So here is how I really feel about meat substitutes.

First, they are generally highly processed, which is something I tend to avoid. Fresh food is always best.

Second, a person adopts the vegan lifestyle to avoid meat. Why buy a highly processed vegetable based meat substitute. Sounds contradictory.

Third.

We are evolved to be omnivores. A balanced diet, which includes animal protein.

We can only hope.

The guy is an idiot, and deserves to get taken out of the gene pool.

Oh, and someone needs to take away his man card.

And kick him in the nards.

Tennessee.

The Volunteer state.

And they distill it in a dry county! The only thing they can offer visitors at the distillery is a glass of lemonade!

Probably not a nice thing to think but I agree fully, since he is like the sunflower tramplers referenced in another thread about idiots here on the forums.

"Brute forcing" the counter is definitely not in the spirit of the giveaway, and while it hadn't been an issue in prior months, I may add a cap on spikes in activity if we continue receiving such feedback.

Thanks in advance!

I noticed this imitation bacon is made from soybeans.

Here is how I like my soybeans:

Usually as an appetizer before having sushi. lightly steamed in the husk, sprinkled with salt. They go well with sake.

They also make a great snack.

I just keep coming back to this. Don't ask me why.

But it is very hot when near boiling, and when thrown onto something it may not be so pleasant. The heavy, oily viscous properties it has would enable it to cling wherever it falls.

Splatters of hot bacon grease are something that one never forgets.

Best to wear clothes when frying bacon. I won't tell you how I know this.

It's a museum near/in the center of the Michelin factories at Clermont-Ferrand.

Some neat stuff and a cool video about how modern tires are made.

Plus I learned more about the "Michelines" ... small trains on tires and rail combos ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micheline_(railcar)

I will post some images later so as to run-up the post counter

Don't leave out steam burns, the most painful IMO.

There's a lot of latent heat in steam and a lot of energy is released when steam at 100C is transformed to water at 100C.

I believe that it's a globe. I can see the curvature of the earth when I look out of my office window. Not now, because it's dark. Just during the day time and when the horizon isn't obscured by clouds.
