Fun Question

@chienfou If you get washed out with this on chopped, you could always just head over to “Forged in Fire”

@therealjrn Forged in Fire…unnnhhh… is that a middle-earth thing?

@chienfou It’s a blacksmith competition show. They have to take iron and steel and make specific edged weapons. Sometimes they have to cut something up, sometimes they have to use some sort of scrap, etc.

Like a cooking competition show only with metal

@chienfou @therealjrn …and then they play “Will it Cut”, and "Will it ‘Keel’ " to decide who won…
Awesome show- even though I have serious doubt about the reliability and objectivity of their tests- which I have seen echoed by some YouTube “experts”- which hasn’t dissuaded me from my assessment.

Back to topic:
If food:
Pork- equal parts of Bacon, Ham, and Hot Ham;
Chili Con Carne;
Pizza w/ Pepperoni and Mozz,
Gala, Honey Crisp, or Crispin Apples.

HIKING! VIKINGS! STRIKE KING [BRAND FISHING LURES]! AWESOME!

@therealjrn

It’s a blacksmith competition show.

Oh, I thought it might be a JRR Tolkien reference…

Canned whole chicken

I’ve never seen this, is it as good as it sounds?

@therealjrn I’ve only seen them on cooking competitions so I have no idea.

@sammydog01 @therealjrn it is not good. I’ve had government subsidised canned chicken before. It’s absolutely vile.

@RiotDemon @sammydog01 @Barney

It’s absolutely vile.

So it IS as good as it sounds!

@tinamarie1974 I’m not complicated. You can have three of my four.

@Barney That’s very generous of you!
@tinamarie1974 can you get by with 7?

@chienfou You made me giggle.

@Barney @chienfou seven should do it…let me think about it.

Wait, what is Barney’s one??

@Barney @chienfou @tinamarie1974

Wait, what is Barney’s one??

THIS.

@eonfifty did he win? What did he think about it?

@tinamarie1974
He came in second. He lost to Gordon Ramsey’s sous chef. He said it was a fun but long day.

“May contain crustaceans.”

@Cerridwyn @mike808
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Crayfish are like mini lobsters.

@mike808 I’m so sorry.

@RiotDemon Wait, am I playing this right?
It’s a list of basket ingredients to make a fun Chopped episode, yes?

@mike808 it says:

If you were no longer a person, but instead were a basket of four secret ingredients on the TV show Chopped, what would you be?

So if you turn your basket back into a person… I’m sorry.

@RiotDemon Do over.
Sprinkles
Jimmies
Ice Cream
Strawberry Preserves

What do I win?

@mike808 @RiotDemon

What do I win?

you get your Tic Tacs and Scope back.

@mike808
BTW… none of these (the 1st batch) scream “made in USA”

@chienfou Per multiple sources, Country Castle is the last factory in the USA who makes Limburger.

But yeah, I couldn’t find any of the others at my local farmers market. Sprinkles?

@llangley I’m looking but I don’t see any scallops

@therealjrn
FUCK. As soon as I got your email I knew there was an autocorrect/typo issue. Thanks
