Men like em fried, boiled, poached, raw, scrambled, fried bread dipped in egg etc.
But I noticed that women dont really like eggs, why? Is it a feminine issue?

It was hiding right at the back of my cupboard. When I retrieved it I found that it had started to sprout. This vegetable was clearly a living thing, and although it did not outwardly display any signs of anxiety at being caught, what is to say that this living being was not quaking in his little boots. Would I be morally right or wrong to skin this little fella, chop him up and serve him up for dinner. It is obviously a living creature.
Are vegetarians actually worse than omnivores when it comes to cruelty to living things? After all they kill, skin and slice up all that they eat thus committing acts of cruelty directly to their food. At least when an omnivore buys a piece of meat it is already dead.
Incidently the potato is currently enjoying a stay of execution on my window sill pending a decision

My girlfriend's birthday is coming up. Taking her out for a nice dinner, night on the town, and for afterwards some quiet patio time for which I've ordered a raspberry cheesecake from a local bakery. What should I serve to drink with the cheesecake? Champagne? Wine? And if so, red or white?

Is there a way to buy milk in bulk at the home? or would it just start to go bad after weeks? I can drink 1/3 gallon per day. I thought it was a vitamin D craving subconciously but I took vitamin D pills, and this upset my ulcer and had me doubled over at work for hours. then again before I threw the pills away. Yay Milk!

I don't know if I'm the only one, but I've fallen madly in love with Panera Bread's Fuji Apple salad. I think I would go as far as making the salad every other night for dinner. Only I have one problem.

I have no idea where to buy apple vinaigrette dressing. And even if I did I wouldn't be able to guarantee whether or not the taste was similar.

Can anyone help me in my search or offer a good recipe? I've come up with nothing.

I am inviting my boyfriend and his kids over for tuna noodle casserole. The kids are picky so I decided to make something simple! I wanted to know what else I can make with this dish that would fit well with it or should I just have that as the dinner?

Do we have the right to murder innocent sentient beings for food when science has proven that a vegetarian diet is all we need for proper nutrition. If we murder our next door neighbor, we go to jail, but if we murder an innocent sentient being, we call it a big mac. What is the difference?

I was thinking of juicing some of the pepper sprouts. I know I can juice the peppers, but I wasn't sure about the pepper sprouts.

If you have nothing nice to say, please do not answer my question. I am sick and tired of all the negativity in the V&V section. Hatemongers will be reported.

my grandmother made these for us when I was a child. Yes salty, but crunchy and a treat. I know they use water and salt(enough to float an egg). But are the cucumbers boiled before canning and do you add alum and lime? Lime tends to make the pickles soft and less crunchy. Since the salt is a perservative, I don't think you need to add alum. Any thoughts or old family recipes for these out there. Help greatly appreciated. Kind regards to all.

I'm attempting to make amaranth bread.

I was supposed to add active yeast...I know one package was active, but I’m not sure about the other—though I believe it was.

I substituted honey for brown sugar and stone ground whole wheat flour for: white flour, quiona flour and corn meal.

The yeast didn’t foam up after 10 minutes, so I added dry ingredients anyway.

I’m kneading...
And kneading, but the mixture is too wet.
I imaged it would be smooth...like rolling pin smooth.
So, I added more dry ingredients until I had none left.

The dough is still too sticky.
I covered it and set it aside.

I’m to wait 1.5 hours
Knead again
Let rise 2nd time
Punch down dough
And form into two loaves to bake at 350 for 1 hour.

QUESTIONS

1. Will it turn out okay even though the dough is so sticky now?
2. I do not have 9x5 loaf pans...what else can I use?

It's a ripe coconut, not young and not in the husk.

I tapped the equator with a heavy knife, I hit the equator on the edge of a brick wall, none of this worked. I finally gave up on getting two some what symmetrical sides, wrapped it in a towel and hit it with a hammer.

I know how to break it into PIECES but everything I looked up doesn't work and I'm afraid of saws.

Im trying to teach my sister and my parents that animals are not for eating so maybe instead of buying an egg IM going to buy the little chicks they sell them for 1 dollar and im going to raise it and then no one will be able to eat it and they will realize that animals have feelings too. Can you imagine my dad trying to take a bite of his KFC while watching the little chick run around the house? i'd love to see his face! maybe i'll buy a tank of fishes and other animals.. is it a good idea??? im not in favor of pets or keeping animals in jail but its for a good cause..

I do marinate my steak before cooking and I prefer it well done. But it seems that every single time I cook a steak or any kind of meat, it chars a bit. I know it is supposed to brown and get dark. I am not too sure if I have it too high of heat. I spray the pan before cooking, but it does not seem to help. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated, thank you!
