Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
On meat/fish I will use a salt and pepper mix before I grill it. More pepper than salt. Other than that I dont use it. My wife come from a culture that uses a lot of salt so I've bent a little if I'm making rice but have mostly stopped eating rice. I'm down to maybe 1 at most 2 times a week as opposed to my former 7 days a week.101Walterton wrote: ↑20 Mar 2019, 5:51pmI never use it in cooking, you can't tell the difference.revbob wrote: ↑20 Mar 2019, 5:48pmYeah it's way overused when you eat oat in most places or get any packaged food.

Holy shit can my wife pour on the salt. I thought I used a lot but she has me beat.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
My mother was never a good cook, but one thing always stuck out with me. She overloaded food with salt while cooking it, which makes it ten times worse. I remember gagging a lot as a kid because it was so bad.revbob wrote: ↑20 Mar 2019, 5:56pmOn meat/fish I will use a salt and pepper mix before I grill it. More pepper than salt.

Thanks for the well wishes. I am chugging ginger tea and devouring fistfuls of vitamin c.

I don't know the science behind this, but I've cured the common cold a few times by getting drunk. I'm not sure it would work with the flu, but hope you feel better!

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
My mom was the opposite, although not a good cook she didnt use salt really. Her lack of cooking skill seems to have inspired 3 of her 4 children to become at least pretty good cooks. We at least like to cook, she saw it more as a thing that needed to be doneMimi wrote: ↑21 Mar 2019, 7:57amMy mother was never a good cook, but one thing always stuck out with me.

Re: Return of the Mighty Observations Thread
Lately random people have been striking up wiers conversations with me. Like today I'm buying a six pack. This guy just hanging out in the store asks "Is that alcohol?" I say yeah its beer. He then says "You know what would be good? If they combined caffeine and alcohol." He then keeps going on about it as I walk out the store. I must be getting soft because in the past I've been told I look unapproachable.
