I know Japan has a few examples, and New Zealand apparently has huhu grubs, what other options are there for live food?

And Stouffer's even makes that here in the States! (Though I think it must be hard to find. I remember seeing it here and there when I was a kid, but not lately.)

Yes, it appears to be wheat toast with cheese sauce. Frozen.

Oh Masaoki. My friend showed me this guy last year he's got something in the area of a spectrum disorder as well as being a complete mental case/hoarder. My favourite is probably the one with Obama being sworn in as president in the background

Different brands of chips vary in flavour and saltiness, there's nothing particularly unique about Doritos. Also salt is delicious.

Since my post about the terrible Czech eatery created some amusement, I decided to have my lunch there today. I regret this decision. It was worse than any school cafeteria meal I had. The place was full of old people who I assume are its primary clientele. A faint stench of urine lingered in the air. I decided to go for something which was labeled as beef goulash with pasta. It came with garlic soup with oats.



It tasted worse than it looked. The soup was bland and I forgot it was supposed to taste like garlic while I was eating. It tasted like disappointment complemented by a handful of oats floating near the bottom of the bowl. By the time I finished the soup the "beef goulash" was cold. I've had plenty of beef goulash in the past and this did not taste like it in the slightest. The meat was just dry and tough and the sauce had no distinctive taste other than salty. It was surprisingly thick and starchy. Nothing remarkable about the pasta. While the price was low, the cheapness doesn't justify the terrible food quality. Almost anything I could get for a similar price would be better than this.

Here's also an extra picture of their today's selection:

If you think that's a poo poo childhood, he's got nothing on me. One of my favourite "snacks" was to put chewed gum in a mug of water, freeze it, then chip at the ice until I got to the gum and chewed it again. I also ate cat kibble on more than one occasion because there was nothing else I could reach and drank pepto bismol out of boredom.

Squeeze a loving lime into your vodka your lazy assholes. Mix it with sprite or something. Jesus christ how is flavored vodka a thing, and how did the erudite people I shared a house with in college not realize the folly!

I couldn't make it through much of that video. That thing can't taste like anything besides fry oil and salt, not appetizing but I don't get his reaction at all.

According to the rules proposed by the Associazione Vera Pizza Napoletana,[2] the genuine Neapolitan pizza dough consists of wheat flour (type 0 or 00, or a mixture of both), natural Neapolitan yeast or brewer's yeast, salt and water. For proper results, strong flour with high protein content (as used for bread-making rather than cakes) must be used. The dough must be kneaded by hand or with a low-speed mixer. After the rising process, the dough must be formed by hand without the help of a rolling pin or other machine, and may be no more than 3 millimeters (0.12 in) thick. The pizza must be baked for 60–90 seconds in a 485 °C (905 °F) stone oven with an oak-wood fire.[3] When cooked, it should be soft, elastic, tender and fragrant. There are three official variants: pizza marinara, which is made with tomato, garlic, oregano and extra virgin olive oil, pizza Margherita, made with tomato, sliced mozzarella, basil and extra-virgin olive oil, and pizza Margherita extra made with tomato, mozzarella from Campania in fillets, basil and extra virgin olive oil. The pizza napoletana is a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed (Specialità Tradizionale Garantita, STG) product in Europe.[4][5]

Yes. Also, the idea of "finish your peas before you leave the table or no dessert" is now considered child abuse by this generation of parents.

The massive rise in the number of "picky eaters" who have all sorts of reasons why they won't eat or even consider a vast variety of foodstuffs is almost uniquely a US/UK thing because working parents are raising their kids on fast food and microwavable poo poo to the point where the modern restaurant industry is now dealing with grown adults who bitch and complain because they want mac and cheese or a cheeseburger when they're eating at a fancy restaurant.

I don't think taste necessarily has much to do with your parenting. Sometimes people just decide they aren't going to like a thing, and no matter how many times you give it to them they'll still dislike it. My dad had a good upbringing and all that but to this day he refuses to eat anything with condiments on it. Every burger has to be plain, no cheese, no nothing except salt and pepper. Every salad has to be undressed, lettuce only. Foods like pizza or pretty much anything with melted cheese are forbidden. He was even a chef most of his life, so I don't get it, it's just the way he is.

I love to cook, have done so professionally, and have been told I am good at it. However, more often than not, being single, I often skip meals with some level hassle and drop to the lowest common denominator, as it just isn't worth the time and effort and cleanup for just me.

Samizdata posted:

I used to be able to keep my hand in a bit when I did a weekly dinner with some neighbors. Started out with everyone bring a component, one of the neighbors cooks, the rest chip in on cleanup. Then it turned to Samizdata doing ALL the cooking ALL the time, which then turned into Samizdata doing ALL the cooking ALL the time and ALL the cleanup all the time.

Which is why I no longer do the weekly dinners.
