You may fascinate a woman with a piece of cheese 🧀

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 28 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I am not a woman, but I would be fascinated too

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 23 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Fun fact: if you are ever on a plane with a crying baby take a slice of cheese and carefully place it on the babies face. The parents will be so happy with you for calming the baby.

I read that on Reddit at some point. It seems like solid advise.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Roquefort works best.

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Do you need to use Elmer's glue so it doesn't slide off?

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 14 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm a man, but... what kind of cheese?

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Tempting, yes. Add some variety and I'm in. I didn't have Epoisses in a while, and I'd love a good Brie. Taleggio! Oh god, I'm so hungry :-(

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Époisses is really good with a tawny port. At first glance it seems like a flavor mismatch as the port is quite strong, but it conjures up a magical honey like aroma, which is uncanny.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Bank holiday in Germany prevents me from buying more cheese right now. All I have left is some Appenzell and Gorgonzola. Sheep's or goat's cheese as well. I have to check, but I think there's some port in my poison vault as well.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ah, us swamp Germans don't let ~~bank~~ Christian holidays interfere with capitalism that often :p.

Another cheese tip, but one that's hard to get outside of burgundy, is Cîteaux. A really unique take on reblochon, that has a sharp, tangy note in it. I always pick that up when travelling through there.

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Labor Day, so no labor at all.

I think I had Cîteaux before, but I'm not sure. Whenever I'm in France I throw idiotic amounts of money at their dairy industry. And buy all the Belgian beer I can carry.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Your a person of great taste. If you read a bit of Dutch, I'd recommend this book:

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

💖 The bit I can read is just the overlap and similarity. But it seems there's an English version I have to check out. Thanks for the recommendation!

[–] flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 months ago

I'm an uncultured swine and I'd listen to/read the two of you talking about things all day.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 40 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But the chicken looks like shit in a vase after like 1 day whether you water it or not.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Rookie mistake, you forgot to take the meat off and bleach the bones. Sure, it's a lot of work, but a glass vase full of chicken bones is a time-honored legacy.

[–] JoShmoe@ani.social 33 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Don’t you mean get “Us” a rotisserie chicken?

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 42 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You stay away from my chicken!

[–] JoShmoe@ani.social 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Just hear me out, what if instead it was our chicken?

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 42 points 4 months ago (2 children)
[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 months ago

They could have made him look more Staliny.

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 19 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I’d be picking them bones, know what I’m saying?

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago

Or you can get her a hotdog combo and still have $3.50 left to spend for yourself.

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 12 points 4 months ago

or, like, a whole egg

[–] tang999@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Just don't eat the chicken on the way home. You're asking for trouble.

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 4 months ago

As an AroAce women I think the choice is very obvious :3

(Especially if garlic bread is a side dish with the chicken and maybe a salad)

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I can go out into a field and pick a whole cute looking bucket of flowers. Chicken it is.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

In that case, do both. Cause I’m already counting on chicken.

[–] Toneswirly@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Or get a chicken bake, a hot dog and a soda and still have money left over.

Edit: I just went to costco and their chicken bakes are 3.99 not 2.99 😭

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The flowers?

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Also those Costco chickens are way better than regular grocery store chickens from like Safeway or whatever. They’re way bigger and juicier, I think they’re brined or something. It’s like other stores aren’t even trying.

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Got to admit, Costco product are always A class products.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I like how this users history is just animal communities and shit posting.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

What can I say, that’s all I’m good at 🤷‍♀️

[–] RedFrank24@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

The closest thing to flowers I ever received was a cactus. It died.

[–] CleoTheWizard@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Do the flowers also contain concentrated microplastics?

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

Of course! What doesn’t nowadays…

[–] breakingcups@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Those are complimentary

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

LPT: If you want to keep her, you get her both at the same time.

[–] FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

But I only have $5.00 🥲

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

A flower and half a chicken?!!

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 1 points 4 months ago

Haha, you'll have to repay the debt another way then, brokie.

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

That would be me. I would tear into that fucker right on the drive home.
