Why is it that everything on this platform is about Linux, Star Trek and beans?

Hey, the Golden Globes is in January and the Oscars are in March, and I really, really want to be a winner instead of a nominee this year, can you blame me?

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

When you do win, you should take a selfie on stage and only post it here.

Just to fuck with everybody.

[-] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

But... Lemmy is still too small right now, and the longer I wait, the funnier it gets, right?

We sometimes talk about not pooping...

Well, have I got a solution for you. Have you ever heard of beans?

[-] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Are they real beans that taste sweet or sweats that look like beans?

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 year ago

Red Bean Paste. It's often sweetened and used as a filling in a lot of Japanese pastries and desserts.

[-] LeadEyes@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Ya'll are missing out. Mochi with red bean paste is amazing. It's about the sweet and savory combination. Pretty similar to how halva works.

Hmm, maybe somewhere in between?

Not when I was stocking them. People got sooooooooooooooooo mad that they couldn't find the "beans".

No, no this can't be it!

Wow it's so beautiful I had to google Asturias to confirm it's real.

American: Beans with your eggs and bacon? Disgusting.

[-] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Grits are mostly a southern thing. That said, they are absolutely awful IMO. I'd sooner try British beans with my breakfast.

Off topic, but yesterday I tried a tamale for the first time. Apparently they're a common Christmas food in Mexico, so my boss brought some to our party. The first bite or two were strange (as a very picky US-American), but then it was really good! 10/10 would recommend and all that

Best use of my pressure cooker*! Bulk black and pinto beans, 40m in the cooker with water and salt, then onto the stove with sauteed onions and garlic, a fair amount of oil, apple cider vinegar, pickled jalapeno or two, spices... absolutely fantastic with some rice. And our toddler loves it too.

*Instant Pot, but pressure cooker sounds more... haute cuisine.

[-] DeathWearsANecktie@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

Baked beans are top tier, tasty and good for protein. Also good for farting.

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 11 points 1 year ago

British people also have mashed peas as their guacamole-but-not.

[-] chumbalumber 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

And yet if a fancy restaurant does pea puree, people are all over it.

Mushy peas are made from a specific variety (marrowfat) that were selectively bred to be softer and have a nicer texture when pureed. People are just snobby about it, baked beans, and food like it because it's working class food, without being fetishised 'exotic' working class food.

Beans (The java + spring kind)

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

And then there's Southern American, Beans, hamhock, bacon, onions, cornbread. Amazing meal in the winter.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Actually accurate given the end result of this episode.

Mexican beans pale in comparison the majesty of the British baked bean.

[-] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

Maybe if you've only had Mexican food made in Britain? Baked beans are good but relatively one dimensional. In Mexico, beans, rice, and corn are the staples of most meals. They're eating them at breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Children have mashed beans and rice as their first solid food.

Do you think British people eat baked beans with every meal? They do in Mexico. They obviously make them in better and more varied ways.

Corn is the same. I prefer the pale non-sweet corn from Mexico much more.

Same thing with rice.

[-] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Then there's beans, Québec maple style.

It's similar to British baked beans, but baked with lard and maple syrup.

Nothing can match that.

[-] Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Having lived in the UK and near the US southern border, they’re both great. Charro and frijoles are sublime, and Heinz baked beans are a superb side dish for potato or meat.

I still can’t enjoy sweet BBQ beans though, Bush’s just tastes like corn syrup with fiber blobs 🤮
