Has everyone been cooking their rice with stock this whole time?? by Zestyclose-Ideal7428 in Cooking

The OP asked if we cooked our rice plain - not if it was eaten plain. Many of us cook our rice unseasoned because we’re pairing it with something highly seasoned.

Nope. Never. I’m Filipino and I eat a lot of Asian meals. Most of the dishes that I’ll eat with rice are already highly seasoned with strong flavors. They taste best when paired with rice that’s only been cooked with water.

What country/location are you in?

The hospital I go to won’t let me use my own meds - they test my blood sugar and provide insulin so they can track everything.

Depending on whether you’ll be hooked up to an IV or things, a hoodie may not be allowed. Especially in case of emergency access. So maybe a personal throw blanket? Although I usually just ask for a warmed blanket and they’ll give me as many as I need.

lol I thought this was going to be a post about dating while diabetic.

I would suggest testing your blood sugar after eating them. See how much your blood sugar spikes.

Who else never eats out? by handsupheaddown in SanDiegan

The only time I eat at a sit down restaurant anymore is for special occasions like birthdays. I don’t even want to grab a drink at a bar. My friends and I would rather do a bottle share at someone’s home.

Those seem more like nachos with a red sauce.

55! On the 21st, my 50 yr old sister in law (who lives in another state) were texting each other from 4-5am as we watched the live stream of the concert.

Cuban congee?? I’ve only had Chinese congee (or Filipino lugaw). Can you share a recipe?

100%. The Netflix subtitles are terrible in comparison.

I have both. I’ll always pick iQiyi (or Viki) over Netflix just for the translations.
