  • there's a type of brainworm unique to many anglos where they have to be as special and different as possible when there's LITERALLY NOTHING THERE

    "hmmm.....I could try learning about or even promoting idk one of the cultures of Africa or India or China (or indigenous Australian, American etc cultures) with thousands of years of tradition that literally nobody outside of those continents even knows exists, but nah I'm going to take sushi and call it Australian because I'm a special snowflake and I'm jealous that the other anglo settlers across the pacific have more clout "

  • dude that's just sushi

    this is the biggest reach I've seen since...well a bunch of mayo criminals reached australia

    this entire thing just feels like settlers being butthurt that they a) have none of the history/tradition of the old world and b) unlike america, don't even have any recently found pop culture relevance to offset the former

    There's plenty of Aboriginal and even some trivial white Australian culture, claiming a certain shape of sushi is not that (not even Americans do this, and the few that do "Detroit pizza" are rightfully made fun of and bullied)

    Australian sushi is a thick hand roll made from half a standard sheet of nori. Its shape is distinct from Japanese temaki hand rolls, which are often cone-shaped, as well as from futomaki thick rolls, which are similar in shape but usually served sliced.

    so it's literally just unsliced sushi lol. It's not even like some characteristic ingredient, like with California Rolls and Philadelphia rolls using avocado/cream cheese (which are def not Japanese)

  • Personally I like Fahr better because there's more resolution

    I'm also really good at guessing the current weather, often to within 1 degree F and 3% humidity

    Also Fahrenhiet 0 just feels more practical to me. Like 20 F isn't THAT cold for me, but that's equal to -7 C. In Fahrenheit if I see a negative number I know it's really fucked outside. A negative Celsius number is often just a "typical" winter day and nothing to care about. Of course this in itself is very eurocentric temperate-centric, same with all the weather map colors that shade in 75F as a "warm" temperature with the color red--like that's just an extremely comfortable temperature and should be something like green.

    It's pretty vibes based--but the vibality could be improved

  • deer - clean but mineraly, also lean

    goat - like lamb but more barn flavor

    alligator - like chicken pork fish

    frog legs - like chicken fish

    goat testes - like the white of an egg but kinda musty (would not eat again)

    snails - chewy

    crawfish - tastes like a "muddier" lobster

    shark fin soup - had it once in a restaurant decades ago, it was kinda gelatinous but slightly sticky

    sea urchin - I didn't like this, but the ones I've seen in sushi restaurants look different (paler) than the ones I see fresh from the ocean, so it might be a freshness thing

    eel - fatty and denser meat similar to the texture of mahi mahi

    wagyu - I've had a few slices of this before, and I find it overrated (I find steak in general overrated). However I had it seared on a pan and it was thinly sliced already so it might've just been too nuked to taste good
