>Imagine how a lemon would taste if it wasn’t sour, or how honey tastes without the sweetness
I don't think I can. What level do I need to be on the mental apple scale to do that?

>watch italian recipe online
>get told to use these VERY specific ingredients in very specific amounts, else it's not "authentic italian"
>visit italian grandparents
>cooking the same thing I did beforehand
>they just make do with whatever ingredients they have on hand in unmeasured quantities

I still enjoy italian food a lot (pizza, any pasta, lasagna, tiramisu) but I can't say I'm a fan of the "culture" surrounding it.

While you were watching Miley Cyrus stick out her tongue at the MTV Awards and shaking her scrawny little ass to distract you, they were too busy signing this bill to cut $40 Billion in food stamp aid in Washington.

Lol. And you people actually believed that? Why the hell are you Amerilards so misinformed and easily distracted and easy to lie to? Do you even feel ashamed at all? You guys are about to get anal raped economically and they're giving you warning signs of it. But all you care about is Trayvon & Zimmerman, Miley Cyrus, the new PS4 and Xbox One, and other trite bullshit that's just an utter distraction to what's about to be in store for you.

Squash, /ck/. SQUASH!

Winter in particular. Buttercup to be exact. I love it. But it can be so hit and miss sometimes. One will be sweet rich and starchy and the next will have the consistency and bland flavor boiled mashed carrots.

What the secret to picking a good one?

I've heard that picking ones with dull skin and stems still attached tends to work well. Any other tips?
