At Aldi's they have what is allegedly a popular German snack. It is an unflavored corn puff with powdered peanuts on it. It tastes kinda peanutty and something else. Not sure what it is, but something else.

They're my favourite snack, the French like them too. They're the best but hard to get in England. Usually can be found at tiny local corner shops, for some reason.

That presentation is actually rad and it just looks like runny scrambled eggs.

Yeah the only reason it's weird is because it's cooked on the outside instead of just the bottom. It's just normal eggs but they go all over your rice instead of being on the side. Omurice is good.

I've had natto, it's not that bad. The texture is weird but not awful, the taste is bitter and musty, tastes like an old sock, but not that old. Better with the mustard they gave me.

Would try it again probably, because I'm stubborn. I keep shoving green olives in my face because "it's an acquired taste!!" and every time I go ":) this is actually okay! Maybe I finall-UGH NO WHY"


e: The place I had natto was an okinomiyaki restaurant in London, and when I ordered it the waiter said "are you sure?"
"Yep!"
A few minutes later a senior waiter came over. "Hi! You ordered the natto? Do you know what that is?"
"Yeah!"
The food was delivered by the chef. "And here's your natto. Are you sure you ordered this?"
"Yes!!!"

I'm sure they loved watching me take one bite and go "eeeeh no". But it was worth trying.
The restaurant is Abeno btw. Two locations in central London. I'm sure they just scoop their natto out of packets, but great okonomiyaki!

This is just a kid being dumb but it's funny.

14-year-old told me he had tried to make a hot cheese sandwich... by putting his sandwich on a PLATE on the hob...



The scorch/burn mark on the hob would indicate that what he actually did was put his bread on the hob. I've now shown him how to use the grill."

Good job not setting off all the fire alarms, kiddo. But who at 14 does not know how to make cheese on toast. Come the gently caress on

Bit late for popcorn chat but I got these:



and they taste exactly like when you've eaten all the butter microwave popcorn out of the bag and stick your finger in to get the final taste of salty fake butter.

They're good. They're also really, really thin for crisps, which is weird, you can almost see through them.

e: "butter with salt" flavour, they're Polish

Cucumber Sprite is available in the UK. I had one can and that was enough for the rest of my life. It's not vile, but it's definitely not even close to good. The cucumber is mostly just a weird aftertaste, the lemon and lime overwhelms it. And it's a really weird aftertaste. No thanks.

Has anyone tried CalorieMate? For some reason, I thought it was just made up bullshit in Metal Gear.

I got it in a subscription box of Japanese snacks a few years ago. It was the chocolate one, I think. It was very, very dry and didn't taste great. I think I ate one bar and threw the rest away. It looks like something from 50 years ago, I love the aesthetic and just wish it tasted good

Gotta go with Shin Black ramen. You will have the shits after but it's good af. Add in some lime juice, butter, a little Japanese mayo, green onions, fried egg and some seaweed. Bomb.

Never been able to get Shin Black but regular Shin Ramyun I discovered aged 18 and have never looked back, 12 years on, still the best instant noodles by far. They even come in cups so I've converted several idiot Pot Noodle fans. I lived off the Big Cups at uni when I was too isolated to use anything but the kettle in my room to cook. That's real AFP imo. Shut in a room with only crisps, a laptop and Shin Cup as company.

We grabbed a few big bags of trick or treat sweets to hand out to kids next week and there were a bunch of Parma Violets in there. They don't taste anywhere near as bad as I remember from my childhood.

But we still picked them out and I gave them to a cow-orker who actually likes them. They don't taste as much of old-lady perfume as they used to, but they're still a gross candy.

Fun fact: parma violets, love hearts, refreshers and other similar (mostly UK-based) sweets are great for heartburn! Because they contain sodium bicarbonate and anti-caking agents like magnesium stearate and magnesium carbonate, they help neutralise stomach acid!

What, the jam? I guess jam, cuke, egg, potato, ketchup, ketchup, and (possibly imitation) crab is a weird assortment, but it's not apocalyptic. I have no idea how they'd work together.

Why do the japanese seemingly have a fixation with perfect cubes of food anyways? Cutting off crusts is weird.

Yes, the jam! I was down with potato and mayo, that's potato salad, fine, and the crab and mayo and ketchup, sure, standard, needs more seasoning maybe, but jam?

And it's Korean and honestly I barely noticed the crusts thing. Sometimes don't eat the crusts myself so sure, cut them off.

I do like it when the kids I work with have sandwiches that their parents have patiently removed the crusts from, and they still manage to eat a perfect ㄷ shape out of them.

google says canned tuna (and its water) is high sodium, but I have never in my life had a can of tuna that tasted salty in any way. Name brand and store brand, none of them seem to have been salted. Is this a thing in some part of the world, where they heavily salt canned tuna???

TBH I haven't read the nutrition label on my tuna cans in many years, I just accept it as an excellent source of protein and heavy metals to be used sparingly. But if it was heavily salted, you would know without reading the can. Because it would taste salty.

edit: I've had smoked ("kippered?") sardines out of a can that were heavily salted, and no tuna I have ever ate was salty like that.

In the UK tuna is sold in oil or in brine. I don't like it oily so buy the brine one and drain, it doesn't really seem to affect the tuna much though

It was never clearly explained why a three year old was still in diapers

Have you ever met a three year old?

Just, I work with them and it is not at all unusual, some kids potty train before 3 but most not. I've worked with 4 year olds who still aren't there. If your kid potty trained at 2, you're one of the lucky ones, trust me. I don't want to be changing a giant 4 year old's nappy any more than you would like it. Sometimes they're just not ready, and sometimes their parents won't let them be ready.

Anyway this is... not the thread for giant baby talk.


This is impressively weird. Why bake the dip? Why have the dip on the side, clearly unbaked, at the end? What does baking the sour cream and green onion thing add to any of it??

I guarantee no one reading this is cooking rice for 20 people in a big pan in a pinch, and if they are they have a rice cooker

Rice is the easiest thing to cook for 2 or 4 people, there's no need to drain the water off a batch of soggy rice
