Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Idc how you cook it. The best you'll get out of me is it's mediocre. Dark meat is superior.

its lack of flavor is irrelevant

Excuse me? No, how it tastes is absolutely relevant.

You're using white meat in a way I could with anything. I could cook a dirty boot in a chicken broth for 13 hrs and it'll taste eatible. (My goofy way to explain what you're attempting to proclaim here.)

I like that, but at that point, the chicken isn't so much chicken

You did get there in the end, tho.

For the first, I think that white meat is in fact superior breaded and deep fried, because flavor really is irrelevant at that point. You don't bread and deep fry something to enjoy the flavor - you bread and deep fry it to make it satisfyingly crunchy and chewy (and use a dip for flavor) and white meat has a better grain for that.

For the second - I'm just saying that though I otherwise agree that dark meat is better, I don't dislike white meat. I guess I felt some need to stick up for it a bit...

Stop saying flavor is irrelevant.

It's a hard stop. If this is somehow not something you can comprehend in terms of food, that we eat, then your opinion isn't even worth reading.

Until you can AT LEAST admit that the flavor of the food we digest is important, then I will stop reading right there and not take your comment seriously.

Stop reading then. Why should I give a fuck?

I expressed my view and provided my reasoning. I couldn't possibly care less whether you agree or not (and particularly since you can't even manage a contrary argument - all you can do is ball your fists up and stamp your feet and shout "Nuh UH!")

[–] MaXimus421@lemmy.world -2 points 20 hours ago

Nah, my post. I'll read all I like.

You'll be alright.

Discussing food and says flavor is irrelevant.

I don't even have to clap back. Your comment makes you look stupid and no amount of downvotes will change that.
