How can you enter this, of all threads, and expect us to not want to know every detail of botulism?

The first sign you shouldn’t drink 95% alcohol is that the bottle is room temperature but the liquid is cold in your mouth.

One of my friends who ironically doesn't drink has a book of historical punch recipes that he tries for parties--those are all meant for rich people so they generally don't contain 'scrabbled together components that may kill you' like traditional soldier booze recipes. How can you not like salmon. Boggles the brain

Milo and POTUS posted:How can you not like salmon. Boggles the brain My fiance strongly dislikes the texture of cooked fish (and most raw fish), so I haven't had a good salmon in awhile.  When we go out to eat it's almost always what I order just out of longing.

FYI grilled salmon in teriyaki marinade doesn't resemble a fish in flavour or texture. it may be worth a shot.

I don't mind smoked salmon or salmon in a Japanese roll. But cooked salmon just is off putting for some reason.

Yeah, smoked salmon is the only kind I can palette outside sushi. Sushi is actually one of the only styles of seafood I do like much, most of the fish has a better texture when raw and the fishiness seems more muted.

Tempura sushi is my goto for introducing people who gag at thought of raw fish.

Another problem with seafood is that we eat the fish that can be cut into filets like other meats. Small fish like smelt and herring are good for you. But they're not prestigious, and they absolutely taste like fish, which puts off people who suck.

Well tinned tuna in brine is good for you (and cheap) and some cooking methods can make it taste very much like chicken.

I love smoked salmon and will take all of it that you guys don't want. I also like cured salmon, raw salmon, and grilled salmon. One day, I will go to alaska and eat only salmon. I will turn pink green and gold and swim upstream to gently caress myself to death, and then be eaten by a bear. SALMON.

I'm largely a non-fish-doer (except sushi for whatever reason), but as well as salmon I find tuna steak works pretty well too.

At an asian market you might be able to find jars of crispy fried anchovies, often seasoned with chili. They're crunchy, salty, a little fishy, and maybe even spicy. For tinned sardines, you want the boneless sardines in olive oil. Serve on crackers with a dressing of lemon juice and sriracha.

So, like, how many bones are we talking about here with these fish? Every time I think eating bones my mind goes to ortolans. I have to confess I've never tried this stuff, and I'm not entirely against it... but there is some trepidation.

They are such fine/(mushy I guess) bones that you don't even realize they have bones unless you go looking for them. Like the difference between eating worms and snakes if you want to translate it to land-food.

I had a big piece of octopus tentacle (maybe 1.5" diameter) a while back, lightly battered and deep-fried, and it had the texture and appearance of chicken breast. Tasted a little like chicken breast too, but really juicy and full of flavor and with a very mild seafood element. Gonna have to try and make this for myself at some point. Edit: sardine supremacy for everyday lunch though. I usually hit them with some Tabasco and eat them on saltines. Get them in oil, not water, or go to Trader Joe's and get a can of sardines in harissa.

A bottom-barrel supermarket chain that cuts prices to the bone by paying their workers like crap and never cleaning the store.

(Also I kind of get it and these kind of fish are on my list of things to get around to trying, thank you for the explanation.)

The ones here are in high demand for retail worker types because they pay the like 3 people who work there a lot better than, for example, Target. They do this by cutting costs in other areas, like you have to bring your own bags, and there's a machine out front where you have to put in a 25-cent deposit if you want to use a shopping cart.

And a lot of the products are store brand only. Edit: This applies from the .60 cent nut snacks to the $70 limited time (vacuums, mattresses, cookware sets, etc) RandomPauI fucked around with this message at 17:03 on Feb 23, 2018 |

Lidl has opened up stores in VA and should be expanding to other areas soon. Kind of a cross between Aldi and TJ's. Deffo a step up from Aldi. Their rolls etc. From the bakery are the best. Makes the whole store smell delicious (on purpose).

Plinkey posted:Aldi has good sardines? Herring is more common, but yes also sardines in my experience. Also gently caress the haters, Aldi owns. O no I have to bag my own poo poo so the cashier makes something vaguely like a ghost of a living wage. The horror. The horror. We moved so there's one in walking distance and I have literally never been happier.

The branch here pays minimum wage ($8.75, while most of the other chains start at $10.00 or more), keeps getting caught stealing wages, and spends millions campaigning against minimum wage increases. The floor tiles are also black, despite being white when they were installed. This is because they figure out the minimum number of employees needed for the store to function, then hire a quarter as many.

The Aldi here pays $15/hr, which is almost double minimum wage. The store is always clean and well cared for too. My impression is this is pretty standard for their stores in the US. They're never short of applications.
