This makes me laugh too as a Brit - but it goes along with the way Americans pronounce Leicester, Tottenham, Derbyshire.. the list goes on! (I’m sure there are lots of American things I pronounce wrongly too, by the way!)

Oh I will fight you and bear the standard for apple pie (not too sweet, definitely not too much cinnamon) any day of the week.

I think the Massachusetts folks have a leg up on this. I never have trouble pronouncing Wohstahsheer sauce! No problem with Lehstah either.
But I’m probably pronouncing Tottenham wrong.

This.

And I'll raise you and say no one needs to eat animal products, period.

Need to? Of course not.

Want to, because they're delicious? Absolutely.

Yep, and answer that perpetuates the selfish and entitled paradigm.

You're right. they are delicious. And they also have to DIE for your pleasure.

I hope aliens never invade this planet. You: Please don't eat me. Them: (in a whiny, entitled voice) But you're so delicious, I can't help myself...

And, frankly, this is what makes me so sick of all of the #wokeness. Save all the humans! Every life matters!

Oh, wait, animals? F**k 'em, they're delicious.

Hypocrites.

I think meat should be eaten sparingly and with great respect. Especially in light of environmental strain. However, what about the circle of life? Are you going to go lecture lions about eating gazelles? Also, you better make sure you don't own so much as a pair of leather shoes or a leather-bound book, otherwise you're a massive hypocrite.

NP here.

Animals will kill other animals for nutrition, and they are instinctively primed that way. . Many other animals are not and do not. We need to be in that group. There's no need, it's unhealthy, and it contributes terribly to the environment, and it's torture.
You can buy other kinds of shoes, but even now buying 2nd hand anything, even leather, helps.

It is insanity .. all that works .. those layers while you still chew it and swallow it.. and for the stomach it is all the same. Why all the trouble?

I love deconstructed lasagna.

Would you have any objection to being served blenderized food at a party? Just toss it all in a blender, pour in a glass. Refills are easy, too. Easier to serve and clean up, and for the stomach it's all the same.

I would rather eat at home, come to the party and chat with happy rested hostess then pooped one who had to slave to prepare lasagna.

Honestly, are you familiar with Poke sushi? Same difference. This stuff tastes the same in layers or mixed up.

Sure, but if it's all going to end up the same in the stomach, why not?

As for me, I like different textures, and I like the layers. I also enjoy baking to it's not a hardship. I'm just confused as to how it ends up in the stomach is your goal point.

Oddly enough, chewing your food is an important part of the digestive process. Like if you feel bloated after meals, it could be because you don’t chew your food enough. So eating deconstructed lasagna isn’t the same as popping it in a blender and just gulping it down.

+1 The texture/chewiness is DISGUSTING.

Unless you truly have a disease.. going gluten free does absolutely nothing to improve your health in any way.

The ONLY good pie? No, but one of the best ones.

Sorry, no. And i was a disbeliever.

I'm not celiac. But, when I started to cut down significantly on breads and "regular" pasta, my GI issues improved. A lot. Like, a huge amount. When I have a big plate of gluten pasta, or a couple of slices of pizza . . it's a bad, bad night for me.

I like white chocolate too (but in small doses).

BUSTED! Chocolate does not come in bags.

Is this a joke? It most certainly does. Especially this time of year. Just saw bags of the easter candies (Wegmans brand), all in bags. Including Chocolate.

Totally agree! You would never know it was even in the lasagna.

The texture is totally different. Cottage Cheese does not belong in Lasagna. Period.
