I was making spaghetti and I lost track of time, came back to find it burnt. Initially my reaction was "ohhhhfuckmeintheasshol how am I gonna eat this now?" and then I got to thinking; raw meat has bacteria and shit and you shouldn't eat that, so you cook it to kill all them bugs n shit with heat. So surely, if you burn it to a crisp, you've killed more bacteria, there are less diseases lurking on there, and therefore, burnt food is healthier.
Also, I ate the burnt spaghetti and it was fucking delicious, just the meatballs were a bit crunchy.T

I think it's a question that suits /ck/ better

1) Enjoy your free radicals (cancer).
2) Cooking is more to denature proteins than to kill bacteria

"burned" food has a different structure and is processed differently

this
also tastes like shit and no one gets sicks by handling food properly.

>>8131554
So is too many denatured proteins a bad thing?
>>

burning means oxydizing chemicals in the food.
might as well eat fucking charcoal.
If you're good, you can even burn your food while leaving the inside undercooked.
bruning is not cooking.
>>
>>8131560
No, for example a cooked egg is denatured.
Black/carbonized food and grease is very bad though, that degredation happends much later than denaturation when you "burn" the food.

if you kept your nose out of your paint bucket for five seconds you would've realized that my post was facetious and making fun of OP for his stoner drivel.

He said he "burned" the spaghetti.
I can only assume he's eating pasta out of a can.
Jesus.

You are fucking retarded.
wow

>You are fucking retarded.
How else would you "burn" spaghetti?
If he was making pasta from scratch, and left in in the water too long, first it would turn to mush (not burnt).
If he leaves it in long enough for the water to boil off, it's going to get too brittle to eat.

You're still oxidizing the shit out of your food when you cook it, even if you cook it in a fucking vacuum. There is nothing dangerous about this.
The danger of burnt food comes from the fact that you create a fuckton of harmful compounds, most if not all directly or indirectly linked to free radicals.
>>

And how do you think you make those chemicals? From fucking oxidation you twat.
Burning food causes you to form polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons i.e. good electron acceptors, which promote free radical reactions.
Normal cooking produces a significantly less number of these compounds.
