There's a "St. Baxter" (not sure if it's a chain) near me which claims to be

having been in southern California recently, we're keen to try it.

Interesting.  With Australia's multicultural population, we have a wide range 
of cuisines (much
different to when I was growing up when Chinese was about the only option when 
dining out).
However, we do seem to be lacking in North American options.  I found a Creole 
place once, which
didn't last long, and there are a few lame Tex-Mex establishments but I've 
never seen Hawaiian, for
example.  A niche waiting to be filled?

organic bananas are often a bit smaller and sometimes they ripen
differently (they can brown more before becoming overripe); i like them
because of how they are produced, not in monoculture, exposing workers
and land to fewer toxins; organic bananas aren't much more expensive
than conventional because it's expensive to chemically control the
diseases monoculture has encouraged

One of the places I go past on my regular rides often has a big silage pile 
fermenting away close to the road, but it's not sealed very well (maybe it's 
ripe stuff waiting for use).  It stinks something nasty.  I don't know how the 
cows eat the stuff.  Probably the same way that cats will happily eat cat food.

Cows here in NZ eat grass, supplemented with other foods as needed.  The dairy 
industry makes huge amounts of money by exporting to China but it comes at an 
environmental cost, both from leaching nutrients and effluent.

While the ruminants are treated fairly well here I can't say the same for pigs 
or chickens.  It's a pain buying free-range eggs as its legal definition, if 
there even is one, is so watered-down as to be almost meaningless.  The 
suppliers love playing the "out of sight, out of mind" game.  If we knew more 
about where our food came from we might be more selective.

Cheers,
Dave

Geez, I never said that Maize, (because corn is ambiguous), wasn't a 
decent food, I like Maize, but it's pretty much the worst original 
choice for a grain crop, and would never have been domesticated if the 
natives of the Americas had a better choice.


It has a lot of advantages, /today/, after a couple of centuries of 
selective breeding, and decades of scientific selective breeding, but 
it's early disadvantages outweighed those advantages.  Now It's actually 
easy to grow,(it wasn't always), and it can double as a vegetable.  The 
kernels store a lot of energy either as starch or sugar.  Yes, all 
that's true. But it also puts a lot of energy into a) (for humans at 
least), a large indigestible cob, and b) it is distinctly lacking in 
protein compared to wheat, rye, and a other old world grain crops.


That modern Maize is also used as a vegetable, (many of which are 
actually fruits, take the tomato for example), adds to it's versatility, 
but, it falls short of those in vitamins and minerals.  I never said 
that corn was bad, just that given a choice the Indians would have 
chosen something else.


Frank is right Corn is primary used in cattle feed to fatten Beef for 
market quickly, unlike him I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.


Any vet will tell you not to feed your pet a food with too much Maize 
product.  Maize is a treat,


Any individual or civilization who is forced to rely almost entirely on 
Maize as a diet staple is at a disadvantage.

That's for beef cattle, anyway.

I'm not sure what that has to do with our discussion of corn as a predominant 
component in cattle feed. Cattle have evolved over millions of years to eat 
grass. Corn is fed to them at feedlots because its incredibly high energy 
content bulks them up quickly and cheaply for slaughter.

But the bovine digestive system isn't designed to consume that much corn. It 
leads to bloating and nearly constant low-grade infection such that 
prophylactic antibiotics are routinely added to their feed. 

I'm not saying that corn is bad, I'm saying it shouldn't be fed to cattle in 
the quantities we see nowadays.

No, not in the same way at all.

We're omnivores but that doesn't mean we ~have~ to eat meat. 

We evolved so when plant-based food was scarce we had the option of eating 
animals. There is some evidence (admittedly disputed) that many prehistoric 
tribes existed on an almost completely plant-based diet, rarely eating meat 
except as a last resort.

Cows and other ruminants, on the other hand eat only one thing in nature: grass.

I don't think anyone denies that, but it doesn't stand as an argument for or 
against eating meat, or nuts or berries or tubers or any particular food, or 
against somebody making an ethical choice against eating animals, or indeed 
exploiting them in other ways. One of the ways in which we differ from cattle 
and many other animals is that we can make these choices and live by them. 

I think it's unlikely that any cow, however gifted in ethics, could choose to 
be a carnivore, any more than she could choose an exclusive diet of brazil 
nuts, as she'd be at a distinct disadvantage in a hunt, and might struggle to 
bring down even a sheep, let alone a zebra or wildebeest, and would have a 
difficult time chewing one even if she did.

Even apart from that, the argument that we evolved as omnivores doesn't take 
into account that meat for most of our time and for most people was a very rare 
meal and contributed very little to daily survival and health. The amount we 
eat nowadays is far more than we evolved to eat and is partly responsible for 
our bad health.

And then of course there's the unnatural and cruel conditions in which we keep 
and feed most farm animals compared to the way the animals lived before 
industrialised agriculture. Even the most avid meat-eater should have some 
reaction against that if they're any kind of decent human, and if it's only 
because they value quality and flavour should insist on meat from animals that 
are raised without cruelty and fed a natural diet.

Around these parts organic bananas aren't much more than regular ones. Once in 
a while I'll buy organic. 

The flesh has a different consistency. Hard to express but it's a bit creamier 
feeling. And they taste pretty good; again I don't really have the vocabulary 
to properly describe it.

Or maybe it's my imagination, any differences, if any, are subtle.

No, they eat corn. And more corn. Yet again even more corn. And dead

Soybeans is a large part of animal feed, corn hardly has enough
nourishment.  One of the problems of the native American cultures was
lack of large domesticable  animals, and suitable easily domesticable
grasses.  No culture that had a choice would have chosen Corn, and the
only tractable large ruminant in the Americas was, well there wasn't one.

My understanding was the corn was just fine until European farmers got 
their hands on the stuff and removed all of it's nutritional value in 
favor of volume growth.
Now, the only nutrition corn has is if you eat corn on the cob because 
the butter at least has some calcium in it.

Not really, Vegans are competing for food with farm animals.

Hardly, since in most industrial-scale farming we seem to be feeding farm 
animals with mashed-up bits of their dead relatives.

That doesn't sound like it could possibly end well.

Actually that sounds like a perpetual motion machine, which is physically 
imposable, no matter how you slice it.


It ends with mad cow disease

I didn't say it was natural, I said there was a lot of soy used.  Even

That's for beef cattle, anyway.

And even if there were soy, it's hardly natural for ruminant.

No even the native Maize is poor nutrition, in comparison to just about 
every other grass crop.  Living in New England we actually have a few 
small farmers growing legacy corn and it doesn't have a lot more 
vitamins and protein than the yellow stuff you buy in the supermarket.  
Just a lot less sugar.

I don't think that a sea urchin is capable of thought, but who knows?

Sea urchins have no true brain, but they are sensitive to touch,
light, and chemicals. Although they do not have eyes, the entire body
of sea urchins might function as a compound eye.

Sea urchins feed mainly on algae, but can also feed on sea cucumbers
and a wide range of invertebrates, such as mussels, sponges, brittle
stars, and crinoids.  So, they eat other animal life, and thus are
fair game for us (and for sea otters, who love urchins).

Sentience is the ability to perceive or feel, not to think. 

>From Wikipedia:

"Sentience is the ability to feel, perceive, or experience subjectively.[1] 
Eighteenth-century philosophers used the concept to distinguish the ability to 
think (reason) from the ability to feel (sentience). In modern Western 
philosophy, sentience is the ability to experience sensations (known in 
philosophy of mind as "qualia"). In Eastern philosophy, sentience is a 
metaphysical quality of all things that requires respect and care. The concept 
is central to the philosophy of animal rights, because sentience is necessary 
for the ability to suffer, and thus is held to confer certain rights."

By any definition I'm aware of, sea urchins are sentient.

frank

I hope your not really saying that's your test, Dan. That sure opens the door

Obviously you have other criteria as well; cows, after all are vegetarian.

lack of large domesticable  animals, and suitable easily domesticable

I guess it's about where you draw the line.

No one normal would eat other humans. Lots wouldn't consider eating cats, dogs 
or other domesticated household pets. Great apes and other primates are pretty 
much off limits, too.

I'm of the view that if one wouldn't eat a dog because it's cruel, it must be equally 
cruel to kill and eat a sensitive, intelligent, socially advanced animal like a pig. If 
"no" for pigs, how can you say yes for cows, fish or anything else that feels 
pain?

So I draw the line at sentience. Yes, I know it can be a blurred line in some 
cases but I feel fairly comfortable saying yes to plants and no to animals of 
all sorts. It's really easy to remember. And easy to understand, at least for 
me.

There are way more reasons to be vegan but I'll leave it at that for now.

Paul, I thought that Uni is the gonads of the sea urchin, rather than
the roe.  (Now, that should spoil both Ann's and Frank's appetite.
Also, it is said to have a  euphoria-causing chemical in it.  I do
know I felt very good after my meal at Haru, but I though that was the
banana spring roll I had for desert.  

As for Poke, it certainly isn't considered exotic in Hawaii.  Haoles
and visitors enjoy it as much as the Native Hawaiians and Japanese
Hawaiians.

Yes, but I am a big time Yankee fan.  

Tuna used in tuna casserole is not at all like fresh tuna grilled or
raw tuna in poke, sushi or sashimi.  The later types of tuna are MUCH
tastier.  The shininess on the poke is from the seasoned oil used to
flavor the tuna chunks.  Not slimy at all.  I had water buffalo steaks
in Thailand many years ago, and found it absolutely delicious.

As I said, I do not eat raw fish or steak tartare other than in a
restaurant that I trust.  Haru is my favorite sashimi place in The
City.

Ha!
Actually , Dan, I likedsalmon roe with raw quail eggsushi.  But I think 
it a better idea not to eat raw fish at all these days...


However tuna is a fish I got quite sick of in my early twenties - 
macaroni casarole with mushroomsoup and tuna- and I think once got sick 
from - can't abide it anymore.


The raw tuna in your photo looks a bit slimy to me because of the 
shininessand therefore not so appetizing.


I certainly never would say I'd eat anything put in front of me, 
especially if looking at it make me gag.  I tried water buffalo recently
(don't like bison at all, so I was skeptical, but water buffalois not 
that, as I'm sure Alan will confirm). I was sorry I had - the jerky 
sample was tasty so I bought 1/2 lb of ground meat out of curiosity at 
the farm market and supposedlythe relative healty benefits versus beef - 
but didn't like the taste at allafter a few bites so gave the rest 
awayto a friend who, happily, thoughit was yummy.


On a different topic, Dan - you did the announcer's jinx thing on the 
DeGrom :-( big time!

Mo, Don, raw tuna naturally ranges from light red to dark red,
depending on the variety of the fish.  Unfortunately, some sellers are
now "gassing" tuna to make it look bright red and therefore fresh.
Again, I only eat raw fish or any kind at a restaurant that I trust.
We have an excellent place right here in our little town that usually
rates as the top Japanese restaurant by Zagat's and by New Jersey
Monthly in their annual restaurant ratings, and I have favorite places
in NYC and on Maui that I know and trust. Never, ever eat suchi in a
Chinese restaurant.  It's like ordering linguine Alfredo in a Greek
restaurant.I did that once, and there was red sauce on it.

Dan,

Yep, nice poke is very tasty!
Surprisingly, the sushi stand at the local supermarket ("HEB") sells 
"poke". But it is essentially just passable tuna sashimi.


As for things that are similar to this "poke" is the dish that is called 
"[fish] ceviche" in Chile, and especially in Easter Island.
It is different from "Mexican" ceviche, and much closer to what you 
pictured as "poke". That Easter Island ceviche is one of the best dishes 
we've tried there (while the food there is very tasty in general).

As the descendant of Eastern European peasants, I'll eat just about
anything that is place before me.  
As I said above, I tried sea urchin sashimi a few weeks ago, and I
finished it, although neither the texture nor the flavor really
appealed to me.  Perhaps it is an acquired taste.  I didn't like
octopus when I first tried it in Japan 49 years ago, but I have grown
to appreciate it, both cooked and raw.

One of my favorite dishes is steak tartare, but I only order it in
establishments that have my confidence, because it has to be a great
piece of meat properly prepared.  I like the places that grind the
meat and season it right at your table.


I do a great steak tartare. Unfortunately, she who must also be fed or 
the pampering stops prefers somewhat cooked meat.


I'm happy making a Martini with gin, knowing there is a bottle of 
vermouth somewhere, and I am quite happy with a steak dinner, knowing 
that there is a barbecue in the neighborhood.

Re: PESO: Poke

2015-10-29 Thread knarf
Veganism really isn't hard to understand. I don't feel the need to defend or 
explain it here, but it's got a lot to do with alleviating cruelty and 
exploitation of sentient, feeling beings.

I guess it's about where you draw the line. 

No one normal would eat other humans. Lots wouldn't consider eating cats, dogs 
or other domesticated household pets. Great apes and other primates are pretty 
much off limits, too.

I'm of the view that if one wouldn't eat a dog because it's cruel, it must be 
equally cruel to kill and eat a sensitive, intelligent, socially advanced 
animal like a pig. If "no" for pigs, how can you say yes for cows, fish or 
anything else that feels pain?

So I draw the line at sentience. Yes, I know it can be a blurred line in some 
cases but I feel fairly comfortable saying yes to plants and no to animals of 
all sorts. It's really easy to remember. And easy to understand, at least for 
me.

There are way more reasons to be vegan but I'll leave it at that for now.

Cheers,

frank

That's quite funny, the part about eating vegans when they're young. I can 
barely type, I'm laughing so hard.

As for competing with farm animals for food, I'm pretty sure that cows, pigs 
and chickens don't eat leafy greens, nightshades, beans and lentils, root 
vegetables and fresh fruits.

No, they eat corn. And more corn. Yet again even more corn. And dead animal 
stuff (of their own species, in many cases). And loads and loads of 
antibiotics, because they're so prone to infections caused by eating so much 
corn (which their stomachs aren't designed to digest).

So mostly we're not in competetion for food.

But again, your comments were very humorous. Thanks for sharing.

Subject: PESO: Poke

Poke (pronounced POH-kay) is the quintessential Hawaiian dish.  It is
served in most Hawaiian homes and restaurants, and no gathering in
Hawaii would be complete without a few bowls of poke. Poke is
bite-size pieces of raw tuna doused in seasonings, and mixed with
seaweed and Maui onions.

So in other words Hawaiian Sashimi.

It looks shiny, nicely exposed, though I'm not sure it looks appetizing.
