I subscribed to all sorts of newsletters, and at least one was dinosaur specific. I would also write professors at local colleges with questions and usually get a response.
Also worked at the library and could order just about any book available. At that point most libraries would order books if they didn’t have them already.
But mostly newsletters and science journals until BBS became more common and user friendly when we first started having available computers.
Well dust is cheaper than pocket sand so…
Yeah. I would totally get this ink if someone wanted to practice. No cover up needed.
At one point I had what we called the commuter chain saw. Battery operated with a 6in bar. Kept it in the side trunk pocket. Only need it once or twice a year, but it beats hiking to the house and carrying a full one back. Especially since trees don’t fall across the road during nice weather.
Minecraft just moved to an official site recently
It just has quinoa in it. There are lots of other ingredients as well.
I would bet money that most people who hate the idea of a “quinoa” patty don’t eat quinoa and likely don’t even know how to pronounce it.
I tell meat eaters and vegetarians the same thing about this.
“Do not compare this to the best meat hamburger you ever had. Instead pretend its a completely new food that you’ve never tried.”
Treat it like a protein option and stop trying to force it to be just like something else. It is very similar to meat in many ways, but it isn’t meat. I don’t consume much advertising so I don’t know if the companies are selling it and saying that it’s indistinguishable.
It’s not “fake”, it just isn’t “meat”.
Oh yes it does have enough salt to stand on its own. I never add salt to either Beyond or Impossible brands. I might add other seasoning if I’m trying to hit a flavor profile (liquid smoke, cajun spices, curry, etc).
You can just plop it out as-is and it’ll cook up nicely. Just don’t squish all the liquid out of it. I’ve had some nasty versions because people get away with poor cooking skills with reql meat and these don’t tolerate the same abuses.
Even if you don’t mind, the longer you give up meat the less interesting it is as a flavor.
I think there’s a curve to this.
When I first became vegetarian there were no fake meat options. If you got something that looked or tasted like meat it was because there was meat in it. Gross and nobody wanted that.
But after 20+ years being vegetarian, it’s REALLY nice to have some other options. I still enjoy a garden burger or black bean burger if it’s the only non-meat option but I can’t remember the last time I bought it in the store. The rise in popularity of vegetarian foods and all the fad diets have made it so there’s tons of options now.
My meat eating friends all love both Beyond and Impossible. A few actually prefer it to a standard burger.
Now if we can just teach restaurants how to cook them properly…
In my experience, people tend to not want things that don’t benefit them directly.
If they don’t use the bike lanes they don’t want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.
