I’m a simple man, if Summoning Salt uploads, I watch
The last one had an especially alluring title. I had to immediately watch it.
I recently found a channel with the same production format as SummoningSalt. The name of the channel is ‘Abyssoft’
I watched a pretty lengthy FF7 speedrun progression video and got immediately hooked!
This hits hard.
I’ll need extra pizza tonight
I feel personally attacked.
What’s this thing with people claiming tomatoes are vegetables? It’s got seeds in it
Fruit is a botanical term for things with seeds in it. Vegetable is a culinary term. They aren’t mutually exclusive so when people say something is either a fruit OR a vegetable, it isn’t an apples vs oranges comparison.
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
I mean, that it’s a terrible definition of vegetable, considering it rules out a very large amount of vegetables, including tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplants and cucumbers.
You can apply that to pretty much any categorization we make for the natural world.
The natural world doesn’t care for our categorizations or social construct. It can, and will, make shit that just does not fit to any of our boxes, and like it!
Man: mammals have live births and give milk through breasts (technically mammary glands, though most expect nipples)
World: have you met my friend the platypus?
Not nearly as much as you seem to think. “Anything can be anything” is a common line by people who don’t know anything. “Autism is an infinite spectrum. Everyone’s a little bit autistic!” “Everything that looks similar in some ways to a game that’s been called an ‘RPG’ is an RPG!” Assumptions and infinite inclusions come more easily than actual knowledge and categorizations.
It’s a definition of “fruit”: thing that’s full of seeds, intended to fall off the plant.
Technically, any part of a plant is a “vegetable”. Tomatoes? Vegetables. Lettuce leaves? Vegetables. Leek stalks? Vegetables. Spruce 2x4? Vegetables…
Generally when people talk fruits and vegetables they are referring to culinary tradition. Vegetable does not have a precise scientific definition anyway, despite what you’ve heard from The Big Bang Theory.
Most pizza is white bread, marinara sauce, cheese, and less healthy toppings like red or cured meat. Basically pizza is carbs and fat, minimal micro nutrients, and moderate protein. The amount most people need to eat to feel sated is generally more calories than a meal centered around beans, lean meats, or other proteins.
There is also a lot of variability. Deep dish pizzas or some pan pizzas from some chains are soaked in oil in the pan when cooked (looking at you pizza hut). Certain sauces also boost the calorie count, such as ranch or Alfredo.
Likewise, a thin crust pizza with lots of veggies is comparatively ok in terms of calories per slice.
I always mentally treat pizza the same a pasta. It’s a potential to carb and calorie bomb yourself without feeling sated for long, but can be prepared in a way to be better and part of a rounded meal. Eating a couple slices with a salad is fine. Eating a whole pizza on to of other regular meals in the day isn’t.
I think it’s mostly the amount eaten.
When prepared from basic ingredients pizza and pasta are the exact same ingredients : flour, salt, tomatoes, cheese and some extra toppings.
Except that when I’m making pizza at home I know I have to double the amount of flour compared to pasta.
I don’t know why but we are just eating so much more when it’s pizza rather than pastas or another meal.
