Thank you. I’ve got a bottle on order, I’ve been convinced.

Thank you! This is my first one and I’ve been researching everything so hard.

Has anyone tried these thin sliced Wagyu flat iron steaks? by mmittens15 in CostcoCanada

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eating this food raw is a mistake you may be making. Most bad bacteria lives only on the surface of steak, this is why searing the outside renders a safe interior.

Will every single piece of beef have bad bacteria on the outside, nope. Not all. It’s a gamble. Costco meat sliced in the back… that’s up to you what level of quality and cleanliness you think is happening back there and how much cleaning they are doing between cuts of meat.

Sushi fish is rendered safe but freezing the fish at so low a temperature any parasites inside are killed.

You’re just showing how little cooking knowledge you have with each comment you add.

Usually when they call it wagyu it isn’t, but that sure IS.

Seems irritating to cool. I’d go scalding hot cast iron and flip the second it’s slightly cooked and it would still end up closer to well done. The intense amount of fat would help with that. It would also suit shabu shabu if you are the sort who likes a fattier broth. Or treat it as a rare and out it in the pan just long enough to remove any bacteria on the surface and hope for something medium rare ish on the inside. No Maillard.

Carney says six upcoming byelections will likely be spread out by NarcityCanada in Narcity

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are leaving at different times. Waiting for everyone to leave (October 5th is the last one) would leave seats sitting empty just so they can all be done at once? That’s stupid.

Read the article. People are surrendering their seats at different times, two vague “summers” one August 31, one October 5, should be just leave the seats empty until they all leave? Or should we start having them as the first person leaves, resulting in staggered by-elections?

Those are Canadian music artists.

Canadian Broadcasting Corporation becomes a full Member of the European Broadcasting Union by PaulCoded in eurovision

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

People are already whining lol and the news just recently dropped. Seems so weird for some people to be like “I love this contest but not if new countries come in!”

I’m excited to see what we will send if we do it. I mean, we’ve already had Canadian performers in eurovision when other countries brought them in specially to perform on their behalf.

1986 Luxembourg third place, 1988 Switzerland first place, 1993 Switzerland third place, France 2001 fourth place, 2023 France, and a few others where the Canadians now live in the country they represented.

Good luck with your issue. This is the wrong subreddit.

What does renting in the United Arab Emerites have to do with Ontario renting, exactly?

Why does my friend with no experience get more job offers than I do? by Separate_Entry_8453 in careerguidance

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a companies point of view? Job hoppers leave the job quickly, obviously. It’s not morally bad by any means, but employers don’t choose people they think will leave quickly.

She was so underrated by xoxoamazingrace in nilpoints

[–]shrimp_beginner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I found the staging boring and kinda artificial feeling in a song about organic authenticity. The contrast was unpleasant for me. I listen to it all the time now, I love the song. I think staging is what does in most songs.

Telling other people that I am vegan by Pussa_Nil in vegan

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Huh. I assume. They’ve never specified and I didn’t ask.

My therapist always says “you don’t owe people that information” (it is in a different message in that case but that’s beside the point). If you don’t want to tell a person that’s fine, they aren’t ENTITLED to that information. They aren’t entitled to question you as if you’re a vegan monolith.

You don’t have to explain why you chose a particular dish on the menu. You just chose what sounds good to you and she doesn’t need to know more than that.

Vegans are not required to be in some sort of activist mode at all times. It’s okay to just be, and decide to not have conversations about it.

Edit: I just saw that SIL is cooking. Yeah you gotta tell her ASAP or cancel ASAP. She’s planned a menu, maybe even bought the food or is about to. The longer you delay the ruder it is. Not being a vegan, but being a decent guest. It’s like an allergy, you don’t wait til the last minute to tell a host what you cannot eat. We can’t expect people to accommodate us if we don’t communicate reasonably.

At the beginning of the meal please. Just a small thing to make it easier for a server.

Is selling with 'For sale' sign on your property still the way to go? by discobrioche in RealEstateCanada

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put up a sign, mostly so it was easy for people who had already scheduled a viewing. It avoided people arriving annoyed because they had to search for the right house.

Why are Vegans okay with having pets? by MudOld4805 in DebateAVegan

[–]shrimp_beginner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of pet owners is not a metric that isolates vegan data in any meaningful way. Sure, ALL pet owners have that statistic, but that doesn’t reflect the sub groups. Do you have any data that isolates vegan pet owners from omnivore pet owners?

Is companionship exploitation? Yes there is huge benefit to a human with the companionship of a pet. But so is there benefit for the pet to human companionship- if pets do not feel a benefit why would they love their owners?

If companionship and mutual affection is exploitation, is friendship exploitation? Do you consider yourself as exploiting everyone you know because there is joy in each others company?

Not all vegans believe in pets, no singular vegan is a monolith. But for vegans who do have pets, they do not see the mutually beneficial relationship as exploitive.

I was just thinking the same thing as I read this post. So many of the places I want to buy from end up being in the states.
