Gently Stampeding Rabbits

chingalera says...

Not so much cute as this is problem. All the folks who loved the 'reintroduction of wolves' viddy??-These "cute" little guys need some culling. Bring a pot and some veggies, some marinades and some fat to add to the mix!

Hasenpfeffer for EVERYONE!!

(and feed that poor girl who's feeding these bunnies!!)

Yer right about that Kalle, where's the toasty-buttered-bread and veggies ya Yank cunts??!

-My theory though, why y'all back-a-Bourkers are so back-ass-wards ?? B-12 deficiency. This might explain the pernicious anemia that caused all y'all to sign-off on those insane gun laws you adopted down there when y'all got scared of the invisible boogy-man of run-away mass murder by some of the more whacked-out folks in the herd...That, and yer all sun-baked!!

I don't have a problem with GMOs on principal. If we can develop safe disease and insect resistant foods then I'm all for it. It's easy for people in the west to dismiss GMOs and tell people to grow their own veggies, etc. That's a laudable aim, but it's not practical for everyone. Some people work long hours or don't have the space.

That said, I am wary of it being controlled by the likes of Monsanto.

In short, I trust the science, as long as it is conducted rigorously and used ethically. The jury is still out on both those counts.

NASA's 3D Printer Makes Pizza

Sniper007 says...

... How the hell does this help feed 7 billion people? It is the exact OPPOSITE idea needed to sustain large growing families. I guarantee you, that printed food will be totally devoid of any real nutritional value. Best foods have always been and will always be a large assortment of raw veggies.

Still cool tech, don't get me wrong.

plastic state of mind-empire state of mind parody

chingalera says...

Those thin little veggy bags make about as much an impact in the grand scheme of the environmental clusterfuck as a single wild horse fart. Reserve that guilt for an unwanted pregnancy or maybe changing your car's motor oil on a public beach?

Or, you could simply save them all in a box in your closet where they couldn't choke anemone...I know! Melt them into a giant blob on the end of a pole, a quick-crete base, and you've got public art!

So FUCKING hate public service parodies with too-much-too-little-too-late messages, especially when lame rappers take two minutes to scrawl lamer lyrics on a bev-nap at a tittle bar ass-raping a decent tune to remind idiots to remain idiots.

Hacks und posers.

What bugs the shit out of me is I dont know how to get around using plastic bags when purchasing fruits and vegetables. Each type of fruit or vegetable needs its own separate bag. Throwing those bags away has always bugged me.

Kids React to Veggie Halloween Candy

lucky760 says...

So, there's no message or moral, just kids being disgusted by veggie-based food products and screaming for candy?

My sons have never tasted any candy/chocolate before. I'm glad they aren't little sugar-zombies. This will be the first Halloween where my oldest will actually understand the concept and have fun trick-or-treating, but we're going to donate his booty to other children.

Going to the Doctor in America

Raigen says...

Just read through this whole damn thread. And damn was that tiring. It's been a while since I've spoken up about anything on ye olde 'Sift, and now seems like a good time to do so.

Hi there, I'm a Type 1 Diabetic, and completely dependant on a regular dosage of insulin via a pump. I've been Diabetic for the last 15 years (diagnosed at age 15 during March Break of Grade 9). Thirteen years ago I was put on a pump because I was taking 9 shots a day to try and manage my wildly out of control "beetus". I was on a good diet as well, with few heavy carbs, but my body has a hard time maintaining a good balance of insulin sensitivity.

Now, on to the idea that Type 1 Diabetes can be "cured" or "treated" without insulin... Bollocks. Plain and simple.

Almost two years ago I set it upon myself to get fitter and healthier. I have never been overweight, just the less-than-average amount of fat I would say, but I was bored with how things were going and decided to try something new for my fitness routines; I went 100% Paleo.

Yeah, for almost two years I have rarely (and I mean rarely) eaten anything aside from fruits (one serving a day, two if I'm deserving of it) veggies, nuts and protein. Nothing processed, as little preservatives and chemicals as I can manage (I read *a lot* of nutritional labels when shopping for new foods) and I buy most of my meat and veggies from local farms and farmer's markets.

Has this helped my Diabetes? Extremely marginally. My insulin sensitivity has increased by a fraction... But that's it. Has my pancreas started creating its own insulin? Not a chance in hell.

While doing this whole paleo eating lifestyle I've also been doing a lot of intervals and weight training, and I've made some great strides. But back to the original idea of getting back to "natural" ways of living/eating and "curing" my diabetes? Yeah, no dice there, ladies and gentlemen.

I cannot be without my pump hooked up to my body for more than two hours before I would need to be sent to the hospital. Nothing I have done, with all my dedication, determination, and strong will, has made my Diabetes any "better" than it was when I was first diagnosed. If anything, it has taken more of my time and money and energy to get where I am now, with nothing to show for it from my condition's perspective.

If anyone, anyone at all, thinks they can cure Diabetes Mellitus by eating better and taking better care of themselves I'll suggest this: remove your pancreas and see if your body builds you a new one while you're testing out your hypothesis, because in all seriousness and fairness, that's what it's like to be Type 1. My body killed my pancreas making it a useless, lifeless organ. It will *never* awaken again to produce my own insulin without the help of true science and excellent doctors.

So, you know what I've done, and can take it from me that it will not cure you of your Type 1 Diabetes. Now I want you to tell me what I'm not doing to help "cure myself".

I'm an open-minded skeptic.

... But I'm not so open-minded that my brain will fall out.

Guy films juvenile kestrel in the backyard when suddenly...

enoch says...

i dont understand all the flack peeps are dumping on @shang.

he hunts for his own food.
which means he does not support the grotesque slaughterhouse factories but rather fresh game with no gmo-fed poultry or cattle.no anti-biotic or cancer-ridden pork.

that should be praised ya?

or how about the fact that he is teaching his children responsible gun care and safety.
to not only be more self sufficient and self-reliant but also more responsible and safety conscious in regards to firearms.

how is this a bad thing?

oh...
i see.
its because YOU cant relate to how he provides and teaches his children so therefore what he is doing HAS to be some evil indoctrination to find glee in killing things.

so shang is an asshole because you cant get your head out of yours?
because YOU dont own a gun...
because YOU dont hunt for your food...

single-minded,unenlightened self-righteous twats.

my big sister and brother in law live exactly as @shang does.
they grow their own fruits and veggies and hunt (well,my brother in law does) for all their own meat.

my brother in law tried for years to get me into hunting.
i just couldnt do it and chose to be a hypocrite,much like @Buck,because i was too much a pansy to kill bambi.
i much rather prefer the killing be done away(far away) from me.

but the ignorance and presumption being displayed on this thread in regards to hunting for your own meat is..well..staggering.

oh ..
and before anybody decides to jump the assumption shark and start spouting off redneck and deliverance references.my brother in law is a retired electrical engineer and my big sis has two (count em TWO) doctorates.

/ends rant
/drops mic

jumping on a cat for teaching his kids to hunt...
fucking seriously?
christ on a stick......

Aquaponic Gardening ~ Hydrophnic Aquaculture System

chingalera jokingly says...

Thanks, but the sentiment is better expressed in my adjusted opening, sentence-I was thinking of, "that which is the grocery man's to peddle" (veggies, to be specific), and wasn't really concerned about perception. Both uses are proper without contextualization, eh? Oh, and yer joke, it missed me.Thought you were one of those peeved grammar-types....Oh, and if ya hadn't noticed already, I ass-rape the English language much to the dismay of my non-existent readershipz...Go fuck yourself

Aquaponic Gardening ~ Hydrophnic Aquaculture System

chingalera says...

So if you and about 6 neighbors did this, ya pretty much need a freezer for yer game/protein fix or if yer a veggie-only, yer set. You can make pet food outta the fish or give it to your friends who aren't iodine-deficient...

Have always hated the entire idea of a yard full of non-indigenous grass or shrubberies as well...a waste of garden real-estate! Humanity rally is becoming too fucking stupid to live, huh??

Lentil soup (food for sifting) (Food Talk Post)

oritteropo says...

I like to make my own stock from my veggie peelings and trimmings, I simmer them with a bay leaf and it ends up working pretty well.

Other times I use Massel veggie stock in a tin - http://www.massel.com.au/products/stock_powder.shtml - it's hard to find ones which don't have either MSG (I don't like the chemically after taste of MSG) or palm oil or trans fats (from Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil for instance) but that one is pretty good.

Another nice soup is spring vegetable soup, like this one:
http://www.jamieshomecookingskills.com.au/recipe.php?title=spring-vegetable-bean-soup

Or for the left over split red lentils, these koftesi have almost the same ingredients as the soup but make a quite different meal:
http://vegweb.com/recipes/kirmizi-mercimek-koftesi-red-lentil-burgers

Finally, a hearty soup for carnivores is Scotch broth:
http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/lamb-recipes/scotch-broth-with-winter-root-veg

It's interesting you mention Tamari, my Dad uses gravy powder in his veggie soup Strangely, the gravy powder I have is vegan... not sure how that works, but it tastes spot on.

chingalera said:

MMmmmmm... a few things to consider adding to a basic water/oil/savories type stock for anyone not wanting to use meat or chicken:

Tamari, Bragg's All-Purpose Seasoning, or there's this really good brand of vegetarian boullion Better Than Boullion, comes in about 5 varieties, including lobster and shrimp-You might also try some Traditional Molé, the Mexican paste used for tamales and other dishes...

This is a great basic procedural for most broth based, hearty soups-Nice one, oritteropo

Mmmmmm, loves me some Split Pea Soup now that I'm thinking about it....

Awesome! We Got a New Phone Book!

volumptuous says...

Well, Yellow Pages aren't made from trees. Rather they're made from sawdust and lumber scrap and post-consumable recycled paper, and either soy or veggie ink.

But that doesn't take into account the fossil fuels used to manufacture and deliver them.

They'll stop eventually, but there's still lots of rural communities in the US that don't have high speed internet access, and people rely on the YP.

It should be opt-in to receive them.

Star Trek Into Darkness - International Trailer

coolhund says...

I feel so embarrassed watching this. Why didnt they name it Transformers in Space or something instead? This is like making a burger out of rats... and serving it to vegans as a veggy burger...

Filipino Eggrolls Ala Choggie

rottenseed says...

They're too thick. You need to roll them more tightly and use less filling. I know the veggie ones are harder to do thinly because of the fodder.

The funnest part about lumpia: rolling party!
