Chicken isn't supposed to be crunchy. Thats why they use the word "tender" to describe it.
What about fried chicken? Didn't think about that, did ya?
The chicken itself is tender and juicy. That is what i was referring to. A water chestnut is not like fried chicken.
Maybe you just haven't had the right water chestnut.0 -

I found out in a culinary class that there are a portion of people who are genetically predisposed to thinking cilantro tastes like soap. There are also some people who don't like the taste of coriander for the same "soapy" reason. The genetic link ties into their senses of smell and bitterness. You are not "broken", in any way, nor is it just in your head. For some reason, this particular plant is a real turn-off for some!
Back on topic, I like water chestnuts too!0 -
Gross. And I am allergic! So bonus. I dont have to suffer with that vile vegetable! But that doesnt mean other people are wrong for liking them. My kids are nuts for their veggies.. even the gross water ones.0

It's like that old saying goes, "The best nut is the water chestnut."0

Some people like water chestnuts and some people don't. Are those people wrong that have a different opinion than you? I say yes in this case. I am for water chestnuts and will discuss how they are appropriate and why. Do you agree or disagree that water chestnuts are good? Why?
Water chestnuts are okay in a stir fry. I would not eat one all by itself as I think they are bland and weird alone.
I believe we should all be free to eat or not eat water chestnuts as we individually choose though. If you do not like water chestnuts don't eat them but don't impose your views on others.0 -

I've decided I like them. I didn't realize mean lady karate guy was messaging everyone! I thought I was special!
But seriously, I think he's messaged me twice about that and I have no idea what his end game was. 0 -

What? Who?
Some guy mentioned earlier in the thread. Messages you about an older lady who punched him in the balls and he doubled over in pain. Apparently it's some class where 'anything goes' fighting. She tells him she didn't hit him hard and to 'man up'. He's humiliated and asks your opinion. He basically keeps asking the same question over and over until you stop feeling sorry for him. It was weird.0 -

Yep, even I got messages from him awhile back. With my old account and then with my new account as well. I don't usually get weirdo messages. I think they realize I am their superior in weirdness. Only ball kicking guy and "Did you know we are all made out of star dust?" guy. Unless he is changing his tune to "Did you know we are all made out of water chestnuts?"
How is all of this escaping me?
It's been awhile, but he will probably be back. I think he lurks. I never saw him post, but have received almost identical messages multiple times and with him using a different username and name. Last one was probably 6+ months ago though.
Hi Ben/Chris!
this is good stuff! 0 -

Hi Ben/Chris! this is good stuff!
I bet the PM changes slightly now.... but it will still be about a woman inflicting pain on a man or him calling her a "man-hater".
Note to guys: Your first PM should not be 3-5 paragraphs long telling a woman some random story that she doesn't give a flying *kitten* about. Also, you should probably just go to Fetlife. You have a better chance getting someone to bite there.
Allow me to add, your first PM should say more than "hi"
Or "do you have kik?"0 -
