/ck/ - Food & Cooking

You're probably younger than most of your family. Chances are they did try them before you were even born. The world did exist before you did, you know.

I did ask. They love clams and oysters they said mussels filter feed and are dirty. Theyve never tried them before.

Clams and Oysters are also filter feeders (along with most other bivalves)
Seems like there are a handful of carnivorous clam species, but it really doesn't seem like they're commercially harvested, and it also seems they just are filtering out tiny shrimp instead plankton.

Just means more for you, OP. Let the peasants fight among their chicken tenders and fries while you dine on the finer parts of life.

>>13831890
it really depends on how you are raised. if your family is the kind that only eats a couple of things and a couple of things ONLY then that aint gonna change. my dad is the kind of guy which would try fucking platypusses if it where avaible in the supermarkets.

>>13831890
Do you like shit?

>>13831890
They aren't a bottomfeeder like u

>>13831890
I too wish your family hadn't bred.

Just remind them that all meat is muscles.

Boom still got it.

Newflash, humans are bottom feeders. The reason we could be so widespread on the planet was because we would eat literally anything. Every organism with a restrictive diet is more likely to die off. You are literally a genetic failure like the panda and the koala, if you're a pickey eater.

Enjoy your parasites.

>genetic failure like the panda and the koala
koalas did pretty well out of the miocene aridification of Australia desu

>>13831890
why do you care whether or not they eat it?

it's kind of bothersome that my boyfriend is a picky eater, he wouldn't even try dates.

>>13833394
Hard to have a romantic relationship without dates...

>>13832622
Probably because he enjoys them and wants to have them see of they also enjoy them. Increases the likelihood they will eat them perhaps.

I hate this too

>me
Try this its so good
>no thanks
>me
Dont fucking be like that try it

>>13831890
If you learn to cook you dont have to rely on your parents choice of food.

No, thats the thing. I just moved out and my parents came over for dinner. I made a seafood soup. Cod, shrimp, scallops, mussels and clams in a homemade shellfish broth. Shit was fucking delicious imo. They just refused to eat it because it had mussels in it. I even made a seperate batch for my dad because he has a shrimp allergy (using leftover lobster shells, crab claws and the lil feets from the scallops to make a shrimpless stock) made some homemade cheddar garlic knots, and a nice lil ceasar salad because they both love them. They ate the salad, the bread, drank all my wine and ordered dominos. I dont care if they seriously have tried mussels before and dont like them. But them being my guests and not even trying them, acting repulsed and ordering take out without eating my shit was pretty rude.
Whatever im just venting.

>>13831999
Yes. Most if not all bi-valves filter feed. Which is why i thought their reasoning for not wanting to try mussels was obsurd.

>>13832277
double dubs of truth

>>13831890
All it takes is one bad mussle, and youll have the time of your life

>>13832369
if you eat a mussel that look like that you deserve to die

>>13831890
I feel you bro. My ex gf had that exact same attitude towards my cum.

>>13834973
You kicked them out, right?

>>13834973
>They ate the salad, the bread, drank all my wine and ordered dominos.

What a bunch of chads. How do they put up with such a mincing faggot?

>>13831890
I fucking love mussels, but god damn catching them can be a pain in the ass
the shells just pierce the bottom of your foot so easily its not even funny

>>13831890
I'll preface this by saying, last time I was in a position to eat mussels I was like ten years old, and just the smell made me physically ill

As an adult, the thought of it still grosses me out, I don't know if I'd try it even now...just seems disgusting.

>>13831890
I agree, if your family hadn't been allowed to breed you wouldn't be here

>>13834973
>They ate the salad, the bread, drank all my wine and ordered dominos

Fuck

Mussels are so based
Garlic cream
Cooked with carrot, celery, onion
I would choose them over a 12 years old virgin girl.

>>13834973
So wait you knew your dad was allergic to shrimp and you make shrimp for dinner?

>>13831890
I know right? idk why people are so against bat soup. have you had bat? it's probably tasty af. imagine the wings roasted crispy.

>>13834973
Nah nigga I wouldve told them have a good night and slammed the door once I heard them call domino's.

You slaved over a stove making them a nice meal and they slap you in the face like that? Nah wey. I wouldn't hold a grudge and I'd move past it but it'd let them know that's disrespecting me and my house by politely asking them to leave . "Hope y'all liked the salad guys bye have a goodnight (: "

We can eat anything, but it stresses the body to do so. A balanced diet on rotation is better than a random diet of everything. We are not bottom feeders or scavengers except when nessecity demanded it. In a natural setting we are the apex predators, able to hunt anything we please through tool use and teamwork. This was true since we became homo sapiens. The idea that you are so petty and disrespectful of your family, as well as cowardly enough to come here and whine about them is likely why you consider everyone, aka psych 101: yourself, a bottom feeder. You are a pathetic specimen of our race.
