It's worse because I have high contrast turned off,
because it's incompatible with a lot of Websites. I
read Bonbons on toast. As I understand it, the Irish
regiments had Irish officers, perhaps not all the way to
the top, but you got Irish majors and colonels and such.
I think most of them were Protestants however. Back in the day, you generally had to come from a somewhat wealthy family to end up as an officer, at least most of the time.
I'm not sure. Certainly with Catholics my doubts
expressed earlier here would obtain.
Result: quite crispy on the outside, raw inside. The
waitress asked if I needed them sent back. I sighed and
said I'd eat them, which I did, the crispy part anyhow.
Ewwwww. Ick. Burnt on the outside, raw on the inside. Double ick.
Not quite burnt. It appears that the potatoes come
preshredded and saturated with oil, so they're
virtually impossible to burn. I took the pale
insides and fried them up several days later, and
they got very crispy without added either oil or
attention.
Yeah - I'm fond of latkes and latkelike things,
with maybe a few exceptions.
Starch plus oil plus heat usually equals good things.
As I said, I ate the crispy parts.
Not the worst thing that could have happened. As long as the cow and
pig parts were OK.
They were standard commercial product, the bacon
slightly too fatty and the ham slightly not salty
enough, both good from my standpoint. Spam was Spam.
The worst thing that could have happened would have
been if I'd died from the unhealthy meal.
As with most of those rules, there are caveats. That
is mostly true if you're inclined to urinary problems
and if you like rhubarb leaves enough to down a large
serving, several times in a short period. If you eat
Unless you get really unlucky of course. It's like green potatoes.
There may not be enough poison in one to hurt you, but then again
there's no point in taking chances.
I don't, as you are aware, think that way.
you. My great-grandfather thought ripe tomatoes were poisonous; I
agree but not for toxicity reasons.
I like ripe raw and cooked tomatoes. They do have a
peculiar alkaloidy taste, which I've gotten over. It took
me decades. I'll note that unripe tomatoes have more of
that taste.
I've tried to get to liking them for ages, but can't get over the
texture or the flavor. Other than those they're fine.
Doesn't matter that much - tomatoes are one of
the foods whose nutritional potential is unlocked
when they're cooked.
