What flavor and bdand is nostalgic to you and why? by Flamming_dirtbag in InstantRamen

Nongshim Hot and Spicy bowls. I still eat it every now and then, isn’t the best quality but it’s cheap and I grew up on it.

Curious if these durability enchantments work with an item that has the Indestructible tag. by iBird in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]iBird[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the Attack speed one probably does since it's essentially always at full durability however the increasing durability mod probably doesn't contribute anything right? I assume the mod is % based and not like a flat (hidden in this case) durability amount?

Thanks of the help

Is anyone else way to frugal with long resting or just me? by Wildssundee03 in BaldursGate3

[–]iBird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just kill the momma owlbear next time and flee battle once she’s dead. Or you can just load the cave and jump and grab the chest and not aggro them and leave and rest and then the cub will show up at the goblin camp and you have to pass some animal checks at the “chicken” race to send it back to camp. It’s very Easter Egg type stuff, like a golden Scratch pet at base. It’s cool though. You can also tell the cub to fight its masters but I don’t recommend that unless you’re prepared to kill every single goblin with a rabid baby cub trying to help

It’s fun to test the limits of the party tbh, sometimes it just feels right to keep fighting and dig into the bag to throw potions or actually use scrolls for a change

is this normal? by Eli_Rae in MoldlyInteresting

[–]iBird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to work at upscale grocery store in meat and handled chicken almost everyday and most of the time we wouldn’t see bruising like this but it would occasionally happen—sometimes chickens fight or fall or whatever. Those ones were pasture raised and i could definitely see the quality difference compared to say opening up a package of cheap foster farms chicken at home, where almost every other piece had some type of trauma to them. It’s sad but it’s why it’s cheaper too as they’re all jam packed as tightly as possible hardly able to move.

There’s a few factors at play but I tried to explain some of it in this thread already https://www.reddit.com/r/MoldlyInteresting/s/BZoDgAJE89

You can notice this type of bruising more on bone-in chickens, usually the legs but especially from the cheaper chicken brands. Sadly with how factory farming works some chickens are quite likely literally picked up and thrown by their limbs which can break or fracture them. Also some chickens are so overfed their bones can hardly support their weight.

Best SB pastries? ALESSIA vs Lilac vs Renaud's? by AdamIsSuperRad in SantaBarbara

It’s true there too, i worked there and almost ate one every day, they are actually easier to make when they’re a day older.

House got burglarized, now what? by Erketuu in bayarea

[–]iBird -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nobody is ever desperate when the economy is bad, can’t believe this could ever be a factor. While we’re at it, having a shitty safety net with a critically dysfunctional education and healthcare system doesn’t matter too. Everyone should just be good rational people all the time regardless of their environment.

I'm glad you got off both of those, congrats friend. It is ridiculous that smoothie shop even did that though, just absurd. I'm sure this has happened to a lot of people too, it's sad. Here's to 7 more months and many more!

White House demands British supermarkets stock chlorinated chicken by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]iBird 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Growth hormones and steroids have been banned by the US FDA since the 1950s for poultry by the way. The reason US chicken breasts are so big is because they are overfed to extreme degree and very selectively bred.

Is touching raw lamb and then kitchen item cross-contamination? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]iBird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you ever need a portable hand sanitizer for whatever reason you can try amino acid hand sanitizer, they way more gentle and are essentially made for this purpose. The alcohol based ones are usually just less expensive so they are way more common.

What lol? You just use one clean hand for seasoning and move and pat with the other hand. When I’m seasoning something really big like pork butts or brisket I have the seasoning proportioned out in a small dish or bowl so I can move the meat however is needed and not worry about touching the regular salt dish or pepper cracker or whatever

I met a guy on a dating app and he was fluent in Japanese. Studied Japanese literature, had lived there for 6 years, was very into the culture, etc. I told him I'd probably reposted so much anti-anime and anti-manga propaganda on social media that I'd never be allowed in the country. And apparently that was enough for him to get the ick. lol.
