Hi friend, I propose you try an experiment: post a small handful of anonymous comments on the Internet, try to make them benign as possible but casually slip in an acknowledgement that you are vegan. Something along the lines of “God that recipe looks amazing, but I think I might swap out the beef broth for veggie broth as I am vegan” like I said the point of this experiment is to say something completely as benign and inoffensive as possible.

Once you post sit back and wait for the responses to roll in. You will likely find that while not every time, it is incredibly common for people to send you pictures of bacon, and an abundant of angry responses to the mere offhand mention of the word.

I sincerely wish it was a straw man fallacy, but it unfortunately is a exceedingly common response to the word.

Hey non-vegan, fun fact: No one really cares when you tell them eating plants are more efficient.

Common responses include “bAc0Nnnnnn!” and “I’m gonna eat two times the amount of meat to make your efforts useless”.

Yes, they are a great source of insoluble fiber.

I’m not saying we should have a constitutional amendment preventing children of ex presidents from running, but I am saying we as a society need to stop caring about a family name and start caring about ideas.

That may be true and all but I take it you didn’t read the article, because that not what it was about.

They polled people and those who are regularly vote in past elections tend to be pro Biden, those whom hadn’t voted in recent elections tended to be pro Trump.

Which is ironic because if everyone just got out and voted we might just have a send Trump presidency on our hands. I could be wrong, but I suspect that’s the opposite of what you are thinking would happen.

Yes the outside goes brown, but the inside slows down it’s ripening process. Eventually they will all go to mush, but you can keep them at peak ripeness for a few days longer by putting them in the fridge.

Then again most people won’t eat a banana if it has a single brown spot on it, so I’m probably wasting my breath by telling people they can prevent food waste by eating discolored but perfectly ripe food.

I’m pretty sure that’s a stock image so I don’t think that’s a pic of anyone’s legit fridge.

But to answer your question, you can keep bananas on the counter until they reach your preferred level of ripeness and then put them in the fridge to slow down the ripening process so you have a few more days to eat them before they turn to complete mush. I do it all time to ensure I always have bananas around at my preferred level of ripeness.

Can you elaborate on why this is healthier? I’ve never heard this before.

Wait. What happened? Any chance you could link to the video/YouTuber for context because that sounds nuts.

I mean don’t get me wrong I’m sure someone in the US does this, but as someone from there I’ve literally never heard of anyone doing such until this post.

Okay I’m interested, care to list a few projects with looking into?
