decided I may as well do it once, and got a stuffed chicken kind.
>>7795351
People might pick this over a regular pizza place because it takes EBT since it's not hot premade food, or because you get a liiitle more for the price than you would at a standard pizza chain.
The outside looks pretty tasty. The stuffed ones bake for 25 minutes.
Do they not let you see it before you buy it?
There's like two inches of crust with no sauce or toppings. Looks terrible. I'd rather a $3 Jacks with fresh tomatoes, black olives, and anchovies.

Eat-in kitchen or separate dining room?
in front of computer watching youtube
>>7795293
Couch or desk. Rarely eat at table unless I'm hosting an event.
>>7795293
Eat-in is what I have. Dining room with a swinging door that leads into and out of the kitchen is what I want. The kitchen should not share an airspace with the rest of the house. I don't want the entire house to smell like food, or for the oven to heat anything but the surrounding area.
Same goes for the toilet. The toilet should be in a small closet-like area and the floor should be lower than the rest of the house with a drain in the floor in case the toilet overflows.
This is the greatest country...

http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/04/foodanddrink/japan-poo-curry-cafe/index.html
(CNN) — "It literally tastes like a piece of ----," a diner says, covering her mouth and trying not to regurgitate the small spoonful of curry she just ate.
For restaurant owner Ken Shimizu, this is actually a compliment.
His Curry Shop Shimizu in Tokyo specializes in a dish that deliberately mimics the texture and flavor of feces.
Don't click away in disgust just yet -- it gets weirder.
Shimizu is also one of Japan's best known porn stars.
A star of hundreds of adult movies, he's known in Japan as Shimiken, or the "king of porn."
His latest venture, according to restaurant manager and the curry's creator Hiroki Okada, is an attempt to satisfy an unlikely lifelong desire to find out what excrement tastes like.
"For Shimiken, it's a question to settle before we die," says Okada.
"We had had no choice but to answer the question with our imagination -- until now."
Forget the market research
Strongly flavored ingredients are used to make the curry -- onion, carrot, minced chicken, bitter gourd, cocoa powder, bitter Japanese green gentian tea, curry powder and kusaya - A sun-dried salted
horse mackerel that gives off the smell of dog dung, according to Okada.
To create a coherent theme, the shop is also equipped with tea cups that resemble a urinal cup. Toilet rolls serve as table napkins.

VIP seat – In a survey before the shop's opening, 85% of respondents claimed that they would never set foot in such a place. But Okada said more than 300 customers visited the cafe during its first month.
The restaurant manager Hiroki Okada says that Curry Shop Shimizu is intended to appeal to people’s sense of humor, rather than their palates.
“Instead of eating curry, the purpose of coming to the restaurant is to have fun. The curry is just a trigger.”
To create a coherent theme, the shop is also equipped with tea cups that resemble a urinal cup. Toilet rolls serve as table napkins.
Of course, they didn't just jump right in and open a poo curry restaurant, first of all they did some market research, surveying 400 young adults.
And, when it found that 85% wouldn't dream of setting foot in such a place, they promptly ignored it.
"We hope to defeat the market research data," says Okado.
The owners describe their venue, which opened in August 2015, as a "joke restaurant."
They say it's not so much about sating appetites as giving diners a good time -- or as good a time as is possible over bowls of stinking brown gloop.
"Instead of eating curry, the purpose of coming to the restaurant is to have fun," says Okada. "The curry is just a trigger."
Better than the real thing?
And here's where it gets even weirder -- and more disgusting.
The restaurant knows its curry tastes like poo because, brace yourselves people, Ken Shimizu has allegedly eaten poo (or so he claims).
More than once.
"Shimiken has eaten feces many times -- 250 people's -- so he can examine whether the curry tastes the same as the real thing," Okada adds.
CNN has been unable -- and, frankly, unwilling -- to confirm the curry's authenticity, but reviews have been mixed.

>>7795188
Shimizu's fellow adult movie star Uehara Ai gave up after her third mouthful, declaring the meal the toughest task she'd encountered this year.
Surprisingly, some, like the Tokyo-based bloggers of Wowsabi, claim they have slurped down a whole bowl.
Of the 300 customers who graced the restaurant in its first month, more than 90% manage to finish their curry, according to the owners.
Some, apparently, develop such a taste for it that they go on to eat their ... let's stop right...
