Why can’t broccoli feel more rewarding
Cover it in olive oil and salt. bake at 400 for 20 minutes, and trick your brain into thinking its amazing
🤤
My brain is so gullible sometimes, i also tricked it into a biking hobby by going fast.
So the sense of speed is the fun part?
I kinda tricked myself into liking running by making a game of how long I could put up with the discomfort and feeling out of breath. Now I no longer feel out of breath, and it sometimes feels actually... good?? I don't know if I just became inured to the sensation, or if I'm just fitter.
Love it
Biking can be like a two calorie burn or do it fast (or up hills) and suddenly it’s somethin’ serious. But still pleasant, possibly beautiful…
How about a little sesame oil and soy sauce?
Daamn why weren't you my roomate in college - I got the Dominos-pizza-every-night kind of roomates
Is it a trick if it's really amazing?
For any non-yanks reading: 400 degrees Fahrenheit is about 200 degrees Celsius, and this method is roasting, not baking.
Fuck that. Throw some Velvetta on it and call it in.
Our sauteed with onions really good too. People who don't like greens probably only know them boiled in water which washes the taste away.
Are you kidding? I can always want to eat more broccoli than is advisable. I have to like hold myself back.
For real though, you can "acquire" these tastes.
