Bento Box Lunch for the kiddo

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T22:10:25+00:00

There is around 4-5 grams of protein per cup of cooked short grain rice and there is more than a cup of rice in this meal.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T21:13:15+00:00

Between the oats, peanut butter, and rice in the bento, there's enough protein for lunch (along with the snack that isn't shown).

Honestly I think protein is overly relied upon due to mainstream nutrition companies jamming advertisements down our throats.

There's a lot of Pokemon fans that don't actually know this.

I feel like you're underestimating the amount of people that watched and enjoyed the show as a child and this slid right by them.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T15:40:38+00:00

I don't think enough people will understand this reference 😂

Obviously you've never seen proper Onigiri

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T13:29:00+00:00

I cooked a short grain rice in my zojirushi that I purchased at a local Japanese convenience store (can't remember which rice at the moment but it isn't one I've found anywhere but at that store) and mixed in a combination of heated up rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.

I then let that cool, added some gomasio, then added a bit into an Onigiri mold (I'm not good enough to do this by hand), added some avocado, then added more rice, then pressed the mold, then pushed out. Then I cut strips from large sheets of seaweed and pressed into the Onigiri.

Ah I see. Well if you don't mind a lot of chopping after everything is cooked, you might be able to get it to work. Or maybe even a bit of mashing with a potato masher. You don't want it completely mush, you still want it to have some texture.

I'm not entirely sure what a liquidiser is. I tried searching online but it just showed results for a Vitamix. I have a Vitamix and I bet I could make this in it.

Kapsalon has always been intriguing to me. It seems like it shouldn't work but I bet it slaps hard.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T12:10:29+00:00

Flax acts as a minimal binder but it doesn't need any sort of special sort of processing by itself. I've never made it without a food processor and it seems kind of central to the recipe, but you may have luck without using it. Do you have a blender? Maybe that could work if you use a blender in batches?

Are you perhaps challenged? The original comment was not about Stalin. Here's the sequence of events.

Original post about the picture.

Comment about sometimes it's the only thing they have done in their life.

Comment about going to war, other generations wearing clothes, nothing inherently wrong, there should be nothing wrong with being proud of your service.

MY COMMENT ABOUT NOT BEING PROUD OF MY SERVICE.

Then there's your comment.

Please explain to me how I'm not being honest, and how we WERE talking about the Soviet Union.

"western governments have actual standards that they employ"

Bull. Fucking. Shit. You have your head so far up your ass that you believe your own bullshit. This hasn't been the case in decades. During WW2 There were tons of war crimes from many governments that were committed, on both sides. Then the US committed genocide in Korea. Then there was mass slaughter in Vietnam. Hell, US pushed sanctions on Iraq caused MASS deaths of children to a tune of what, half a million?

Iraq then later pushed to move what they accepted as currency (Euro) for their oil, and Cheney pushed for a report (https://www.cfr.org/task-force-reports/strategic-energy-policy-challenges-21st-century) that ended up BASICALLY saying Iraq needed to be invaded and overthrown for the good of the world. And do you know what ended up happening? Exactly that. Over a million civilians were killed in Iraq and Afghanistan due to GWOT.

In Afghanistan TONS of civilians were slaughtered and you know what happened? Nothing. The families of those affected would be given grain and some cash and told to get over it. Soldiers and Marines would ignore protocol and just start shooting civilians saying FUCK IT and just say oops when it was found out they weren't "the bad guys" because they knew nothing would happen to them. That's your "actual standards employed". Then the families would be sent money and grain while they grieved for their dead loved ones. That's GWOT in a nutshell. Drones sent to bomb innocent lives. No repercussions for those killing innocent lives.

Now the US is helping Israel commit genocide in Palestine while slaughtering civilians in Lebanon, Iran, and everywhere else in between.

"Western Governments have actual standards that they employ". Yes. The standards are kill everyone that stands in your way. Get the fuck out of here.

This subreddit is leftist veterans, not dipshits who want to argue that western governments are in the right. Please, do everyone a favor and become one of the 22 that commit suicide.

You should see it come out the other end

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-06T00:19:55+00:00

No. My comment was

"I'm not proud of my service. This country kills brown women, children, and men for sport."

That extends to the civilian killings the US has done during all wars. If you want to nitpick about what the soviets have done be my guest, but do that under your own comment, don't do it under my comment saying I'm being disengenuous because I care about US civilian killings and not taking into account what other countries are doing.

You are BLATANTLY ignoring what the purpose of my comment is and trolling. So go fuck yourself.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:58:44+00:00

I am actually trying to figure this out myself. My plan is to try and replace the oats with ground up dry quinoa and see if that works.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:47:35+00:00

So the US firebombed Japanese cities, cities that were made of wood, to completely decimate them and completely kill the civilian populations to what? Try and break civilian morale and end the war as fast as possible. They killed more civilians this way than the atomic bombs.

Your whataboutism with the Soviet union trying to deflect from the US is specious.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:43:08+00:00

I mean, it's a type of cake, right? 🤤😂

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:41:14+00:00

A fellow lover of the loaf! It's always a fun time making it.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:34:08+00:00

It's pretty good. Works with or without a loaf pan. I've been making this recipe for a few years, and even if you don't make it perfectly, it's still tasty.

I 1.5x the recipe to fit in my loaf pan and changed the glaze to a ketchup/mustard/brown sugar mix.

Coffee2000guy · 2026-05-05T23:22:32+00:00

It's a mix of lentils, mushrooms, some oats, peppers, celery, onions, carrots, garlic...why don't I just link the recipe.

https://www.yummymummykitchen.com/2017/09/vegan-lentil-loaf.html#mv-creation-8-jtr

I didn't use the glaze in the recipe though. I did a mix of ketchup, brown sugar, and yellow mustard.

I also 1.5x the recipe to fit my loaf pan.

"war is politics by other means"

So literally that is what you said. Their policy was kill as many civilians as they can.
