my controversial opinion is that icecream & cake is only acceltable if the cake is warm/hotif it’s just like, room temperature or cold birthday cake or whatever then NO ICECREAMyes i am sally from when harry met sally
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 12 October 2018 17:56 (five years ago) link
*acceptable
I think my preference here depends on the type and flavor of cake
― for i, sock in enumerate (Sufjan Grafton), Friday, 12 October 2018 18:11 (five years ago) link
for example, warm coconut cake sounds undesirable somehow
― for i, sock in enumerate (Sufjan Grafton), Friday, 12 October 2018 18:13 (five years ago) link
are we talking freshly baked warm cake or microwaved cake?
― for i, sock in enumerate (Sufjan Grafton), Friday, 12 October 2018 18:14 (five years ago) link
heat sources are irrelevantcake that you like, whatever flavor, is only good with icecream if the cake is warmif the cake is cold, throw that scoop of icecream in the trash
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 12 October 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link
that is my stance
throw that scoop of icecream in the trash
rude

does the rule apply to pie?
― for i, sock in enumerate (Sufjan Grafton), Friday, 12 October 2018 18:26 (five years ago) link
Pie is far superior to cake.

Can i throw it in my mouth then eat the warm pie

i feel the same way about pie

but cold cake & icecream is specifically a nonstarter for me

if you’ve got a belly for cake AND ice cream then your slice of cake is too small
― droit au butt (Euler), Friday, 12 October 2018 19:17 (five years ago) link
I have never been served cold cake with ice cream, but that sounds sort of wrong. I guess you don't like ice cream with jelly.
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Friday, 12 October 2018 19:35 (five years ago) link
not really unless i can mix them together & make icecream & jelly mush
― Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 12 October 2018 19:38 (five years ago) link
…ice cream with jelly?

OMG I love cake sooo much, I could literally eat all the cake in the world. I'm basically the cake monster. get in my belly!

Jelly as in jello. Kids party favourite in the UK, no adult would be seen eating it

I had no idea that was even a thing!

I mean, it's basically a kids version of a trifle I guess. But trifle is the worst pudding anyway, so it has no sympathy from me.

― F# A# (∞), Friday, 12 October 2018 20:20 (five years ago) link
There is nothing fancy about a trifle. Just horrible wrong nasty ladyfinger biscuits soaked in sherry, instant custard, tinned peaches and spray cream with sprinkles.

So much to catch up on.
On Ramen, dipping is definitely the way to go so tsukumen for me. Although faced with the choice between ramen and good soba, then soba every time. Good soba has to be high buckwheat content or what’s the point.
I don’t really eat rice at hope due to low carb dieting but, in China or Japan I eat much more and love it. On my most recent trip I ate more brown rice and rice and beans than I have before. Japanese rice and beans or the Taiwanese/Japanese rice with beans and grains like sorghum is wonderful. Ochazuke and bubazuke ftw, btw.
I will defend trifle to the death but it has to be well made, lots of booze, fruit and ridiculously rich custard. If you are going to chill custard then it needs to be slightly over sweet when warm. Jam in the trifle sponges. Jelly does not belong in Trifle, why would you spoil something so wonderful with flavourless plastic.
On the cake question - of course no ice cream with cake or cream for that matter, cake ought to stand up on its own. Custard, ice cream and cream belong with pies and tarts.

i've been snacking on some amazing sassafras-flavored gelatin gummies this week but i think in the future we're going to try and move to the vegan/kosher/halal gelatin for making such things
― dub pilates (rushomancy), Friday, 12 October 2018 23:51 (five years ago) link
I feel like the should start offering pot gummies on flights.
I got a bento box yesterday for lunch. I ate half of the rice. I was very proud.

is it a controversial opinion that prime rib is terrible? it's my opinion.
― droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 18 October 2018 14:41 (five years ago) link
I kind of think 80% of what people think is well cooked meat is terrible.
― Yerac, Thursday, 18 October 2018 14:43 (five years ago) link
yeah I think I've had really good steak like one time ever, and it's not for lack of trying (or spending). & it was at a professor's house, not even at a resto! ok maybe once at a resto in Marseille.
I like meat "in" things but not really as a main dish.
― droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 18 October 2018 14:51 (five years ago) link
I enjoy prime rib on rare occassions but it's too expensive
― the dutiful and the banned (rip van wanko), Thursday, 18 October 2018 14:54 (five years ago) link
Overcooked meat is as bad as past al dente pasta for me. I think I like most of my food on the way undercooked to raw side.
― Yerac, Thursday, 18 October 2018 14:56 (five years ago) link
Or unless it's brisket or something like that that needs to be dripping off the bone. I need to go find some brisket now.
