@Azure Mmmmmm, hemp chicken. :9

No, you're absolutely right! I did not understand the delights of non-burnt-as-fuck chicken until I started cooking myself. :) But the looming spectre of food poisoning is such a deterrent in my mind that I still tend to overcook.

@jakebe @Azure Just don't go googling for "medium rare chicken." You might be bemused. You might be horrified. The human race is fascinating in its variety of responses to terrible ideas.

@literorrery @Azure I've seen that, and it IS kind of fascinating when you abstract it. But then you remember people are actually thinking this is a solid way to eat things.

And that's terrible, and it makes me sad.

@Azure @jakebe So much of life today can be explained by that sentiment.
