Moderators John317 Posted June 19, 2013 Moderators Share Posted June 19, 2013 I love Shakespeare too, but for different reasons, although I agree with you that he had a knack for "vegetarian swear words." A great one: "Thou unmuzzled fen-sucked clack-dish!" Quote John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeb Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I actually do like brussel sprouts! After I render them unhealthy with lots of butter and salt. I've never liked the things. Growing up I learned to hate them as I don't think anyone could have come up with more unappetizing ways to cook them than my mom did. To me they really did mean green death as they would come close to making me puke. However, looking at the following recipe I may have to give them a second try one of these daysd as even shoe leather, when cooked this way, would probably taste good. http://www.food.com/recipe/fried-brussels-sprouts-142464 Edit for typo Quote Liberty cannot be established without morality, nor morality without faith.Alexis de Tocqueville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever tried habeneros? A little goes a long way, but used in moderation they provide flavor first, and then a gentle heat afterwards, as compared to the jalapeno which hits the palette up front with its heat. Too much of the habenero will create heat first, last, and always though.... I make a rice and black bean dish that's pretty good, or at least I think so, and my wife seems to agree.

Guest Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Yes, I like habaneros. Better than Jalapenos actually. My dad used to grow them. He would pick one out in the garden, and just take a bite out of it right there. I thought he was crazy for doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted June 20, 2013 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2013 Have you tried ghost pepper? At least twice the heat of habaneros. It truly sneaks up on you real slow and then just about burns the house down! It takes maybe 3-5 minutes to hit max heat. So some folk make the mistake of thinking this is not so bad and keep on eating more. Then when it really kicks in they are in serious pain. Quote "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good." "Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal." "I love God only as much as the person I love the least." *Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth.

No. I haven't tried it. Habeneros are hot enough for me, as I don't really like the idea for heat's sake itself. Well, that's not exactly true. I have found that eating food with quite a bit of spice in it will get rid of all by very worst headaches. I'll eat 4 star, out of 5 star, levels of heat in Thai restaurants, but this ghost pepper sounds more like pain than flavor.

It takes maybe 3-5 minutes to hit max heat. I've always wanted to say this, but the ghost pepper [scoville rating at 800,000 to 930,000 units] is not quite as hot as common pepper spray [scovile rating at 2-3,000,000] and regular tabasco sauce is only at 30-50,000 units]. I would imagine that the ghost pepper might cause a few vegetarian swear words once the full effect of the peppers kicked in..

Finally she had an idea. She said to her class that instead of the usual words that they would say to each other, to instead quote Shakespeare's “You common cry of curs! whose breath I hate" that this way they would at least leave behind the fowl words and quote from beauty and art. The kids did replace their swear words with this phrase and instead of it leading to all the fights and hurt feelings this helped to lead to more of a binding of the class and friendships and a willingness to learn more.

Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted June 20, 2013 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2013 I am the only one in my house that will use the ghost pepper sauce. And I use it sparingly, a few small dabs of it go a long way! So the bottle will last me a long time. Quote "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good."
