Unity in Diversity: Indian Festivals and Culinary Traditions
Dev Deepawali in Varanasi is marked by rows of illuminated “Diya” symbolizing the victory of good over evil. Celebrated with fervor, families engage in cooking traditional dishes, enhancing their bonds. While modern lifestyles challenge home-cooking traditions, the festive spirit remains strong, reflecting India’s cultural diversity and unity through shared culinary experiences. Rows of “Diya”…

[guy who put a lot of thought into fantasy cuisines based on regional ingredients + cooking methods + class voice] i'm SO normal about food you guys have no idea
#this is peasant food but not impoverished food#so they get a little bit of variety but admittedly some of this is Special Occasions Food#they're in a primarily grassland biome w harsh winters dry summers and high winds and would have limited access to any kind of baking#so most food is steamed boiled or stewed!#there's also a large focus on keeping sheep so the peasant class would consume primarily sheep products#the kingdom specializes in textiles#food#king drew this#worldbuilding#*small correction the south has dry summers the interior and northern region do not#dnd

Healing my inner child by eating whatever I want whenever I want
#inner child#healing inner child#my dad either starved me or shoved food I hated down my throat#gave me designates times I could and couldn’t eat too#and was banned from leaving the dinner table unless I had finished said food I hated#or to heat it up in the microwave#he literally sat with me for hours to make sure#he’s like those almond mums in a way#wouldn’t let me have sugar unless it was a special occasion#and only water#I think that’s like#the least insane thing he’s ever done

I'm celebrating the NY Yankees win and Ben Rice's history making day by eating some NY pizza. I only break this out for special occasions, and I think what Ben Rice did today is a very special occasion!!! I'm very happy for him and for me because he made history and I get NY pizza 🍕 😋 😊 doesn't that look good? I love the pizza that I make, but there's nothing that compares to a real slice of NY pizza 🍕
#Ben Rice#ny yankees#ny pizza#special occasion#celebrate#love#happiness#thank you#sharing#baseball#let's go yankees#sports#food#pizza#Bronx Bombers#ny baseball#happy for us both#record breaking

can we come together as a community and be honest with ourselves .. because i’m tired of seeing everything turned into an egg roll. not everything needs to be an egg roll
#i also don’t like how asian cuisine (which i am reducing down to ‘asian cuisine’ to make a point; i know it’s not one thing) is currently#being popularized into popular cuisine in a way i don’t like. just as mexican food became trendy with millennials i feel that asian cuisine#is being boiled down and capitalized upon for gen z#in a way i don’t like. because it doesn’t come with increased cultural awareness or understanding it’s just ‘oh my god i loveeeee#kimchi and butter chicken yummmm’#not that we shouldn’t share cuisine or culture or anything; just that i wish it came with more respect and history#cuisine is very informed by historical events and is an excellent indicator of cultural change#and i wish that was in the common awareness rather than just treating asian people like they’re someone you want to learn to cook from. may#be get to know them personally before you ask for their grandmothers kimchi recipe when they are not korean like. augh#also i don’t like how people think chinese food is poor people food and not high quality and full of cultural significance. u can’t say you#love asian culture and their spirituality and their food and then hate chinese people and make racist comments ab them#ik it’s in idiot american nature to be like AHHHH CHINA!!!! but stop. stop .#just like people don’t respect mexicans more now after their cuisine was popularized i don’t think asian people will gain more respect eithe#because people aren’t after you or your culture they’re after what’s on your table on special occasions#because no one wants peasant food. i saw someone post their rice and beans with egg the other day and the comments were so hateful like lol#u don’t know mexicans if you think a normal ass meal is gross or something that’s just how people eat normally#anyway. sorry for yapping i just love food#lmk if anything i said was inappropriate i am not exempt from being an idiot american#knight rambles

i miss country style iced coffee
#it was such a comfort 2 me but ours closed down#also one of the Only iced coffees w milk that i have ever liked#other ones for some reason set off migraines#&& tim horton's tastes like evil tea 2 me#their food always tasted like it had been left out for 2 days n i think it probably had but God.. .their iced coffee..#it had such a good consistency#their bagel sandwiches were a huge part of my childhood tho#it was like our Big Treat to go get them#only on special occasions like our birthdays n days where my mom was happy for some reason#altho. i remember once one of my siblings left a half eaten one n the back of our car in the summer and it .#spawned maggots#imagine searing hot puke toned beige leather seats w maggots

I was at the grocery store and encountered the cheese aisle and remembered you said you love cheese….we, the people, would like Venus Cheese Insight
hi mino i do in fact love cheese!! i’ve been avoiding eating it for about 5 years because it gives me acne but i do give in occasionally… my biggest exceptions are for dishes like birria tacos, palak paneer, and a very nice mac n cheese. it’s also in a lot of desserts…cheesecake……..
i like those super cheesey homemade 5 cheese macs; i won’t sacrifice my skin for velveeta cup mac. it has to be worth it.
as for snack cheese i tend to cave if i see smoked gouda or havarti on a charcuterie board. nibbles on that like a little rat. i have not found a plant based cheese that’s worth anything buuut violife makes a good cream cheese that i get a lot for bagels n such 👍🏻
#and like sometimes i want a cheeseburger not a hamburger#it’s just. so much better#I LOVE MOZZARELLA STICKS TOO i get them for special occasions#i’m also a huge taco lover and they aren’t the same without cotija#the one cheese i truly hate is swiss. gross#this is quite a long cheese rant for 9am#what cheeses or cheese dishes do you like mino ? :3#msg: mino <3#cw food

Obsessed with the fact that burgers and pie are Dean's comfort foods because they are available anywhere you go. He lacked permanence in his childhood but burgers and pie were consistent.
#more consistent than his father at least#fuck john winchester#plus its like a special occasion good thing to be able to afford to eat food like that#spn#dean winchester
