   Mom studied nutrition and came away “knowing” that we needed to eat liver at least a couple of times / month. Alas, she really didn’t LIKE liver, so she just cooked the bejesus out of it in an open frying pan and served it. No onions. No butter. No spice (not even pepper). We could (and did) use ketchup, mustard, etc… in abundance. Worst meal she ever made, and we got it so OFTEN.

   Once I started cooking for myself, I discovered that it could be cooked to medium temperature, with a lot of sliced onions cooked in plenty of butter… seasoned with turmeric, usually. Still not my favorite, but quite tolerable.

   Yeah. Growing up, I didn’t have anything to compare it to, so it just seemed normal.

   Back in the 30s and 40s when my mother was studying nutrition in college, trichinosis was a real concern, and “thoroughly cooking” pork was not just recommended, but pushed HARD.

   Mostly, my Mom served good food. But she did cook pork until it was brown ALL the way through, or even more overdone… and veggies until they were… soft.

   One of the problems with game theory is that the participants may not use the same scoring system. Her “fail” is his “excuse”.

   At least not overdrawn.

   Thighs matters. But nobody wants to talk about it.

   I’d eat there once. Just to see if she overcooks the veggies like my mom did.

   He’d be right at home there.

   I really don’t see what they think they’re buying. Though I’m sure they have a plan. Maybe they want to own the vice president? Maybe they think the orange mistake will fall flat somehow (without starting an actual internal war)?

    This baffles me. But it turns out that if you explore it a little deeper, they’re not thinking of voting in favor of the orange mistake, they’re voting AGAINST the false Biden memes that the RWINGERS have been feeding us non-stop for months and years.
