Those sauces are just different, though similarly named. The calories, sodium and fibre values are different, one contains cheese where the other doesn't. Sugar is not uncommon in commercial pasta sauce, even in Canada.

Did the breakfast come with pancakes or waffles? Maybe the sugar was intended for those but some missed. I don't doubt there are people who enjoy sugared sausages, but for a restaurant to sugar their sausages unasked is something I&#x2

Prosciutto e melone, brie en croute, fruit and cheese/cured meat in general, duck a l'orange, pad thai. Sweet + salty/savoury foods are definitely not uncommon throughout the world.

> Why would people put sugar on their fries?! FWIW, they're brined in a solution containing sugar, it's not like there's sugar sprinkled on them. Very little of it makes it into the final product and in my experience br

In addition to the downsides noted by other responses like electricity and maintenance costs, it's worth noting these industrial machines don't clean food residue nearly as well as domestic machines. There simply isn't enough

If budget is a pressing concern maybe don't get chicken breast? It's far from the most affordable source of protein.

I'd bet a typical westerner has never eaten wild mammal meat. I expect the statement in born from the misconception that "game" meat as found in restaurants and for sale is from wild animals, when it is actually farmed.

Comparing the glycemic index of pure lactose and maltose as proxies for dairy milk and oat milk is misleading. There are values for the whole products out there. The comparison still isn't favourable to oat milk, but implying it has a

Life expectancy being 25 doesn't mean nobody lives past 25. Estimates that low for early humans is skewed by huge infant mortality rates. IIRC living into the 40s or 50s was typical for an early human that survived to adulthood. 60s or

I think it's equally wonderful and terrifying that nature produced humans, capable of creating the screens we look at all day.

It isn't in general, and never was, is my point. Merely fashionable to think of it as so. My local McDonald's probably does 20k+ days all week too. What of it?

I think they were commenting on the fact that it's still fashionable to look down on American food as uncultured. Case in point, your post.

Well, you use a lot more than one bean to make a cup of coffee. Drip would be on the low end, but even so some oil/fat makes it into the cup. 2 calories worth of fat is only about 200mg.

For practical purposes. If you want to get pedantic it's probably something like 2-5 calories per serving depending on brewing method.

It's an English word. Maybe it doesn't jibe with your concept of spices, but you can hardly say native English speakers are using the word wrong.

Cinnamon, cardamon, cloves, nutmeg and star anise are undoubtedly spices. Didn't mean to suggest otherwise. However, a dish incorporating them isn't usually referred to as spicy in my experience. Unless it also contains chili pepp

I'd probably just call it flavorful. Might be described as "warm spiced" on a restaurant menu because of the first four spices, which are often included in blends called (among other names) warm spices. I might also call it
322.
by phonypc 6y ago
I don't think it's incorrect per se to uses spicy and hot interchangeably. It's just maybe not common to all dialects of English. Where I'm from nobody would refer to a dish flavored with your first list as spicy.
323.
by phonypc 6y ago
In my experience, "spicy" refers almost exclusively to chili pepper, with the sensation you get from black pepper, mustard or horseradish being edge cases. If something is flavored with other spices, it's "spiced."

These exist, called dual-layer LCD. IIRC mostly reserved for professional applications, with some consumer stuff on the horizon.

I don't think the analogy quite works anyway, but I think the "civilizations must be rivals" aspect is what was being referred to, not the "dark" part. The Dark Forest is the second book btw.

What? "How many cups in a pint?" is a perfectly normal question. Even if you use both measures you might not know the conversion factor. "How many grams in a kilogram?" is a strange question because the answer is self-ev

I did watch the first video in full; the other link, and three others in another post only address blood oxygen. I made no claims about CO2. I don't think wearing a mask will meaningfully affect the breathing of most people, but blood

Blood oxygen saturation is not informative in this context, and it's disconcerting to see medical professionals treat it like it is. You can hyperventilate until you pass out without your blood oxygen saturation changing.

Sugar appearing low on an informally written ingredient list like that doesn't indicate relative quantity. Looking at the nutrition info, that stuff appears to contain substantially more sugar by volume than pretty much any soft drink.
