How much rapeseed is non-canola? Did ppl create canola just so that they could stop saying "coat ingredients in rapeseed oil"?

rapeseed tends to be bitter and canola was bred to be less bitter.
― L'ennui, cette maladie de tous les (Michael White), Thursday, 15 March 2012 15:26 (twelve years ago) link
I guess it would be bitter.

This also sounded a bit ominous.
Early Saturday morning, the ABC show sent a driver up from Fargo. I was driven down there to answer questions.

She went down to the river with her hammer named Margo, to see about the man called Kevin Hoffman.

Given our general food discussion here earlier: friend/music writer Simon Price just sent along a photo of this from a Tesco's -- UK food is truly a different world:

that's actually a kind of sausage

sausage pudding iirc

BTW along the same lines, "breakfast sausage" is not what you think it is in the UK, and I wouldn't recommend asking for it

what scott said a little upthread. i'm not judging people for eating badly--i eat badly all the time. in fact if anything it's empathy because i have both weight issues and a tendency to eat very fatty foods if i don't watch myself. so when i see very morbidly obese people going back to a shoney's food bar three, four times and piling up mashed potatoes, corned beef, fried chicken, etc. i sort of shudder both for their own health and my own, potentially.

v curious as to what you were expecting and what you got.
― ledge, Thursday, 15 March 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
I guess as someone who struggled with weight and has watched family members do the same, I just know the kind of cycle of rationalization that needs to be broken to really change one's eating habits, which, admittedly, is very difficult when you have places like the Olive Garden basically packing calorie trojan horses into all of your food. So I bristle a little at the suggestion that maybe the obese guy who is eating a 3000 calorie meal is just enjoying his occasional indulgence in an otherwise healthy diet.
― the prurient pinterest (Hurting 2), Thursday, 15 March 2012 16:42 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i mean it's not the most dependable inference really.

^ this. the weirdest and most depressing thing about olive garden/red lobster food is how bad it is. i mean, it's "good" in that it's salty as hell, drowning in oil cheese and butter, made of generally tasty things, and chemically engineered to hit some perfect crowd-pleasing greasy/salty sweet spot, but beyond that, it's borderline awful.
