Lalafell on the Behemoth

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

@A_Wyatt_Man But again, I need to use the big suppliers for the basics. Milk, butter, eggs, cream, produce that isn't in season, fish that can't be found in the fly over zone of the U.S. Again, this is how it works. Want to change it? Figure out a supply chain that works and keeps me open.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

AS a chef that does ordering from different suppliers, including Sysco, you don't know the headache involved here. When you are feeding a few hundred people a day as even a small restaurant, that is an insane amount of food. I could get local beef, for about 2 days. /

[A. Wyatt Mann @A_Wyatt_Man]

@Johnny_Rebb2 The argument isn't that sysco are all pre-prepped, you imbecile. It's that Sysco products are sourced by terrible means. Confined quarters for animals, glyphosate soaked produce, soy-fed cows and chickens, etc.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

@A_Wyatt_Man But again, I can't get local. Every local farm is overwhelmed with what I ask for. I get local produce when it is in season, I have a good mushroom guy that gets me my oyster, lion's mane and trumpet mushrooms and I know a guy that gets morel's in season./

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

@A_Wyatt_Man I'm saying that unless you source all your food yourself, your never going to get what your asking for. It's not financially viable. All beef is finished with grain. All chickens are fed grain. Every farmer uses Round up to control weeds. We built this system and I hate it.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

This is the harsh reality of the food you are eating. Look up those Vital Farm chicken eggs and see how they get away with the "pasture raised" crap. If food was raised the way you want. it would cost 3 times as much, maybe more. As a chef, the best I can do is control what I can

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

But your naive if you think everything you are getting is "grass fed" or "pasture raised". Best you hope for is that that "Organic" isn't just name only. Farmers have finished beef with grain for years. Chickens need feed for protein to make eggs. /

@LucyPyre_ As a chef that has made macaroons, this is true. I have made them stuffed with ice-cream which made them marginal better but normal ice-cream cookies are still superior. Cheesecake filled donuts though... I'll try those next.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

Had a friend drag me out to gather some golden chanterelle mushrooms and touch grass. A very needed decompress day.

Sounds like they want you to enjoy the game. I like them. Have fun with the side content. The 24 man raids for both expansions are a lot of fun.

[Brendzun @Brendzun]

Now then

I've be BANNED FROM PLAYING FFXIV

...MSQ, by my Mentor, as she planned for me to wrap up some side content, finish the Alexander raids and do the Stormblood raid, and some other things before continuing

She knows how I *would* want to play if I had context, thankfully

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

@noinconsistency Seems your chicken is rare. Give a few more minutes to hit mid-rare.

@NachisuMikuX Rent must be due.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

@Awk20000 Patreon is worth about 4 billion. Bricks and Minifigs is maybe 100 million. Guess they can find out what it's like to try and sue a big fish like they have been making everyone else do to them.

[Allen Windsong @AllenWindsong]

Everyone that was laughing at the UMAD thing, this is the reason it was the right choice.

If you beat Kefka P2 without solving the 'puzzle', you get a fake duty complete and are forced to leave the instance!
