Chicken and rice… | TheaterFire

I have been told that often they make their food like this on purpose so it’s unappealing to eat so they won’t get food cravings. Food is just supposed to be fuel, not something enjoyable.

I dunno. Just sounds like an eating disorder to me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[-]

I’ve heard this and never understood it because eating bland food like this all the time would end up in me having a massive binge on junk food or takeout that actually tastes good and I’d blow my diet.

Earing disorders aren't rational ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I've met at least one vegan who used her veganism as an excuse to justify an eating disorder before - she wouldn't cook with oil and limited her intake of things like peanut butter and nuts and seeds that are full of healthy fats - and then kept talking about how it was hard for her to stay full. She was underweight and very physically active. Like, being vegan doesn't mean you aren't allowed to use cooking oil and healthy vegans do eat plant-based fats. Our bodies need some fats in moderation - especially with an active lifestyle.

Some people add vinegar or citric to their food to make it taste bad. So they don't crave it

if i was given something i deemed unhealthy i’d sometimes spray it with perfume to make it taste disgusting. i still can’t eat most sweet/ sugary things to this day because it still grosses me out

CoconutxKitten@reddit

That’s because it is an eating disorder

my mum genuinely thinks black paper is spicy. if i cook and i put the tiniest bit of pepper in it she notices and starts panting like i’ve spiked her food with hot peppers.

Skin and whiteness of that chicken making it look like you’re eating sections of an albino python. My god it’s could be a white room torture dish too being so white if the plate weren’t blue

[-]

Repulsive_Field_5311@reddit

You know what? I just suffered a mild food poisoning(lesson for me, eat seafood as fresh as possible), and that kind of meal I'm craving for😁. Plane rise and boiled chicken, with mildly salted chicken stock as a sauce. I'm afraid, that if I add any other flavors, I'm just throw up.((

OP poach that chicken with garlic, ginger, spring onion and good amount of salt and white pepper.

Use the stock to cook the rice (add more salt here)

Serve with sriracha with a squeeze of lemon

Congratulations you have just made ghetto hainanese chicken rice! and its going to be 2000x better than this prison food

[-]

LauraLand27@reddit

Yo I worked in a jail for years and we had gospel bird Thursday. Those inmates cooked up some awesome chicken.

[-]

CoconutxKitten@reddit

There was also a really tasty waterless chicken recipe that was from a Chinese influencer, where you cooked it on top of a bed of green onions & ginger after marinating it in soy sauce & cooking wine

So good

[-]

LauraLand27@reddit

No you didn’t.

[-]

eyeseat@reddit

Most comments are asking for seasoning--which is true--but these are bone-in, skin-on thighs, no? The fat would render its own level of flavor without even salt and pepper and yet the meat is so pale and unappetizing, like you boiled rather than baked. The true self-hatred is in boiling the chicken when you could've had crispy skin and leftover fat to cast over the rice.

[-]

enchantedparsnip@reddit

I’m mad.

[-]

SlayerSEclipse@reddit

I just ate this. Poached/steamed fresh, salted chicken is such a clean taste.

[-]

beegtuna@reddit

Steamed, salted chicken are for the realest chicken aficionados.

[-]

SlayerSEclipse@reddit

Its a staple dish in Asian countries. Tastes like chicken.

[-]

kredtheredhead@reddit

Looks about Midwest. I honestly don't think I am a true Midwesterner. I need my food to have flavor.

[-]

CoconutxKitten@reddit

🤨 Are you comparing herbs, spices, & salt to fucking McDonalds????

[-]

Stardust_Nightmare@reddit

How is that even a comparison? We’re talking about the fact that the food is unseasoned, not that it’s healthy. I promise a little seasoning isn’t gonna kill you.

[-]

Ihaveabudgie@reddit

Ah yes because your only two options in life are bland food or McDonald's

[-]

The_Disapyrimid@reddit

No but a person can season food without it being unhealthy. There things between plain boiled chicken with plain white rice and eating Macdonalds ever day.

[-]

guerrillaactiontoe@reddit

No, but, it's okay to have small indulgences.

[-]

Agernis@reddit

Easy there dude, you almost burned it! Chicken is supposed to still be able to run away when you're eating it with soulless spice intolerant rice

You might just need ginger scallion oil for this.

Question 🙋🏿‍♂️. Why do some white people boil their chicken and call it a day?

[-]

This is eating disorder gym bro cooking, not white people cooking

[-]

GeshtiannaSG@reddit

In Hainanese chicken rice, the chicken is poached and looks just like this, but tastes very good.

[-]

wateryonions@reddit

Guess the same reason black people make comments like this. Not much going on in the brain.

[-]

Sophisticated-Crow@reddit

As a white person, I wonder why anyone would do such a thing. Maybe some people just hate flavor.

[-]

bluizzo@reddit

That and color. You need sunglasses to look at that poor thing

[-]

Sophisticated-Crow@reddit

At first glance I wondered if it was raw.

[-]

hebejebez@reddit

When I do it it’s cuz I’m giving it to my sick dog. This plate is more or less what my dogs get when they have sore tummy, sans chicken skin, but even then sometimes the dogs will get a bit of oregano or something. This is sad

revolutionoverdue@reddit

Is that chicken cooked?

[-]

KogasaGaSagasa@reddit

There is a world where, soaked into the rice and underneath all the white, is a flavorful chicken broth you made while sous vide'ing the chicken at a tender temperature with lemongrass, ginger etc.

I don't think this is that world, but I can convince myself it is if I don't look and think too hard.

[-]

disneylovesme@reddit

Hainanese chicken. I made it last week, I put too much chicken thighs(so I had to cook it longer and do readjustments I wasn’t expecting) in it but still good

[-]

KogasaGaSagasa@reddit

Yeah, gotta be one of my favorite way to have chicken.

You should add some sunshine to your life. Old bay on the chicken is amazing. Soy sauce on the rice. Even add some mushrooms and spinach. Omg your mouth would explode.
