Populism Updates @PopulismUpdates Tell me your most radical position that cannot be placed on the left-right political spectrum
Admiral Snaccbar @Chris Mench Serving shrimp with the tail still on when it’s already mixed into something (pasta, rice, etc) is insane.

Just eat the tail
Onions don’t belong on food
I’m devastated.
My hot dogs…
What? Explain yuself
You asked for my most radical opinion.
It’s an ADHD texture thing, the texture of onions does not mesh with any other food (maybe edible paper?), so it’s always jarring to bite an onion while eating food.
Props my dude. Don’t feel ashamed by that!
I got a coworker who cannot stand ruffle chips. Like, not just the texture, but the sound it makes grinding on each other.
I’m with you when the onions are raw. Cooked, the texture is tolerable enough that the taste is worth it IMO. Though I do prefer them chopped small or sliced thin no matter what.
Only to be eaten like apples.

People don’t eat the tail?
The insane part is taking the heads off.
I once had pasta with whole mussels mixed in. Could never be too sure my next bite wouldn’t have a big chunk of shell in it. Shit was expensive for what it was too, they definitely could have paid some guy just to stand there in the kitchen and remove the shells as it goes onto the plate for what we were paying. Not a radical opinion this just reminded me of it.
People who order and eat chili mussels (with shells) at restaurants are insane and are getting ripped off. it is the least practical dish, and by weight, half of it is inedible. I think it’s also a massive pain in the ass for kitchen staff to prepare.
None of the doom and gloom really matters, every human in history has lived in a time of crisis. How we handle the challenges at hand determine the challenges for those that follow, but panicking about it is a waste of energy.
It’s really hard to accept this these days. Before new media, people often had no idea what was going on outside their town or villiage. Must have been bliss (Except for the entrenched poverty, filth, disease and oppression of course lmao). Now it’s hard to avoid learning about who got killed in what gruesome way today.
This is Korea. For whatever reason every single animal they consume that has unpleasant bits inside, they leave em in. Bony fish, bony chicken, grisly pork, soup full of shelled shellfish, and shrimp with tails. Hell, frequently entire shrimp head and all. Also locally where I live they have these different shrimp that have I dunno extra tough and sharp carapace. They don’t even try to shuck those things.
I’ve had similar experiences with SE Asian cuisine. They just don’t seem to have the same standards for butchering and meat preparation that we do in the West. Hell, I know of one SE Asian culture that doesn’t even have any sort of defined meat cuts. They just chop it all up into big chunks. Doesn’t matter what part of the animal it is, it’s getting chopped up into big bits.
It just takes longer to eat. Great at at Big party with lots of beer.
The Country of Waste Not, Want Not
Oh definitely. It wasn’t that long ago there were some pretty hard times here. The older generation remembers.
All of us who are old enough to have grown up around depression era survivors in the United States are familiar with that too.
My grandma is over 100 and still licks the plate clean after eating. Things like that get ingrained with you
My mom was born during the Great Depression and re-uses ziplock bags. On the other hand, she insists on brand-name everything instead of generics or store brands, so it’s not purely about frugality.
Yeah but name brands mean you buy it once and it doesn’t fail as often, is the argument for that I get from those of that generation.
And I mean I get it. Buy a cheap pair of shoes or a good pair and you will realize you will go through 3 of the cheap pairs at half price compared to buying 1 good pair.
Though less so with each passing year since name brands are designed to fail now too.
Yeah, I’m 30 and I feel like I’ve never had the experience of being able to rely on a name brand consistently. Everything seems to fall apart. Sometimes you get something great, but when it comes time to replace it and you buy the exact same thing from the exact same company it comes at a much lower quality
Ironically, it was about 30 years ago that brand names started really leaning into shrinkflation, and enshitification, riding off the merits of their previously good name.
Its so fricking hard to find the trustworthy brands.
I’m honestly just so willing to not have any brand loyalty and to suffer with making a bad pick that I have to return or fix myself, I constantly having to re-find what is considered actually good quality.
The answer is a lot of name brand in the higher price range but not so high that it’s just for padding a contractor’s quote and percent take home is still good quality. And you can never go for the same model twice if the company is doing constant refreshes cause those are with cheaper components every time. (Allowance for first refresh fixing a flaw)
제주닥새우? But they taste sooo good
Yup. That’s super gross. I totally agree.
But, probably not for the same reason.
Found… ! Oh…
found the vegan
Beat ya to it.
Clever
Epsom Salt is the only over the counter laxative I will take.
My neighbor fancies Manx so I never get a chance to eat the tails.
Right?? I love shrimp but I hate eating things with my hands. No matter the dish, I pull those tails off and I know how to do it without losing any meat. I can’t stand tails on shrimp as I’m trying to eat
Han shot at the same time.
Han shot. That’s it. There were no other shots.
One Big Union.
You can just eat the tails
You can eat the heads too but I’d prefer not to have them in my spaghetti, same goes for the tails
I had a Japanese-American girlfriend for a couple of years who would gladly dispose of the prawn heads for me. I tried them (“how bad could they be?”) but it was a taste I could never acquire. And I’m open-minded about food-- tried natto and got to enjoy it, same with uni, even managed to have Taiwanese stinky tofu. The only other food I could never stomach was balut.
Excellent source of dietary Chitin
You can eat ass too, doesn’t mean everyone is into it
We’re fucked. We’re probably witnessing the last decade of relative stability.
People have been saying this for thousands of years, though.
Bold of you to assume I hail from land of bacon and guns. If I come to your land I’ll be seen as someone who eats cats. So either way I’m in shit.
Climate refugees are going to turn the “migrant crime” rhetoric into overdrive. My opinion, but it’s clearly the Boogeyman that Fascism is rallying against. There are great swaths of land that are experiencing temperatures and severe weather that are incompatible with human life.
Fascists don’t have the foresight to think of consequences of climate change. They’re also in denial that climate change is a thing at all, since one of their sources of funding is fossil-fuel extractors, including a certain large Eurasian nation-state.
Their real motivation for being anti-immigrant is that they are racist scum who are always looking for vulnerable populations to victimise.
Yeah I don’t want shrimp shaped toenail in my food thank you. Or any toenail for that matter
