Crimes Against Nutrition

How New England do you have to be to consider pineapple “intense”?

Whoa! That was hot salsa! I think I got a bite of some onion! :wink:

(Pineapple on pizza was “invented” in Southern Ontario. Some Italians, and the mayor of Reykjavik, consider this a crime against nutrition, but I agree it is tasty with ham and peppers.)

I have to be careful of interactions with blood thinners.

Fresh pineapple (bromelain) makes my gums bleed.

This is how I would do it back in the day with just Metabolic Drive, Gelatin and hot water.

I didn’t know this was an agreed upon stereotype. I thought since they have Old Bay they were good.

But I did know a guy from Connecticut who only put butter on his sandwiches because mayonnaise “tasted too spicy” for him, so there’s that.

Fair enough. Not too many pizza toppings are worth bleeding gums. Maybe prosciutto if they fry or bake it first…

Sometimes they add spicy stuff to mayonnaise, like eggs.

I’ve made mayo with chili peppercorn oil once, that was indeed…… too spicy :sob:

I have a feeling your bloke from Conneticut was not having chili mayo

You folks need to spend time in North Dakota, where pepper is considered a spice.

Fresh pineapple is the only thing I’ve ever found that I can’t eat. Within a half hour I feel as if I’ve been stabbed in the stomach with a red hot blade, to the extent that sweat pops out on my forehead. That lasts an hour or so, then just stops. I love the stuff, so it took me like 4 episodes to finally stop eating it.

If I eat too much it makes my mouth hurt. But I still love it.

My magnus opus to the ovum.

Behold! The eggs of easter island. Done in sriracha!

Ive eaten ridiculously hot things- ghost pepper sauce, etc.

A great antidote for the super hot- Watermelon juice.

I don’t really mind that. My favorite was pineapple with sriracha. So damn good!

I don’t even mind bleeding a bit.

I just don’t want to be that jagoff who dies from something really stupid that everybody reads and goes “Yep. I always knew there was something wrong with him.”.

.

Definitely prosciutto. :+1:.

This is what motivated me to quit smoking in my 30’s. I honestly didn’t notice any adverse affect from smoking - I was more athletic than most people I knew - but I didn’t want to feel like a fucking idiot when I got lung cancer.

I’ve been dabbling in it again lately, though, because I am a fucking idiot.

Oh Emily… All the work you put into your health and your going with smoking? (Said in a semi-sarcastic tone).

Hot honey is great to add to pizza too.

You are probably just more stressed. Most folks are these days. But smoking is for meat. Maybe cheese and nuts. :wink:

I will not berate you for something I had such a hard time with, but I won’t accept falling on your sword either. Thats too easy.
