I can't get into shepherd's pie. My mom used to make it when I was little, and her version was sadly dreadful. To this day I can't stand the idea of ground beef and mashed potatoes in the same dish.

You have to add cheese between the beef and the potato. Can also add sloppy joe mix to the beef.

Looking for advice of kvass
I mostly buy it from the supermarket (in the UK)

My local supermarket has cans of Ulmanlaiku brand
I've also managed to buy it in bottles and once in large 1L but can't remember the brand

I like kvass and would like to try some more
I stopped drinking alcohol some years ago
kvass gives me a similar type of taste, a nice change from soda drinks, and without alcohol

Any recommendations for brands to look out for in the UK?
I will go to my local eastern european corner shop
I'm also willing to have a go a making some at home

>kvass-flavored cola.
Monestary brand is kvass-cola. Don't let jew-mazon shill it to you. All the rest are kvass-cola, too.
>>
So I have been researching online...

As I understand it, all the cans/bottles I'm seeing in the stores are a replica/imitation of kvass
real kvass is fermented, so I need to get it from somewhere (like a brewery) or home brew it myself
is that right?

Looks like I will have to go down the home brew route
Will be a fun learning process

Interestingly, I did find this website online for 'UK first kvass'
https://quasdrinks.co.uk/
This looks good, but very expensive sadly.
Too much for me so I will homebrew.
>>
>>20507152
just make your own you just need old rye and water
>>
>>20508265
>real kvass is fermented,
The stuff in the stores is 0.5% alcohol or less. The fact that they even say that, indicates it includes some fermented product. But beyond that, as others have said, it's usually closer to American-style root beer than the homemade stuff. And that's the key point, many people would say that kvass is most properly something domestic. (Though the same might be said about beer, eons ago before governments began trying to tax and regulate everything.) I'd also add, just because the store-bought stuff isn't the most "authentic", don't let that stop you from enjoying it. It's possible to enjoy both varieties under different circumstances.
>>
>>20507152
You can only make it yourself in the west. Even in Riga there's only a few places where they actually brew it properly.

Smoking tobacco is dropping but smoking weed is rising and seemed to start rising in the 70s. Energy drink consumption is rising although that's more recent and I would imagine even heavy users of energy drink have less risk than heavy alcohol drinkers. Prescription drug use is also going up and starting going up around the 70s and 80s too.

Even habitual potheads smoke less weed than hardcore cigarette smokers. There are cigarette addicts out there that go through 2 packs a day, meanwhile I have never heard of a pothead smoking more than around 3 joints a day. Weed is just too expensive to inhale like that.

Why is the government scared of milk men and bread fags? The price of bread has always been regulated throughout history across most nations. Why are they charging $5.65 for a single baguette, and $5.95 for a gallon of milk?

Just a bunch of meat/dairy lobby propaganda. Soy is fine. You would have to eat astronomical amounts for it to be any issue and phytoestrogens aren't the same as estrogen and consuming it orally breaks most of it down anyway.

>And those fake meats are arguably pretty shitty in comparison to just using plants.
I was just curious as it'd be an easy way to get extra protein and nutrition overall on a vegan diet. But it still didn't seem to be enough. Now I generally just prefer to eat beans as the main part of a meal and having it with a glass of milk to drink. Fake meat stuff doesn't taste that good after a while but I don't seem to get sick of beans.

>>20509752
>Not sure if my body process veggies better than others
That's a possibility. I recently read that some people have certain genes that make them unable to convert beta carotene from plant foods into usable vitamin A as well as others. Even when I was eating lots of sweet potato I was still experiencing some symptoms of vitamin A deficiency.
>>
>>20509775
That's interesting. I know everyone's body are different but I keep learning just how much it can differ. It's good that you keep tabs on it tho. Everyone should do some blood work every once in a while just to keep tabs but it's obviously more important with any diet that eliminate certain groups of food.

Hi pizza patriots! Today I'm gonna review my first Freschetta pizza, the pepperoni rising crust variant. This pizza is made by Schwan's, who also makes Red Baron & Tony's. I found out today this company is in turn owned by the South Korean firm CJ Cheiljedang.

Pulled this pie out of the oven and immediately noticed a red flag, pools of pepperoni grease swimming on the top of the pie. Thankfully, the rising crust mitigated a lot of the potential damage. I think this much grease would've ruined a lot of other pies. A few bites in the middle were a bit overly greasy but it was not repulsive to eat.
This pizza is very saucy. If you like a lot of sauce on your pizza you will probably like this. It's flavorful too, and the pepperonis have the zing I've come to expect from Schwan pizzas. I think the crust is the worst part about this. Despite branding around freshness the rising crust was kind of brittle and not soft enough for a doughy pie like this. If you want a saucy rising crust consider this pie. I'm curious how other Frechetta pies taste, if they're as saucy as this one.

Pizza-chan, you should include what you paid for each 'za in your reviews. With frozen pizza, it re-contextualizes the score a lot.

Freschettas pack a lot of calories due to the crust. It's very thick and doughy, which may warrant either a little extra time or extra heat.

You can stirfry food in a wok directly with no oil, utilizing only the juices in the meat/vegetables or you can flash steam it by stir frying with water. Modern oils simply make it a lot easier and a lot more flavorful.

There's so many varieties of chilies though. Lemon drop habanero have a nice citrus flavour. Ghost peppers have the most lovely passionfruit aroma, but the heat is way too much.
I grow my own variety that is some small brown type (maybe brown jalapeño?) that is really mild but have this amazing sweet, deep chocolaty flavour that works wonders in a lot of dishes.

Some growers have recently started to breed the spiciness out of super hot chilis, making them very mild so you can enjoy their wonderful flavour without any heat. These varieties are new and not really available yet though
