Tofu Is The Fourth Most-Hated Food In The US, Survey Finds in c/veganfood@lemmy.vg
[–] QuiteQuickQum@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I agree with you, but this isn't surprising. I'm not one whose usual go to is "blame the media," but these four foods do have strong media narratives.

  • tofu - In media it is primairily played for laughs associated with vegetarians and vegans. If prepared poorly, it can be really bland and an unusual texture. Season it right and it is a delight.
  • sardines - In media it is primairily played as a hard poverty indicator. Bones could be considered an odd texture and an off-putting concept. Great cheap high protein food enjoyed on crackers, out of the tin, or in a salad. Often tinned with fun flavors.
  • anchovies - In media it is primairily played as a yucky pizza topping for laughs. Bones could be considered an odd texture and an off-putting concept. The saltiness/fishieness IS extreme, so an unexpected anchovie can be shocking. Even if most can't handle full anchovies, ceasar salad dressing is broadly popular.
  • liver - In media it is primairily played as a poverty indicator. Middle class stopped raising and using the whole animal, so organs get relegated to low income food status. I hazard to say liver is the least media influenced opinion. Can be chalky, but a nice fried liver or mixed into stuffing or gravy is very homey.

Here's a great episode about PCOS and how it being overlooked impacts everyone. The podcast is "This Podcast Will Kill You," and it's a real treat.

Are you listening to The Adventure Zone, per chance?

I recently learned the term "Vibe Coding" and I can't believe that it doesn't mean to be doing spaghetti coding but you don't care because you're just vibing with it. in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

It's from Tennessee, thank you very much. Bourbon isn't a regionally classified spirit, but Tennessee Whisky is!

Does this look AI generated or assisted to anyone else? The exact shot for shot scenes and twitchy polygons are my reasoning. I don't remember the shader changing during animations, either.
