Centrist take: If you can’t get a decent sear on a gas stove you need to learn how to cook.

          He had a very judgy but supposed to be “funny” video about mocking the song WAP, I.e “wet ass pussy.” In it, he read the lyrics, saying “wet ass p-word,” and stating that his wife, a doctor, told him that if their pussys were that wet, they had a medical condition and should see a doctor. He was trying to be wry, but it just came off very smarmy and like he was introduced to pussy via the song.

          Of course the song is extremely hyperbolic and done for artist license, so old benny the shithead has been mocked mercilessly ever since about how his wife explained dry pussies to him, with the secondary implication being that his own wifes pussy is very dry when they have sex, because hes a repulsive troll.

    I’m just upset they a cow had to die to make a steak that bad. They could have used a cardboard box and saved a cow.

      We joke about my grandma like that, she had this whole process with store bought sausage to remove the salt but then it’s so bland… “she does this and that to the sausage, boil, three times with another thing, remove the casings, and then to finish it off you toss the sausage away and just eat the packaging.”

        I’ve heard the same joke about eating a native bird here: pluck the bird and boil it in a pot with a leather boot. After boiling for four hours remove the water, toss the bird and eat the boot.

    In a gas stovetop I make a beautiful pan-seared, oven cooked steak. And I’m liberal.

    This steak has nothing to do with what it was prepared on, just the moron who ruined good food.

      You see we do things like reading books and learning to do things like cooking food properly. Those concepts are for woke idjits from the snowflake generation.

      I am a bit triggered at the waste of food though, shit looks nasty lol

    • Agree the food comes out great on gas.

      The problem now and the reason why the right is memeing about this is that the gas and stove industries have been lying for years and burning a gas stove in your home is poisonous to everyone in it with benzene gas.

        Yeah, I’ve seen that going around. I’ll wait until there’s some consensus from the scientific community that the use of gas for cooking is indeed bad for the majority of people and not just a problem for those with sensitivities or respiratory issues. We’ve been using gas in homes for such a long time that I don’t know if we could separate out any serious slow to appear negative health consequences from the background noise of all the other things that cause health problems like automotive exhaust and the like.

    Damn. Well, enjoy your disconcertingly pale steak. Try not to get mad cow disease.

    Honestly, why do these assholes regard acts of self-endangerment as “owning the libs?” “I’m gonna run outside without a mask, get COVID, and die a miserable death! That’ll show those commies a thing or three!” Yes, I’m very “triggered” by your easily preventable deaths. Please don’t kill yourself with your own stupidity. I couldn’t go on without your fourth grade insults and desperate, performative machismo. Stop. Please. Oh no.

      What’s the appeal? Meat is gross, but putting that aside why eat it as close to raw as you can get… Always seems like the equivalent of I’ll have my coffee black, like having any cream / sugar or in this case, cooking it, makes less of a statement.

        If you already think meat is gross, how do you expect to understand why someone would like it prepared a specific way?

        That being said, the more rare the meat the more flavor you can taste. If you cook steak too long all you can taste is the seasoning. Raw is too chewy for me, I like rare to medium rare but I’m sure blue rare has even more flavor.

        Also, ordering coffee black is definitely not a statement 😂 I like my coffee black because sugar is poison and I’d rather consume it from pies and ice cream. Milk takes a lot of the coffee flavor away too. If I was drinking 7/11 coffee I would probably need sugar and milk to mask the terrible taste but when you use good coffee beans you should be able to taste it.

        Because red meat is more tender. But searing and cooking give it flavour. Besides health reasons for pork and chicken. Beef can easily be left rae completely in some situations like a steak tartare or seared for just a little 2-3 minutes to create flavour and a crust but leave the juiciness and tenderness there be leaving it more raw.

        As someone that usually drinks black coffee, adding steamed milk for me is usually a texture thing when drinking an cappuccino also dilutes the coffee with something warmer and sweeter, just creates something different then there was in the first place. Exactly the same as I said with the steak tartare vs a smoked brisket or like some stewed meat.

      Gas is better than shitty electric, but induction is better than both shitty electric and good gas.

        Depends on how you define “better”. Shitty electric doesn’t make the fumes burning gas does, unless that gas is hydrogen.

          Shitty electric takes forever to heat up and provides inconsistent heat. Good electric is much quicker and more even, but the heating elements take a long time to cool down. I prefer cooking with gas, personally.

      I have a gas stove and i hate it. The heat wicks up the sides of the pot/pan, making the handles get too hot to touch and also burns any food stuck to the inside above the surface of what else is in the pot. All that lost heat off the sides is incredibly inefficient/wasteful (well i guess not really in the winter as it does contribute to heating the house, but definitely its undesirable in other cases)

      Also is stinky and a pain in the ass to clean.

      I agree broadly, but I have seen some shitty implementations of induction stoves . Specifically one which didn’t have enough heat settings, and when you changed between settings it would turn off for a full 2 seconds before turning on at the new setting. Did this stop me from cooking anything? No. But it was annoying.

      A good induction stove is way better than gas for 99 percent of what most people will ever do at home.

      Nah, charcoal and wood. Everything else is crap.

      Nobody really cares if you cook with gas. However, heating your 4,000 SF home without any insulation during a blizzard to 75F… that’s wasteful.

      The only thing I don’t really like about induction is that I can’t see the energy visibly to judge things like I can an actual flame. If I cooked with a wok more, I might have issues there as well

      Correct, I have not tried an induction stove, and as much as I’d like to, they can be hard to find. Even harder to find if you have a kitchen with a weird layout. I have thousands of options for gas or electric, I have found ONE induction stove in my area and it was a clearance, floor model only item.
