Or a kerb, for that matter (wtf is that spelling?!)

Oh this is so surprising. I typically use corn starch to thicken sauces. Have you compared xanthan gum head-to-head with corn starch?

I was never a huge baker before the diagnosis, so now we mostly stick to quick breads and cookies when it comes to baking. Those types of recipes usually suffice with either baking soda or baking powder if using an all-purpose GF flour like the King Arthur mix. The best tasting GF flour I've tried though is Bob's Red Mill, and they do specifically recommend (and sell separately) xanthan gum for various types of baked goods. Even when I follow their (Bob's Red Mill) recommendations though, the dough is still typically a bit runny.

Celiac here. I get so annoyed when companies try to combine all dietary restrictions into a single food item, e.g., the GF cookie is also the vegan/ dairy free cookie. It's hard enough to make something edible with a single restriction, but when they try to lump all the restrictions into a single product it is almost always disgusting.

I was trying to present his concerns as being relatable; I don't think he's unreasonable.

Marriage is pretty good. He's a good partner, a very moral person, and a great, involved father.

I think I'd rather die in a concentration camp than break up my family... At least, if I knew my kids would be okay. I don't think it's likely I'd be able to take my kids overseas with me if I left him over it anyway.

I am trying to talk my husband into moving. I can probably land the job in the EU I am interviewing for, but he does NOT want to move. He doesn't want to leave the small amount of community we have. He doesn't want to overreact in fear to this administration. He doesn't want to give up our home and our lifestyle (the EU pays substantially less across many industries). Our parents are getting older and sicker; it's hard to move abroad when you know there's probably only a handful of years left with them, especially when you have children.

I think the Internet discounts how difficult it can be to uproot.

I am kind of disappointing this is actually from 2023 though! It needs to cum again.

The reason behind priests not being allowed to marry originally had nothing to do with their faith though. It's because Catholic priests were bequeathing church assets to their children when they died. The church just put a thin veneer of dogma on top of the reasoning when they used the dictate of no marriage to stop the theft.

Does "bugs" have a scientific meaning? I was assuming it was a layman's term that I could abuse.

Not sure what your definition of people is, but Mexicans, Ugandan, and Koreans all eat grasshoppers (and probably others). I know crickets are eaten in Southeast Asia.

Ants seem too tiny to try to eat, but a Google search reveals they are eaten in South America and Southeast Asia.
