Wait do people actually not like celery? I eat it as a snack

[–] Drusas@kbin.run 31 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I think it's fairly common to dislike raw celery.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 17 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Put peanut butter in the crack and then it becomes a delicious snack.

[–] herrcaptain@lemmy.ca 31 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Out of context this means something very different.

Instance checks out tbh.

Yep me too, just crunching on raw celery is great with or without Peanut Butter and I also add it to smoothies

"Celery tastes like water" is somwthing people only say because they heard other people say it. It clearly does not

Do I have to fight you? I agree with you.

Rhubarb: now when you bit the water with hair in it, it tastes sour.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

My sole reason for wanting to try rhubarb pie is because of people who've had rhubarb saying how sour it is. I fucking love sour stuff, and celery. So hells yeah I want some rhubarb. I never see it around here though 😬

[–] photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Rhubarb pie is one of my favorite cakes. Try it if you get the chance!

Isn't rhubarb poisonous before cooking

[–] Daeraxa@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Its the leaves that have a lot of oxalic acid, the stems are edible raw, just utterly unpalateable. Although if you have a miracle berry first it is apparently delicious - https://youtu.be/hgvRoCY0hNA?t=10m26s

I don't know how people eat it, it tastes so horrible

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

You my friend are in a genetic minority. Sorry about that.

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago

Celery is delicious and I will die on that hill

Mmmm crunchy water.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 12 points 5 months ago

you can try my shower drain if you are so inclined

[–] Romkslrqusz@lemm.ee 12 points 5 months ago (1 children)

This is only true of the celery you find in grocery stores.

Grow some in your garden, you’re in for a world of flavor you never knew existed

Damnit I wish I had some good shit to flavor my stew with.

Glances at Mirepoix

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's really it, soup and stew. I opt for the celery root, toss it in a bag, call it a day.

I "peel" celery like how I peel a potato. So basically peel off the stringy part. Then I cut them diagonally or at a 45° angle. I then stir fry them with carrots and string peas and baby corn and shallots with some garlic and salt.

It's so crunchy and fresh tasting.

Mom, can I get some sloppy blowjob aftermath?

No, we have sloppy blowjob aftermath at home.

And have it taste like eating shampoo or some other chemical soup not to be left within reach of children.

[–] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Growing your own celery is a game changer. Most produce we get in the store is hopelessly bland.

[–] enbyecho@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Celery loses most of it's flavor quickly after harvest. When it's actually fresh it's extremely tasty.

[–] erp@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Nature's dental floss!

[–] TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The smell of raw celery makes me nauseous, especially when cut. Cooked in things I find the texture off-putting and tasteless, compounding the unwanted crunch added to something that shouldn't crunch.

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Cooked celery is not supposed to be crunchy. Grandma's recipe is cursed. I bet her broccoli is crunchy too, that's why it gets a bad rep.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 6 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Broccoli should be slightly crunchy. Overcooked broc is gross

Even Doctor Who doesn't like it, and he wore celery as a brooch for years.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

cut celery into large chunks, put some olive oil, pop it into the oven and take it back when it starts to char and soft. mix it with mushroom saute (and stir fried beef if not vegetarian)

[–] Nfamwap@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Then take the entire pot, and pour it's straight in the bin.

But have you tried the crunchy water with peanut butter and rasians
