Do more research on that claim.
here's one for starter
here's another one
this one's a bit dated, but still relevant
I'd just stop now. I just realized who you're commenting with, and the guy just had a long-ass pissy argument. When I slowed down to show him evidence, he kept changing topics and then ragequit when it didn't work.
Feel free to check my comment history (or his) for proof of this.
Can also check my comment history I'm just going to try and ignore dx1 although I don't know how effective that's going be considering he's on every god dam comment winging and moaning
Well, damn. I got to you too late. Or vice versa.
My wife brought home popeyes since my last comment to you. It's better than KFC π π
I wish I could give popeyes ago sadly I'm across the pond sounds nice enjoy
Their spicy chicken is to die for, and like 90% less greasy than KFC. And I haven't done the math, but I think they're cheaper, too.
We fry our own chicken sometimes, and are pretty damn good cooks. And we prefer Popeyes. Which says something.
Sounds amazing m8 propa stuff if popeyes ever come to the uk I'll.make sure to give it ago some other amercian fast food chains are coming over such as taco Bell I remember seeing that in a few places
It's weird. I normally avoid chain on anything local-friendly. We have tons of chicken farms around (though, they mostly make eggs. A good friend of ours has meat chickens) Just something about Popeyes.
Also, fingers crossed for you gettin it. I'll trade you all the great Indian food you have there in the UK, though!
EDIT: I'd say "fish and chips", but I live on the ocean, so our seafood is comparable, if our cooking styles different)
Locals always best innit better quality stuff plus you get to support your local businesses
Nailed it! My brother-in-law is a Scalloper. I thought scallops were gross until my now-wife cooked em for me. Like savory Marshmallow Filet Mignon of the Sea.
Now if only I wasn't allergic to clam and lobster. Nothing like living in the lobster and chowder capital of the world with an allergy.
Ooo I love scallops my mom would do a pasta thing in a creamy seafoody sauce smiliar tasting sause to carbnora with scallops and prawns with some mushrooms thrown in there tastes quite nice
Your not missing out much when it comes to lobsters as lobsters taste exactly like prawns
I'm not sure if I'm allergic to Prawns or not, though. Ditto with crab. I have one of those "don't mess with it"-tier allergies with Lobster, so I avoid everything that has the same lobster deliciousness.
But yeah. I tend to focus on the Scallop more (no sauce) because a good scallop has a very delicate flavor. My favorite way to eat it is a little butter and some cracker crumb crust. I mean, I LOVE a good authentic carbonara enough that I learned to make my own pasta and cook it. But I don't think I could bring myself to put scallops in it. Maybe scallops for lunch and carbonara for dinner!
You do carbonara with homemade pasta that sounds awesome I'll have to look into making it sometime
Just be careful. Proper carbonara (all egg, no cream) with home-made egg pasta gets INCREDIBLY rich. It's definitely one of those "small plate" things at that point unless you want to brick-belly.
Which, sometimes, is alright. But the other times, I'll use flour+water pasta, which is definitely not as big a jump up from dry as fresh egg pasta, but it's still worth the extra steps.
Alright I'll keep this in mind fanks m8
Yes, start with the Wikipedia one, that actually begins to examine it critically and points out that this campaign against PETA was spearheaded by an animal industry lobbying group...
I love it when people say this without even suggesting where to do this research. Let me guess- Google it. Because that's what I already did.
There's the approach I have to fact-check things, I don't know what other approach people have honestly. Look up fact-checking, debunking etc. on it. I know there are dozens to hundreds of pages that fact-check the parroted "PETA euthanizes too many dogs" claim. I honestly can't believe people are still bringing this one up, I don't know how it could possibly be on me to start digging up sources for you.
"Just look it up until a fringe source from an unknown media group ""debunks"" it, despite the mountains of evidence to the contrary, then change your entire point of view from it" in other words: just google the opposite of what you said and go with that answer plz thx. Color me convinced! For the record: every fact check I looked up corroborated the obvious: PETA euthanizes pets at an obscene rate compared to even the most ruthless pounds in the us.
No, look up individual claims, look up the inverse of the claim, weigh the presented evidence against each other.
I.e., look up the mitigating factors here - was this an isolated case? Was it isolated to one state? Were animals from no-kill shelters dumped on the PETA-run shelter? What's the actual funding of this shelter compared to PETA's general operations? You know, ACTUAL THOROUGH ANALYSIS. Take the actual facts in question and put them properly in context instead of just swallowing literal animal ag industry propaganda coming out of groups like the Weston Price Foundation that have a vested interest in discrediting groups like PETA.
It's like every time people post something false, and you know it's false, you can't just let them know, they expect you to spend the next two hours of your life pulling up all the sources to show them, again and again and again and again and again and again. I've had this exact same conversation dozens of times, I'm sick of it. Can you not just learn how to research for yourself? Can you not post the discredited claim in the first place so we don't have to constantly play this game? Like, do the fact checking properly in the first place?
seems like you know how to avoid this, but you choose instead to get mad at people asking you to support your own claims.
