Hey, a few snails are nothing compared to the disgusting shit the Chinese eat.
And I’m not saying that to be racist. It’s purely a dietary horror I have for their revolting and cruel habits.
The random animals they either catch from wild or raise in horrific conditions to sell to eat because ‘some bogus reason to do with ‘traditional Chinese medicine’ or male erection insecurity’.
I mean how about the ‘wet market’ where C19 apparently sprung from; bats, pangolins, god only knows what else.
As I said, I am not racist in the least, but I will admit to being somewhat disgusted by many aspects of their culture. As others have discussed elsewhere, the Cultural Revolution destroyed the previous Chinese cultural norms and created a somewhat blank slate that did not include politeness etc. This seems to be by design.
To be fair, I’m also disgusted by many aspects of ‘Western’ culture, including regional variations and various hypocrisies. Again, nothing to do with race.
In fact, lots of human behaviour disgusts me. Hey, when was that asteroid due again?!?

I wish it was that easy to make croissants

Are you sure you're making them correctly? Do you include the grub or are you trying to make some weird vegetarian version?

Is this… a bug report?

Bullshit. The croissants are not fried, but baked in the oven.

American here who hadn’t realized just how much I could rhetorically love having a honey-glazed deep-fried croissant bucket in my life

Americans would cram pulled pork into that thing and wonder why they are having a heart attack.

What do you do with all the time you save writing 'rn' instead of 'right now'?
It has to add up to minutes a year!

To believe that a snack as low cholestorol as that would give us a heart attack. Such a sweetly intoxicating innocent.

Knowing what else the French like to eat, this could in fact be real
