So I have run into some confusion regarding the nutritional information on food labels recently - specifically the differences between products from different countries.
So let's talk Nutrition Information /ck/
Here's my specific example. I live in Canada but visited the US last weekend. While grocery shopping I grabbed some stuff that we have in Canada too but I was surprised to see that things like calorie content were different, even though the product itself was exactly the same.
Pic related, it's one of the things I bought. In Canada these things are 220cal each. But the box I bought in America says that they are 190cal. But they are identical. Same food, same size, same brand, exact same everything. So why the difference?
Do foods have a different screening process or labeling procedure in other countries? Where is the lower calorie count coming from? Are labeling regulations more lax in USA so companies round their totals down to look better? I'm really curious now. Anyway, thanks /ck/

Pics or it didn't happen.
Specifically one of each ND label and each ingredients list.

That is literally not possible.
I did 10 seconds of Googling, and it seems like bars are 42g in the USA and 46g in Canada.

I don't have it on me right this second to take a comparison shot, unfortunately.
But I really have seen this. I like having Quest Bars in my gym bag for example. Even the same bars in the same flavours are different. Cookies and Cream Quest bar in Canada is 210cal. The ones I bought at a GNC in the states? 190.

What spices and herbs do you think are underrated and should be used more often?

Salt. Very underated.

Sumac.

>>8959221
i think they're all very well used really. just depends what you are making... I mean, if you only make Italian food i would imagine that you wouldn't use much lemongrass or turmeric; whereas others who make curries and Asian dishes would. so yea, it all depends on you.

strawberries in season are really great because the grocery store ones invariably taste like wet garbage

There's this place near me run by what seems to be a couple of Arab folks - when you look behind the counter, you can see signage with Arabic on it. (Religious? Dunno.)
Anyway, this place offers fried chicken, burgers, sandwiches, fries, onion rings, that sort of thing - everything except pork products.
They're not bad, either. But I would have expected falafel, gyros, stuff like that.
Do you have a place near you like this?

I walk past it every day. I can't stand the sight of slowly rotating pillar of dry meat being shaved off every 4 hours.

Yeah, there's a cheesesteak/burger/hoagie joint near me; owner is Lybian, speaks Arabic and doesn't serve middle eastern food.
He advertises halal lamb and chicken sandwiches, but also serves bacon burgers.

Hey /ck/! Im making carbonara. I can't afford guanciale or prosciutto so I'm using bacon instead. I have my own chickens so these eggs are ethical. Using jarlsburg and gouda for the cheese topping.

Okay, but don't call it carbonara. That's not what you're making.

Has any non-vegan here tried vegan or vegetarian food and liked it? Did you eat more or was it just a pleasant experience.

A friend of mine who largely avoids eating meat unless it's something exotic cooked me a laksa a couple of months ago which featured jellyfish and century egg. The dish was actually quite nice and the only thing I didn't like was the horrible, spongy soy atrocity masquerading as chicken
>>
I've had veggie burgers that were alright.
The problem isn't that they taste bad, it's that they taste nothing like the burgers they're trying to imitate.
If I'm hungry for a burger, a burger-shaped slab of vegetable might not taste bad, but it'll sure be disappointing.
>>
>>8957996
I am vegetarian and I agree these are pretty good. The Boca brand of chicken tenders are pretty bad, so stay away from them.

Don't.

We have a dog...
Food does not go to waste in our house.
We threw this motherfucker away missing maybe four or five bites.
We bought it cause they were on clearance for like a buck fifty.
The dog would not eat it.

Cast Iron Fags I need your help
>Eat smoked mackerel every few days
>Room mates and landlord hate me for stinking out the house
>Tell me to cook it outside
>No outdoor grill
If I heat up a cast iron pan on the burner then take it outside will it stay hot enough to fry my fish for 5 minutes? Also I'm not supposed to wash it after each use right? How can I remove the fish stank so I can bring it inside?

Okay guys long story short my girlfriend has some weird food fetish where she wraps a certain food around my penis and proceeds to either sick or ride me until it breaks/mushes up and then we try something else. Sometimes she'll eat it. But she wanted to do it with a huge fucking pepper and wouldn't leave me alone so I said whatever let's do it then. Fast forward 2 hours and my dick won't stop fucking burning and I was erect when the chili touched and now I'm not so some of the skin just bunched up and now it hurts even more... What can I rub on it to help? Should I get hard when I do so I could spread it evenly? Mods please don't close in dead ass serious and don't know who else to ask

What does /ck/ bring to work to eliminate hunger throughout the shift?
I usually pack a sandwich and a granola bar, but I decided to go with a bag of trail mix for the week or however long it ends up lasting me. If I have absolutely nothing to bring I just bring a huge travel mug full of coffee
