Try not to let US Senator Rick Scott and all his lurid but false claims about 'Communist Chims' alarm you too much.

There you go. Lump every single thing that is in any way fermented and say they're all good to eat.bigtoughralf wrote:Century eggs are great. You can have them over silken tofu with a bit of garlic, chili and oil, or battered and mixed in with minced meat. Plain is also good.
Eating fermented food is a sign of civilisation. e.g.:
- China: century eggs, soy sauce
- UK: Marmite, cottage cheese
- Iran: doogh
- Japan: miso, natto
- India: raita
- Arab world: kefir
- Germany: sauerkraut

As you can see from the accompanying diagram, only some types of fermentative scum float, while other kinds sink to the bottom!

One archaeological hypothesis out there holds that bread and other baked goods were first invented merely as a side-product of early beer-brewing.Pack Rat wrote:Votanic wrote:(knowing chuckle)...

Mmmmm beer. Beer made agriculture possible and the building of the pyramids.
That same claim ("The sky is falling!") has been made by ralph's PAL saxi.KoolBak wrote:Why must you constantly blow up / over emphasize bullshit and assign it to an entire country? Are you THAT threatened by us?
This is about not wanting food that has had human waste used as its fertilizer.
You wanna eat shit? Go for it. More power to ya.
But constantly relying on inductive logic and crying "The sky is falling!" never ends well, you dipshit.

Yes, much ancient beer and wine was actually watered down to make an only slightly alcoholic beverage that was often safer to drink than plain water.Pack Rat wrote:Beer was the first health supplement drink and the buzz was a plus!
The article I shared is exclusively about garlic. If you're struggling with some of the more complicated words maybe you could try zooming in a bit?jusplay4fun wrote:ralph continues his false narratives of what issues concern the US about China. Garlic has to be very low on that list of concerns.
Yes, I read it. My statement is still valid on your false narrative, UNSUPPORTED by your cited article. Since you cannot refute or counter my arguments, so you launch into a personal attack on my ability to read. That is patently false, as you throw out stinky red herrings.bigtoughralf wrote:The article I shared is exclusively about garlic.

I said that the garlic threat is of no real significance, despite what ONE Senator (of 100) said, ralph. IDIOT. You prove your lack of intelligence with every post. Let me go back to ignore you; it is worthless to respond to you. I already said it; let me say it again for the THIRD time in 5 minutes: ralph = IDIOT.bigtoughralf wrote:Article headline: Chinese garlic is a national security risk, says US Senator

Looking at the number of edits you've made to this post, if this is improved and polished version 3 then I hate to think how incoherent and screechy the first draft must have been.jusplay4fun wrote:I said that the garlic threat is of no real significance, despite what ONE Senator (of 100) said, ralph.
