That is truly wild to me. I’m the exact opposite. If I’m the only one, I have no motivation to cook - I’ll just order food or graze until I’m full. If there are other people I’m suddenly very interested in making dinner. But perhaps that’s a result of me living alone
Wait, but cooking for one sucks. Cooking for 10 sucks harder, but cooking for 2-4 is better than for 1 imo, unless you want to eat the same dinner a few nights in a row
Oh hey no worries, just writing down the things I’ve realized for others so they don’t get stuck! Yeah agreed, deep links to other shortcuts should have a way to install those dependencies
Exactly! I almost said something to that effect but decided my comment was getting a little long. God just left figuring out science to all these nerds he created 😂
I know this is just a meme, but I’ll share something I recently learned since I find it fascinating.
The oceans started out as freshwater! Water evaporated from them, rained down as freshwater and formed into rivers and streams, and the process of flowing picked up trace amounts of salt from the ground and riverbeds. These rivers eventually dumped their ever-so-slightly salty water into the ocean. Then, the tiny tiny tiny bit salty ocean evaporated some pure water out, leaving less water - meaning the remaining water just got a little bit saltier in comparison. This process repeated for millions of years and those tiny increments resulted in the very salty oceans we have now.
I legitimately had never heard this in my life, and my dad is a doctor. Thank you for informing me and sending me down that particular discovery rabbit hole
It’s extremely high in saturated fat and salt, and so should be eaten sparingly. That’s not to say it can’t be a part of a balanced diet, but even a small portion provides a huge chunk of your daily requirements for each of those two, as well as for calories.
Edit: Removed reference to dietary cholesterol, as this has little to no impact on health
In general I disagree with you, but I think it’s definitely fair to say that’s been the case on Lemmy so far
