Leave it to the libertarians to decry kids eating quinoa and sushi as extravagant while they feast on the finest imported American brainworms.

    You're brain wormed if you think any food is "woke", more so if you think sushi fits that category - its literally raw meat, I thought you guys loved that barbaric "eat raw meat" caveman shit.

      Hummus??? Hummus is woke???? Didn't the Israelis love it so much, they tried to claim it as their own?

      We're doing "do you condemn hummus?" now? I've literally been saying that as a joke to my partner for the last few months (cause I'm lame and repeat jokes constantly) lmao.

      I don't wanna be a food nerd and/or weeb, but no meat is necessary for it to qualify as sushi. The only things required are vinegared rice, nori (dried seaweed), and maybe a third ingredient that's usually vegetables or seafood. The seafood doesn't even need to be raw, like smoked salmon and tempura shrimp are very common sushi ingredients. The main thing that makes it sushi is the rice.

          Sushi is kinda treated as a catch-all in American parlance, just like sake.

          Fun fact: sake just means "booze" in Japanese. It is a catchall. Bud light is sake hahaha

          Still? I'm Canadian and I think everyone post silent generation understood sushi and sashimi were different things by 2010. I'm vegan and eat a LOT of sushi.

      It's raw meat often served to you by a man holding what's basically a sword. Bad ass shit when you think about it.

      Fish is woke because to catch it I have to sit in a small, cramped boat with my best friend and whenever I see him wipe his sweaty cheeks I want to caress them and give him a kiss and that’s a sin against Jesus

      Fish is effete because it has looser muscle fibers and a more delicate flavor, also it doesn't count as meat because of Christianity.

      I wonder if this guy has confused internal screeching when he thinks of pizza or spaghetti, food any conservative enjoys but from a foreign country (and I know it's arguable as these two have histories that probably had aspects of them first be developed in other nations; regardless, those places aren't America).

        That's the sad/hilarious part; you can sell any useless/dangerous thing you want to (certain) people as long as you package it as anti-woke.

            I saw a video of a guy (not necessarily a chud) who stuck a stick under the trunk door of his cybertruck claiming this initial test would prove how safe the trunk door was; it snaps, and he still sticks his finger under the trunk door and gets it broken.

            People would absolutely buy this gun and think it works as advertised.

                Part of what's funny about the video is that he was trying to showcase a software update Tesla released, the purpose of which was specifically for making it safe to close the trunk on your fingers. He tests it with a cucumber and banana and it actually looks reasonably safe but then he does the test with his finger. Not only does the test fail but the trunk won't open so he's stuck there shocked in obvious pain and can't get his finger back out.

                It doesn't actually break but he shows it afterward and it's clearly smashed with bruises and a decent sized cut from the trunk's edge. He comes back and has some excuse from tesla about it being because he tested with veggies first and the software thought he was trying to shut it with something blocking it because of the previous repeated attempts. He actually starts to test it again with his finger saying "This time it should hurt way less..." but he can't do it, he keeps pulling back right before it closes in what I might have said was finally a tiny bit of sense, only it's an instinctive reaction and he can't help it. He concludes that we'll just have to trust it from the last banana test.

      If I had any porky spirit in me, I would sell "historical" meal kits of SS soldier rations to CHUD families.

        Lol, they do make "Doomsday prepper" food buckets that you can buy that costs way more than the shitty food in them. They are essentially MRE kits. I know we are all riffing on the idea but like, there really is a market for it I think. At this point in my life, I'm all for a "grift and go" on stupid food buckets if others wanna get on board too.

      The sweet orange, Citrus x sinensis,[10] is not a wild fruit, but arose in domestication in East Asia. It originated in a region encompassing Southern China, Northeast India,[11] and Myanmar.[12]

      Central Asia is generally considered the center of origin for apples due to the genetic variability in specimens there.[24]

      Lol. Lmao, even.
