Don't actually start shit please.

So my take

meat takeis that boneless chicken wings are in all ways superior to normal chicken wings.

vegetarian takeFirm tofu is hands down better than all other forms of tofu, tempeh, etc.

And mash potatoes on pizza isn't actually that bad. Just make it a proper pureé instead of smooshing up a baked potato with a spoon and calling it a day.

doing a pizza with spicy hummus instead of tomato sauce is superior in every way, also pineapples on a hummus pizza is S-tier and italians can eat my ass anti-italian-action

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Okay hummus pizza sounds like a completely untapped market that can make you serious bank if you do it right

I never really liked ice cream at all, and this isn't even me speaking as a vegan. Before going vegan, I hated ice cream, and nowadays, even dairy-free ice cream is totally unappetizing and unenjoyable to me.

Ketchup sucks shit. Really good ketchup only sucks moderately less shit than regular.

Butter is overrated and vegetable oil is a more than suitable alternative for most instances and in double blind testing most people could never guess which one is which

Italian food is mid. Sweet food sucks. Acidic food sucks. Savory and sour is where it's at. Czechs are better at cooking than the Fr*nch who think they're culinary masters for making animals eat only butter and using endless garlic and butter on everything. Wine is also garbage. Thick, dark beers (so dark they taste like chocolate and bread) are the optimal way to drink alcohol.

Dunno about the Czech cooking part since I don't think I've had anything Czech besides beer, but 1000% agree.

if you leave tofu to it's own devices it tastes of nothing + the faint taste of soybeans (depending on type)
so if someone doesn't like the taste of tofu

  • they have cooked it with something that tastes bad
  • their tofu has gone off
  • they are both extremely sensitive and averse to the taste of soybeans

The texture of refried beans makes it inedible. It also looks like diarrhea.

A good pizza is the best tasting food, superior even to high end dining.

But most pizza is pretty shit.

Your geographic distance from Oaxaca/Chiapas is directly proportional to how bad your Mexican food tastes.

not a hot take more like a disgusting thought but I wonder what would happen if you made cheese with a mixture of soy and dairy milk, so it has that whey AND soy protein, i wonder what that would be like

[–] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Honestly probably delicious

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Okay that's a winner hot take right there

[–] WizardOfLoneliness@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

the best part is thanks to modern science you could do this and it could still be vegan! Thanks fungal whey protein!!

[–] Slatlun@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Sorry, I have to do it - Whey is the part of milk that is (mostly) not in cheese. It is the byproduct of cheese making.

i think, as an american, we can really work on our relationship with food.

also food packaging should be more fun to look at, i just like good graphic design

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Best potatoes on pizza are sliced thin and layered under the cheese, just peeking out in the crust side
