Take a potato and then either boil or steam the potato until it's tender. Like you wanna poke a fork or knife in and go "oh yeah, that's tender" and then they're good.

Then you let them cool down until they're cool enough to handle, then get your fangers in there and shred 'em up, just tear them into bite sized pieces.

Once you got your chunks, throw them in the deep fryer and fry those bad boys until they're golden brown and crisp all over

Then toss 'em in salt and seasoning. Today I did a little bit of Old Bay and then some creole seasoning because i don't really like old bay

There you go, you have one of the sexiest potatoes imaginable, it'll look something like this:

Just wondering what the consensus would be. Is it good and fine (if you like the taste, of course) because it is truly 100% vegan? Or would y'all consider it a horrifying simulacrum of a product of cruelty towards animals?

I am asking because I'm a vegan chef and I was excited to find out that they're making animal-free "dairy" milk through bacterial/fungal fermentation, because plant based "milks" don't really work the same as cow milk does. And theoretically if it has the right proteins/fats it could be used to make vegan cheese that has the actual properties of cheese? So like I think it's very exciting personally. But I'd like to know what others think before I suggest we try to order some, since it'd be a waste if nobody actually wanted to eat anything made with it.

But i thought comin' to Jesus was a sin 🤔

Russia wants Trump to win, right? Well, Trump only won because of Joe Biden doing nothing for 4 years, then staying in the race despite being clearly too demented to be competent right up until it was too late- these actions DIRECTLY resulted in TRUMP'S ELECTION.

My chef friend is arguing with me and IMO she is just straight up fucking wrong. Cooking tomatoes to death during the canning process isn't going to do any favors for the texture or flavor. Every canned diced tomato i've had has been gross (and the dice is always too big and ugly)

I think she's 100% confusing a comparison between QUALITY canned tomatoes i.e. real san marzano tomatoes versus shitty greenhouse grown tomatoes but she's insisting that no actually canned tomatoes are just better

I just want to get a consensus but i'm going to continue to disagree with anyone else who is wrong about this

if only he were present for the last 4 years, idk

just sayin' dawg

why aren't you doing your part?

hey, do we have any Foundation guys here, dudes or non dude guys who know stuff about foundations? like how bad does this look

There wasn't any noticeable shifting on the floors inside. The realtor used a phone app as a level but I'm pretty sure that's real iffy as an accurate measuring device.

the big crack on the corner by the exposed cables is on a side of the house near a large tree on the neighboring property

the realtor thought the shifting in the foundation was caused by the drain (covered by leaves in one of the pics) dumping water straight down, but when I looked at it again I noticed concrete that was poured under the gutter, probably intended to slant away and divert it into a little ditch leading to the street

so I'm thinking the shifting in the foundation predates the drainage issue and was maybe caused by the tree? I didn't see any big roots TOO close but, idk

this house is kind of small (smaller than our apartment) but it's in a bourgie cracker restaurant neighborhood, or close enough to walk to it, so I imagine the ol' housing-as-commodities we got going on means it will constantly increase in value as long

but idk if something like this means it's like totally fucked because we can't really afford to buy this place AND put tens of thousands of dollars into some foundation repair bullshit

p.s. side note it has a really nice neighborhood, neighbor across the street has a FREE SEED LIBRARY! and a COMMUNITY PLANT EXCHANGE! that's amazing, the neighbor on the side grows peppers and idk what else in above ground containers, looks like spicy shit too. The other neighbor is a soccer fan but nothing can be perfect right?

p.p.s. the realtor kept speaking of insane plans to expand the bathroom but it also has a very large attic that like imo if finished could add like A Bunch of Value to the house? so, idk, it might be a good idea???

it's so hard to decide because it's so much money and contracts and like what if the foundation is totally fucked??? I guess the owner was a contractor and he checked it out when he bought it, but it's been a rental property since 2007. The HVAC also looks old.

but if we take too long to decide, someone might just buy it up because like why not it's in this great location! who cares if the foundations is fucked if you have a million dollars to spend fixing it!
