beccaelizabethI just attempted to make something that was calling itself 'dairy free cheese sauce'.
The nutritional information says it has 0.5g protein per 100g.
What even is in that?
I probably should have read the ingredients first. It's, like, basically cornflour? And some rice flour. And flavouring they're vague about that involves soya.
So I mixed it like the instructions said, more or less, and it's basically, like, whitish soup?
But hey, maybe it has a flavour?
So I poured it on some pasta, and the result is the most not-food food I've seen in a really long time. With a taste that reminds me of... I think bed and breakfast places waiting for boarding school? I knew they didn't use food in their dinners but had not previously encountered the taste elsewhere.
So now I'm giggling at the epic fail of non-food I have a bowl full of.
It's not even vaguely edible, I tried, I had like five pasta shells and it's ... no.
The problem with being away for the weekend is the food shopping routine gets interrupted. Mum wanted to go do something though so she's going to get the Sunday foods. I should probably order the Tuesday foods.
I'm watching MacGyver some more and it's kind of hilarious the number of improvised explosives I've seen him make in a couple of weeks? Like, I'm fairly sure teaching people how to do this at home isn't a good idea? And, also, that mostly trying to copy him would involve fizzles or maybe hurting themselves. But still, this wasn't the 'science can fix it' attitude I had in mind. Science goes KABOOM!
I did not go to the dentist today because cough, but now I do not cough mostly, so I think it was maybe not a good idea to not go. But I couldn't know that in advance and I get quite annoyed at people who go and cough in waiting rooms.
Mum arrived with foods, yaays!
... and then ate the not-food, because she has stronger stomach than mine. She took the stuff that is basically cornstarch, because you never know when you'll need a thickener.
... and the internet needs to know!
