The other channel ("5 Fights For YOU"), of course. Extra points if you can get the two consumer reporters to have an on-camera slapfight.

What was the stuff posted a while back, I think from Indonesian cuisine, that was like a sort of grey/translucent paste or spread of some sort? I think it was from a root and it was in a picture of a whole table spread with all kind of delicious looking goodies.

I always ignore the words gluten free because I do not want to have a stroke. Knock-off is fine. The ones I make at home now and then certainly qualify.

If your instant mash doesn't come out with the consistency of porridge you're still doing better...

That's grated Japanese yam. It's the consistency of snot and has no flavor whatsoever.

Maybe? That's the only way I've ever seen it prepared. The snot is what Japanese people want.

Always good to know the animal part of your brain is working normally!

Thousands of years of trial and error and lots of death have gone into forming an instinctive revulsion of "thing that looks like a familiar edible but is a drastically different colour."

It's not the colour itself. We recognise blueberries or kiwis or aubergines as food despite being bright blue or green or purple. things that look like something we know is safe to eat but are a different colour than we ever see in that food usually means it is spoiled/rotten/diseased or that we incorrectly identified it (that vine fruit looks just like a tomato plant but is dark purple instead of red/yellow...oh it's nightshade)

Of course now food science leads to any combination of colours and flavours, but our brain still does its best to keep you from inadvertently poisoning yourself because you'll stick anything in your dumb monkey gob

I did a grade school science fair project on this.. Took instant potatoes and added different food dyes, had people try them both blindfolded and able to see them. They mostly thought the blue was worst when they could see it, couldn't tell the difference at all if they couldn't.

You can just boil the yam. if it isnt grated like that then it's just another starchy root.
