like, do they really expect me to eat this burrito?

like an achievement, because "hard mode" ... you know what, I think I'm off in my own mental plane right now

They are halfway through a game of Pummel Party (it's like an off-brand Mario Party). I'm predisposed with real life so I'm not actually on tonight, either Vamped or someone else gotta follow up here if it's on the agenda or you can pop into the discord text chat or whatever to ask (https://discord.gg/eu3rvT2). Alternatively if you want hard mode, ramo is hangin out in the voice chat and streaming his own solo game with the conversation in the background, but there's no cheeve for keeping up that way.

Haaaappppppy birthday! I hope pedro gets you something niceeee

Jackbox was the game du jour tonight. Usually Among Us happens on Saturday nights.

maybe he has a thing for nuns

all I want for Christmas is hitdogs

Expect a push for labelling, like the push to prevent products like soy milk from using the name "milk"

There is certainly no consumer demand for pink slime, if you recall when that was a big thing in the news a decade ago. But if producers are geared towards efficiently getting every last fleck of chicken or beef or whatever and masking it in cheap, formless food, it either comes down to a cost factor for production (and finding an alternative use for the remnants product) or competition against a superior product made with synthetic meat. My thoughts though are all predicated on the near-term continued slaughter for other "formed" meat products because my presumption is that a cut of steak is harder to replicate than ground beef.

It's something that could very easily replace formless/ground meat products as long as taste and texture are consistent. Though my question, because I don't really know the process, is how much of those products are made with the "leftovers" on carcasses? Thinking along the lines of McNuggets and pink slime. Because if those products are made with leftovers with have no other use and they need to slaughter for other purposes (like steaks or wings or whatever), my second thought is maybe there won't be as much financial incentive for existing producers to transition.

can't sleep, my Monday is ruined

Luuv didn't want to be associated, but then when I took over there wasn't much of a paper plan to follow in that regard so I reverted to it primarily being the ASMB community. But fair point nonetheless.
