  • @Kateresa42
    @Kateresa42 Год назад +31

    Love your videos so far! I also used to not understand why vegans/vegetarians would want a fake version of the foods they avoid. And then in my late 20s I developed an allergy to shellfish and in my late 30s I developed an allergy to mammal meat after getting bit by a lone star tick. Even years later, I still crave red meat, especially bacon, steak, a nice juicy burger, and I miss a lot of the Chinese and Korean dishes I grew up with that contain oyster sauce or shrimp paste. So now I’m just grateful for people making vegan kim chee, and turkey bacon. It’s not the same, but it does help when I have cravings I can’t satisfy. The idea of developing a food allergy must be terrifying for a professional chef!

      @diarmuidkuhle8181 7 месяцев назад +6

      Yes I completely get it. I mean going vegetarian or vegan isn't supposed to be like some penance where you swear off a thing you enjoy. But you might feel that a particular food tasting good is not enough justification for killing a living creature. That doesn't mean that food doesn't still taste good, just that you can't reconcile eating it with your ethical principles. Perfectly fine to find a replacement. And I have to say as a meat-eater, some of those replacements are delicious in their own right and I will sometimes order them over the meat option.

    • @ShadeSlayer1911
      @ShadeSlayer1911 7 месяцев назад

      Ticks always scared me, with lyme disease and all that. But after learning about that red meat allergy that they can give you, I'm even more terrified of them.
      However, I also heard that the allergy can wear off after a couple of years.
      And there's imitation shellfish that is pretty good too.

    • @princejoseph8280
      @princejoseph8280 5 месяцев назад

      Vegans avoid food that end up harming animals because of ethical reasons but they still might like the taste of those kind of food, they just sacrifice that in order to be ethical. So it makes sense for them to eat something that replicates the taste. Although usually these imitation doesn’t even come close to the taste so most vegans don’t go for it.

      Alpha-Gal is a horrible thing. I have friends (a couple) who both got it. I asked if they had tried Impossible burgers. They were excited. I told them to check with an allergist if the heme (a blood protein) would cause problems. It doesn't. Something you could use for the cravings. It's good tasting as well.

  • @eng-eq7xy
    @eng-eq7xy Год назад +29

    It's probably been mentioned elsewhere, but the reason why non-stick pots and pans, as well as good knives, should not be placed in the dishwasher is the fact that the detergents used contain abrasives (needed to remove food particles).
    As an aside, you can use a dishwasher to sanitize knives, bottles, post, and pans. So long as the dishwasher is clean, and you don't use any detergent (rinse solutions should be okay), a dishwasher can get MUCH hotter than what you get out of the tap, and will remove exponentially more microorganisms as a result.
    Fun Fact: When my lab is out in the field, we bring an Instant Pot Max with us to act as a makeshift autoclave. It can get to 15psi of pressure, and 121oC, so can sterilize most small equipment.
    Where I am (Ontario, Canada, just outside Toronto), sushi is incredibly popular, but a lot of it isn't what I'd call traditional. Pretty well every grocery store sells a variety of California Rolls, salmon, and tuna rolls, but a lot of it is things like fried shrimp.
    Now most cities will have a variety of casual sushi restaurants, and a few really good places in cities >100,000 people. They can range from mid-high in terms of price...with some cracking into the "I just paid $50 for 2 pieces of toro sashimi", but it's very widespread.
    Edit: Holy s#!t! Candy in whatever the heck that was? The only thing I can think as a positive is that Nerds are basically pure sugar with some citric acid and artificial flavourings/colourings, but no...just no.

    I also never noticed before how efficient Uncle Roger's filming setup is. I thought he was recording the nephew bits after the fact from a different location, but he's actually just got an asymmetrical set that looks significantly different from a 90 degree angle, and the cameras are not at the same offset from center, so it doesn't look like a mirror image when he turns to the other cam.

    Thank you for your wonderful videos.
    I'm a vegan who converted long ago because of factory farming and other ethical reasons.
    That being said, I used to enjoy the flavor and texture of meat. Looking back, I realize it was because of the fatty texture, salt, seasonings and aromas.
    I understand why some people try to recreate those flavors, textures and aromas. It makes it easier to transition and stay on the vegetarian/vegan journey.
    Over time, though, one's tastes change.
    I've happily adapted to plant based flavors and textures, so each dish stands on its own, without needing to be "meat".

    I was born in Poland and we eat fish a lot, because fishing is like the to go Hobby for a lot of dads. Of course most of the time we don't eat it raw, but fish Tatar was an exception. So after getting in contact with Japanese culture it came almost naturally to me to like sushi (1995 kid, growing up with dragon Ball, getting into more of it, after internet became more accessible).

      That woman only missed one trick. She should have tossed a good 1/2 cup or so of cheap Vodka in with the meat while cooking. That way when she carefully rinsed all of the fat-soluble and water-soluble flavors out of the meat, she could have eliminated the alcohol-soluble components as well.

    I would say Japanese cuisine in general, including sushi is quite popular where I am from (Singapore), and I understand it is also popular with our neighbours like Malaysia (I have Malaysian colleagues who really like Japanese food). Personally, I prefer sashimi to sushi though (I think it might be because in Singapore, restaurants have the tendency to put too much rice into sushi), and raw fish is actually quite common in East Asian food (some groups of south Chinese often have it during Lunar New Year, for example, and the Teochew and Hainanese (at least in Singapore, not sure about China and other diasporas) have it with rice porridge as part of a meal).

    I love sushi myself (not a fan of tuna, but I love salmon sushi and sashimi), and it does seem to be quite popular here in Canada, and I would imagine in the US as well. I feel like I remember sushi restaurants started popping up everywhere, in my city at least, about 10-15 years ago. My city tends to be behind in those aspects though (we only got a pho place maybe 7 years ago for example, and only just got a second one).

    • @toriless

      Pho hit the US in the 1980's. They were everywhere. Less now, just like Thai the bad ones went away. Sushi has grown at a more healthy pace and may last. Even Costco has a daily supply and it is better than from any grocery.

      Its pretty simple: You give up on meat, because you want to reduce animal suffering and don't support slaughter or the conditions of factory farming, but you do like the taste of meat. Its a moral decision to give up, not because you don't like the taste! 90% of vegetarians/vegans don't give up on meat/milk products etc because they don't like the taste but for the animal welfare thought! Hope that helped clarifying. 😃

      I was vegetarian for 8 months until two weeks ago (iron got too low, starting again soon) and I absolutely get the point of making something taste like meat if you're vegetarian, especially if you grew up with it. Like someone below said, you can like the taste of meat and not support it. Making something taste like meat can ease cravings and help someone adjust to the lifestyle. It can also help replicate dishes you miss.
