Extremely fast packed lunch: cup ramen with 2 Tbsp peanut butter powder thrown in. The PB powder really improves instant ramen — it doesn’t taste that peanut-y to me but it makes the broth a bit creamier. 🍜 #veganfood

My biggest Old Man Shakes Fist at Cloud is that you should as few apps on your phone as humanly possible and we should actively fight against the normalization of needing to download an app to even park in a goddamn parking spot, let alone buy coffee. It's all data breaches and surveillance.

This giant bowl of kimchi squash rice congee will fix me (yes it’s a mixing bowl)

Downtown Kitchener is beautiful but businesses often struggle and it seems to have less foot traffic than Uptown Waterloo. It is way past time to pedestrianize King St. in DTK. What could it hurt to try it for one year?

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan@london.gov.uk · 5d ago

The traffic is gone - businesses are already seeing the benefits. Only a week after we closed Oxford Street to traffic, footfall rose 16% and spending climbed 28% compared to the same period last year.

Current experience of being sick:

It’s amazing how a big scoop of chili crisp makes whatever taste good

“How do I be a good man” is one of the questions I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about and Patrick Stewart was one of the answers. Rest in peace.

#atxxii (correct tournament!) more foodposting: “small vegan” breakfast from The Avenues Cafe. When asked “beans or tomatoes” I happily chose beans

#atxii Nottingham trip foodposting thread: chickpea curry and vegan coleslaw on a jacket potato with a soy cortado from Hipo Coffee. Very tasty, also my god I’m so jet lagged.

apropos of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING my favorite song about being tired: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrrC... (I’m holding out for 9pm then passing out)

Canadian assimilation still a work in progress

I tried something very like this inspired by this post and it turned out fantastic, 10/10 dessert (I used raw walnuts and a small drizzle of maple syrup)

Baked pears with a little pumpkin spice and sugar, vegan yogurt and maple roasted walnuts! #vegan #veganfood #plantbased #bakedpears #fallfoods

The frittata is good and also it’s been very remix-able. I combined a slice with some refried beans and hot sauce to make a breakfast burrito, and I just ate two slices with some kimchi and that was ALSO good (and quite different). #wehavefoodathome #veganfood

Ali@aliaras-em.bsky.social · 3w ago

The frittata, removed to the speed cooling station in front of the fan. Is it good? Who knows! We’ll find out tomorrow

Everything around life with dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten-free, food allergies of all kinds). Random people are more aware, the food is better, and there are way more commercial options.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Even weirder when I did it I let all the potato plants die so it felt like the potatoes were a complete failure and then I started digging below dead plants and behold: Potato, looking like I had just buried it from some grocery store bin

73rd Heavy Artillery "Normielibs"@swolecialism.bsky.social · 3w ago

If you are unaware, to grow Potato, you take a Potato, cut it into about 5 or 6 pieces, plant those pieces about 6 inches underground, about a foot apart from each other, and then come back a few months later and pull out, approximately, 85,000% more Potato

viewing a youtube video of the harvesting process of the humble Potato may convince you that there is fundamentally something unnatural, or supernatural, about the humble spud and how it grows. this is untrue! they are gifts to us by She Who Sleeps Below, The Undying Bride, Despair Of The Underdark

Just put an “it needed to get used up“ frittata in the oven feat. a carton of Just Egg I totally meant to bake a cake with

(I feel like, amongst a lot of #AliVeganPosting , I should acknowledge on this feed that I am not, actually, 100% vegan. I occasionally eat nonvegan foods, mostly baked goods. It‘s a lot easier to be 95+% vegan than 100% for me)

Food planning derailed by the realization that this time next week I’ll be in Nottingham for #ATXII . Gonna have to play some freezer tetris.

Holy shit I have been sleeping on almond croissants

Ok ok I redeemed myself (crispy tofu for salads)

Just fumbled a bean and cheese quesadilla, someone come take my good-at-cooking card

Accidentally made a good Caesar salad dressing when doing a super lazy clean out fridge thing, now I gotta figure out how to replicate it Tried my friend’s tip that you can microwave chickpeas to make them crispy or meaty, worked great: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EU7... #veganfood

Hey 🇨🇦 #vegan folks, especially in Ontario: is there a Canadian soy milk brand that’s *just* soybeans and water, no added anything else?

Ali@aliaras-em.bsky.social · last mo.

Successfully made soy milk yogurt in my instant pot last night! I used a container of EdenSoy unsweetened soy milk + a big scoop of Silk coconut yogurt for the starter. Great texture, tastes good too. Now just need to learn to make soy milk or get a cheaper source
