      @Luke Hinds Signing channel I really feel that! For me, it's gotten better as I age, but even now, if you drop me in an area where people have facial features I'm not used to seeing, it all comes back. My area was full of Polish people and Puerto Ricans so I'm good with distinguishing people in those groups, but if you don't fall in either of those categories, I can't recognize you by face. Also I have a hard time if I'm meeting a bunch of people at once.

      I think they're just afraid of change and of trying new things. Plenty of people are also afraid of bidets for the same reasons, believe it or not. So while a bidet is light years better aand cleaner, I've actually heard people say they are "gross." I'll tell you what's gross...walking around unclean like all non-bidet users do. And they do. You are not as clean as you should be if you do not use a bidet. Facts.

      I’ve made a similar version of this, using chopped chestnuts and mushrooms instead of eggplant, and I wrapped it in the traditional way as you suggest. It works great. I think Merle might have been going for the aesthetic of having the “meat” stick out of the end like a pig-in-a-blanket.

    Am I the only person that was stuck on that random clip of hands when she said to put the eggplant in a reusable bag? That was so random and I can't get over it lol
