I don't recall the name, it was years ago. Some taco restaurant in centro. I didn't stay more than a few hours, it wasn't an appealing atmosphere.

But I have. I much prefer central and southern mexico. Still great food, minus the grime, despair, and concentrated criminal energy.

Mainstream American carnist society has rabidly limited views of what meats are ok.

Boneless skinless chicken breasts, BBQ "ribs" made of pink slime, and slimy steamed chicken wings slathered in hot sauce and dipped in ranch: ok and good.

Parts of the animal with recognizable anatomical features, animals that are not chickens or cows or pigs bred for leanness instead of flavor: not ok, very icky, possibly vegan, ISIS-influenced, or both.

Lamb, dogs, horses etc: barbaric, how could you do that to such noble creatures! You are disgusting and you obviously hate America.

It's not very good coffee if you treat it like some precious pre-embargo geisha beans individually shat by virgin endangered lombok ground squirrels, but you have to understand it's meant to be consumed as café con leche. Prepared that way, it's decent.

>$5.99
>so expensive

That's pretty reasonable for good meat.

Obviously, if you are accustomed to CAFO garbage, your idea of good meat needs work.

I like it. I find the stigma perplexing. Just don't eat a pile of it, how hard is that? Apparently very hard, if you're a carnist extremist.

There are several Japanese blade shapes like that. Not useful for general cookery but amazing for a single task.

Arroz chaufa, tallarín saltado, and some dumplings, the local name for which I don't remember.

Anyway it tasted like American Chinese food would taste if you tried to make it with ingredients available in rural Peru. The soy sauce was incredibly bland but the flavors were still a welcome change of pace after a steady diet of greasy white rice, greasy potatoes, and hard boiled eggs.

It's for eel. Try to control your gagging noises, you honestly sound like a spoiled baby.

Hard to narrow it down, but one of my most memorable was when I was backpacking in northeast Peru and a local Chinese-Peruvian family made me stop at their restaurant because they didn't see too many Asians in that area I guess. They refused my money and I tried Chinese-Peruvian food for the first time while listening to their explanations of the food and their ethnic narrative.

This was years before you narrow minded people learned about such things via foodie blogs, and I knew full well I was experiencing a gastronomic delight that most sheltered fear-gripped American carnist racists could never dream of. Compared to the Michelin starred joints I've been to, this was a far superior experience in every way.

No, fortunately I am not disabled so I can just buy that stuff the normal way, and it's higher quality, and I don't have to lurk around until the delivery guy shows up.

I suppose maybe if I lived in a food desert I would find that interesting, but then, don't people in food deserts consider stuff like "organic" and "natural" to be trigger words? Let alone wanting to eat weird liberal stuff like fresh vegetables, vegan shit like walnuts, bread with weird seeds all over it (probably islamist), and eggs that are the wrong color (probably would make you sick?!)

I just don't see who the market for this is supposed to be.

Cooking vs raw makes no difference for prions. Eat some tartare. It's good.

They were among the first modern Japanese knives to be commercially available in the US and "knife guys" (picture: "beer guys" with the same neckbeard and assburgers, but REALLY into cutting tools) absolutely despise them because they are watered down soccermom mall trash made of VG10, the most pleb of steels.

For instance this guy right here. The reason they are 'chippy' is that thousands of people bought them back in the 90s before it was common to look everything up on the internet before lifting a finger. Running it through an electric sharpener is going to do that, as we now know. But back then, it was folk wisdom that stainless steel is shit. The results the first global and shun customers got when they used the wrong tools pretty much confirmed that.

Even chicken thighs and chicken feet are exotic. Wings are of course well known because of hooters, and breasts are "normal meat" and everyone knows that. But self-appointed "foodies" have declared thighs to be a superfood with dramatic and unusual textures and flavors, the antithesis of the pedestrian breast which is not ok to like.

Carnists are amazing.

Actually the term "normies" was first used in the Garbage Pail Kids movie. The meaning was pretty much the same, though.
