A discussion earlier in this thread has directly led to my now having an olive loaf in the oven.

I really need to look into this because I have never heard of olive bread and I loving LOVE olives

Whenever anyone itt has said "olive loaf" my brain went only one place:





I do not love this

i've never tried that, never will. i see it in the grocery store and there's an instinctive revulsion, like looking at a maggot, something deep in my reptile brain tells me to avoid it.

We had it a bunch when I was a kid for whatever reason, it always seemed pretty good to me, but I've always liked olives

Course looking at it now I find it pretty hilarious that they put stuffed olives into the meat and slice that, pimento and all, that just seems sort of goofy

(Then again I guess having voids in the middle of the slices would be even weirder)

Nothing is more old-school than baking your own drat staff of life.

had this and the cheese loaf a few times as a kid, it feels like trash, it makes your kid brain understand how weird processed meat is, it's just traumatizing.

are the same thing!

Horse meat is good if it's from a foal. Real soft meat.

It's only looked down on because it used to be poor people food and also Germanic pagans used to sacrifice and eat horses at their religious ceremonies. In between the human sacrifice (which wasn't eaten).

It's also looked down on because horses, to a far lesser degree but in a similar fashion to dogs, trust us.

They have a role far more emotional than "food" and even though pigs etc are objectively smarter, their cultural role is basically livestock, not companion.

Edit: the most egregious thing here is using salted butter for baking.

Butter on potato chips is also not good, I'm sure it tastes great ok, but crispy, oil saturated potato slices don't need extra fat :colbert: (unless it's sour cream based)

It turned out really good, like, ignore the rest of your dinner good. You should definitely have this with red wine.

Here's the recipe I used: https://foolproofliving.com/wprm_print/26009/

Two types of butter, cheap for cooking and fancy chip dipping butter that's ... Kerrygold?

Kerrygold is fine, but it's the brand name for all generic butter sold by the Irish government's Dairy Board. There's nothing special about it and I can't think of any cheaper brand here that isn't a "butter-style spread". Maybe it's more expensive in the US because it has to be imported, but butter has 2 ingredients - cream and salt. It's going to taste pretty much the same no matter where it comes from.

edit: Just tried the crisp thing. It's unpleasant. Butter is great when served on something that partially melts it and absorbs the butter.

Using a potato chip or cracker to deliver solid butter into your mouth is just denial that what you really want to do is sit down with a spoon and eat butter from the tub.

Cream itself has different "ingredients" based on the cow's diet and health. They deliberately change the cow's diet to manipulate the amount of protein and butterfat in milk. In Canada room temperature butter has become firmer because they are feeding the cows more palm oil, which leads to more palmitic fatty acid in the resulting milk.

The US is backwards. We can get as much butyric acid that we want from chocolate but if we want it in it's name sake we gotta import the Irish poo poo.

You can occasionally find domestic "european style" butter that met a fermenting organism once in a roundabout way but Kerrygold or Finlandia tend to be the most reliable way to get that full strength butter flavor.

A lot of smaller US dairy producers do make and sell really good cultured butter — but it can be hard to find anywhere that’s not either a city or a rural farmstand. Suburbanites, you made your beds on this one and now you get no good butter.
