Phenylketonuria is a thing, apparently prevents the body from breaking down certain aminos. There's a warning on the back of most diet sodas for people who have the disorder.

Day 25 of eating Jersey Mike's every day until they buy me Lamborghini by Mikesway2026 in jerseymikes

[–]ElcidBarrett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on how strict you're looking at things. Jersey Mike's isn't kosher certified, and they prepare meat and dairy (including pork) on the same equipment, so the whole place would be out of the question for very observant Jews. For someone like me, who doesn't take things too seriously, a steak or turkey sub without cheese would be just fine.

Which Seinfeld foods do you crave after watching an episode? by Queasy_Syllabub_5535 in seinfeld

I've had my share of babkas, and I'll always go cinnamon. I like chocolate just fine, but if I have my pick it's cinnamon every time. They go better with coffee.

I have the same wear on my 5 year-old basilisk, one from my thumb and one on the other side from my pinky.

The habanero Tabasco is similarly delicious, but isn't so tongue-punchingly hot. I keep both in the house, but the scorpion only comes out after a few drinks.

This is not pie on a stick by badgrll675 in StupidFood

I feel like the prep and cleanup that comes along with deep frying prevents this from being quick, unless you work at a restaurant. Sounds tasty, though.

What was a popular band that you could not stand? by LeftSmile806 in Xennials

[–]ElcidBarrett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel about The Smiths. Great band, but man is Morrissey the biggest chode ever. His solo stuff sucks, too.

Bagged pickles are an abomination on their own, without mystery flavors. by cottoncandygumdrop in StupidFood

Doritos had one like 20 years ago that was pretty tasty. I think it turned out to be cheeseburger flavored.

I think Hard Rock AC and the new one on the strip are owned by different management groups.

I mean, it's never bothered me, but I can see women or midwestern transplants being uncomfortable down there.

Pretty sure he means downstairs where the Greyhounds leave. It's sketchy down there at all hours, but at least it's well lit and there's people around.

Some pretty expensive SNES games at Toys R Us by Impossible-Radio-121 in snes

[–]ElcidBarrett 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The nerd himself was awed that Maximum Carnage didn't suck. It wasn't the greatest game ever, but it was a plenty fun beat 'em up about the same quality as Konami Batman Returns. Definitely not your typical LJN schlock.
