Post

I can live with being all for foodposts only because I don’t consider what @jongraywb.blacksky.app posts to be food.

Except for White Castle burgers. I heard those were actually toxic.

Claims to be in favor of food posts, yet doesn’t follow me. Suspicious.

Sorry. Obliged. Favour.

I agree generally with this, but for those of us observing Passover right now, these post can be a bit....triggerring. (I want sandwich on a good roll so badly right now...)

#GoodLunch has slowed way down, so give that a boost maybe. :)

This reminds me of that time right now where I checked on the pork shoulder I’ve been smoking for 11 hours so far.

True. And also nature 🍄‍🟫 photos as well as animal 🐱🐾 pics. Bc there can't be anything bad about them other than photo quality.

Bagels and maters the loooong waaay

But this clown show...

I favorite any cooking, gardening, and craft or art projects. Pretty much anything where someone is at least trying to make something. It's good to support people's efforts, even if the efforts themselves aren't great.

unless you're on mastodon then you have to cw the food or people will yell at you, lol

(It's also part of why I gave up on Mastodon. The discourse around precise tagging of food/alcohol mentions was anxiety-inducing and I don't need that in my sandwich tweets.)

100% same

I hope you follow @swordsjew.bsky.social and their series on great sandwiches of the world!

When I go on the 'What's Cooking' feed, I genuinely like the range of stuff. It wouldn't be half as human and enjoyable if all the posts were beautifully photographed pictures of the fanciest and most elegant food. That there are also blurry photos of the soup someone liked is integral to the charm.

Stilton soda bread was interesting...excuse to buy lots of Stilton

good Lord, now that you mention it, I do yearn for the days that "posting pictures of food is so dumb!" was the biggest grievance anyone had about social media

If I have to hear one more jerkoff be disgusted by the concept of pineapple on pizza...

The stakes in mocking ketchup-on-hotdog enjoyers or people who think there are pizzas with pineapple* on are so incredibly low *I'm not a denier, I know Hawaiian-inspired Italian-style flatbread food products exist, but clearly pineapple is not a pizza topping, so foods with pineapple are not pizza

Not that I think you should be forced to tag it, but that one is more reasonable than people are making it out to be

We miss Link and his perfect takes on British "food"

Agreed. Can't stand how hard it is, living on the east coast, to get good, Chicago deep-dish pizza.

Lol not with that attitude

Some of your food discourse has been deeply contentious (laudatory).

Food discourse only gets salty if it's half baked

The real reason Jesus came back.

They look so delicious

this. i think food as a topic is almost inherently less toxic because, unlike politics, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter what anybody else does for dinner... and from that flows even the arguments i've seen about food tending to be more lighthearted. "best potato chip" isn't important.

Sometimes they get peppered with spicy comments?

The worst sin of food discourse is when it's boring. That's way less bad than the worst sin of other discourses.

this mfer be beefin’

I can't believe Faine is pro-hypertension, smdh

Food discourse is enrichment for posters. We would all be happier here if we spent less time arguing about politics and more time arguing about what technically qualifies as a sandwich.

I’ll be showing up at peoples houses...

Speaking of salty scientists have shown that at altitude with lower pressure human taste buds become less sensitive so food don't taste as good. However, Asian airlines like EVA really challenge that finding.

Will always cherish this picture not only because the pasta was so delicious but it was the final business trip I took back in Feb 2020 (to Brussels then Rotterdam) before the covid pandemic locked everything down.

Hitler was a vegetarian.

I'm from CT but live in Chicago so I get a lot of occasions to be outraged about pizza.

I have also learned some good techniques from past discourses

Jokes are definitely one thing, actual hate is totally different.

Could not disagree more.

cooked this discounted sirloin just now in a cast iron pan and feeling cute might delete later

There are at least two food only threads here, What's Cooking and another. A lot of vegetarian and vegans post on them. Your food and this tableau looks lovely.

Thank you for introducing me to breadsky, didn't know it was there, but now I'm subscribed

(Also, I don't expect anyone to remember this but hat tip to the old LJ classic "Eat some lentils, Fatty")

but what if we have ARFID though

Fantastic pic

That is acceptable if it is food you cooked. It doesn’t hold if it is food, you got at a restaurant, and are now trying to convince the restaurant to give you for free because you are an “influencer“. Those posts are extremely toxic.

Exactly the reason I started this account. People have been really nice!

First Passover desserts that actually came out pretty — flourless brownie bites and meringues with berry-rose jam.

what if I made it in a scratched up teflon skillet? 🥁

Unless you set off Australian’ potato cake/scallop wars

Did this come from a Vincent Price cookbook?

until you start posting about mayo, Faine

Food discourse only gets salty if it's half baked

They DO post those but with a content warning. Which is I guess slightly less ridiculous but still imagine being all "WARNING: I'm about to post the Mona Lisa"

you can also listen to @deliciouslegacy.bsky.social, a terrific podcast Faine turned me on to

This, and also animal rescue videos. If everyone would watch one 5-minute rescue video per day, it would chill us all out.

Oh that sounds lovely! Save some leftovers for me! 😋

Lovely. But do you have to wear sunglasses in the dark?

Chicken dinner!

Lol, Im sorry you don’t like the classics. You can always generate new material.

Also, not to be too defensive of my disgusting looking but delicious garbage food, but I don’t ever to see anyone keep the same energy for chili dogs. If you’re at a Greek diner, they’re often using the same or similar meat sauce on the hot dog.

Yeah it’s like a deconstructed patitsio, it’s not trying to be a broadside in the Chili Definition Wars.

I don't think I'd want that

You should make your own without cloves! I make a chickpea tagine that has very similar spices, (no cloves) and it's great. I haven't tried putting the spice mix + sauce on spaghetti, but I bet it would be good.

Yeah paella is to people from Spain like barbeque to American southerners

Agreed, but I sigh deeply at the constant stream of "look at my nails".

Actually, that one made me laugh, thanks for the good vibe.

The people who ate this kind of thing unironically in the 50s are making our laws now

All food posts? Ok then …

i beg to differ

CW: nourishment

My wife @erinyes.eurosky.social made the most amazing chili today. My mouth was very happy!

Anyways, here's a goated cookies and cream pound cake that I got from today's Spring Festival in Orlando (seller is Sister's Harmony):

This is magnificent!

Don’t ask what the crosses are made of.

hot cross bums

A holiday spread: two plates, each plate featuring a mashed potato mound that has a pool of gravy in its center, sitting next to a large serving of green beans with onions. Behind the plates are a well-browned whole roast chicken on a raised rack and a cast-iron skillet holding a baked crumble.

I'm slightly surprised it didn't cross streams with the mayo discourse and result in a food fight

Protips: when traveling oversea, don't rely on US based apps like Google to find restaurants. We found this excellent place in Barcelona merely by browsing around and checking what others were eating.

No food but pet ok?

Joke's on you, I'm not trained to make fugu.

doomscrolling usually cuts my appetite. now I'm sitting in bed, mouth watering, not even sure what I want to eat because I want literally everything. you ruined the perfectly good horror that used to be a delightfully toxic internet. you did this.

bsky.app/profile/gspe...

idk I saw some insane comments under some food pics @peark.es took

May I recommend @restaurant-bot.bsky.social @discontinuedfoods.bsky.social
