See if you do it that way then it is good.
I used to get half a pig , organically fed and lots of natural beef every year and store it in the freezer.

what the hell are these?!

evenstar said:

everything here is prawn flavoured....

shanti0608 said:

I'm not

shanti0608 said:

that. is. weird.

shanti0608 said:

me too, its the only way, i do not eat intensively farmed meat
i think it is disgusting the way they farm and grow animals and even more disgusting
the way they kill and package them onto unsuspecting consumers...

evenstar said:

oh my god i agree purple sells apparently..

i blame gary linekar

Every place has it's bad/unhealthy food I'm sure, it all comes down to what we choose to eat :

These things scare me as well...fake bacon flavour

When someone is new to a country, it seems difficult (or impossible) to find the items you want, you don't know the names of the shops or what they sell, so you decide it just doesn't exist. Which really isn't true--ya just have to know where to look.

I had an Orger friend visiting from New Zealand last year. I pointed him in the general direction of a good grocery store within walking distance before I left for work one morning--he walked in the opposite direction and ended up at the 7-11. So for awhile he thought THAT was where I went shopping for food....

Grainy breads, fresh produce, sliced cheese, organic meats, etc.--it all exists unless you're in podunk, USA. Ask around.

evenstar said:

wtf is that?

very wise words my dear. Allthough I can remember from both my visits to the UK and the US that the search for healthy alternatives is so much more difficult than it is here in mainland Europe. I can get fresh fruit, veggies, fish, meat virtually on every streetcorner.

If it were me I'd find myself a place in southern France or Spain and live the good life their, getting fresh food from local farmers and fisherman ... I'll need to work some more to get that done though

But the UK got Gordon Ramsey and he's hilarious

i don't know, ben only said it's horrid



for the love of god that is WRONG

evenstar said:

I guess that is what the batchelors eat here instead of ramen noodles.



NASTY!

One4All4Ever said:

Who??? I guess I can look him up!

but yeah if you are looking for farms in my part of Cali, you will have no luck

veronikka said:

he is entertaining...he does curse a lot when I see him on tv.
I like Jamie Oliver

shanti0608 said:

i will never speak ill of ramen again

evenstar said:

me either

veronikka said:

he's still kinda nice in this vid

If I ever came to your part of Cali, farms would be the last thing I'd be looking for

shanti0608 said:

Nothing bad about ramen noodles if you combine them with fresh prawns, veggies and real stock.

horatio said:

typically you will find farmer markets set up at a corner lot near you on the weekends stocked with seasonal fruits and veggies and other home-made goodies and even fresh flowers. Its just not the season for it yet.

One4All4Ever said:

ok I do know him he's from Hell's Kitchen he nust be that good for anyone to stick around

yup to many other things to see and visit here to go to a farm

One4All4Ever said:

I guess if you like prawns

I do agree, you must throw out that nasty fake flavour packet that is enclosed for of MSG.

One4All4Ever said:

I cannot watch him in Hell's Kitchen but I love him on Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares.

veronikka said:

REALLY!?!? I've totally learned something here. I know the history behind it, but I thought chitterlings -- at least in the U.S. -- were almost exclusively an African American thing anymore. Do many Latino families eat this stuff?

shanti0608 said:

you can also go for very thinly sliced pork or beef. Cook up the stock, throw in the ramen, then the green veggies, at the last minute throw in the meat and finish with fresh, cut up coriander

flavour with pepper, salt, sambal and maybe some sesame oil.

Lammastide said:

if these are intestines then yes they are a very popular food with Mexican people. We call then Tripas and I beleive they are deep fried people make tacos out of these
