You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Now with 3x more gears...

[fotze2]

I went to some massive lobster boil thing at the westin during stampede once. I think it was Weatherford. Everyone got their own lobster and they were massive which people seem to like but apparently massive equals senior citizen in the lobster world. The claws had steak sized meat pieces.

Absolutely disgusting. It tasted as if it was homeless guys butthole that had tuna stuffed in it for the week prior. Can not touch lobster now. My eyes water thinking of it. I went and puked after that unfortunate swallow.

I'm allergic to shellfish so go #### yourselves.

When someone says they like crab or lobster they really mean they like garlic butter.

Sushi is ####ing delicious you uncultured swine!

Lots of hot takes here so let me add one - the correct response to someone not liking a particular food is to just feel bad for them. They can't enjoy something that, if they were wired differently, would bring them happiness. The fewer things on that list, the better your life is.

I pity all of you.

I love most sushi, but eating it can be risky.

Sushi is artistic too - I can’t think of another cuisine that is so visually creative.

It true, as a reformed picky eater, it really is the worst to have food aversions.

Well don’t eat sushi from a gas station, unless you’re in Japan.

It's always so depressing to come home after a long trip to Japan and trying to eat sushi here. Totally and utter garbage in North America in comparison.

Convenience store food is pretty good there in general. They are so adamant about freshness that they clear out the food before super tight best before dates that last maybe a day. They even have the freshness dates down to the hour.

I mean Bears look very satisfied when chomping down on raw fish. Animals eat raw fish and meat because they don't have the means to cook it. Humans kind of have evolved but if you think eating like an animal makes a person cultured then all the power to you.

Sushi is wonderful, as is Beef Tartar.

Who gives a #### about culture I just like eating yummy foods

I bought 50% off sushi from our local Co-Op once.


only once.

[Monahammer]

We need some sort of tongue in cheek emoji. Obviously I don't tie enjoyment of raw fish to some sort of high cultural ethos.

But, I think restricting yourselves on food intake because of being squeamish is difficult.

One of the most delicious things I have ever eaten was a whole korean aged crab. That was hard as hell to put in my mouth but once I did I was eating as many as I could get.

Eating sushi is definitely the same as eating a fish bones and all you pulled from the river. Totally normal take on sushi.

Tartare is a great example. Really good tartare comes with a raw quail egg on top- that was actually the hardest thing for me to get around but again once I started eating it there is no going back lol.

[PepsiFree]

Tartare and oysters are the two dishes I’ll pretty much get 100% of the time if I trust the restaurant (and 0% of the time if I don’t).

So great.

I watched Nature last night about Jaguars eating sea turtles on a beach in Costa Rica.

How are carnivores able to eat so much raw meat and not get sick?

Why Carnivores Can Eat Raw Meat Safely

Adaptations of Carnivores

Carnivores have evolved specific adaptations that allow them to consume raw meat without becoming ill. Key factors include:

Highly Acidic Stomach: Their stomachs produce strong acids that help break down meat and kill harmful bacteria.

Immediate Consumption: Carnivores often eat their prey immediately after hunting, reducing the risk of bacterial growth.

Targeting Safe Parts: They typically consume the less risky parts of the animal, such as muscle tissue, which is less likely to harbor pathogens compared to organs.
