I may go vegan

[Pittsey]

Right. Don't trust reports from Stanford and other prestigious schools because people donate to them so they're in their pockets. Only trust us, the people who advocate organic foods. So please, buy organic (to support our growing billion dollar business). It won't give you more nutrients, but it'll sure make you more arrogant and morally superior to those poor fucks who can't afford it!

Exactly. You can't trust any of them. They all have an agenda. That's what I was trying to say.

i don't trust those mexicans at the farmer's market either lol. they roll up on like a sunday to the city then by like thursday, they're in your neighborhood with the same shit from sunday. obviously i'm joking about the mexican part (although they're mexican because only mexicans are willing to work in eastern washington on the farms) but i'm serious about the time the produce just sits in trucks and shit. like, you know the food at the farmer's market isn't delivered on the same day it's fucking picked and shit? it depends, but this is just my experience.

I think the consensus on organic is that pesticides or any other chemicals found in non-organic do get absorbed by the body (aren't simply passed through with no harm) but they don't know what exactly yet. While any change to your body calls for some caution, it may not be as dire as your cock falling off or turning into a blackie overnight. Maybe it passes through and alters something minute which may not have lethal effects. We don't know. I feel a lot of studies are exaggerating the potential bad effects.

Also - Cigarettes or coke is more likely far more harmful.

Yeah. High fructose, as well as the danger of plastics releasing estrogen-like chemicals makes soft drinks pretty fucked up.

Don't speak like that about cigarettes.

If I didn't have cigarettes and coffee I would be extremely unpleasant to everyone. I'm being extremely pleasant today though, for two reasons. The first is that it's Jets football day and I am SO PUMPED. The other is that I have Vicodin. (I had oral surgery two days ago.) So even if the Jets lose I probably won't mind.

I miss having my morning smokes. Living my with my parents is >>>>>>> life back at school, but I miss smoking so much that I may have to start sneaking smokes in the garage again. Which only happens on days that I have off from going to the clinic.

I forgot to tell you earlier. If you think baked chicken is too dry, mix some chicken broth with water and throw it in the bottom of the pan. it keeps the chicken nice and moist.

Is baked chicken what you Americans call Roast Chicken?

Because if that's too dry, you are doing something wrong. My Roast chicken is lovely and juicy....

I'm not sure, but baked chicken that I think of is a piece of chicken, not a whole chicken, that is put in the oven.

For me, when I think of roast chicken, I think of a rotisserie chicken. That's the whole one.

My parents have been drinking Kefir for a few years now, but they've also started buying the fruit-flavored smoothie ones. Which are amazing. I usually end up drinking two big glasses throughout the day.

I can't help if you North Americans have fucked up the English language.


I was going to say Americans and really piss you off....

Haven't tried it, don't really see it around. What's the brand name? Lifeway?

I drink the lifeway brand kefir which is pretty good. You get it in Meijer in Michigan which is just a general grocery store. I dont think you need to find a Whole Foods

Huh? What else would you call a piece of chicken that when you cook it, you put it in the oven, you turn the oven to the bake setting and let it cook?

You really have never heard of this?

 

[Jokerman]

A carcass.

Because we call it Roast Chicken in the UK. It's a traditional dish that has been around since before we colonised North America. Like with a lot of my language, you barbarians have changed it. I understand what baking is, I understand what a chicken is. We just don't call it that.

Do they call it baked Chicken in Australia, as the Aussies didn't bastardise our language so much, and I didn't think Canada did either.... ?

Come to London. I think you'd hate it

A Rotisserie oven cooks a rotisserie chicken though...
I am not liking the sound of this Kefir. I don't think I will be trying it. Is it a South Asian thing?

 

[Pittsey]

A quick google -


There also seems to be a convention associated with the terms “bake” and “roast.” Although the two identify almost identical cooking techniques, in the modern kitchen anyway, “baking” is most generally associated with breads, cakes, pies and casseroles while “roasting” is what you do to meat or vegetables.

Well, fair cool. When I think roast chicken I think of a chicken you'd cook at thanksgiving, or christmas, or easter. That type of shit. Baked chicken would be something I'd cook on a weekly basis, ya know? Fucking North Americans.

I'm not sure what they call it in Australia. The Aussies are a weird bunch. If you watch their TV, they follow American news stories and happenings like it's a weird type of obsession. But then all the TV programs are British or the horseshit they produce domestically. They are like a confused teenager. They don't know if they want to be British, American, or something that is their own. It's very funny to observe as an outsider.

PS. I think I'd love London. I am extremely good at being a chameleon.

So how's your veganism, sir?
