Lobster especially is just pointless and expensive. Scallops, too. Clams are good though. |

Ok, I'll play. What does "sparingly and with great respect" look like? And I can't quite follow the line of thinking that compares lions eating gazelles with the way humans farm animals for the specific purpose of killing them... What we do is not the circle of life. What we do is wide scale murder (yes, I know the actual definition of murder - but what else is it?), simply because "they are delicious". As far as other types of consumable animal products, I was not brought up this way. This is a late in life recognition and choice, so I do my absolute best to ensure that I am doing better every day in my choices - and at least I register that there is hypocrisy in my journey. All the people screaming how lives matter and then chowing down their KFC, rib eyes, or whatever? Sorry, that's hypocrisy. |
Nice deflection... Next. |

I really hate grilling, and I don't particularly love grilled food cooked by others. Most people underseason and overcook when they're grilling.

| 9 out of 10 macaroni and cheese dishes are bland, rubbery, and not worth the calories. |
Try Alton Brown's stovetop mac and cheese recipe. No baking, no rubbery broken cheese. |
Not a deflection. It's not some crazy mental gymnastics to come to the conclusion that human lives are more valuable than animal lives, although it's obvious that you disagree. And that's fine. Don't want to eat meat? Swell. But it doesn't make me a hypocrite to value a human's life over a pig's. Next. |
Disagree. Also it’s pretty much the same as British. With a few tweaks. |
| Oh goody, the “eating meat is murder” poster is here to kill all the fun. Way to ruin a perfectly good thread. |
| Much of haute/nouvelle cuisine is a trite mess. Give me something delicious and real - Ugly Delicious style - not some precious micro greens tweezered over predictable ingredients swimming in butter. |
| Chocolate mints are gross. |
| I really don't like most tomato sauces. I much prefer pasta with brown butter, or just a bit of olive oil, butter, and Parm. |
Is not. But, hey, that is your opinion. As a European I like American breakfast, just not all the time. |
Yes! These taste like soap |
