Thread 1

The Grand Fifth Imperium wrote:srry to be a bit off topic here, but i feel like there should be a thread in General dedicated specifically to talking about food. then we don't need a million and one threads about "Waffles vs. Pancakes" or "Unique eating habits" or "Chick fil a vs McDonalds"...


Indeed! There used to be one, great thread for all food-related material, but then, I CTE'd, and without my constant poll-bumping of the thread, it seems it died out.
Well, not to fear! Thread #2 is here, for all your food related needs! I'll also try to make a weekly poll like the last thread, but that cannot be guaranteed.
If you're not entirely sure what to post, you can use Thread 1 as an example.

I enjoy ingesting a different type of liquid which you did not mention more than all other liquids in the land! You must be a quite unintelligent fellow to not include it in this poll of yours. I cannot believe a person as stupid as yourself can make a poll on this site, or even possess the ability to think. I have lost my faith in humanity after seeing you not include my favorite drink in this poll of yours. Or, perhaps, you are not a human, Mr. Poll Creator. Perhaps your existence is a punishment for our sins, as you attempt to spread your stupidness throughout NationStates. How can we get rid of you? Repentance? Charity? What will we not do to save ourselves from this imbecile unleashed upon the world? I shall state my favorite drink below! That might be the way to rid the world of certain doom from this idiot.

Also, I should note that this is not a poll-based thread. It has a poll which can be discussed about, but the thread is an all-encompassing thread for food; for ALL food-related needs!

Bugs: Edible?

Postby Swintern » Wed Mar 29, 2023 9:32 pm

The greater bug specimen is generally allowed to eat inside of the Swintish Empire; many of the very poor within the state can seldom afford to eat much else; therefore, for the good of the populace, bugs are consumable by law. This only refers to those of the middle class and lower; higher classfolk are disgraced if found eating insects, as it is generally believed to be below their power, wealth, and authority.



The New Empire of Swintern
Hail the Emperor Vaskiy IV! Hail the Lord! Hail Swintern!
Vyuta dri Imperrais Vasskiy IV! Vyuta dri Lanken! Vyuta Svintia!
The New Empire of Swintern is a large country located in the Karstoka region of Pamphlia. It occupies the lands of its indigenous culture. Governing from the capital of Morrionerry, Swintern is an absolute monarchy with the high classes overseeing great control over its lower counterparts.

Well, not to fear! Thread #2 is here, for all your food related needs! I'll also try to make a weekly poll like last thread, but that cannot be guaranteed.

I’ve had silkworms and tarantula. Meh. I wouldn’t make it a lifestyle choice and they aren’t very nutritious in any case.

Deep fried insects and cocoons are actually great. Try them in China, SE Asia and Mexico. Some people in Jiangsu eat maggots and caterpillars, that's not acceptable tho.

Glad to see someone took me up on my suggestion.
As far as bugs are concerned, my opinions depend on two things:
A) do crustaceans (shrimp, lobster, crab, etc.) count as bugs
B) do Keebler's chocolate mint cricket cookies count as bugs

I must say, deep fried grasshoppers are in fact delicious, nice and crunchy, but the little legs tend to get stuck between your teeth.

(BTW, this is not a joke, ie. don't knock it till you've tried it...).

The poison the bug carries...

I'd definitely eat bugs. Correction. I have eaten bugs on many occasions. Sometimes voluntary but sometimes involuntary too.

I should note that this is not a poll-based thread. It has a poll which can be discussed about, but the thread is an all-encompassing thread for food; for ALL food-related needs!

Also, thank you to the mods who cleaned the stuff up!
