Shark's liver

But I refused from eating sharks because their population should be increased.

Shark steaks!

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

Non-rotten shark is actually pretty good, you should try! I think you have some good desserts, to be fair.

I don't know about Bingo the game itself, but more Bingo shows with lip sync performances would definitely be a popular move here.

Eating Endangered animals? SaladBreak (see I didn't use Laura there) I am disappointed. xsnooty

Well ours didn't come with lip sync so it obviously backfired.

Honey, since you got a prime minister with an even worse hair than Donald Trump now, you are no longer allowed to throw shade at our bad decisions. xheart

Honey, Neither I or 99% of the electorate even chose him. He was chosen by 100,000 Conservative party members with an average of 57 and majority male. Your president was literally on our news last night denying the police brutality in your nation and the fact you're breaking international law by forcing Migrants out of the country and stopping them claiming Asylum, but no matter ours has a weird haircut. x Actually he is human trash and a total waste of time and energy.

Just had it with a finely chopped ragout

Just googled what Ragout was, and maybe next time I will. I actually had it with milk and sugar and it wasn't that bad, just weird.

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

I'm with Ashley on this smh... Eating sharks, girl you have Tuna, Salmon and all other fish to serve as a meal for you, leave the sharks alone. I mean like what's next swapping chicken with Kakapo? xnaughty

But the UK ministers' haircut really sucks though, just saying. Like what Kolinda did was really really bad, but as the Pakistanis would say: "If you're hair is not even fleek, then how the hell your gonna rule an amazing country?". I stand by that.

I hope the species I ate wasn't endangered...


She doesn't even deny it completely, she says "some violence is necessary". And explained their injuries are due to "difficult terrain". However, it's the government, not her. She doesn't have the powers.

[MENTION=15105]SaladBreak[/MENTION] Tuna is very iconic fish. Also if I have a daughter one day, I could call her 'Tuna' tbh. Such a pretty name.

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

Not a fond of milk + it's unhealthy (even dangerous if you have some allergy like me or asthma or sore throat/cold) so I exchanged it on smetana (not fat), kefir (YUM! Fermented lactosa-free milk which tastes much better), cheese, quark (I make a "yogurt" out of quark with bananas, cocoa powder, strawberries, ribes, apricots, raspberries etc).

After you boil grechka a little amount of hot water should still be there. And grechka grains should break up - that means it became really soft and ready. There's fat in milk which made grechka heavier to digest. I refused from white sugar, just take glucose & fructose naturally via ordinary food all of us eat daily.

Make sure it is dolphin friendly tuna! Caught by line and pole. It's a big thing here. Tuna caught by the big nets get dolphins caught in them and it drowns and kills the dolphins because they can't get up to breathe. Also the nets can sometimes get discarded and then whales get caught on them then.

It's dangerous to have it with milk? :eek: I'm going to sue my friend now for endangering my life because i have asthma. My friend just said it was the best way to eat it as it makes it sweeter and the grechka is super healthy. :lol: Also it's the only thing we ate that entire day (apart from when we were out in the evening and I got a slice of pizza).

Im kinda interested to try it how you suggest it actually, all of them extras are stuff I like a lot and enjoy. I did actually think at the time it might be nice to mix some fruit through it. If i'm ever in Ukraine again at some point (not impossible) I might try it like that and see if it is any better. I guess I could buy the grechka online or find something similar in special shops, the rest of the ingredients except Kefir is here ofc also. Btw Smetana is Sour Cream.

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

btw I love how this thread is a fusion of food discussions and political leaning. This is how you do a political discussion in harmony without tearing chunks out of each other.

Actually in Turkish it exists as well as a male name xrofl there is even a tennis player called Tuna Altuna ( Most humans are 90% water but he is all, full on Tuna I guess) but f that we'll turn it into a beautifull edgy girl name!

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

It's no wonder our countries are more corrupt. :lol: Good luck bribing people with black pudding, rotten sharks or whatever those northerners eat.
Blood pudding with crispy bacon and lingonberry jam, yum! xheart But sure, it's definitely not bribery-worthy food. :lol:

But as far as baked goods go, you can have your baklava, and I'll enjoy my semla and kanelbulle. :)

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

Well I will go to Turkey in September, so I will make it my mission to hunt some Baklava down, try it and report back to this thread. We need not wait for Turkey to win esc.

Reporting back. I have just tried Baklava. All I have to say is *drum roll* ......... is that I'm disappointed. My expectations were through the roof with how you all treated it like the 2nd coming. It is alright but it is so overly sweet and sticky. Not in a rush to have anymore. xo

Re: Political Leanings of this Forum

Baklava is something every noob-eater hates or 'doesnt get' though :lol: so no suprise, it is very typical, even I disliked it as a kid (as every shooketh kid here starts). Y'all don't get it, you try it one more time, you try a different kind, you try it again even though you don't like it, this time you needed it and then again and again, somehow you stop caring how sweet it is. And before you know it baklava takes over your existence.

Baklava is not food, it's culture. It takes years of eating baklava continuously before we can take you seriously.

Gosh as I'm typing this I'm craving me some sarma style Baklava xyum my mouth is literally watering

It looks like you describe a Crystal Meth addiction or something. :lol:

I didnt dislike it, just not all that fussed by it. One bit was enough and there was a whole box of it.
