you know what i think is really cool about dungeon meshi? the fact that it really handles the whole 'how our food is made' so gracefully. in this day and age, we've become so disconnected from how our food is produced and distributed that the thought of how our food is obtained brings disgust to many people (and for the big industry farms, it honestly should! but im referring to our existence as omnivores in the food chain). marcille acted ridiculous whenever the thought of killing a monster for food is brought up, but honestly, she's a great model for how many people nowadays react whenever they have to truly think about what they are consuming/are brought to a meat farm.
senshi shows the characters (and us, the audience) about the process of making food in a respectful, genuine way to the creatures he has used to produce nourishing meals. by explaining the nutrition and benefits of each creature, he creates and healthy relationship between the consumers and the meal they have. the show really brings a new dimension of respect for each of our meals. truly the bob ross/marie kondo of cooking.
eine umschlaggestaltung, die klar vor augen führt, wie es wohl manchmal auf karl wilhelm diefenbachs - dem "kohlrabiapostel" - tisch zur erntezeit ausgesehen haben mag. passendes motiv, simple umschlaggestaltung. schlicht und einfach gelungen. (rezension zum roman im vorigen beitrag)
Calling vegetarian/veganism a “white people thing” as some fucking racist bullshit lmao
I am Afro-caribbean and Indian. Firstly India has the highest vegetarian population in the world, and in the Caribbean the rastafari have their whole ital movement/diet - which my Jamaican father is a massive believer in.
Y’know what other countries have massive populations of vegetarians and vegans? Mexico. Taiwan. Ethiopia. The fuck do you mean it’s a “white thing”?
honestly this whole thing must have been so funny for cc Zedaph and Tango though. Haven't seen your online friend in ages and you finally get to meet up to go on holiday for two weeks together. One week later you both go to the same charity LAN party and make each other eat terrible sandwiches
