I dont butter anymore.

havnt for years.

when I was kid, we used to get the raw milk from the farmer - was amazing.

there's a dairy closeby here,, i mustve drank 1000's of liters of raw milk,, yet people still think it's dangerous and they only drink homogenized pasteurised milk, which of course, is just mostly crap

Raw milk is fine, I have a few apple and pear trees, I make my own dried fruits too.

society has lost all conception of what 'real food' is

to a degree, comes down to the individual i think.

walk into any supermarket,, 97% of everything is either processed or GMO

individuals don't get to choose what's inside the shelves, or in the fridges

they get presented with 30 different kinds of 'margerine'

I disagree with that. You can be smart with what you buy.

i go to a local grocery store, alot of the stuff there is raw/organic, and not more expensive either really. and they only sell actual food, the only non food stuff they really sell is pasta

well, you're lucky i guess

or maybe it's just how it is where im from

no you are right, im lucky here, we still have the 2 big supermarket chains here, but that local store is always packed with people

I see what people are buying, Pre Cooked Rice lol eveything in a box etc - its not all bad though, some of it is terrible!

I worked in kitchens for 18 years as a cook, so I still cook everything myself, I rarely buy anything "pre made/pre packed"

well, im lucky also to a degree, with a raw dairy farm closeby, guess it's all relative

the whole dehyfrated pre cooked rice thing i dont understand... the things where its like "microwave this plastic bag for 2 minutes and you have brown rice"

it's also about preparing the food, that makes a difference too

I dont own a microwave.

zero love goes into preparing fast food

they do that to steer people away from cooking ^^

when I make chicken soup - it takes 2 days - cos I make it real.

well, when im only cooking for myself i dont like cooking every night, so i make big bathces of stuff i can freeze in glass containers, so i microwave things, i just dont store it in plastic

well, they've got them so wrapped up and so busy always, that there's little time for cooking , coincidence? i doubt

Yeah you don't want that nasty plastic particles in it

there's a government subsidised Mac on virtually every 3rd street corner.. but hell if there are any local organic produce shops are almost impossible to find

whatever doesnt kill you makes yous tronger

My thought is, in my experience, ANYONE can cook good if they really want to -

True true

That's true Cleon. A little effort goes a long way

My sister was a terrible cook, and I showed her a few easy ways of doing things, made a huge difference

lol,, anyone can do anything (cooking/music/whatever) if they really want to

Cooking is funny one though, I mean, after my jobs - I dont eat OUT anywhere.

```GRAVITY IS NOT A FORCE

Newton's theory of gravitation was discarded in 1915 in favor of
Albert Einstein's theory of Special Relativity asserting
That gravity was caused by time dilation from geodesics
Warping the fabirc of 4D lorentz space-time.

Aside from the heavily cherry picked Cavendish and
torsion field balance experiments, there is a
Major lack of cause and effect experimental evidence
To scientifically validate gravity, it remains to this
Very day only a theory!```

I learned how to play an instrument after I learned the first few notes. You just gotta try tbh

I learned how to pressure can low acid foods.
