I just Googled 'cooked duck' and voila. Maybe my eyesight really is bad, but I can't see too much difference between turkey and duck.

Have you ever been in a supermarket at Christmas, or seen a duck? Turkeys are like, 3 times the size of ducks, they're gargantuan mega-birds.
It's true, it's just getting the time and energy to cook in the first place.
Turkeys come in different sizes, bruh.
I just assumed it was duck as it was a relatively small bird. Stupid logic, I know.
Weekends man all about them. In the week I am a lazy cook.
NEXT WEEK ON BRIT GAF, DUCK VS GOOSE.

I like some Chinese cooking and I love crispy duck and pancakes but hoisin sauce tastes like sauce cordial, it's far too concentrated and sweet, like it should be lightly drizzled over a dessert not meat.
Chinese cooking and their penchant for loads of salt or loads of sugar is so gross, I don't get it. It often tastes like a small child has sabotaged a perfectly nice meal to me.

never been to china but the sugar is probably to appeal to western palettes.
I'm gonna sound like one of those annoying gap year students but the food I had in China was nothing like English Chinese food.

Everyone is truly shirtybin here lately.
Chinese food is generally westernised over here isn't it? I think the actual stuff is a different ball game. Guy in uni halls who was from China ate very healthily!

I cook my pork for longer than that, and in coke or cider.

I had the pork in coke thing once and couldn't make up my mind about it. Pork in cider sounds like a good combo though.

The pork in coke worked really well for us, and we made a Jack Daniels gravy to go with it.
I think it was pear cider we used and that worked great as well, we used that for the gravy.
slow roast pulled pork, god damn right it's yummy!
pork + root beer + stubbs BBQ sauce = heaven

Yeah, I was really referring to the disgusting, toy food-looking slop you get from most takeaways, some people are like "mmm, it's so good", and I'm like, "well it's sure is salty, the sauce is like syrup and why is the meat illiminous pink?"
But yeah, home cooked Chinese food or eating at a decent restaurant can be amazing, it's just I've never known a cuisine where it's nearly always vile from takeaways. It's uncanny.
Fuck, that sounds lush.
I'de rather take florescent chicken over a bland roast tbh.

Never tried cooking it in coke before but, damn, that sounds delicious. Gonna try that. Slow-roasted pulled pork is the God of all roasts.

So guys I've had a thought.
If someone has bad genes and can't tolerate wheat, could they get triggered by eating duck if that duck had been given fistfuls of bread at the lake before it died?

I'm no scientist but I'm going to say no.
The duck, however, having carb loaded on bread would make an excellent marathon runner.
Again, I'm no scientist.

Gotta agree with this too, I've never understood this obsession with single ingredients in little individual piles on a plate with a few slices on meat and some gravy.
It's like a favourite meal for people with no imagination.

My mate Ash eats each part of her roast individually in reverse order of preference, so she ends up eating the roast potatoes and meat last.
She has the table etiquette of a five year old, bless her!
Ash... Ketchum?
You don't put ketchup on a roast!

You just make me Google something Pokeymanz related on the work wifi.
I may as well have looked up child porn.
Wait, you're saying that isn't how people normally eat their meals?

If you don't like a good Roast, you're doing Brit-Life wrong. Fajitas or a great curry are always a better option though.
Did my first day of genuine Facilitating. It was cracking. I'm thinking build up the experience then move into a field that I care about instead of education. Transferable skills FTW!

E eats her meals like that. It's really cute.
Rock!
You have no sympathy. I'm running on about 5 hrs sleep over the past few days, caused by things a hell of a lot less fun than drinking.
Actually. Have a bit of sympathy. I can't help it! Hope you feel better soon

I don't do this, instead I organise my consumption as I engorge foodstuffs so that there is an equal amount of each constituent meal part remaining at all times. So if I have a meat and potatoes meal with a 1:3 meat/potatoes ratio I will purposefully focus on the potatoes to equalize and restore balance to the foods.
"Practically a Polanski!"
*shudders*
just laughed aloud in the office, whoops, me "working" cover blown.

yay sympathy, thanks! I don't feel awful, just feel really lazy.
Hope you feel better after your brain explosion yesterday.
I had a drunken/comedown anxiety battle last night that kept me up till 3am
I hate new jobs, having to meet new people YUCK!

I flick the lightswitch off and on four times (never three, never five) between each mouthful, and wash my hands three times whenever one part of the meal (say, chips) runs out.

Whoever said they don't like roast dinners has clearly never had a well cooked roast dinner - there's a reason it's the nation's favourite food.
Daww cutey cute cute.
I sort of feel better maybe. I'm too tired to really feel anything. Just wanna go home and go into the happy land of videogames.
Yeesh. Ok have another extra sympathy. Hangovers meh. Anxiety I can empathise with.
Just calling out all the mothers and fathers today....
Jesus. Good call though, Y'all should be ashamed
Yeah I know that feeling, Get home put some games on relax and get an early night.
YEAHHHH It wasn't fun, but at the same time my fault for being drunk/high, it's all going to be fine, I just need to control my shit for a while, as I know it gets to me something rotten.
Edit I just bought the MGS V collectors edition.... Now we wait..
Take that back!
