Here we have colon incinerating pulled pork, chili that WILL give you a beer gut, this picture lacks the 9lbs of cheese and sour cream however, and fried pickles which though not all that unhealthy, should be posted because they are FUCKING DELICIOUS. Previous picture was deep fried bacon wrapped cornish game hen with twice baked cheddar garlic potatoes.

I've had the deep fried Mars Bar. I do not recommend. It sits on your stomach like a small, lead weight of doom and bad indigestion, making you discinlined to move or in fact do anything for the next 12 hours.

Here at carnivals we get deep fried snickers bars, deep fried coke (which is actually funnel cake flavored with coke), pigs feet (chewy but not all bad tasting, pickled eggs, and I once saw a contest for deep fried habaneros, with a ghost chili kicker at the end. I think there was a waver for that one. We got some crazy shit from time to time, like tobacco spitting contests which of course, the toothless inbreeds always win at that, the physics of lacking teeth to forceful mouth projectiles is astounding.
You've forgotten deep fried Twinkies, and now I want one.
I disagree Cain, you are probably mostly right but deep fried Mars Bars aren't always indigestible. There's a chippy in Stirling that used to do a stunning haggis and chips and a really delicate deep fried Mars Bar.
Haggis makes everything better, though, here's a bag I bought the other day for a laugh. Turns out they are really really tasty

I hate to rain on y'alls' parades, but done properly, deep-frying is a reasonably healthy way to prepare your food.
Of course, the food being deep-fried can, itself, be horribly unhealthy, and most people don't have the first clue how to deep-fry things correctly, but still.
I try to stick to food that will give me the most bang for my buck. I don't like eating as much as most people for some reason. Fried food is all right, more dense than a lot of stuff but it fills me up and I don't eat anything else. Same goes for ice cream. I can eat a tub of that stuff and nothing else for most of the day.
I think the #1 way to start is just like NOT being a fat bastard eat a piece of fruit, not a banana, to get things going. Then oatmeal every single morning. Then add an egg or two.
Lunch and dinner is easy to make big. It's breakfast that's a challenge, for me anyway.
Sorry, I'm out of food-porn.

You mean "hot, fast, in a decent oil and well drained"? Like fish?
Fish, chicken, veggies, etc. The key is to have CLEAN oil, know the correct temperature for what you're frying (fish, potatoes, and chicken all have different ideal temps), and DO FUCKING NOT put anything in the oil until it has reached that target temp. And then drain it properly, on paper-covered racks.
Needless to say, hardly anybody does all of that.
So yeah, basically what you already said. :lulz:
You explained it better. :lol:
You're right about the different temperatures. Chicken seems to need a good hot scald first to keep the crust from coming off, but after that I always had to turn it down some.
Chicken wants 375, fish wants 340, and potatoes are a little more flexible but should generally be around 350. It's important to cut everything to sizes/thicknesses that will ensure they're fully cooked at their target temp before the batter/breading burns (or the outside surface in the case of potatoes).
Chicken hotter than fish? So best to avoid bone-in cut-up fryers and just cut everything small?
The way I learned (NOT saying this is right, bear with me) is this, it's pretty SOP in the south:
We never used thermometers or anything. For fish, get the oil so hot it's almost ready to smoke. The person who showed me held a kitchen match over the oil and it lit by itself from the heat. Put the pieces in one by one. When they float up, they're ready. It doesn't take much time so have everything set up before you start frying. This always works great.
For chicken (a cut-up fryer, not strips) get the oil almost as hot as for fish but not quite. Put the pieces in the same way and get a good scald on them, then turn the heat down and put a lid on it. If you cook it too fast it'll be bloody in the middle. Those deep cast iron pans are best for chicken, BTW. The downside is that it tends to be GREASY AS FUCK.
I learned my frying from old people and all of them were kind of pro-grease. :x I've actually been yelled at for poking fork holes in boiling sausage to let some of the grease out. :lol:

And yes, Nigel. Chickenfried steak is fucking AMBROSIA.
But lethal. Not so much the steak itself but the pile of fries and cup of white gravy that's almost mandated with it. :lol:
the steak itself is really just a medium for the gravy.
and it adds a bit of texture.
but it's the gravy that's the key.
god, i love that shit.
And the crust. Crust should be a thickish wrinkley mass of OMFGYES.

TBH, when I do bone-in fryers I par-cook the chicken before I bread it and fry it. I'm sure it's sacrilege, but it turns out really good and it really cuts down on worrying about your time-to-temp ratio. My preferred method is to brine the chicken for a day then roast it in a foil-covered pan until it's about 2/3 done. The brining and foil-covering keeps it moist and then all you have to do is batter it and let it sit in the fryer until the batter is crispy and you're all good.
I want all of this in my face RIGHT NOW.

That sounds excellent.
We used to brine rabbits and they were always awesome. It was to get the funkiness out, people usually added some vinegar too. But now that I think about it, I never had a dry piece of rabbit and they really don't have fat on them.

Sausage kolaches. I've never seen them frosted, though. Just wrapped in mildly sweet yellow dough made with a fuckton of egg yolks and no whites. I can post the recipe if anybody wants it.
Sausage goes with all kinds of sweet. That's why people push them around in pancake syrup.
they have the pastry kolaches with the fruit in them, and they are sugary. like with the crystallized sugar on top...
not the meat ones though.
i love stopping at the czech stop in West whenever i go down to austin.
but i'm wondering if there's a way to have a cheeseburger in a kolache. somehow have the meat, cheese and bread hot with the veggies cold inside...

Just make hamburger buns out of kolache dough, I guess.

Properly made haggis is a joy to eat. In my four years in Scotland, I managed to have it
once. The rest of the time it was the dreaded haggis from a can, or worse, vegetarian haggis.
I suppose anywhere that could make haggis well probably could do a decent deep fried Mars Bar....but that place is mostly certainly not the St Andrews Fish and Chip shop. Batter and deep fry ALL THE THINGS is all they know how to do.
There's nothing sadder than a bad chippy when it comes to take-aways.

To be FAT PERSON:
Step one: Develop insatiable appetite for chips and ketchoney (ketchup and honey, don't knock it until you've tried it unless you hate ketchup, then yeah, you won't like it that much).
Step two: Eat a party size bag of chips in one to two sittings over an average period of less than a day to a day and a half.
Step three: Stop caring what you look like because there's just too much effort in that and who cares anyway, you definitely don't. Best to do it in bed, in the dark, while filling that empty feeling inside.
Step four: Repeat until desired fatness has been achieved.
Step five: Die from hypertension (lol salt).

To be FAT PERSON:
Step one: Develop insatiable appetite for chips and ketchoney (ketchup and honey, don't knock it until you've tried it unless you hate ketchup, then yeah, you won't like it that much).
Step two: Eat a party size bag of chips in one to two sittings over an average period of less than a day to a day and a half.
Step three: Stop caring what you look like because there's just too much effort in that and who cares anyway, you definitely don't. Best to do it in bed, in the dark, while filling that empty feeling inside.
Step four: Repeat until desired fatness has been achieved.
Step five: Die from hypertension (lol salt).
It's not enough to just eat a lot of fat and starch; you also have to be as physically sedentary as humanly possible. WALK? No way!!!
I thought that was implied?
Oh, I guess I forgot to put that in there. :lol:

Dude, are you trying to bulk up, or die? I know skinnyass people who ended up having to get their arteries Roto-Rootered
TM.
I'd tell you to get into bodybuilding or something but they push a bunch of shitty "supplements".
BE FUCKING SKINNY. SKINNY IS HAWT. ROCK STARS ARE FUCKING SKINNY.
I'm with ECH on this one to a point.
Also my phone wants to change "ech " to "echelons". :lulz:
Well yeah, morbid obesity isn't hawt either, but from a purely personal preference standpoint people need to have enough meat on them to stand up to what I'm dishing out.
Exactly, echelons.

I think they get laid because their famous and because the groupies get all hot and bothered over their music equally much as them being hot sometimes.

It has it's benefits, for sure.
But now that I can't see straight I can no longer depend on my martial arts training to defend myself, can't run without hitting something, and can't see my surroundings well enough to use them to my advantage like I used to.
I've already been violently assaulted since I came down with this unidentified disease and it occurred to me that I'm going to need to learn some new tricks fast. Being a physically larger animal, even a few dozen pounds worth, means people can't shove me to the ground as easily.
It also gives me an advantage in grappling. Not much, but I'll take whatever edge I can get at this point.

Solution=Carry various raw meats on and about your person. Just tie top serloin to your arms, duct tape a rump roast to your rump. In this way you will appear larger than you are, and should you be faced with multiple attackers you can, with a little ingenuity, turn a violent altercation into a BBQ.

You need an equalizer, not size. For intimidation, you can just get a decent-sized dog. Some people like to jump the biggest guy in the bar in order to look like a badass,
especially if they know the biggest guy has some disadvantage.
Women have to think about equalizers a lot. How do you think women use parking garages, etc. without becoming power lifters?
Can you get a permit to carry a concealed weapon?
If not, there's knives, CS gas, etc.

- I can't afford a dog. I'm broke as fuck.
- There's no way I'm ever going to be the biggest guy in the bar unless it's a dwarf bar.
- Most women have normal vision and can use self-defense techniques effectively if they've learned them. They also can carefully monitor their surroundings since their eyeballs function properly. I know self-defense techniques but sometimes, especially when I'm highly stressed, my vision gets so bad I literally can't walk down a sidewalk. The only thing I can count on is grappling if I can't talk my way out of it.
- Knives are for killing people. The law treats them as deadly weapons, and as such, are only useful in the most dire of situations. I could get shot for pulling a knife. Furthermore, I have a knife that I always carry with me, but it's purely to be used as a last resort. It's simply not useful in most violent confrontations.
- I'm going to get some pepper spray as soon as I have the money for it.
Meanwhile, I'm going to keep putting on some pounds.

If you can legally carry CS where you live, get that and not the pepper spray. The trick with pepper spray is you have to get it IN A PERSON'S EYES for it to really work, and that can be a problem if you're grappling and on top of that your vision is compromised.
With CS you just get it in the general vicinity of their face and they're down for the count. 8)
A lot of CS has UV dye in it too, so you can prove it was them if you want to press charges.

And I disagree that knives for protection are necessarily for killing people. In some situations you might have to, but the two times that I've actually had to use a knife, the guys got all shocked when they realized they were cut and quit. I guess they didn't expect it, they thought I was going to just beg or something. Might be different with a male on male attack, I don't know.
Jesus, Net! I hope you get all that (and what-the-fuck-ever it is that's wrong with your eyes) sorted soon. :(

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that anything that does not physically incapacitate or restrain someone is not a good idea to base self defense around. In other words relying on pain from superficial wounds is not a good idea. Not everyone will react in the same way to pain stimulus.

Not unless they (literally) ask for it. But there are other people whose response to something like that would be similar and some of those people ARE shitnecks of the lowest order. And you never know when someone's hopped to the gills on bad crank and won't even feel it. IMO, if you feel physically threatened enough to try to actually hurt someone, you're better off just killing them or delivering a completely incapacitating strike (throat, solar plexus, knee).
Yeah, my basic self-defense rule goes two ways:
1) Make sure they can't temporarily chase you, and then run.
2) Make sure they will never be able to chase you again, ever (the Enders Game tactic).
Note: both 1) and 2) employ the "by any means possible" technique.
Luckily, I've never had to resort to 2).
Yeah, I've been lucky too.
I'd probably go with "incapacitating", ECH. I don't really trust myself to make a snap decision to kill somebody even if they're a fucking psycho. Back to the CS gas.
Shit, you live in Texas. I think they actually give you a tax break if you kill someone in self-defense.

RE: thread title,

Yes. I never have much of an appetite. What helps me is physical exertion, getting my metabolism geared to require fuel is the only way I get hungry, and even then it's often more of a mechanical process than a desire to eat for its own sake.
Even weed doesn't really do it for me. I'm thinking about cooking it all the time so I will have a compelling reason to eat.
You have to do it gradually. Three meals a day, small at first, and then add a little more food every couple of days. Eventually your stomach will grow and hold more, desire more food. I got close to this, almost my needed caloric intake, until I developed a peanut allergy. I was throwing heaping gobs of the stuff into oatmeal, smoothies, whatever.
Oh and don't get food poisoned. Saps the appetite something fierce. Especially don't get food poisoned 6 times in 16 months.

He loves it. When I was in AK he was all like "Hey EoC wanna get food poisoned?" and I was like "Nah."
I'm sort of like that Into the Wild guy, except lazier and more drunk. And I know how to use a FUCKING MAP.
Peanut butter is awesome for becoming a fat bastard.
A good friend of mine and his girlfriend, when unemployed, had for some reason nothing but peanut butter and crackers in their house. Which they ate continuously over a three week period. The weight gain was...impressive, yet scary.
