The comic about talking ducks?

Does everything have to fit the stereotypes and norms of society for you unless there’s a good reason? Maybe the author is vegetarian? Who knows and more importantly, who cares?

It’s a world of diverse life experiences out there.

It might be an anecdote by the author. And it’s not like it stands out as a weird enough thing that it has to be relevant to the plot.

Also their cousin is probably a turkey or something.

You people are extremely defensive.

Yeah I was thinking cousin turkey too. But ham?

They’re ducks.

Miles, Molly is hungry.

Ducks are not vegetarians. They eat snails, frogs, fish, worms, crayfish etc

They also can’t talk. Unrealistic comic smh

How does it take away from it?

You live and you learn!

Maybe practice with a ham during the year to figure cook times out

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Ideal temperature for killing bacteria is more of a spectrum than a hard set number. 165°F is the USDA recommendation because it’s idiot-proof. Guarantees that all bacteria will be instantly killed.

But if you pull the bird at 165°F, you’ve already overcooked the meat and dried out all the juices. Personally I take my poultry out at 150°F, let it sit and naturally rise to 155-157°, and so long as it stays at or above 155 for more than 90 seconds, it’s perfectly safe to eat. The number is more like 45 seconds IIRC but I double it just to be safe. Been doing it this way for over a decade and it’s never gotten anyone sick.

I just watched Babish (dude in YouTube) make a browned-butter roux. What a game changer for gravy.

Do you have a link to the video? or at least a description so that we can find it? I’m always on the lookout for new ways to make gravy … to me it’s the key to any big feast.

My kid was all about that packaged bread today lol

I’m not even vegan or vegetarian, as I said elsewhere in the thread I’m literally roasting a duck today…

You’re the one who came in here with a problem

Mac and cheese is the best Thanksgiving food and you can not change my mind

And I mean a good Mac n cheese made in the oven so its crispy and shit

Is it really stuffing if it’s never used to stuff anything?

Anne

No, technically that is dressing

I agree. Smoked a turkey breast today. 155f, pulled and wrapped in foil and placed in the microwave (as a sealed metal box, not actually used the microwave) for 30 minutes while the sides cooked. You can warm a cup of water before if you really want to keep the heat

Because they’re ducks. Ducks aren’t an evil predator species like humans. The most meat they tend to eat is bugs.
