  • Shit the acceleration of public cooking knowledge, ingredient availability, cuisine variety, food media, etc since the 90s has been incredible.

    Yeah maybe the average person doesn’t know how to work with lemongrasss or whatever but you can look it up in a minute and people are doing that.

    The upvoted comment you replied to is so demonstrably false. Sometimes Lemmy is just like Reddit where you come across a topic you’re actually familiar with and see all the bullshit comments for what they are.










  • I feel like we need pinned comment every time this comes up because the mythology around this topic is so pervasive.

    Donating small amounts along with a purchase saves a lot on transaction cost for the non profit organization.

    Stores do not make money offering these.

    If you dislike being pressured to donate at POS, by all means don’t do it, I don’t either!
