To start off, While I am a pescatarian, I think biblical angels would be delicious fried / grilled, specifically the ones who aren't high enough to be abstract shapes, as I do not think I can stomach a wheel.

Bro's gonna get to the great beyond and experience horrors beyond human comprehension for this one

A bite of the Ouroboros, why should the serpent be the only one that gets a taste of itself?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I loved swordfish steak the one time I had it, so I'd bet that Scylla, Charybdis, or the Kraken would be quite good.

Oh, also The Kraken is quite tasty.

Spiced rum? Have to try sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 days ago

Flying spaghetti monster feels quite obvious

Beyond that I'm vegan so I'd eat snacks off Aphrodite's belly, therefore snacking upon Aphrodite

Allah can turn things to ice, and thus would be mint flavored.

Allah choclates....🀀

I bet Aphrodite would taste divine.

Would definitely stuff her

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

I would most prefer the Tyrant (the judeo-muslim-Christian God) because nothing tastes better than vindictive spite.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Gonna eat all the Wuxia pills.

Heavenly Pearl pill? Nom. Nine Color White Lotus pill? Nom. Holy Flame pill? Nom. You refine it, I dine it.

Once I eat all the dānyào Mike 'n' Ikes I'll either leave the room a Dragon Warrior or I'll meet Master Oogway in the spirit realm. Maybe he can give me advice on the Daoist approach on debugging C++ multithreading.

If my soul evaporates it'll be a bummer tho

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

I wish you best of luck in comprehending the dao of programming.

I'm not sensitive to mythology. Couldn't care less about any of them, 100% atheist. But... are y'all meat eaters okay?Deaming what sentient, and often benevolent kind creatures would taste like is just wild.

While I am a pescatarian, I think biblical angels would be delicious fried

You won't eat beef, but a literal messenger of the god would be fair game? I know this is a silly hypothetical, but I don't understand these metrics at all. πŸ˜‚

You know how you can tell someone is an atheist vegan?

It's called "mortal comradeship", thats why the birds, bees, and squirls sit with me during lunch.

(this entire thread is humorous and I believe you are obtuse)

The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I've been off gluten for a while now for medical reasons and god damn this a thousand times. I would kill for some decent spaghetti.

All the gluten free ones are kinda shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Is there gluten in chickpeas? I kinda prefer it to regular

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Chickpeas are legumes and legumes don't have gluten. Although you should still check products because there might be crosd contam or added wheat in some products.

But yeah probably chickpea spaghetti can be found gluten free. I'll put it on the "to try" list, but I'm not too hopeful. I've tried a whole bunch and without that gluten in there, just can't get the consistency right enough for it to please me.

So I just got a rice cooker.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'll warn you that it overcooks easily. Cook it for less time than normal pasta.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Huh maybe it might be okay then because the ones I've been using have had longer cook times and even when I played around with them, never got them nice.

Ty for the tips.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I would imagine the FSM to be composed of the platonic ideal of gluten rather than physical gluten, though I'm not sure if that would be more irritating or less. I'd consult a GI and maybe a metaphysician.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Metaphysician here. The platonic ideal of gluten will induce the platonic ideal of diarrhea. Honestly I'm not going to call that a good trade, but that's an exercise for the reader.

I mean Jesus is pretty tasty in small doses as is.

I love Tom! I was originally going to go down this line with my comment and didn’t think anyone would get it. Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Hah,I didn't know either, but love that you are around!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Came here for this... I mean, he did say Eat Me. (Not like that, sicko.) This is my body, tastes like good crust bread.

He probably worked on it a bit before he died. Like ate a lot of Sage and Thyme at the last supper or something.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Jesus wafers with grape jelly is something I'd definitely snack on.

A medium rare Phoenix might be interesting. Though you'd have to work really hard not to burn it, else you get a baby Phoenix.

Many early generation Pokemon might be delicious. I don't want to eat any steel type Pokemon.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Charcoal grilled phoenix might be good! Maybe basted in some really hot chili sauce? Or maybe even as simple as a soy sauce based baste. Keeping the phoeinix moist with some basting liquid is probably a good way to keep it from burning.

I don't mind a deep-fried baby Phoenix tho.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

What about phoenix balut?

I bet JΓΆrmungandr the world-serpent, who gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil-tree, destined to kill and be killed by Thor, tastes like chicken.

I'm a vegetarian so I want either a golden apple or an apple from Eden.

Didn't Zeus go around appearing as things like swans? Is swan like goose? Christmas Zeus, with a bonus of all that fat to fry potatoes in is my choice. Just gotta catch him in swan form.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

The problem with ingesting Zeus is that I'd have a good chance (nearly 100% based on my Greek mythology knowledge) I'd end up being pregnant and incurring Hera's wrath, or being whisked to Olympus as his winebearer... or both!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

Tiny Tim: Mom, look at the Christmas Zeus! It's almost as big as me!

I drink trash wine and love carbs anyway so I'm going with Jesus.
