Asparagus should be steamed, and only to the point where it starts to become limp enough to puncture with a fork. Properly cooked and then served with lemon juice, vinegar, or hollandaise sauce, it's quite tasty and definitely un-okra-like. Eggplant, on the other hand .... 🤐 I shall have to give asparagus another whirl at some point. Aubergines I like, in a moussaka. I cannot think that I have had them elsewhere.

That's good stuff. Too bad all you can get any more is just plain old boudin. Too many people made it wrong and made themselves deathly ill so they outlawed it.

They are either the opposite (biscuits and cookies) or completely different. Hot dogs are not a sausage. You really don't want to know what is in them. Pants? I don't think I wanna know...

But at the same time, if you're buying industrially produced lasagna from a big brand who outsource their production to companies abroad and barely put any proper ingredients even on the actual ingredient list to begin with, you pretty much get what you pay for. It's not unheard of for factory produced foods to contain traces of everything from soil and insects to human seed and teeth, it being the 'wrong farm animal' appears a minor inconvenience in the bigger picture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it, Gregorian! The maggots don't bother me, but the bacteria they might harbor does. I'd probably avoid that cheese unless it's in something well cooked. A few years ago, I got a some white, hulless popcorn from a local Amish farmer. While preparing to pour it into my popcorn container, I noticed a li'l wiggly fella poking trough the plastic bag. I put him under my microscope and identified him as a pantry moth larvae. Wanting to know what fraction of the kernels were infested, I counted and weighed 50 kernels, then poured about 500 kernels worth of corn into a glass dish. I poured a mix of isopropyl alcohol and water into the bowl and waited to see who popped out. Here's the result, about 40 of 'em... 8% wastage didn't seem too bad. To prevent the remaining larvae from morphing into pantry moths, I microwaved the entire batch for a couple minutes. Although cooked bugs aren't an issue for me, it was unlikely I'd end up eating any because infested kernels, with punctured hulls, don't pop. This particular batch was, I think, more delicious than average! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
