The saddest part to me is how little more and more people know about cooking. Each generation seems to know less and less about the basics and rely more and more on fast food and restaurants to survive.
exasperation@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
What are you talking about? Every generation in the US knows more about food than the ones before.
Boomers were raised on canned/frozen nonsense and basically had no variety. Their vegetables were underseasoned and overcooked. Their pickiness about cuts of meat left many delicious parts of the animals underappreciated scraps. They knew each fruit as basically one cultivar, like how all apples were the utterly mediocre red delicious. Even their bread was boring.
Their restaurant scene was pathetic, with Italian American food representing the pinnacle of exotic cuisine. Any immigrant opening a restaurant for American diners would have to carefully water down their traditions to fit American tastes and the American supply chain.
No thank you, I’d never travel back in time to eat or cook the way people did 50 years ago. Food is better now, and it’s largely because today’s cooks and diners know way more about food than people did back then.

No matter what they might think, history did not actually start with the Boomers

BigDiction@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Shit the acceleration of public cooking knowledge, ingredient availability, cuisine variety, food media, etc since the 90s has been incredible.
Yeah maybe the average person doesn’t know how to work with lemongrasss or whatever but you can look it up in a minute and people are doing that.
The upvoted comment you replied to is so demonstrably false. Sometimes Lemmy is just like Reddit where you come across a topic you’re actually familiar with and see all the bullshit comments for what they are.
brynden_rivers_esq@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Yeah I mean nowadays I feel like something like hello fresh or whatever meal delivery service (that still requires you to cook) is a big convenient treat. Delivery is so goddamn expensive, I ain’t made of money!
Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I can’t speak for everyone, but since the COVID inflation I’ve swore off most fastfood and exclusively cook for myself now. I’ve learned baking bread, making stocks, processing meat, canning, and so much more. It’s so much healthier, tastier, and more affordable. I think folks are coming back to cooking for themselves. It may not be the majority, but there are many of us that have mostly swore off eating out.
Chais@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Just as intended.
hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I worked with a dude who loved “ramen” but had never had it from a restaurant. He didn’t seem like he knew how to cook particularly well, and I’m not sure if he’d ever even left the suburbs he was born in.
One day he was talking about how excited he was to go to a real ramen shop over the weekend. So next time I see him I asked how it went. He sighed and said he got a veggie ramen because he found out the meat ones were “made with bone” and he was grossed out by it. I could only say “of course, that’s how you make good soup.” Then I had to explain how you make stock or split pea with ham soup, etc. I think I ruined soup for him.

Vegetarian soups are still delicious though. Soup is just awesome all around

I can’t downvote you, but soup is a disappointing meal.

Who the fuck uses bay leaves in Mexican food?
Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
Apparently it is common in Mexico itself. I had to look it up because I was also incredulous at using a bay leaf in a burrito.
eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
People who know how to cook? 😆
not_that_guy05@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Birria? Rice? Caldos?
WTF do you mean who uses leaves in Mexican food?
rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Mexicans.
RipLemmDotEE@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
Every good pot of Mexican beans has bay leaves in it.
ickplant@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I was curious, here is what I found: “We use bay leaves to add a subtle depth of flavor to dishes like our beans, rice, Barbacoa, and Carnitas.” - this was off a reddit post, so who knows.
eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
Classic carnitas flavor absolutely has bay
protist@mander.xyz 2 weeks ago
There’s literally a species of laurel native to Mexico that indigenous Americans used in their food for thousands of years.
Bay leaves come from various plants and are used for their distinctive flavour and fragrance. The most common source is the bay laurel (Laurus nobilis). Other types include California bay laurel, Indian bay leaf, West Indian bay laurel, and Mexican bay laurel.
ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
“Mexican food”…
YaDownWitCPP@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Just checked out a map; turns out Mexico does exist.
rainwall@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
Mexicans.
HeyJoe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Use it in with rice all the time. Its a very subtle flavor but it definitely adds to it so it goes in.
cowfodder@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Mexicans. At least some of them.

The cook really should be picking the bay leaves out. No one wants to eat a bay leaf.
HeyJoe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
They probably do, but finding them all every single time is almost impossible. I know I’ve had a few pop up in my own food over the years.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
we just tell the kids whoever finds the bay leaf “wins” and gets first dessert.
i can’t remember the last time i served dessert.
Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
While that is true, not recognizing a bayleaf is a sign of embarrassing stupidity.
rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
ignorance, but yeah. Who hasn’t encountered a bay leaf by adulthood?
Aeri@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yeah this is pretty much where I’m at, her reaction seems pretty stupid but I would be a little annoyed if I had to pick a bay leaf out of my mouth.
rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Like a cat with a hairball.
SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
TBH I have no idea why bay leaves aren’t ground like other herbs — despite having spent my childhood watching my mom regularly put bay leaves in her cooking.
That might also be why I detect barely any taste in bay leaves.
rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Nah, you don’t want that. I don’t think the leaf would grind very well and it’s just supposed to be a hint of spice in the final dish.
bitjunkie@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Man, just wait until someone tells her where the rest of food comes from
BanMe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I know folks, my boss and his family, who - if it doesn’t come from a box, powder, and/or plastic bag, will not be eating it. It’s really sad and I eat whole food in front of him all the time in hopes…
Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
I had a relative once say that she’s vegetarian, won’t eat animals. I point out the chicken she’s eating and has always eaten, and she says “It’s from the grocery store, not an animal”. We had to have a long chat. People too divorced from real food and its sources, have some weird assumptions.
axexrx@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
My friends mom has been trying the opposite- shes trying to avoid buying any plastic packaged food. Not so much out of concern for microplastics, but as a way to reduce her environmental impact.
Its also helped her eat much healthier- most candy is out, all her veggies are fresh instead of frozen, fresh meats instead of prepackaged ones, etc.

My first girlfriend’s brat sister got grossed out when I told her that eggs were literally shitted out by hens. Beautiful twist. She went on to get a food safety degree.
pnelego@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
In fairness, I’m not sure anyone knows if bay leaves even do anything.
inb4_FoundTheVegan@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
… what?
Make a dish twice, once without the bay leaf. There is an obvious difference. It’s fine to not like the taste of any particular spice but saying there is none is sort of crazy?
Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
He’s joking, it’s people that don’t cook often don’t know what the difference is
HollowedFleshwalker@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago

While I support the message of never eating at Chipotle again, she’s doing it for the wrong reasons.
I don’t eat at Chipotle because they were bought by private equity and subsequently enshittified to further enrich someone who already had more wealth than could be spent in a lifetime.
She doesn’t eat at Chipotle because she found a bayleaf in her burrito bowl…
