Stryke's Weapons Grade Chili Con Carne

2x cans of Deseret Beef Chunks
2x cans of Dark Red Kidney Beans
1x can of Tomato Sauce
1x can of Petite diced tomatoes with sweet onions
1/4 diced yellow onion
2 Tbsp. chopped dried onions
1 Tbsp. crushed red pepper
1 Tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground pepper

Put everything that comes in a can save for the tomato sauce into a medium pan and cook at 250-300 until the beef chunks are browned, add the spices, stir until the spices are mixed in.
Let everything cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the tomato sauce. Put on low heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.

sidenote: I like my things to have a kick, so I added about four splashes of El Yucateco Habanero Hot Sauce to mine.

I’m scared, what happened that you had to say this?

i had no idea the human butthole had tastebuds.

Interesting... tastebuds that your body produces...

Laksa is 1000000000% goodness

Agree, also there are a ton of a different kind of laksa (e.g. laksa Singapore, laksa penang, laksa sarawak, lakso, thai laksa, laksa bogor, laksa tangerang, etc)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laksa

Vancouver had this excellent laksa place; I do miss it

When I went to Singapore my two favorite orders were laksa and hainan chicken rice

protip: make sure you wash your hands after eating spicy foods before going to the bathroom and wiping.

The burning and painful sensations associated with capsaicin result from its chemical interaction with sensory neurons. Capsaicin, as a member of the vanilloid family, binds to a receptor called the vanilloid receptor subtype 1 (TRPV1).[34] First cloned in 1997, TRPV1 is an ion channel-type receptor.[35] TRPV1, which can also be stimulated with heat, protons and physical abrasion, permits cations to pass through the cell membrane when activated. The resulting depolarization of the neuron stimulates it to signal the brain. By binding to the TRPV1 receptor, the capsaicin molecule produces similar sensations to those of excessive heat or abrasive damage, explaining why the spiciness of capsaicin is described as a burning sensation.

tl;dr ... The active ingredient in hot peppers acts directly on the nerves in your body that cause pain. Nothing to do with taste or flavor.

"Budholes" ...

[Terre Septentrionale]

Pea soup should be added in the poll choices because it's the best kind of soup!

I’m imagining this relatively smooth pale soup with generous servings of fish inside, maybe add a bit of tomatoes and tofu?

Sweet and sour pork/chicken is really the only Chinese food I really like.

That being said, I do like crab rangoon, but I can only eat one or two at a time (like hush puppies).

Ah yes, Crab Rangoon ... sounds tasty. Why would you eat shoes?

Hush puppies
