For context, my wife is always criticizing how I don’t add enough salt to the dishes I cook. I also have no tats. She does.

But at least you can always add more salt lol

    I’m a white dude with no tattoos, but I have this argument all the time with my family. “You can add hot sauce and salt afterward for yourself!” That’s not how this works Susan. That’s not how any of this works. All of cooking is chemistry and physics! And get over it! If I’m cooking I’m using salt and guajillio peppers!

      “Tattoos. Coke. And chronic stress. These were the ingredients chosen to create the perfect line cooks. But Head Chef Marco accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction: Chemical Gay.”

      Eating too much salt is not healthy and throwing spicy peppers when the one that are going to eat don’t handle spicy is just being an asshole tbh.

        It’s normal when I’m making fucking chili Susan! And there’s a difference between too much salt and adding the appropriate amount of salt.

        And research has shown that the most effective way to not have problems with too much sodium in the blood/high blood pressure is to drink more fucking water.

        And the person that complains to me about the salt levels in my food? A) didn’t pay for the fucking food and B) drinks 12 fucking diet Dr peppers a day because “they are healthier.” So fuck em!

        Fuck being healthy at this point tbh, I just want to have a good time until I die, we’re all fucked anyways so what’s even the point, I get to suffer longer in old age from the climate wars? Great.

          As someone with dietary gout I’d say be careful what you wish for. You can suffer for a long time, non-mortal, with loads of fucking useless pain.

            Gout is largely genetic. You can eat like shit and have all the gout-y foods you want if you’re not genetically predisposed to it. Your point still stands though. I don’t have first-hand experience thankfully, but being fat and out of shape, diabetic, etc., etc., etc., does not look fun.

            No offense to you of course, but it just looks miserable from the outside.

              Thanks doctor, but in my case it isn’t genetic. Now go be a doctor somewhere else please with your 5-minute Googly knowledge. Fucker.

          Cool? The context is cooking for other people, if they don’t think the same as you you are just being an asshole.

            I’m sorry, I wasn’t really thinking about the context, I’m just in a bit of a dark mood at the moment. Thank you for your reply. Much love
