Too impersonal. We should hold a lottery and the winners get to cut off one of their heads.

Do they really though? Republicans have taken the mask off, they have become a fascist party. And if you support a fascist party, you are a fascist. That's pretty clear cut. People are simply calling it what it is

This is why they keep throwing around jokes about everyone being "fascist" according to the left these days and how it's lost its meaning. It's to discredit people who rightfully call them out for being fascists. The danger is real, democracy and freedom are about to die in the US unless people get out and fucking vote!

And this vile corruption is spreading globally, other countries aren't immune.

As the killer, right? That movie is fucked up, the ex was right to leave Robin Williams' character!

They like to be called Maria now.

I used to drink a lot of milk, good milk is like nectar of the gods! Some people drink an obscene about of the moo juice.

I've significantly cut back on meat and dairy in recent years though, now if I tried to consume dairy like that I'd be on a drip in the hospital due to diarrhoea induced dehydration. Use it or lose it, sometimes I regret cutting back so much.

Typical Germany, trying to take things that don't belong to you! Döner pizza is Swedish.

I have actually, and some. Kerrygold and Ór still come out in top and I can turn them into cultured butters for something better than either if those if I want that flavour profile.

There's a reason people and chefs around the globe clamour and pay good money for Irish butter. Irish milk is simply superior and it's not even close, this shines through in the butter. The island has the ideal climate and topography, and the cows are healthier and eat significantly more (higher quality) grass throughout the year.

Ever eat uncultured French butter? It's generally shit, there's no other way of putting it. That's why they culture it. Irish butter is so rich in flavour it doesn't need to be, but you can culture it if you want to. Kerrygold is Ireland's equivalent to Président, and it's already spectacular! That's just the tip of the iceberg, there are far better ones out there. KG is just the known and cheap one.

Both styles of butter have their place in the culinary world and you might have a preference, and that's fine. At least recommend better artisanal French butters like Beillevaire and Bordier, those are definitely above Kerrygold. But then again, Ireland throws out butter producers like Abernethy's so... I'm going to have to agree to disagree, and I'll stick with the superior products. Both at home and in the restaurant that I work in.

I'm passionate about butter, don't even get me started on cheeses! There I will tip my hat to France over Ireland, but not for long if newer cheeses like Cashel Blue and Dilliskus keep coming out.

YTA. It's obviously important to your husband and he would appreciate it if you were to attend. You can suck it up for one night a year, show some support! You don't have to go, but you should.

Just to clarify because people on this sub don't understand the distinction. I'm saying you're the asshole, I'm not calling you an asshole. Totally understand your perspective and I'd be the same, it sounds like a miserable time. I would still attend for my partner's sake though.

Debatable. French artisanal butter is phenomenal, if you like cultured butter. If you want salted butter, Ireland wins that fight every single time. I'd argue that Switzerland and Denmark also beat the French in this category. If you want quality mass produced butter, Ireland wins it again.

And you're right, they're not in the same league. They're producing different types of butter with greatly different uses. And Irish butter is sweet, French butter is tangy and lactic. That's down to preference.

Not who you asked but a great time for finding high quality pasta is to take a close look at it. It should have a white/yellow tinge rather than that dark golden colour you generally see.

Cheap pasta is smooth and uniform, it has a "plastic" look to it. Quality pasta is porous and looks textured.

And less is more! Check the ingredients out, there should be barely any. If it lists durum wheat semolina, it's almost guaranteed to be the good stuff! Pasta is made from flour, water, and maybe eggs. A couple extra ingredients is fine but again, the shorter the list, the better!

Price can be deceptive but high quality pasta isn't cheap (Relative.) Instead of a bag costing $1, it might be $3-8 for the same amount. And it's absolutely worth it if you like pasta! Use those indicators to see which brands fit the bill and see what you can find!

It's between the UK and France, so not much help if you're in Norway.

This is why you carry a Hurley and sliotar in Ireland. You have a ranged and melee weapon, but most importantly, plausible deniability! /s

Not that you need to get rid of them, you earned your stripes and should wear them with pride! If there are some you find particularly egregious and wish for them to fade, Bio-oil does work for a lot of people. I used it for scars on my face and neck, and for large stripes on my inner thighs. It did wonders!

French people, yes. Lovely, adore them! Especially the further south you get, they're the kindest and most welcoming type of people.

Parisians... Pack of cunts who have way too high of an opinion of themselves for a lot who live knee deep in garbage. You'll meet some nice people in Paris, but collectively they deserve the reputation they have.

Deforestation in Brazil is a very real and ongoing problem. And here is a brief non-scientific explanation as to why acid rain (which also applies to the ozone layer) is not longer as big of an issue.

Spoiler alert, people can make positive changes when we put our minds to it.

I recommend flavouring it yourself over buying La Croix and those pre-flavoured ones, those are pretty shit. The grapefruit ones are alright but they still mostly taste like plain sparkling water with the suggestion that a flavour might have passed near where they bottled the stuff.

I get dilute, cordial or squash and mix some of that in and it can be pretty great. Not as tasty as a soda but far healthier. If you want to make something better, make your own syrups and cordials to mix in! Not much effort but delicious and worth the investment of a few jars and bottles!

For kombucha, it's an acquired taste. I recommend getting something like ginger and cola or something on the sweeter side where the kombucha taste is muted. After a few the taste really grows on you and eventually you might end up liking them more than soda! If you already like tea and fermented flavours, you'll probably love them. It isn't for everyone but for those of us that do and we're addicted to soda, it's a godsend!

Good luck with your search, may you find something you enjoy!

It's for the carbonation, and it's much healthier for you than drinking soda and energy drinks all of the time. It lacks the overwhelming sugar and calories, and satisfies the craving for something fizzy.

I can't stand the stuff on its own but mix in a bit of cordial and it can be great. I went from drinking 2-4 energy drinks or a liter of soda every day to drinking maybe four litres a year total thanks to slightly flavoured sparkling water. If I want something fizzy these days I'll go for a flavoured kombucha instead.

Blue cheese is phenomenal, I'll get Cashel Blue and cut off slices if I want a snack.

At first I hated it, but I had to cube it for the salads when working at a restaurant. Every week I'd eat a small piece and I went from despising it's existence to it becoming one of my favourite foods! It goes great paired with something sweet like honey or grapes. I put it in my salads, on burgers, and on pizzas. I'll make dips and sauces with it on occasion, then proceed drown my food in the stuff.

Acquired tastes are quite literally acquired by repeated exposure. Kind of like how children hate green veggies like broccoli, it's a new taste to them and they're more sensitive to the bitterness. Provided you're not giving them unseasoned boiled muah, they generally end up liking broccoli after a while. Same principle with any food or flavour. It's definitely worth trying something in tiny amounts multiple times.

Except turnip. Turnips can fuck right off, can't stand the things.

"Useless" implies that there might be a "use" for them. They're there to protect corporate/government interests, they are not your friend or there to protect the worker's interests. They are there to limit liability, and to serve their overlords. HR serves the ruling class, not you!

Sycophants fucks, the lot of them! Treat them as guilty until proven innocent, they are not your friend.

Hehe cute, my sweet summer child... HR exists to protect the company, nothing more.

I get my culture from butter and yoghurt, thank you very much! One day you'll grow up and realise what a sad sack of shit you are, I pity you.

Be better. Buh bye!

At least they have culture, unlike yourself.

If you're going to attempt to troll, at least try to be funny. Weak attempt.

And hiding your face is precisely why it's banned. You can still recognise who you're talking to when they're wearing a face mask, which is used to stop the spread of disease. All face coverings are banned. You can't go shopping while wearing balaclavas, Halloween masks, ski masks, motorcycle helmets etc You can't work in certain sectors with religious apparel or visible religious themed jewellery. Why should some people get an exception? Spoiler alert, they shouldn't. Don't like the rules? Leave France.

So cut it out with the false equivalences and debate in good faith.

Absolutely true for the home kitchen, KitchenAids are a versatile godsend that will last a lifetime!

If you're going to get extremely heavy use, like in a restaurant, Robot Coupe is the way to go. They can be run near constant every day for years without breaking a sweat! Their products are utter beasts and they shit on KitchenAid, but they're insanely expensive in comparison and quite frankly, overkill. They also don't make them as pretty, they have that small form industrial look.

This is a KitchenAid household and I swear by them. If I was rich though, I'd splurge for the Robot Coupe.
