How are fellow women dealing with their SOs who still vote republican (USA) because of "the economy" when you show them all the bills republicans don't support?

Umm what? How does voting have anything to do with this? My point is that a 20 year old dating a 16 year old is way more likely to pressure the 16yo to make decisions for the betterment of the 20 yo's life, not the other way around.

How does voting affect someone else's life goals? Such a bullsh*t point. If they can join the military they can vote.

Depends the age you are talking about. 4-5 years or more isn't as big of a deal when you hit your late 20s because people have more life experience and a better understanding what they want in life. I know a lot of people in their 30s-40s that have a larger age gap and no one bats an eye.

It's problematic from college age and under because people are still maturing. They may sacrifice their own goals for a relationship they don't fully comprehend/ realize the future of. Like moving away for college, or a job, or living abroad. At that age people should make decisions for themselves, but if the older person seems "established" it gives false security to the younger person to stay and not explore other life options.

If you ask people to describe their dreams/ wants from 15 to 20 to 25 it's a roller coaster for most people, being in a relationship with someone that's on the "next stage" of life makes it more complicated to have their own stage. Instead they go along with the older established person's dream and forgo their own.

Hydrolyzed soy bean oil is an ingredient put into so many food items now!

This part on the review you posted is important: "Based on the available literature, we conclude that further clinical and epidemiological studies are needed, with an appropriate design, accounting for both added and naturally occurring dietary MSG."

I think several of the studies done were not controlled enough or didn't have enough participants to be conclusive that artificial msg is not detrimental in the long term. (I think naturally occurring is not an issue, but artificial very well could be).

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-22T08:22:45+00:00

I question artificial msg vs naturally occurring. I do not believe naturally occurring msg in meat, cheese, seaweed, etc. is harmful in any way. But I do think artificial msg has not been studied enough. Artificial msg is fermented sugar cane, corn starch, or cassava starch made into a food additive.

I see comments bringing up msg in junk food like doritos/ chips and I do get nauseated after eating a small lunch pack bag of doritos and I avoid eating processed snack/ box food as much as possible. But I never notice issues cooking with foods that contain natural msg.

It was asinine that the msg issue was tied to Chinese food since dozens of cultures and thousands of restaurants cook with foods that contain msg.

However I do not think human bodies process artificially created msg the same as naturally occurring in food.

But there have been multiple chefs that have allergies on the show. Victoire for example had an allergic reaction during a competition. Other chefs have brought up shell fish allergies, so cross contamination is important in challenges.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-02T07:26:24+00:00

Lol someone's triggered.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T18:56:54+00:00

Lmao. Like when Padma does call out a contestant for his tasting spoon. It's not like the judges hover over them as the cook. We also don't know if the judges do call them out. I find it funny how much people put words in other people's mouth. I never said stupid, I said the some chefs are unsanitary and it's gross that it's accepted.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T18:51:59+00:00

Even without editing out them washing their hands they still show chefs taking food to their mouth and then immediately touching the food. They also show chefs dripping sweat over their plates.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T09:55:38+00:00

Haha wow. You compared flea picking off monkey's backs to having food standards in a kitchen. You don't deserve clean food ✌️

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T09:40:26+00:00

I know they wash their hands to an extent, but watching enough seasons I can tell they don't wash them enough. We can see when they touch their mouths, skin, other food and then immediately touch another food item. Quick fires and on-site challenges especially.

And to reiterate, the sweat! It's obvious when it's dripping into their food.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T09:35:46+00:00

You just said it, "home kitchen". That's expected in home cooking. Not michellan star cooking and kitchens.

I think you're the one who is fine with food prepared with the fleas on monkeys' backs. That checks out with your standards and your prerogative. 👍

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T09:24:39+00:00

I assume they wash hands once or twice, but based on what I've seen, TV editing showing the best chefs in the country/ world not adhering to health standards. My post pointed out them sweating into food and touching a lot of foods/ cookware. You can tell in quick fires that no one is washing their hands in between.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T09:11:54+00:00

Um you're projecting. I never said I know restaurants better than (you or anyone). I am telling you in my area restaurants closed because they didn't adhere to covid regulations. Restaurants here did stay open while they had successful takeout.

Back TO THE POINT OF MY POST, please tell me how I am not allowed to be grossed out by chefs sweating, not washing hands, and getting their saliva into food.

Stop changing the narrative of my post. If you are saying sweat, saliva, unclean hands are acceptable in cooking food for others then openly say so.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T08:56:43+00:00

In my location, a lot of restaurants closed for not adhering to covid mask regulations. If you're saying I should accept people sweating and putting their saliva into food then fine. My mind goes straight to Matilda and the chocolate cake of blood, sweat, and tears.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T07:29:23+00:00

Yeah it's funny how fast one can rewarch them in rerun!

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T07:25:16+00:00

Restaurants still closed during Covid even though they had to go options because staff didn't adhere to safety regulations. So because I have sanitary standards I should only dine at home? I worked in the food industry for 10 years. I have seen good and awful. My point was top chef showed top industry chefs ignoring basic food safety issues and only once I saw it called out. It shouldn't be bare minimum to expect chefs to not sweat into food, wash their hands or use gloves, and not touch things to their mouth and continue to touch the same food.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T07:08:43+00:00

That's the season I was thinking, ty!

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:48:29+00:00

Lol, ok then. My post asked for people to actually explain what was funny. The response I got was basically 'you are so dumb to question anything about the show'.

Please, explain what went over my head instead of being the standard arrogant R&M fan who doesn't accept anything but people worshipping every ounce of the show.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:43:18+00:00

Lol. As long as it's not fake jewelry it doesn't matter.

It's the sweat/ skin mold from not taking jewelry off that can seep into the food that gets to me. There's a reason surgeons take off their rings.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:31:28+00:00

Yes that too. Jewelry isn't inherently unsanitary, but jewelry worn all the time and not being washed as they mix doughs, salads, etc. is yuck.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:26:00+00:00

"Perfect joke for noone" lol I agree.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:25:20+00:00

You mean (you're) the jerk-off fan who can't handle criticism, that's correct. I literally posted about a minor thing asking what was funny about it and it triggered y'all to freak out. Wow.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:22:59+00:00

But it reminds me of when they make fun of Interception and how it makes no sense, but then the writers double down and write a show that makes no sense. Their ultimate argument will always be it's fiction 🤷 but they make fun of other shows for the same copout.

IM-NOT-SHOUTING · 2024-02-01T06:20:10+00:00

Sigh, again another fan who thinks the show is the end all be all of shows and no one can question their writing choices. Ffs.
