duck is ... ehhhh... it's good and it's bad at the same time rofl ...

I need to find a way to cook the metric ***ton of duck breast I have in the freezer.

It needs a damn good marinade. Duck has a very wild taste.
You can marinade stuff before you put it into the GF! If you want,I'm taking a 2 week break from my workout/diet so I can help you eat it :3
Duck is very fatty,cant have it otherwise :<
I thought 'girlfriend' when I read "GF". I usually soak it in salt water overnight, my problem is finding the right marinade. A friend sent me the recipe he uses, I just have to get the stuff to make it.
Whatever she's into. I hear if you buy a girl an expensive dinner in the US she gives it up,so maybe!

It's hard to find seafood that doesn't have a little bit of mercury. I was advised when I was younger to not eat fish more than three times a week on a regular basis because of it.

So long as you aren't fishing behind a nuclear plant, there shouldn't be anything to worry about. Certainly no more to worry about than wtf they feed the fish at the farms.
I guess I'm more open to wild fish since everything we get back home is fresh caught.
Depending where I fish, I'll catch and eat panfish and trout.
Wisconsin, sure.
Michigan, sure.
Ports of Seattle, definitely.
Illinois for catfish have been found to carry diseases and traces of mercury. To me, wild catfish is like eating an Asian Carp, just can't do it.
IL catfish are awesome, you hush your *** mouth. There's a reserve of sorts back home called Site M, tons of lakes and small ponds, most man-made, they are very closely watched for any sort of pollution by the state and county. I can see there being pollution like that in other areas that aren't maintained by the state, but where my family and friends always fish, it's legit. Definitely wouldn't swim there, though, lots of snapping turtles lol

Chicken is better. If by some magic reason I go somewhere and there's no chicken left,my next thing to pick would likely be duck. Although since this year started,I'm getting into steak more,so idk,maybe its changed!

Aye most seafood has a decent portion of mercury in it, stuff like shark and tilefish being among the worst. Pregnant woman are advised to stay far away from a LOT of it. Good news for me is that shrimp are juuust fiiine. Tuna has a small amount, but enough that you really have to limit your intake of it, which is shitty because it's an uh-mazing source for omega-3s and stuff for the babies and uber tasty.

Thats a given,but my point is the extent of our foreign foods here goes is a basic chinese resturant. Or if some place is trying to be really fancy,an "italian" place

I'll give you an example using my town. Not including fastfood places,we have 4 chinese,1 thai,1 thai/chinese and idk if the 1 italian place is even still open any more. Hell for that matter,I think the thai place got closed down and made into a nightclub,and the thai/chinese place might even closed down.

Greasy Asian food must be good for hangovers! I can't believe you only have that there. Is the Italian place even an Italian place or just a pizza place lol

The one right near us shut down and we can't find another close. I keep watching for my chance to steal spices and stuff when we go get Chinese (the stuff that's more legit than just take out) but Ovr won't let me :\

Same! The grocery store chain we use has an Asian section but it's barely more than ramen noodles, soy sauce and cans of water chestnuts. It's seriously pathetic.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
