Eating algae is not a compromise or a burden, it's a fabulous luxury we should all experience.
- maxbond 4y agoA note, the dried stuff is a different experience, it doesn't have that awesome butteriness.
- paulcole 4y agoThis is so offensive to chocolate cake that it makes me doubt you’ve ever had chocolate cake.
- maxbond 4y agoI was also surprised the first time! I've got nothing to sell here, that's just my experience. I've had delicious rich chocolate cake and delicious rich spirulina, on a spirulina farm, that I had harvested earlier in the day. I spent several years studying microalgae & running bioreactors, until the pandemic threw a wrench into things.
- paulcole 4y agoSorry just can’t take that comparison seriously.
- maxbond 4y agoFeel free to interpret chocolate cake as a metanym for a rich, filling food, I didn't mean to say they were similar in any regard other than that. If cake is an unhelpful comparison for you for whatever reason, disregard it, it's not important.
- paulcole 4y agoNah it’s like when an American goes to Europe and then comes back and won’t shut up about how American bread is so sweet. I just can’t take it seriously. No offense to you personally.
