Whereas I don't think soy is (commonly) subject to any similar processes (though I'm not an expert). I’m no expert either to be honest. But it does feel all this meat substitution craze will end up going from one extreme or another. Edited February 10, 2020 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the thing. Good pasta makes it not so. Good pasta elevates it so that both the pasta and the sauce do the thing. Result, ultra yum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The teacher was doing some sort of colour theory thing and said that black and white weren't colours but shades. I had to tell hm he was talking bollocks, I couldn't help myself. I was always told that white was a combination of all colours, and black was an absence of colour. Although I think that was in reference to the visible spectrum of light, rather than pigmentation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will make it easier to eat junk food and be fat as a vegetarian or Vegan. But aside from that not much. Any bad health from eating Soy would likely be more than offset by the benefits of not eating meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

il_serpente Posted February 11, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 11, 2020 Reminds me of Ambrose Bierce's definition of clari(o)net, in the Devil's Dictionary, for which bagpipes could easily be substituted: Clarionet n. An instrument of torture operated by a person with cotton in his ears. There are two instruments that are worse than a clarionet — two clarionets. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Whatever was a cheap multipack near the tills at Virgin. I didn't really care. I did have a mate that would only copy stuff onto unopened TDK. Also if he did you a compilation he removed the tabs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Pretty sure I had all of the above but mostly TDK D-90/180 and my favorite stuff I'd pay more for SA or SF or similar and get a screwdriver to knock the blank out at the top to stop me feckin brother tapping over em. Massive pet hate was being so careful to write the song list on the cover and making mistakes and having to tippex it out, damn it, I hated that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
