Don’t actually start shit please.
So my take
meat take
is that boneless chicken wings are in all ways superior to normal chicken wings.
vegetarian take
Firm tofu is hands down better than all other forms of tofu, tempeh, etc.
And mash potatoes on pizza isn’t actually that bad. Just make it a proper pureé instead of smooshing up a baked potato with a spoon and calling it a day.
CW: non vegan post
My take is that as long as you enjoy your food I don’t care how you eat it. Put pineapple on your pizza or make a banana and mayo sandwich or whatever weird shit you want if you like it eat it I don’t really care. Folks get real bent outta shape with the “how dare you enjoy food the way you want to” takes it’s stupid. Eat it how you wanna eat it
Boo with the snuggle sessions
The more I live the more I learn that for most people all we get sometimes are those little moments of joy and I go out of my way to avoid taking those moments away
BOO STOP BEING SUCH A CUTIE PATOOTIE WITH YOUR THOUGHTFUL AND COMPASSIONATE CARE FOR OTHERS NEEDS! WE’RE HERE TO PLAYFULLY HISS AT EACH OTHER OVER SILLY TAKES
FINE YOU WANNA HISS HERES SNEK
I’m mainly only playing along so I don’t get mod abuse banned I’m actually too nice to hiss at a comrade
Oh thanks for reminding me about the main rule, your prior rule has no main by the way
NOOOOOO
I blocked a user i usually like interacting because they got really weirdly belligerent about me saying using doritos for nachos isn’t all that weird because it’s literally a chili lime flavored tortilla chip anyway and then they sicced the mods on me for misgendering because I was just like “ok, guy”
FYI y’all for the record everyone my “ok, guy” was not meant to be an attack on their they them pronouns and i feel like that shoulda been obvious
“ok, guy” is like calling everyone dude. Don’t. Unless they’re a dude or a guy or tell you it’s okay. Otherwise it’s misgendering even if you don’t mean it as such. They correctly sicced the mods on you and it doesn’t seem like you’ve learned from it so hopefully this time you do. If someone doesn’t want to be referred to by a gender don’t refer to them as similarly gendered words either it’s actually extremely easy and unambiguous.
Although you are correct about Doritos for nachos I do that all the time
The person beibg referred to was me and I didn’t report the comment. I made a reply with a correction.
It was very clearly an exasperated non-response to debate bro-ism over something stupid and making it out like im making a bigoted statement on their gender for it is wack and Im resentful of the implication that I meant something harmful by it. Especially when THEY were getting weird and belligerent towards me. Over chips.
On that note ive never seen anyone accused of misgendering for accusations of debate broism
Getting a post removed for misgendering isn’t an attack on you it’s a protection for the person being misgendered. One of my trans enby comrades is AMAB and the amount of times they have had their day ruined because someone said “thank you sir” or “hey dude” or whatever is honestly surprising to me but those words are something they want to distance themselves from and even if it’s not meant as an attack on them it hurts them when it happens. Intent doesn’t matter, your impact does. I’ve learned to fiercely protect them and all the other comrades in my life as a result because there’s just no reason for people to be hurting them like that even accidentally.
Honestly I’ve had posts removed for misgendering by accident too it doesn’t mean I’m some raging bigot it just meant I was careless, someone else had to clean it up for me, and I need to do better next time.
It’s not about you. Just do better that’s all anyone is asking.
So maybe the wizard of lonliness doesn’t know that I can still see their posts. Here’s the exchange in full. I didn’t report the comment. But since im being talked about like I can’t see the fucking posts here we go.
And wizardoflonliness is like the 3rd account of someone who has been repeatedly banned for not CWing meat and throwing a fit over being asked to.
So anyway, read it for yourself and make of it what you will, here’s the thread link as well.

Talking shit like im not even here
Edit last and 2nd last image should swapped
“authentic” does not necessarily mean good
If it weren’t for the quality of ingredients, this meme would be unironically true.
i don’t really think the word authentic means any thing any more. it’s been abused by marketing so much it’s a red flag when i see it
I like hawaiian pizza
Mild take, go back to reddit
*tips fedora*
Bone in meat is fucking dog shit and all the people who think leaving the bone in makes the flavor magically better are wrong, all you’re doing is making people have to work eating around shit. I don’t care what nerd shit you wanna say to me about collagen or bone marrow or whatever, the difference in flavor is imperceptible and the difference in eating EXPERIENCE is massive. Fillets all day.
You will hate it in China. Order some duck or chicken rice, they will cook it whole, then cut the entire thing up, bones en all, with a cleaver, and dump it straight into the bowl. Shards of shattered bone everywhere
oh god
It makes a noticeable difference in stews and soups where bone and cartilage can actually break down
well yeah but then you’re having it affect the consistency and mouth feel of the soup so yeah i agree, i meant more like bone in steaks or pork chops or chicken wings and stuff like that
i have been observing voluntary dietary restrictions already and am seriously tempted to make the leap to vegetarian, because what i’m learning right now about avoiding certain foods is that it’s hard, it’s annoying, but it’s doable, and I am capable of cooking my own food to some robust degree. It’s time.
Vegan is another step beyond, i might get there someday, but i’m interested in moving that way. The inertia of a lifetime of eating meat, my relative lack of means, and the stress of life makes big changes difficult right now, but I accept the moral arguments, I want to get there.
This deserves a
Outdoor cat burgers have a significantly better mouthfeel thanks to their free range diet.
Propane barbeque, charcoal barbeque, or pan fried? Remember that there is only one right answer
Charcoal, but done indoors, because I’m carbon-neutral, but hate outdoor cats.
gas stove
indoor cat with that veal-like muscle and fat development
You might think a wagyu steak has marbling but you’ve never tried fat cat who never moves around steak j/s
im not even a vegan and i’m grossed out by my own comment
😠
Now here’s a spicy take from hexbear’s own Civility!
al dente pasta sucks, give that shit another 2 minutes
woo we going after that Italian demographic today folks!
GOOD take
Firm tofu is hands down better than all other forms of tofu
this is too nonsensical to agree or disagree with. like saying blue is hands down better than 16
firm and silken tofu are for completely different things in completely different contexts. all you’ve said with this post is that you don’t know very much about how to use tofu
I’d normally say telling a Korean they don’t know shit about tofu is a wild take, but we’re here in a thread asking for wild takes.
is gooey cheese the same as hard cheese? i’ll remind you, tofu is bean cheese
if you decide to argue the latter point then explain to me why making tofu and making ricotta cheese is the EXACT SAME
Maybe the nonsense is the hot take. Hard to agree with a take you can’t comprehend
I eat white sugar and a few other edge cases but I still call myself vegan because it’s easier than saying “I eat mostly plant based”
I had to Google what’s non-vegan about white sugar. ANIMAL BONE CHAR? JFC carnists what is wrong with you people
Firm tofu makes for the best analog for chicken, in my opinion. Some firm tofu, roughly sliced, soaked in Soy Vay Teriyaki, fried, and served over rice? Absolutely delicious, good texture, easy to make.
I don’t know if it’s my area, but I’ve also noticed firm tofu is generally on the cheaper side, which is doubly nice when you’re trying to make healthy meals on a budget.
Ah my supposedly cringe take is actually not cringe? Strike me down for I am too normie!
Better than seitan?!
Burgers, bean or otherwise, should be simple
The second you begin to go beyond the scope of “patty with condiment on a bun”, you’re just putting hats on hats
And that’s just silly
Simple? Yes. Just condiment? No. A few good toppings can take a burger from good to great.
Compare: patty and mayo vs patty, cheese, crunchy lettuce, mushrooms, and mayo.
Call me crazy, but if I want greens, I just have a salad
Burger time is the time for burger, and burger is what I shall have
that’s crazy. lettuce provides crunch on a burger which makes for a nice textural contrast with the chewy and unctuous cheese, meat and bread
You need onion. More important than the patty ong
But what of we’re TF2 sandvich fans and love to collect hats
Pootis sandvich here.
This goes triple for eggs. You’re not making the burger better, you’re just making eggs worse.
Yes, waiter, I want my burger to goosh egg yolk all over myself and make a big mess
If you know what a cows life is like and continue to support that exploitation I will distrust you. I do not understand how you can look yourself in the mirror after purchasing a carton of milk again and frankly I don’t care.
I said hot takes not normie takes
i too have watched Okja
(all joking aside, at the very least ppl need to stop eating pigs and cows. at the VERY LEAST)
I didnt, putting it on my to watch list. Thanks!
Veganism good.
Well, it will get me that reaction among normies.
TRUE! But we’re here. So big ups for normie take
Fuckin hate it. Food is awful. I’d much rather photosynthesize. (may have an ED? for me it’s not super severe though, I just really don’t enjoy eating)
