the most important part is the type of mushroom. oyster mushrooms taste a thousand times better than champignons and they're not that much more expensive.
heat up your pan (no sissy non stick pans) and then throw in the mushrooms, no oil. you need to get the moisture out first so the pan needs to be really hot and stay hot, this is why non stick is shit. once you've browned one side and the other side of the mushrooms is about 2/3 done you lower the heat so you can add butter and salt otherwise the butter would burn. don't use shit butter. kerrygold or better. don't overdo it, you want to taste the mushrooms, not just butter

>raw carrots and strawberries
Raw plants are not cooked onions that taste like sugar. You have shown me such sights, that I did enjoy.

>yes, yes, I know how you tightly screwed on the top of your moka pot......
>HOWEVER
>You didn't account for the gasket to get caught on the thread preventing a 100% seal
>Enjoy leaking goffee and used ground that smell like french roasted folgers.

Honestly, sad as it is, kittens are r-selected as fuck. They're basically like baby sea-turtles. Most kittens are born to die, and anyone who has worked with kittens and birthing cats knows this deeply. I haven't, but, I've known enough people who have.

I LOVE cats, but part of that is an appreciation for their nature. A plurality of kittens do not reach cat-hood, cats are obligate carnivores who operate on the kill-or-be-killed level, outdoor cats are menaces to the local ecology, they have half the lifespan of indoor cats, and if they aren't spayed or neutered and kept indoors, they basically need to be killed to prevent a much larger negative-environmental-impact including the impregnation of basically-baby-kitten-ladies by un-neutered toms. I love cats but this is part of that understanding of their nature. Watch the movie Kedi and you'll understand as well.

Day 28 of Dry January. I was boozing in a bad bad bad way all 2022 long. I'm surprised that I've gone this far, especially since I tried in September and only made it I think 11 days in. Today I almost cracked. It's the long boring weekends that unnerve me. I planned to just smoke weed whenever I wanted to drink, but only did that one time the whole month. I enjoyed it at the time but it was SO fucking intense, I'm hesitant to do it again.

I look WAY healthier especially in the face but oddly I still have pretty bad sleep and wake up feeling unrested. Maybe it's the winter humidity that's part of it. And one thing is that I just have treated myself to any foods I wanted. No booze, but all the mcdick's I want. Snacking like crazy. But compared to the way I would eat while drinking (that was the whole point - get dickered and eat an indulgent meal) even then I'm coming out ahead.

The mood-swings and hyper-depressive thoughts have DEFINITELY mellowed out though. I recognize all the benefits and have enjoyed them VERY much. But I've had a few days, today is one of them, where it's calling me. I really want a nice citrusy IPA beer. If I did it in a normal way that might be fine, but man I think about the way I was boozing all year... Drinking in such a possessed state, like my brain had no control over my body. Drunk in public and, like a zombie leaving the house dressed in rags to walk to the store for another 6er for the night.... It's shameful. I'm really scared that that might be my relationship with the stuff if I don't kick it in a major way.

most people are extremely basic. a few good ads - that's all it takes to make them believe that mcdonalds isn't bottom of the barrel garbage. the exact same marketing concept worked for nutella and heinz. once you convince the low IQ retards that your product is cool you can do whatever you want. downgrade the recipes every year, raise the prices and make the portions smaller, they won't even notice. they will never even try any alternatives because that's all they know and they are too lazy to check out anything that they aren't familiar with. the fact that it might be much much better has never even crossed their mind

>tfw no nice jewish girl gf
their vaginas are just different. I tried to hit one up from my phone contacts earlier this year after two years of no contact. no dice. kill me. I swear she had a second, tighter vagina at the end of her first one. It's like that Gandolfini character said. You want ass, there's no ass in the world like a young Jewish girl what's hookin'.
"I'll keep that in mind, Mickey"
Yeah you take that to the fuakin' BANK.

Kill me, I coulda got pussy tonight but I canceled and boozed myself out instead. This shit sucks.

>Out of the 3 big fast food chains in the US, how do you think they compare?
They all 3 suck dick
I will rarely buy chicken nuggies and a frosty at Wendys, but I dont buy anything else.
Last time I ate a burger at Wendys, they had just introduced the Baconator. So like 2007

I havent walked into McDonalds once since they raised the price of the McDouble
(I slowed down and havent regularly eaten there since they introduced the McDouble and raised the price of the Double Cheeseburger)

I have not eaten Burger King meal since they had Poekmon toys in the kids meal, so probably 20 years now.
Well thats kind of a lie, I bought their Funnel Cake Fried 4-5 times back in 09, but never a meal.

There are so many more places to eat that dont suck, why would you waste a meal at any of those places?
Your life is short, you dont get THAT many meals. Dont fucking waste them

mildly knowledgeable wino here

for dry reds I recommend buying exclusively French

Italian can be okay too, but its very rare that I've had a truly unappealing dry french red.

currently going through a bordeaux craze, even their cheaper offerings are quite good

I've seen this shilled on both /ck/ and elsewhere, but I'm scared to try any food made in china.

Guys I just finished eating a whole jar a sauerkraut, a sausage, a boiled potato, and a couple beers.

This lasted for about a week for me. What really fucked me up was reading that it could take 6 months to get your taste back while I was still sick.

The janitors on /ck/ are taking kickbacks from Jollibee to ignore their shilling. Hiroshima Nagasaki is in the dark and must be told.

just because something is vegan doesn't mean it is good for you.
2 of the worst foods for you are vegan:
High fructose corn syrup
transfats
