Bones are organs! that counts!

This can only read as hypocrisy when you portray “everyone who plays video games” as a single character

Lettuce grows in a bundle of very tightly packed leaves. At no part in the growing - transport - shelving - selling chain can anyone be expected to thoroughly wash between the leaves, especially near the root. Rinse your veggies before using.

On that note, try adding a little splash of balsamic vinegar to caramelized onions 👌👌

I agree, but the comment above recommends using it to caramelize onions. Maillard reactions can happen to onions for sure but the result of that is not caramelized onions.

Not to say baking soda couldn’t help, I don’t know the exact chemistry behind this stuff, but I do know that onion + maillard reaction does not yield caramelized onions

Maillard browning is not caramelization. Maillard is an insanely complex mess of different chemical reactions involving proteins, while caramelization is just sugar and heat.

I usually get these little dudes in the summer. I let them be when I can stomach it, but I have this one lamp at my desk pointed up at the wall to give me some indirect light. Occasionally a house centipede will crawl along in front of the light and cast a really long shadow to freak me the hell out.

Ominous

The niche being food for fish that share their ecosystem in larval stages, and birds/bats/frogs that share their ecosystem in their adult stage.

If we were to somehow magically remove mosquitos from existence in an instant, we’d better hope something fills their ecological niche quickly

Known in Australia as Billabongs

I understand what you’re saying here, but the set of people killed by “every disease ever” includes the entire set of people killed by mosquito-borne diseases. Mosquitoes can’t have killed more people than every disease ever because mosquitoes’ kill count is part of every disease ever.

“I don’t have to change my behavior” is the most trivially easy thing for anyone to convince themself.

To be clear, the drinks labeled ginger beer in every store i’ve been to is VERY different from the one labeled ginger ale

It’s pretty likely that the temperature needed to polymerize the oil would destroy whatever compounds are responsible for making olive oil taste and smell the way it does. Plus, if done well, seasoning creates a permanent bond between the polymer and the metal, so you probably wouldn’t get anything to come out of the seasoning into the food.

As for adding iron to the food, you might be thinking of acidic foods causing iron to leech out into the food. If the seasoning is “perfect” then this might not happen, but any weakspots in the seasoning can allow acids to corrode the pan if they’re left there long enough. Common advice you’ll find is to avoid cooking acidic food for long periods of time (e.g., simmering tomato sauce for several hours)

My point being that if someone didn’t like little caesars and concluded that pizza is bad, that opinion is terribly uninformed

American is so mild that an even somewhat flavorful cheese will overpower the hell out of it. I’m not worried about a single slice of american diluting my cheese sauce. Not to any perceptible degree, anyway.

Where I’m from, we have access to sharp american cheese. It slaps.

Pointing to kraft singles and insisting that “american cheese bad” is like pointing to Little Caesars and insisting that pizza is a lousy food.

There’s at least one instance on futurama where a space ship is flown through a drive-through that’s just out in the vacuum of space
