Gluten free ladies and gentlemen I want your opinion! (Well I mean, anyone can answer, you don't have to be gluten free, but I imagine it's mostly gluten free people eating these. Oh, probably vegans too)

My opinion under the cut

I didn't like them originally but they're often really cheap at the discount store I go to so I keep getting them and now I like them, it just took awhile to get over the texture and burnt cardboard flavor. Very rarely am I willing to pay full price though. Also, I didn't know they had bowties!!!!! I want those!!!!! Also, their "alphabet" noodles only have As, Bs, Ns, and Zs because for whatever reason they only care that they can spell their name while the rest of us have to suffer 🙄

Used banza pasta and accidentally only had 1/4 of the mushrooms required for the pasta but added extra spinach and it was still great. Added extra garlic plus nutritional yeast to the sauce. It was very mushroomy but fun it was creamy and good overall!

speaking of food-related categorical slapfights: I just found out today that you cannot sell cauliflower rice in the US state of Arkansas (and only Arkansas) because legally "rice" has to be one of three specific plants (wild rice included) and rather than make special Arkansas-specific packaging, distribution just pulled out.

Saw a new brand of gluten free noodles in the store the other day made with zucchini flour and I thought "hey, I have zucchini flour, if these are tasty I could make my own" so I bought them and I never thought you could get anything worse than banza yet here we are. The flavor is similar to banza (that being burnt cardboard) but the texture was just all kinds of indescribable wrong

Kingdom of Kongo

The Kingdom of Kongo (14-19th century CE) was located on the western coast of central Africa in modern-day DR of Congo and Angola. Prospering on the regional trade of copper, ivory, and slaves along the Congo River, the kingdom's wealth was boosted by the arrival of Portuguese traders in the late 15th century CE who expanded even further the slave trade in the region. Kongo kings were converted to Christianity but relations with the Europeans deteriorated as each side attempted to dominate the other. Civil wars and defeats to rival neighbouring kingdoms finally saw the Kongo state collapse in the early 18th century CE. The Portuguese reinstalled the position of the Kongo monarchs, and the state limped on in name only well into the 19th century CE but the kingdom's days as the strongest power in west-central Africa were now but a distant memory.

Formation & Territory

Located on the western coast of central Africa and south of the Congo River (formerly known as the Zaire River), the kingdom arose in the late 14th century CE following the alliance of several local principalities which had been in existence since the second half of the first millennium CE. Kongo, dominated by Bantu-speaking peoples, had its capital at Mbanza Kongo - known to the Kongolese as Banza, meaning 'residence of the king' - which was located on a fertile and well-watered plateau just below the western end of the Congo River. The kingdom expanded its territory further by a gradual process of military conquest, probably motivated above all by a desire to acquire slaves. At its peak in the 15th and 16th century CE, the kingdom controlled some 240 km (150 miles) of the coast from the Congo River in the north to just short of the Cuanza River in the south, and spread some 400 km (250 miles) into the interior of central Africa up to the Kwango River.
